I actually love them. =) But only when you are tapping into your deeper truth, not “putting whipped cream on a cowpie”.

I'm right there with you: I've never trusted "positive thinking" (affirmations remind me of The Shining - "All work and no play make Jack a dull boy.") My experience echos yours - it takes input, effort, and surrender to grow and receive grace. But money/class consciousness/lack of abundance is among the toughest points for me, and it feels like high time to surrender. I'll be visiting again for your experience and wisdom!

This week I called up my clients and let them know I am taking two weeks off from working on their websites. I had fear that they wouldn't be happy with me, but they were very accepting and one of them was even relieved since it gave her a chance to take a break too! I realized I want my business to be fun and joyful for me and for my clients, and that means I need to take breaks. I even told my client that and it made our relationship stronger. Cool!
