Learning to direct energy and will your intent to do as you want is something that has been the hardest for me personally to learn over the years and typically is for everyone as as well
I had to start somewhere like everyone else and learned things along the way as I got better. Sometimes pitfalls happen and I still bounce around problems, but always recognize it takes decades for one to properly train and discipline themselves to totality with consistent effort and training, there is no limitation to learning.
I want to impart some advice from my own experience over the years in how I've improved my means to direct energy and what I've learned to get better with it.
The number one mistake pretty much everyone will do when directing energy and intent, is that they are trying to. The very second you will yourself in the context of an 'attempt' or in 'trying' to direct energy with the mindset that you have to make effort and fight against a force to do so... you shoot yourself in the foot.
The astral is the thought-plane, every whim of our every thought and intent, even subconscious and unintentional will react immediately. When you want to focus on a desire, your immediate thought is that you need to focus, so you immediately equate this need to having to put in effort and fight to do this, to 'try' and focus. This kind of thinking is what actually creates a barrier to fight against because you subconsciously believe there is one there when there never was to begin with.
When I'm actually fighting against an opposite force in energy, it doesn't actually feel like a blockage or wall, yes it can feel like a tall and stronger opposing energy in front of me but I don't focus on that fact or the fact that something is in my way, I focus all of my energies and will simply on my own weapon/s against it. I enforce this weapon as my sole point of focus where all of my energies and power is going in the intents against the oppositional force I am "fighting" until it is inevitably overpowered by my own stronger utilized intents in weakening and breaking down the other as a separate entity.
The second you focus on the concept of 'barrier', 'blockage', 'something is pushing back against me', 'I have to fight this', then the accompanied thought is 'I'm being pushed back' 'something is in the way of my energies' 'something is stopping me'... and this reacts in the will of your directed intents by your energies halting in reaction to your own thoughts, to behave as if there is a barrier, to react as if they can't push through whatever is in their way... so they are not as effective and can even be halted entirely as doubts and fears mount from the idea of this 'barrier' when nothing was actually pushing back to begin with. Our directing of energies and intents are empowered by our beliefs because they are directed by our thoughts, so they will react accordingly to, yes, even the subtlest of them.
When two sentient beings are having a psychic battle, it's not a matter of 'trying' to overpower the other, it's a matter of which one is simply stronger in their energies and overall power to overwhelm the other. The two same polarities of a magnet do not fight against each other by 'trying' they can only ever be what they are, so in the context of winning a 'fight' one side just has to give off a stronger charge than the other and be able to do more than the other. The drive of the intent is only as strong as both the confidence and power of the wielder, the stronger force.
Energies and energy barriers/shields/blockages are stagnant forces on the astral, they have no sentience, they cannot gain power of their own accord, they do not motion or move on their own, they are as still and unreacting as a boulder blocking your path, they can't fight back, they can only ever be 'bigger'. So in the context of 'fighting' them like say breaking a blockage in one of your chakras, just like the matter of psychic warfare between two sentient beings, it's the matter of the stronger force that overpowers the other until the other is broken down and no longer existent/is destroyed/is banished...
However in this case you are the only sentient being against a nonsentient force, thus you can overpower the energy by increasing your own and your weaponized intent against it, even if it just takes gradual time to raise those energies and direct it in opposition, and the nonsentient force isn't going to suddenly realize it's being attacked and try to defend itself by trying to raise it's own forces against yours, that blockage in your chakra isn't gonna practice self-preservation, it's going to eventually be overwhelmed and overpowered by your own energies being used in opposition to it, weakening and dwindling more and more each day/session until it is no longer existent. Sure it may have started off as this 'big bad wall' in front of you that was probably overwhelming in appearance at first when you 'looked' upon it, but this is nothing more than looking upon that big boulder in your path, it can be broken down and chipped away into nothing over time and it's not going to bite back at you as you do so.
The difference between a boulder in your path on the physical realm and a boulder in your path on the thought-plane is that the one on the physical realm isn't going to enforce against your pickaxe as you chip away at it to break through to the other side even when you think it will. The boulder on the thought plane will however react to your thoughts, if you think it's 'fighting back' or 'enforcing' itself against your pickaxe, then your pickaxe isn't going to do anything... and you end up blaming the boulder for this believing it's stronger than your weapon and is shielding itself against it, but the boulder is literally doing nothing against you, it can't, it's literally just a rock... it's all your own thoughts and beliefs.
In the similar words of Morpheus, don't try to do it... do it.
