Why didn't you just LISTEN?
Damn! What was happening yesterday???!!!! I was supposed to be listening but whenever people pushed I just pushed back! Should have listened, should have looked inside, should have felt for opportunity! Damn! But when someone pushed, I just pushed back....
Sorry, just venting frustrations! Back to more practice........
Oh yeah, there is a nice article by Li Ya Xuan here http://qi-journal.com/Taiji.asp?-token.SearchID=Li+Ya+Xuan

You have nothing "inside". So you will push back.
Why you need to listen? What do you want to do next? What can you do next?
Think about it. Don't just push!
Ha true. Nothing inside so I will push. True.
So should I wait until I have something inside before I push? As in when I gain some chi or something from my form before I start push hands.
I listen for the direction of his intention. After knowing that, I would want to avoid coming into direct contact with it or ride on it to try to make it go in another direction.
That I can do if his intention is behind mine.
But it is true, without anything inside, all my teacher can tell me is take your time. These kind of things don't come so fast.
Thanks for your advice. Please correct me if you find any mistakes. I am still very much a biginner and would appreciateyour comments.
Thanks you.
