Phew! Writing that--as well as writing the other posts I wrote today--has been quite an effort.
I'd be quite interested to know how effective they were, so feel free to let me know via PM, a reply, or otherwise.
I'll also add that, somehow, I managed to solve one of my problems by doing no direct work on my problem and doing the complete opposite: writing posts for other people about their problems.
(I think it has to do with the subconscious, but perhaps the LoA as well. I still can't really see where the subconscious ends and the LoA begins. I think I need a new paradigm to explain it. Probably do-able easily enough, but I've got enough on my personal development plate for the moment.)
