Thank you, your question will help me with other parts of the chapter. I think affirmations need to be flexible and address human needs primarily. They can pursue wants, but if needs are being met, gratefulness for needs being met can soothe that desire.

I realize this issue may need to be brought up earlier in the chapter as a result.

As a writer, I have had a fundamental need to write. I write to be read and want to be read, but that part of the deal is up to higher powers. It’s true that I battle with a sense of invisibility that hurts, but then I have to adjust my prophesy so that my needs get addressed and my wants reside where they need to, under higher powers.

A sense and acceptance of limitations is necessary for self actualization and health. I think famous sports achievers have to battle enormous obstacles and they have ups and downs too.
