Why Isn't My Manifesting Working?
Do you ever feel like your manifestation attempts get lost in the universal postal system? Or perhaps you're questioning if there's an issue with translation because you're looking around at your life and thinking…this is not what I ordered!
Manifesting is a powerful tool for creating a life that is in alignment with your soul's contract. But it's important to understand that it's not just about having a dream, surrendering it, and waiting for it to actualize. Instead, manifesting is a collaborative activity, a process of co-creation that requires you to listen to your intuition and take action.
If you're asking, "Why isn't my manifesting working?" open your heart and take a deep breath. I've got you, and together we'll walk through the steps of manifestation where I frequently see my clients come unstuck.
Take my hand, and let's find out what's blocking you from creating the life you were destined to live.
Clarifying your desires
Manifesting is an act of the heart. You have a desire, you see the vision, and you act to intentionally create it. But successful manifestation requires clarity and a deep understanding of what's driving your desires.
If we don't dig deep and tap into our intuition, we can unintentionally call in some pretty funky experiences. You must be specific about what you want and allow yourself to dream.
Get curious about what you are trying to manifest…
What does it look like?
How does it make you feel?
Why is it important to you?
I often see clients experience challenges with this first step. Sometimes they focus too heavily on what they don't want instead of focusing on what they are trying to attract. When we place our energy on what we are trying to avoid, we manifest from a place of wounds, fear, and ego. Instead, we need to focus on manifesting in harmony with our soul and from a place of high vibrational energy.
Try journaling to clarify your desires and explore the intention behind your manifestation goals. Use your journal as a tool for communicating with the divine. Ask for guidance on what steps you need to take and write down any information that comes into your consciousness.
Meditation is also a great way to quiet your mind and listen to your heart. If you'd like to try my manifesting meditation to attract your dream life, you can find it here.
Listening to guidance
Manifesting is not a one-and-done process, but I often see people fall into this belief and miss out on the collaborative conversations required for success. You must set aside time regularly to check in with your intuition and receive guidance. Listen to what steps you need to take and then act accordingly. The guidance you receive is sacred, and although it might require you to push through your comfort zone…trust it, action it, and then check in again to explore the next step.
Believing in the process
When a client asks me, "Why isn't my manifesting working?" nine times out of ten, it's because they don't believe it will work. Deeply held limiting beliefs can cause significant blockages and allow your ego to take control of the wheel. So when you think about what it is you are trying to manifest, pay attention to your self-talk.
Are you sabotaging yourself with statements such as…
"This isn't going to work."
"I'm not good enough."
"I don't deserve success."
Sadly, our wounds can create some nasty thoughts. Get out of your head and focus on talking to yourself positively. Use empowering affirmations and believe that your manifestation will become a reality at every step along the way.
Celebrating the milestones
Manifesting your desires is not going to happen overnight. It can be years before you see your vision materialize. When we are in the trenches doing the work every day, we don't know how long it will take. Unfortunately, so many people become frustrated during this period of waiting and assume that their manifesting isn't working.
I'm here to tell you to stay the course and celebrate the milestones you have achieved so far.
Here's a great example—suppose you are trying to manifest your dream house, and you haven't found it yet, BUT you have found the right neighborhood, a realtor that you like, and you've got a crystal clear vision of the type of house you want…that's progress! So take notice of the little signs and congratulate yourself on the steps you've taken towards your goal.
If you are only looking for the final product of your manifestation, you are going to get lost on the path.
Learning to manifest in line with your soul's contract
There is no shortage of information on manifesting, but I firmly believe in finding what's in your heart and creating based on your soul's destiny. When we tap into our intuition and listen to our hearts, we can intentionally create a life that is in true alignment with our soul contract.
Like so many others reading this post, you've probably asked yourself, "Why isn't my manifesting working?" I feel you, and I know how frustrating that can be.
While I hope this information has helped you identify possible blocks in your manifesting journey, I would love to invite you to dig deeper and join my Soul Led Manifesting course. It guides you through the process and rituals I use to manifest, and I feel it is part of my soul's contract to share that with you.
