3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
With cat on the road to recovery and acquiring a new client, mojo has returned! Daughter has got herself a Saturday job, so is less likely to present us with any more nasty financial surprises.
For all I have learned and the progress I have made, much to learn I still have! My focus is not yet so strong that I am immune to circumstances, although I am considerably more robust.
With a run of negative events hopefully drawing to a close, my mind is freed up to focus on my goals. Spiritually, to spend more time in Universal Consciousness rather than ego. Careerwise, to focus on my intention to no longer need the Weekend Job and seek opportunities to make that happen.
