Thanks for the feedback Angela, Erin and Renie. I personally like the Troll analogy..lol

I'm also wondering how realistic I need to be. If the troll comes out when I try to manifest $1,000,000 should I try to manifest something more bitesize like $25,000. Even as I type this I hear the troll saying, "That's hard but okay, try it".

Or, am I limiting myself and still a "slave" to the troll?

My guess is (and I'm new to this) that it is like learning to ride a bike or walk. If I have never ridden a bike in my life and say, "I know I can do this on the first try" and visualize to my heart's content, I'm still going to fall off. However, if I start with training wheels and build up, I'll eventually learn to ride a bike effectively.

What I'm getting at is I should stay positive. Try manifesting things that are challenging but not impossible to the troll. When he does come out say, "I understand, but back in your cave. I'm going to manifest this." As the process continues, I can expand and enlarge my manifestations. I'm thinking that over time the troll will begin to hibernate and rarely wake up.

Also..and a complete aside. Does manifesting work for addictions? I have an addiction that is not substance related, not gambling or anything that I have spent money on, but it is an addiction. I want to stop because it sucks up hours in my week on something worthless. What are your thoughts on this?

Thanks,
Manta
