Lurker,

Consider that you have most of the pieces already, and its just a matter of following those desires you just expressed. The business world builds and crumbles, fortunes made, lost, on and on, but as we bring our heart to our journey, it unfolds around us. Auspicious coincidence, finding other heartfelt businesses and audiences for your widget or service, etc, etc. You’ll do fine.

As far as the balance goes, consider spending more time in the general feeling of where you wish your journey to take you (as in wishing for the space to grow, desire to be kind, family, etc) and don’t fret the big stuff. We find out along the way there is actually very little big stuff, just lots of little stuff, which we can meet mindfully for our benefit and that of others. Look for a good choice, make it, see what happens. No biggie. The heart does most of the work, its deep and wise. 🙂

For the low self value because you’re not a card carrying member of society with an income and clear direction, consider accepting you’re a student. You’re asking great questions, and have peaceful, co-creative desires… that’s plenty, wonderful already. Said differently, perhaps if you can just accept the gift of space and education, and not attach self value to money (either as a yacht owner or a beggar kid) then it’ll be easier for you to build a good map of where you really want to take your life. Somewhere in between something we’re really great at and something we love to do is where we find our garden. Relax, keep looking. Its worth taking some time to find your aim.

With warmth,
Matt
