In general I agree with Ali. I think he's laid out a lot of really great points. What was really helpful for me was to realize that there is absolutely nothing derogatory about being skeptical. A skeptical attitude is a healthy one- all it means is that you are not open to changing your core beliefs instantly, nor are you closed off to accepting new ideas. You take in everything (ideally), and see what actually works.
When it comes to resonance, I generally feel this is more appropriate to the area of spiritual evolution. Not so much science or other areas that are governed by verified facts, math bases theories and so on. Resonance is fair game for spirituality though, because spirituality is in itself very, very personal and subjective. In that light, yes, resonance may be your best tool in finding what works for you. I place emphasis here, because what works for you will not work for everyone. And although this causes many conflicts between people, it's actually really how it's supposed to be, I think!
Here is an amazing discussion about skepticism, cynics, true believers, "debunkers", and other such things. I've posted this on the forum before... For me, it was transformational, I hope it helps!
