That answers a question for me, too.

I had a reading with Erin awhile back and she told me that I was no longer a vibrational match for my current career path (I'm working on a Ph.D. in a scientific field). She said that my guides were saying that I should be working with the people I'm helping, and to remember that I am a helper.

Well, it's easy for me to see why I would be a vibrational match for helping people: my main (and not unsubstantial) commitment outside of my doctorate program involves leading seminars to people and helping them get what they want out of life. The more I do of that, the more I seem to be a vibrational match for working directly with people to help them. But - similarly - I've noticed that the more time and thought I spend in my degree field, the more I seem to be a vibrational match for that.

Erin's not the first person who has told me I'm meant to work with people. I'm definitely taking that into consideration when I imagine where I'd like to be ten, twenty, thirty years down the road. But it seems to make sense to finish a degree that I'm already more than halfway through, and to use that in my future endeavors even if I don't stay in scientific research. And in the meantime, I'll have to keep myself a 'vibrational match' for the work I'm doing.

Of course, I say that, and I've been recently very frustrated with things on that front. Recently my boss has been pretty unhappy with me for lack of progress and results, and it's frustrating, because I've been working so hard and redirecting so much of my focus to that end. It seems like just working isn't going to get the job done - I have to be willing to really fight for it - and after realizing that, I'm left with a question about whether or not I am willing to fight for it. Currently, I'm working on a limiting belief I have - that essentially I look at school like it's already going to be a failure no matter what I do - and I think that will make a big difference in all of this.

So, no easy answers. But I suppose life wouldn't be much fun if there were. ;>
