Julia Cameron seems to be saying that when a person engages in work or activities that truly match their talents, passions and purpose, then money will naturally flow to them as a result. When following one’s true calling, opportunities will arise (“doors open”) and the work will feel intrinsically fulfilling (“we feel useful”) and even enjoyable (“the work we do feels like play”).
