What a well-written and thoughtful post. Thank you.
This morning I had the intention to read something really useful about I-M.
I agree that wanting to manifest money by winning the lottery means you're not as open to other channels in your life.
I feel I don't have much to offer the world. I really enjoy certain things, like playing viola, but I feel like I missed my chance to go professional with that.
When I think about what I want to do with my life, it usually involves art or performance, but then I say to myself that I don't have the skills, or that the demand isn't there, or that it's hard to make money as an artist or performer.
