I’m not trying to step on toes as I’m sure Anita will have a terrific answer. I’ve really enjoyed this topic. Since I’m new here I’m trying to tip toe around and not act like a know it all because I’m certainly still working on it all myself. But I found my head shaking in disbelief as I read through some of the last few posts.

Joe – all that matters is that YOU believe your dreams are doable. If you can imagine it, then it is possible. Nothing is fantasy if you really desire to achieve it. You say you need to work on your dreams and put effort into them. I agree but personally I would start with your inner limiting beliefs. Those are what are holding you back, not money or anything else, it’s your limiting beliefs. Re-read your post. You say, “I desire to do this BUT I’m aware it’s difficult, I want to do that BUT I’m aware it will never happen, I want to do that BUT I’m aware it’s a complete myth.” I was like dude seriously do you hear yourself. Why do you have these false beliefs? Why can’t you be a successful artist? Why can’t you be self sufficient? Ask yourself these questions brother. You can do anything you want to do. But you first have to believe it is possible.

We don’t have to worry about “how” things are going to happen or come together we just have to know that they will. This is how the law of attraction works. Just focus on what you truly desire and believe without a doubt that it will happen. Focus on it daily, think about it, visualize it like it’s already happened and feel how that makes you feel. Let those feelings radiate out and feel good about it and almost magically the right door will open, an opportunity will present itself, the money will show up, you’ll get that teaching job, etc.

Just my two pennies.
