Yes you're correct Shannon, I don't get the "becoming" part. Everything you've written here confirms my own thoughts on this.
I think my biggest issue with LOA is I have trouble making the jump. But even the smallest jumps seem impossible to me. That's my biggest issue. I've read tons of books on this stuff and it's like most people just choose and it happens. I have trouble "becoming" because I can't even wrap my head around the possibility of it. Even something like having a job that pays well and I'm good at, something so minor seems hard to even imagine. I try to keep things small and believable, but it's such a small pool to draw from.
So I guess my question is, how do you bridge that gap? I feel like I'm starting so low. Even with all the subs I've run, there's a persistent part of me that holds onto a limited perspective of what's possible. I mainly want to leverage the power of LOA to build a life I can be happy with. But even with all the changes I've made and how far I've come, it feels like I barely moved with regards to what I really want in my life.
I feel like it is mostly fear. But it's very frustrating feeling stuck and that fear getting worse and worse. To the point where I almost freeze where I am and if I have a small sliver of some kind of security I cling onto it even if it won't give me the happiness I desire.
