I believe that you have to actively be working on or towards something in order for people to actively help you.

So often I see people saying “I want help with my life/dream/goals” whilst doing nothing. They want someone to just drop in, tell them what to do, hand them their life and then just take over. It doesn’t work that way.

The universe (and people) respond to specifics. They respond to activity. You have to have an idea and be working on it (even if it’s just trying to really formulate the idea on paper first) in order to get a response. If you’re not willing to help yourself, why and how should someone else help you?
