I felt GREAT for years. From 2003 through 2007 in particular, I felt GREAT. I mean, in-love great. Giddy, happy, positive, fabuloso wonderful. In the meantime, I created a big mess.

That's a fact.

What ciarac wrote there could've been me last year. I don't want ciarac to be sitting there a year from now unable to afford web-hosting.

I started in the wrong forum. I thought I needed IM and LoA. I already had IM and LoA. What I needed was Biz & Financial. I needed someone to explain to me some ways I could make some real money. Not how I could feel great and visualize abundance and do what I love and focus on what I think I want from money when really what I want is the feeling that I think will come from acquiring money.

No. What I needed was money. And I needed to learn how to earn a lot more money than I was earning. What I needed was to learn how to create further streams of income because I didn't make enough on eBay. If I had learned that last fall, I wouldn't be facing this extreme uphill climb right now. That's all.

Paul (iampaul99), who has become very financially successful especially as compared to where he was some years back, and is doing very well with his blog (How to Make Money Doing What You Love) has stated flat-out that it isn't all about feeling good. It is about being able to believe it and visualize it and know that it will happen. He didn't get much of a response when stating that it isn't all about feeling good. Sometimes it's actually about feeling disgusted.

Cylon, it's interesting that we disagree on this point, because that book that you recommended 18 times

has given me more focus on what I am saying here. It's about facing reality and knowing that you can change it. His emphasis is on health -- mine at this moment is on financial abundance. It's not about feeling great and wonderful and abundant, and running up your credit cards to $12,000 because you know that something will happen and you'll always be provided for. Dr. Dispenza states full-on that we need to face what has brought ourselves to this point, to be fully conscious, consciously unskilled, before we can become consciously skilled. That book has really hit home for me. I always remember Wayne Dyer's comment, "In order to do something you've never done before, you have to become someone you've never been before."
