Having a difficult time balancing

[TheReason]

For the last about 2 to 3 weeks I have felt really off. I love my job, because it's been apart of my entire life and I put my whole heart into making it successful. However, as of late I've been feeling distant toward it. Like I just can't focus as well, or get into it like I used to. Of course this isn't the first time I had this happen, but I just don't know how I'm going to continue to focus. I can't help but feel pulled toward helping others again through readings and such. I did this about a year ago, but finally had to quit due to work-overload - my brain couldn't do it all. This isn't me complaining, because I feel truly blessed for what I have, but it's so difficult to focus on money, money, money. Because money is what the world revolves around. It's exhausting! Anyway, since of course right now I could not leave my successful business behind (and wouldn't, that's crazy), I can only look toward the future and believe that all will turn out as it should. I can feel the shift happening, and truly I'm happy. I just hope a day sometime soon will reveal itself without money, hate, or sadness - a day when we can all be love. Perhaps in another realm.

I have also been more sensitive the last few weeks, and can not take any type of conflict - I bend way to easily right now just so I don't have to feel the negative energies people put off. Does anyone feel that?

Love & Light.

In a word, yes. Mine started seriously in ernest near the beginning of the year. Long awful story. The part about feeling distant towards it, yes. And I understand this part:

Yep, I understand this.. that's essentially what happened to my job/2nd business too..

I just don't care anymore.. don't want to do it.. doesn't make any sense (logically or ego'lly) but what you gonna do?

No heart, no work!

You have to do work where your heart is.. maybe you should work on making money doing readings.. if that's where your heart is.. do e'm for free for a while.. get to you feel confident and worthwhile to charge the $$$ you need than charge it.. (hey, just a idea/option) for your consideration..

If the universe is giving you these signals.. and your posting this message.. than you are saying.. I'm available for a change.. ask the universe to deliver that change.. look for it.. and you will have it..

Life doesn't force us to do the things we don't want to do.. only EGO does that..

Your ego was right here in this thead.. and it said.. "I'm afraid of no money" and I understand that fear.. I'm just saying.. change that fear.. and that's the solution to your problem..

I feel or know this is a difficult time for emotions running wild in others and at some point for us as well... Just relax and don't allow the mind to overwhelm you by running wild saying things like you need to be doing this and that... In everything there has to be an even balance.. so if you can help others with your gift in spare time do it.. because that really is your main job but, as you said the world requires money and thats why the world will have you lost and confused, tired everytime always attempting to pull you from the real goal.. Stay Blessed.. Over the next two weeks just relax, meditate and continue to focus on the good things.. You have a good life.

All the Glory Belongs To God Forevrer!

Thanks everyone. I will keep all of your thoughts in mind!

Hi, I think I understand where you are coming from. I also find at the moment that I feel a bit confused in what I should be doing. My whole working career has been working towards something, but recently I'm unsure if it's for me now as I'm starting to see things differently. The only thing is, that it took years to become successful in what I do and a lot of hard work... I couldn't keep it going (also last year) and it's amazing how quickly it's all crumbled.

I'm now trying to work out where I go from here and not coping too well having to lean on my husband for money, when I've been so used to my own. I don't know where to go from here. I'm also truly blessed with what I do have, but finding it difficult to find my new path. It's hard to feel your heart, when this world relies on the money side in order to progress and live from.

I am such a creative person, but I see so many artists struggle, even more so in this financial climate. I suppose it's taking the chance once you do know what it is that YOU want.

Best of Luck! x

I've been going through the same since the beginning of the year. I can't relate to my business of 6 years, having trouble doing the most basic tasks & I'm not even worried if I am making money or not.
I've also distant myself from family, not because I don't love them, but feeling I am not resonating on the same level, feeling distant. Their conversations & actions feel really stagnant.
I just keep thinking I need to spend a long time at a meditation or yoga retreat.

Completely agree you guys, thanks for your posts. Makes me feel like I'm not the only one! lol

I'm going to manifest a good and smooth change...into something spiritual/helping others. May be years, but I'm going to start manifesting it now.

My experiences co-creating with spirit has not always been that "good and smooth change". Many times it has been the opposite.

I closed my 20 year business in 2003 so that, according to my higher self, I could become truly empowered. At the time I did not feel any of that.

Today some 11 years later, I can see the wisdom for this change. As a fully retired person living entirely on social security I can focus my attention on a vast range of worthwhile projects. There are no money concerns. My fixed income confines me and at the same time frees me to devote my efforts to my highest interests.

It is hard to describe the joy and richness of my life.

Yes, I find that I need to take a lot of time for solitude. The world, social expectations and demands take their toll on me. I have to retreat to my haven for rejuvenation. I'm also going to be taking a real solo retreat. I will not work, see people or engage in the usual trappings of life for 5 days. It is for contemplation and reflection. I hope to gain more insight into some major changes that have been occuring recently.

I find that over the past couple years I am increasingly sensitive to people's emotional and mental states and just environments in general. I have had to become much more discerning about who I'm with and where I go. All of this has actually lead to a deeper connection spiritually.

I wish you the best during these challenging times. Take care of and listen to those deeper needs and you might begin to find a new balance.
