“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The abilities have always been present, however, latent as within each man health is there, though perhaps latent in the same way. The rich man thinks of wealth as a part of himself. He takes it for granted he has it and will achieve more. The poor man takes his poverty for granted, actually on trust, and takes it for granted he will have more of the same.

Now. It may seem to you that ideally one should be so highly proficient that in one life you are gifted with excellent health, great abilities, power and wealth. The fact remains however that many individuals choose to “specialize” in quotes, learning for example how to translate creative thought into physical form, or into physical abundance, and relatively ignore other areas.

In some cases an imbalance is deliberately chosen, as I have mentioned, for various reasons, for the sake of experience, for emphasis. Some seek and achieve wealth simply to learn the lesson that wealth alone is not the answer to life’s problems, so they are wealthy and unhappy—though they need not be wealthy and unhappy. You follow me.
