Manifestation might be limitation, but does that counter something else that is wanted? It could be. It depends on how we define reality.

I agree. Focus on money is not natural for me. Keeping a daily log of how much I made and how much I spend is a great idea.

Step one is to identify a specific thing you don't have that requires a change, and then step two is to create that.

I like to think I have a purpose, but often I come to feel/think I am wrong too. It's really weird. It's like set and reset. But at the end of the day you need to take care of your responsibilities to the best you can too. Don't let extraneous issues dictate your vision, but also take into account what feedback you get too.

Then why communicate meaning thru language? Why not go do something else? I'm not saying you, but anyone who has this point of view.

So you think mind is like the body in the sense that it just kinda does whatever it does. There's no control over the patterns of the mind just like there is no control over the patterns of the body. But then how do you know if the patterns of the mind are Good?

What about teaching this though? Where does that factor in? Otherwise you would be Free, right?
