If you’re already giving manifesting, a go but it’s not working, don’t worry – you’re not alone! There are plenty of reasons why manifesting isn’t as easy as planting a seed and watering it occasionally. So, why doesn’t manifesting work?
Manifesting doesn’t work when you are not properly visualizing what you want or when you think it’s too hard to manifest. You might have doubts in your mind that might be holding you back from manifesting. It might also not work if you don’t know what to ask for or if you can’t keep focus to get it.
Given below are nine main reasons why manifesting doesn’t work.
REASON 1: You don’t really want what you say you want.
One of the most common reasons why manifesting doesn’t work is when you don’t really want what you say you want.
If you’re not really sure, it’s better to stop now and think about it. If you go ahead with manifesting, the chances are that what will come to you will not be what you really desire.
If your thoughts and feelings are in alignment, manifestation might work for you, but if they are out of alignment, they won’t have any effect on your manifestation.
To fix this, you must:
- Be clear about what you want.
- Work hard to get what you want.
REASON 2: You don’t have enough faith and confidence in manifesting.
You doubt that manifesting will work. Manifesting requires a lot of faith and confidence to bring something into your reality.
Manifesting requires a lot of effort too. It requires you to focus and make changes in your life.
This might be the reason why you’re not able to manifest what you want.
To fix this, you must:
- Believe that it’s possible to manifest what you want and that it will happen.
- Take action towards getting what you want and stop thinking about it.
- Practice positive affirmations and visualization techniques to manifest what you want.
