I've missed a lot on this thread .

However, unlike you, I do get concerned sometimes about what happens afterward when the money runs out considering I'm now going to refuse to take a job that doesn't align with what I love.
I have had fleeting moments when I have felt worried about that, but I feel like I am focussed on trying to heal myself (and cultivating things I like, most of which will be on my website in some form), but I also have made a vision board which I look at every morning and I remember why I'm healing myself and that draws my attention to my current goal, to heal myself and build a solid foundation to myself so that I will stop falling apart, and so that everything I build in my life will stop crashing down on top of me .

Do you have a vision board seeker? Do you have any idea about the sort of job you want? For me, I just have a vague idea, but it seems to take more shape as the weeks pass. The vague idea I had is represented on my vision board.
