Nic,
I had this epiphany simultaneously after reading this:
Tao of Prosperity How to Drop Struggle and Embrace Abundance
How to drop struggle and embrace abundance:
"the hardest thing for his students to give up was struggle. It gives meaning, and when you drop it, you have to create your own meaning instead, out of nothing but your being. "
I have been all about the struggle. You don't need the struggle. After I realized this, I became immediately relaxed and free. I can still achieve, but without the struggle.
Thank you so much for your wonderful comment!
