It occurs to me that perhaps the reason I am having such difficulty pinning down a real full-time job is that I have not been wearing my money toad. I have several gorgeous jade necklaces, all of which contain some type of Chinese symbolism, generally relating to luck, health, or finances. My money toad is an adorable little stone creature with one back leg extended and gripping a coin in his mouth, ready to deliver it to the home of his wearer. I have been neglecting him, and therefore, he is neglecting me. I am not particularly superstitious, but I do believe that if you surround yourself with physical reminders of what you need and desire from life, these things will be in the forefront of your thoughts and therefore you will be better equipped to make them happen. It is just an assisted form of positive thinking, I suppose. Whatever works; the human mind is capable of much more than we typically use it for during our daily routines, and it's about time that I put mine to better use.
