Ser,
The will to bestow is something that is in the domain of the upper worlds. In fact in this world, it is by nature impossible to bestow. This entire world is made of a matter that is a desire to receive from the smallest particle to the largest.
We can accustom ourselves to it through exercises and behaviors like you are describing, but like puberty which changes a persons thoughts and feelings, spirituality is a transition a person goes through.
The difference is puberty is automatic and bilogical. The entrance to spirituality requires our efforts and participation.Seth@KabU

Here is a wonderful blog post by Rav Laitman about this.

Natu,
This is a gradual process and like all of our senses it happens though measuring opposites. We don’t have now a sense to perceive the spiritual light, but we do have our corporeal senses and with them we can feel more and more how opposite we are from altruism, how we cannot escape from our will to receive. Precisely this revelation leads to the desire and awakening to escape it and then a shift happens.
It is all according to our desire.

Enrique,
Slowly slowly by studying correctly and following the advices you will advance.
However if you have some normal corporeal problem you must deal with that like a normal person. If you break your arm you must go to a doctor. If you have some emotional or psychological issue, you must seek out people who can help you with that.

Shadrak,
In order to understand the worldview of kabbalah, you need to get very clear about how these forces operate.
There is one, complete and integral force that operates all of reality. There are infinite number of forces that are responsible for each and every thing.
For example if you want to successfully launch a rocket to space, you are dealing with hundreds of different parameter including the the gravity of earth, the gravity of other planets, resistance, force, etc. You can call gravity “Satan” since it pulls you down and you are trying to go up, but a smart, experienced scientist relates clearly to all these forces and parameters and learns to work with them.
If you want to understand your desires, there is clear science about that and we will also study the root of it all much more in further lessons.
First of all if you don’t want to do something, then hang out with people who also don’t want to do that and also don’t get in close proximity to the thing you don’t want.
What we do on the spiritual path is raise the importance of spirituality and share that with each other so that that is more important than other desires and then you are not fighting other desires.
No one has to tell you not to play with baby toys. Why? Because other things are more important to you now.
