Manifesting

It’s amazing how fast things can flip.

I wrote Just trying on 12 July:

Just trying to earn enough to feed five, buy wholesome foods, give my child the best chance possible at life, be a present dad, shout less, play more, be a loving supportive partner to my wife, be a filial son, take care of my elderly parents’ health, take them out for meals sometimes, clean the house, repair what’s broken, work on something I love, create something that gives me meaning, do some social good, make friends, plan for retirement, pay off my flat, eat healthy, have fun every week, take family on vacation sometimes, travel, build new products, do marketing, connect with peers, network, learn new things, get outside, be in nature more, hustle hard, manage stress, exercise much, sleep enough, sleep well, stay fit, be a good person, live a good life.

Today, on 28 July, two weeks later:

I earn at least $10k per month to address immediate needs like money, shelter, food, education. Fulfilling my duties and roles as son, husband, father, I provide for my wife, son, elderly parents with my presence, love, kinship, filial piety, and a good quality of life. I’ll also grow into my vision of my future me, aligned to my vocation, interests, and achieving financial freedom in my retirement years. Alongside that is my family’s future - a worry-free old age, health, happiness, togetherness, finishing off with life well lived. I can and I am.

I don’t know what changed within the span of two weeks. But something did.

For that I’m grateful.

And now, hopeful.
