One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My friends call me the Queen of Manifesting, and one time, about four hours after envisioning myself as a millionaire (in my shower of all places), I received an $800,000/year plus bonus job offer. OUT of the BLUE! No joke.
The location and timing just weren't right, unfortunately.
I think my mom's still mad I didn't take that job...
