Manifestation is a powerful tool for creating the life you desire.
But it's not always smooth sailing.
Along this journey,
It's easy to fall into common traps that can hinder your progress.
Today,
I'll share with you 12 common manifestation mistakes to watch out for and tips on how you can steer clear of them to manifest your dreams.
Mistake number one.
You're not clear about what you want.
This seems counterintuitive,
But many people make the mistake of being unclear about what they want to manifest.
For example,
They may want better or more of something,
But when asked what it is and how that looks like in reality,
They can't give a specific answer.
So it's important to be specific and get crystal clear on what or who you want to manifest and why that's truly important to you.
Mistake number two.
You're focusing on your problems or what you don't want.
This is another common mistake that many of us make,
Focusing on what we don't want,
The challenges,
Hardships that we're facing,
And all that is lacking or wrong in our life.
For example,
Someone who's wishing for more abundance and a better financial situation might be thinking,
I want to get out of poverty.
Dwelling on fears and worries only attracts more of the same.
The solution is instead to focus on what you do want to manifest and the positive outcomes it will bring.
If you want to get out of scarcity and poverty,
Focus on being abundant now and focus on appreciating the abundance in small and big forms in your life and expressing gratitude for what you already have now.
Mistake number three.
Not believing in your capabilities,
Your worthiness,
Yourself.
Doubting your ability to manifest your desires blocks the process of co-creating with the divine.
If you don't believe you have the ability to manifest your desires,
Or if you don't believe that you are worthy of what you want to manifest,
Then you won't be able to realize your dreams or attract what you want to manifest.
The solution is to work on releasing self-limiting beliefs,
Build self-confidence,
And trust in your capability to attract what you want with the support of the divine.
You can build confidence using various methods including journaling,
Meditation,
And affirmations.
Mistake number four.
You're manifesting from a low vibrational state or a negative emotional state.
We've already explored this in one of the earlier sessions.
Your emotional state is crucial for manifestation.
If you try to manifest from a low vibrational state when you're experiencing lack,
Feeling sad,
Frustrated,
Angry,
Or hurt,
You will attract more of that same negativity.
If and when you notice that happening,
Focus on first elevating your state to reach a neutral state and then if possible,
Ideally come to a positive state of gratitude,
Contentment,
And inspiration before engaging in manifestation.
You can elevate your emotional or vibrational state by avoiding people,
Situations,
And things that lower or drain your energy and instead immersing yourself in situations and surrounding yourself with people who elevate your energy.
This will also ensure that the actions you take from this state are in alignment with what or who you want to manifest.
Mistake number five.
You're trying to control when it happens.
Manifestation requires patience.
Instant results are rare.
As we've explored earlier within this journey,
When you co-create with the divine,
The timeline and deadline is not set by you.
You have to let go of the when.
If you're expecting quick or immediate results,
You will feel frustrated and you may lose faith in the process.
Have faith in divine timing.
Rather than fixate on the gap between where you are and where you want to be,
Remind yourself that what you want to manifest already is here and that it starts from within before it manifests outwards in the tangible,
Concrete world.
Stay present and be patient with yourself as you work towards your dreams.
Mistake number six.
You're obsessing over the how.
Many of us can feel stressed and caught up over how the manifestation will unfold,
Believing that we have to figure out the next step or even the next 10,
100 steps to manifest our dreams.
This reflects that you're still not fully trusting and surrendering to the divine.
We've already explored this earlier in this journey.
Obsessing over the details of how your desires will manifest creates a sense of lack and also limits your ability to attract what you want to manifest.
To avoid this mistake and co-create with the divine,
Direct your focus to the what.
Or who you want to manifest and why that is so important to you.
Trust and have faith that the universe will provide the means.
Mistake number seven.
You're not taking consistent,
Inspired,
And aligned action.
Co-creating with the divine requires actual work,
Consistent practice,
And aligned,
Inspired action-taking.
If you notice you're procrastinating or skipping taking action that you need to help you realize your dreams,
Then that's you getting in your own way.
If you want to manifest your dreams,
There are costs to pay.
For example,
If you'd like to manifest your dream body,
You need to eat healthily,
You need to exercise consistently,
And work on releasing negative body image beliefs.
If you let how you feel in the If you let how you feel in the moment or laziness get in your way,
That hinders the manifestation process.
Instead of focusing on how you feel in the moment and letting that dictate your actions,
Commit to tender discipline and integrity to honor your commitment to what is important to you,
Your intentions,
And your heartfelt desires and dreams.
Mistake number eight.
You're forgetting to give thanks.
Gratitude is a magnet for abundance,
And being grateful will help you attract more.
Conversely,
When we forget to give thanks,
We live in a mindset of scarcity and lack,
Which is something we want to avoid.
Cultivate a daily practice of gratitude,
And this will help you attract more blessings and abundance in your life.
Mistake number nine.
You're allowing negative thoughts to take over.
Negative thoughts repel positive outcomes,
What you think you attract,
And so if most of your thoughts are negative,
It will attract negativity and lack in your life.
The solution is to engage in the practice of reframing negative thoughts into positive ones,
And focus on the good you want to manifest in your life.
Positive affirmations are a simple and powerful practice you can do to reframe negative thoughts.

Mistake number ten.
You're judging the outcome,
Or you're too attached to the outcome.
Related to the previous point,
Some of us step ourselves in the foot during manifestation by judging the outcome of our actions.
Maybe you went on a date,
And it didn't go as well as you hoped,
Or you launched a product,
And it didn't go as well as you had envisioned.
Another scenario might be that you're overly attached to the outcome.
You feel like you can only be happy if and when your desired outcome is met,
And you feel like you can't be happy if and when your desired outcome is not met.
You feel like you can't be happy if and when if and when your desired outcome is manifested,
And that causes you to feel desperate now.
Judging the outcome or attaching your happiness to the outcome lowers your vibration and affects the manifestation process.
The solution is to practice releasing the need to judge and embracing radical acceptance and gratitude that what is here and now is how it should be.
This may not be how you imagined it,
But this is actually a crucial and important step or phase in your manifestation process that can guide you to the next level.
MYSTIC 11.
YOU AREN'T PASSING THE TESTS THAT YOU'RE BEING SENT The speed at which you manifest things you want is determined by how well you're passing the tests that the divine is sending to you.
Usually,
Just as you get really clear on what you want,
A version of it appears in your life that is nearly,
But not quite,
What you want,
Leaving you with the decision to make as to whether you should accept it or not.
Why?
Because the divine wants to see if you really meant what you said or if you are going to settle.
Your tests or this option may look really similar to your desired manifestation,
But is still missing a vital aspect or quality.
If you settle because you're worried you won't be able to get what you truly want,
Or because you fear that this might be your only option and you settle,
Then you're not going to manifest what you truly desire.
To overcome this,
Clarify what it is you truly want.
Identify your negotiables and your non-negotiables.
When you don't settle for anything less than what you asked for,
You show the divine and yourself what it is you want exactly so they can co-create it with you.
Mistake number 12.
Not persevering and giving up too soon.
This is probably the number one reason why most people don't manage to manifest their dreams.
Manifestation requires perseverance.
Like any worthwhile endeavor,
This takes time,
A lot of faith,
And a lot of patience.
Stay committed to your desires.
Have faith that they will manifest when all the conditions are suitable and when the time is right.
