A Change of Perspective
While my perspective has changed throughout my life, I still need a change of perspective today.
It is all too easy to look at what you do not have.
The things that you have not yet accomplished, the ongoing processes and insufficient results, and on and on.
Despite my philosophy and conscious reality creation work, I still find myself looking at what I haven’t got yet.
For example — I’m still not earning the kind of money I believe that I should be via the articles I post to Medium. Despite having an excellent number of followers — my earnings in no way reflect this.
My novels are not earning the kind of money I think they should be. I am not looking to become a bestseller, yet — but earning a reasonable living off my work shouldn’t be too much to ask.
Let’s call a spade a spade. While money isn’t exactly lacking in my life, the numbers — to be more comfortable and secure — are not what I desire for them to be. This tends to be a regular source of stress and occasional strife in my life.
But this focus on lack, scarcity, insufficiency, and what I do not have doesn’t serve me. In fact, it never has, and it never will.
