If you have ever read the Wallace D. Wattles book The Science of Getting Rich (published 1910), you'll note that one of the things he writes about is the human desire for increase. I think that what you may be experiencing is a "been there, done that" sense.
That's good. That's VERY good. And I'll tell you why.
You now have concrete (or, rather, brick and mortar) evidence that you can manifest your desires. The house is essentially a metaphor for the human desire to expand. And now that you know, both intellectually and physically, that you can manifest your desire - it's already been proven, because you have the house - there's no doubt that you can manifest the next stage of increase in your life.
In short, the process worked. Now, through your desire to increase, you can continue to use that process to go to the next level.
Not sure if I'm making as much sense here as I'd like, as my mind is going quicker than my fingers. |
Well, first, it is always good to know that I have company.
And thanks for reminding me how far I've come and how far we all go. I suppose it is wrong of me to look around discontent when my situation isn't really all that bad. I also need to learn from to draw from the power I do have, as opposed to beating myself up for the things I feel I am lacking.
I do feel an emptiness with these material things and I very much like Jim's suggestion of working on personality traits, things which make me feel better, more optimistic, more confident, and of which, there is no plateau.
