what is your '3D' job/career? and will these 'jobs' things change in the near future?

pss: And psychics always get work as well (again...they have to have references that are exceptional). People always want card readings, palm readings etc. And pay well. Or astrologists (even bad ones earn some).

Of course that is hard to learn this art as it is more a gift....though people still insist that classes help.....for me that just made me more confused (I mean it is extremely ....different type of education that all the rest combined). I have become intuitive....over the last 17 years of energy work I do on my own, but not in a way I can earn an income (I mean I don't feel that the reason I now have a partial intuitive side now has to do with earning income and since it is innate...it works on its own....and it comes with a price....so I don't want to use it to earn an income....even if it could even be turned into something that could).

@eileenrose : Hi Eileen, thanks for your comment-post.
unfortunately, since we're still living in this "money" world, you need money to keep surviving (to eat, basic needs etc),
so how now do you get the money to survive from, if I may ask?
thanks~

Hi Niki, I’m new here to PA, nice to meet you, and happy birthday! I felt compelled to respond to your post as I feel in the same boat you’re in. However I don’t need my parents to make me feel like a loser. My current job is in IT as a technical analyst. The only thing I’m thankful for about it is the decent pay. But lately I’ve been really feeling like the job is literally sucking the soul out of me. What I do has zero meaning, and to spend half my day at it, well to quote the movie Office Space: “human beings weren’t meant to sit in little cubicles staring at computer screens all day.”

Future plans: Earlier this year, I started training to become certified in shiatsu. Is it my ‘soul purpose’? I have no idea. I’m a “constant learner” like you, and am also interested in myriad of things…how does one choose what path to embark on at this moment? Eh, guess I need to work on my intuition a bit. I’d love to be a writer too, but get lost as soon as I try to choose what to write about! Someday I’ll figure it out.

If you have musical talent AND a passion for it, then I think you really know what you need to do! I agree with others on the thread, follow your heart, don't listen to anyone else.

As far as your last question, “and last but not least, will these whole 'jobs' things CHANGE in the near future?” Change how? As in go away? Unfortunately, not likely. Unless in the near future we’re all able to instantly manifest food in our pantries, new clothes, etc., if with our minds we’re able to repair the roofs over our head, and we can teleport to different places with our minds, we will still need currency to purchase and some form of vehicle to get from one place to another. If that is not what you meant by jobs ‘changing’, then please elaborate. I wish I had more advice for you, but from the responses I’ve seen from others here, you’re in good hands.

Oh, and WhiteCrowBlackDeer: I have the book ‘The Eight Pieces of Brocade’ by Dr. Yang Jwing-Ming sitting on my bed right now...it’s required reading at my shiatsu school. How wonderful that you learned from a master!

Take care,
Meg

But,...isn't that's what I've heard in this forum (and many other 'new age' , 'spiritual', 'Truth-seeker' forums) ! ie : they often said that you/we all can surely "manifest" things (or "EVERYTHING!!"..they said...in New-Age manner..!) into reality ? ........yeah right!

I surely still can't 'manifest' -like you said above very well- 'basic' things/needs like money, foods, clothes, and roof,... let alone to 'manifest' my super-VIVID Imaginations (or shall I say, as an artist/musician myself: a whole Universe of IMaginations!) like: Pandora, magic, fairies, spirits-techniques, and castles in the sky!

so, have ALL these people been lying to me?....

see,...NOT everything can be manifested into this boring, mundane, routine everyday's reality/real-world , right??... *sigh* all those human's made-up wishful-thinking/fantasy stories.... :/

Niki,

There are a few threads on Avalon covering the subject of manifestation, law of attraction etc. Here is a post I made in one of the ones that aim to debunk the idea.

Posted by Anchor (here)
People who have not experienced the truth of the principles of the "Laws" of Attraction, Allowance etc which can powerfully transform your reality, are in a fix.

These people have to justify their position and beliefs and make it people like "me" who have the problem.

And you know what?

I feel a bit sorry for them.

All they need to do is take a genuine leap of faith and let go of thier self perpetuating dogma, learn to meditate and look inwards to the truths beyond science - and truly wake up.

These people simply cannot debunk my personal experience.

It is sometimes funny watching them try though - especially efforts like the one in the OP.

"So what the blazes kind of delusion is this?!"

Precisely

If you feel in an open-minded mood...

Here is an excellent introductory perspective:

Here is an old debate that covered the topic quite a lot:
https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...-manifestation

Confusion is inevitable, the path is individual. Only generalities can be spoken.

Sorry for the links if they make you sigh and go - Oh no, not again

Happy hunting.

I am a Professional Messenger and travel frequently. Previously held a handful of Senior Management positions that were sickening to me on every level. Nikki, it is important that you choose your path by following your soul's mission. If whatever you are doing affects your gut in a negative way, get out of it. When you remember what you are here to do you will feel a warmth in your heart. Your parents' wish for you is a fear based desire. They are victims of oppression and surpression. When they see that you are thriving and happy, they will concede to your wisdom and perhaps even follow your path. You may be here to teach them.

Thank you, Anchor, for responding to Niki's response to me on my behalf. No really, she and I are in the same boat of sorts re: life path issues, and after the day I had at work today, I would not have been much inspiration at all. I love the idea of manifestation, I just can't get it to click...yet. I took a quick look at the links you provided (yay Bashar!), and will return to them more in depth later tonight, but I have to go to my meditation group now.

And to Niki: Hang in there, sweetheart.

Don't worry, you'll get there!

How can we develop the will necessary without faith that it is worth the effort?

How can we develop faith without the will to even try to do that?

Taking a leap of faith is never going to be easy.

Most of us have been programmed to enjoy the comfort of certainty.

Most westerners are bought up with miracles being for stories and not reality - and overlook many of the ones that have happened in their own lives, written off as coincidence.

Yet the clues are there.

Willing yourself to even try to do something that you are convinced "must be futile or impossible" feels so stupid it is an inhibitor.

No-one is watching but you.

Let the inhibitions fall away.

In performing conscious manifestation you need deployment of will and faith in good measure - and also a certain amount of practiced mental discipline - which is why I keep going on about meditation as that is the best way I know to acquire the mental "visioning" skills.

Its not easy, until it is... at which point you may find you don't actually do much of it - because along the way, you may well gain a more deep appreciation of why the mountain is where it is, and even if you have faith the size of a grain of mustard and could move it easily, you don't.
