Wonderful article! I did a YouTube video a while back on this very type of thing. I tell my spouse all the time that others get to do what they want to do, but I don't get that type of luck. One of my whiney moments. (You see, I'm building my tarot business too--will have been reading regularly a year in September, though I've been reading off and on since I was 25). My spouse suddenly turned around to me and put me in my place. He clearly and emphatically told me that what I said was utter garbage, though not those words. He said that I did exactly what I wanted to do, regardless of the reason, and the reason other people got to do what they wanted to do is because their value system was much different than mine. That's when I discovered I really loved security. And honestly, that type of mentality can actually act like a living flytrap. So I have to keep reminding myself that I can always make a different choice. Your article reminded me of that so much!
Congrats on your Tarot biz! Flytrap a great analogy and security isn't so -- it only seems that way, based on our beliefs around work and $$. I've read more clients than not who are utterly miserable in their "secure" job and feel life seeping away but won't leave because of health benefits and whatnot. That particular script never worked for me. I'm a creator, not a follower but everyone has a role to play. Whether that role is being played out with integrity -- only they know.
