The problem with your approach is that it seems to be rather fear based, and will consequently tend to instill fear in those who believe that you actually know what you're talking about (not that I'm implying you don't, but I get the feeling you may be less knowledgeable than you let on). I am interested to know the extent of your experience with OBEs.
Not everyone begins projecting with fear based beliefs. In fact, many may acquire such negative beliefs by reading various sources and taking advice from, well, people like you (no offense), who give advice in an authoritarian manner without the experience to back it up, and put emphasis on negative aspects of the experience.
When I first began projecting I didn't read one piece of literature on the subject, besides the method of inducing an OBE. I believe this is one of the main reasons why I succeeded so easily. I had very little false belief going into the experience, and did not expect anything bad to happen, and therefore nothing bad did happen. Had someone told me I needed to rid myself of fear and beware of the terrifying state of paralysis, or that it would be damaging to begin projecting "too quickly" (sound familiar?), this itself would have generated fear and stunted my growth and progress.
Being just a beginner yourself, do you really think you are fit to be giving other beginners advice in the authoritarian manner you are? I recommend offering suggestions based on your personal experience, while realizing that you yourself still have much to learn, not everyone will experience things the way you do, what works for you may not work for others and visa versa, and that with more experience you may change your beliefs about certain ideas you now consider to be "knowns."
