Everybody I know, knows I am having all these money issues. Why? Because I tell everybody. After the furnace debacle, I've really been telling everybody.
What would happen if I moved to a new town and went around telling everybody I don't have any friends? And don't know how to make friends. And have been having no end of trouble making friends. And I don't know what to do about it. And so on.
I wonder how easy it would be to create friendships if I did that?
Maybe I need to begin by projecting an attitude of abundance and confidence, rather than an attitude of lack. It seems very fake to me, because I will be lying. Yet if I went somewhere to meet new people and I was really nervous about it, I would not go there and act nervous -- I would go there and act confident, even if I would be lying. That would not bother me one bit!
It didn't even bother me to make up an imaginary friend Pam. That really was lying.
But to stop talking about money issues and instead project abundance -- why does that feel fake?
