What she's been doing is writing content articles for websites, 60 or 70 hours a week, and that pays her $800 clear income a month. She loves doing this writing and she loves her friends and her family and where she lives and she has lots of books to read and woods to hike in and a couple of dogs and she is the happiest she's ever been.

But she's still making $800 a month.

What I often see around here when we get to this point in a discussion, is how a person can cut their expenses in order to live on $800 a month. Where I'm always wanting the discussion to go, is how to increase income to $1600 a month. Then we get lots of stuff about feeling abundant and not focusing on lack. But if this person doesn't do something else, change the old habits and actions, or unless some money falls out of the sky, she's going to continue creating $200 debt each and every month.
there cannot be enough discussion about limiting beliefs. If you believe you need - then you'll need. If you believe you cannot make enough to live comfortably no matter what you've spent - then you won't. If you worry over not having enough, then you won't have enough.

how to bump the income? be the person who makes $1600 on the inside - your inner state of being must become one with the type of person you believe makes $1600 a month from doing that work. If your inner state is that of someone making $800 a month and spending $1000 then you'll never get over that hump and live abundantly.
