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?

I am hearing a lot of limiting thoughts there. I think that qualifying your wishes feeds the troll. It makes him say, "See? You can't do whatever you want. You have limits and have to learn to work within them." But look around. People do amazing things all the time. My daughter learned to ride her bike in one go, BTW. She was determined to keep up with her brother. The first time we took her training wheels off, she rode off on the bike like she had been doing it all along. She had the bike for about a week and didn't like the 'baby' wheels. She was five, after all. So, don't assume that you can't just take off your training wheels and do any damn thing you choose.
Trolls are sneaky SOB's. They can speak in very reasonable voices. They sound like logic and reason and practicality. In the end, a troll adds up to a limiting and therefore negative feeling or belief. Do you feel GOOD when you think about breaking your goal down into $25,000 chunks? Or do you feel practical?? If you don't feel GOOD, it is a troll.
Which do you want? A million dollars or $25,000? If you want a million, intend a million. When you get into trying to work out the 'how's' you are taking on the Universe's business. You mind your business. Form clear intentions, maintain high vibrations and watch out for the opportunities the Universe will put your way which may require action. Act without limiting beliefs.
Honey, screw the troll and what he thinks he can do. He isn't you, anyway. He is the sum total of all the 'no's' you have heard your whole life. So, forget that. Stuff that sucker in his cave and shoot for your million dollars.
