Many people find it very easy to be passionate. That can be a good thing, when it directed towards good, but it can also be neutral, or harmful - for instance, when the passion is for something harmful (e.g., an addiction to illegal drugs, smoking or alcohol, or to bigotry).
A passion for doing good can lead to hypocritical condemnation of others - what we used to call holier-than-thou, now sometimes covered by “toxic positivity”.
In fact, that particular flaw is as blinding as bigotry (bigots are never clear thinkers: their pre-judging requires ignoring good evidence - or adhering to bad - in order to come up with positions that are illogical [along the lines of “all X are bad because Y”], so they are clearly unable to use their observation and mental faculties properly).
A variation of that which causes particular interferences with doing this sort of work is assuming a certain region or nation has an inclination towards being a certain way.
The best example of that I can think of the USA, where people seem to be so caught up in the myth of US exceptionalism that they don’t recognise they’re not. On the other hand, when there has been a problem president (a Bush or a #45, for instance), the strongest and most effective opposition to that President has been in the USA.
Another example is what could be described as a serious problem is “white saviour mentality” (or colonialism or just as white supremacism) - e.g., stupid assumptions that, say, in Africa people there know what is best for them (as an example, see here).
The reality that people know what they most need is why I support Give Directly.
This is also why, after disasters, relief organisations ask for money, not what people stupidly think would be good for victims on basis of what donors think situation is like. Sending comfort toys for children is less likely to be as important as addressing shelter needs - which vary from place to place, and season to season, just as sending tins of food to people without can openers or ways of cooking them is useless - not to mention that the food is probably so unappetising the recipients may not be able to eat it.
Another example of not making pre-judgements is Antarctica and the Southern Ocean is another. Winter in those regions - particularly the Southern Ocean - is a time of activity and life, and not necessarily negative as warmth-loving people might assume.
I have to admit, despite loving cold and rain, I was surprised when I first noticed the higher energies in those regions during winter, but I did some research and realised what was happening. Now, if the energy is low in those areas during winter, I know something harmful is happening.
Note that: I was surprised at detecting high energy, but I did detect it.
I was able to do that because I strive to have an attitude of curiosity (“I wonder what this number will be like this week?”) rather than expectations, and that is the point of this lesson:
strive have an attitude or curiosity - burn to learn, without any superciliousness, arrogance, or smugness: be open and honest in your passions.
PS - I have just come across a set of online training courses by a well-known “remote viewer”. I don’t know how much they cost, but there do appear to be online targets that people can be assigned to “remote view” and then get feedback on their accuracy. For those who are on their own, it may be worth checking out. (I also dug out [I bought it back in my get-hard-copies-of-books days. . . SIGH] and re-skimmed the book “Remote Viewing Secrets”, by Joseph McMoneagle [pub. Hampton Roads, 2000, ISBN 978-1-57174-159-2, Amazon], and that is also an excellent book for developing these types of psychic skills.)
