It can be so easy to overcomplicate manifesting. In fact I'm sure that there are times in your day when you read something about manifesting your goals, dreams, and desires where you might even think "nah, thats too easy."
This is actually resistance!!
I know!!
Resistance can be sneaky!!! It hides right in plain sight in our everyday thoughts, habits, patterns, and what we believe to be true.
Here's the thing, what I have come to find is that resistance is often the indicator of where I need to dig in and get curious about what is being shown to me. It's like the X marks the spot kind of indicator!!
"It's like the X that marks the spot of where we need to look and get curious and start looking at what is being shown to us."
This resistance can show up through a message, a social media post, a story that someone is sharing, maybe even this blog. Whatever the way it doesn't matter. What matters is that you notice the energy of resistance and what that feels like and looks like for you.
Over the years, I have gotten really curious and uncovered 5 of the sneakiest ways that many people resist manifesting their goals, dreams, and desires, without even realizing they're doing it!!
Pssst, as you are reading these, notice where you may be feeling resistance or hearing that voice that says "This is too easy" or "This couldn't be real."
This is an opportunity for you to open up to possibility!!
Let's dive in!!
1.) Resisting visualization. Visualizing and seeing yourself in your mind, reaching your goal or the result that you desire, IS a powerful practice. Visualization puts you into the energy and the feeling of what you will be experiencing when you have your desired goal or result. All manifestations begin in the body. In fact, our natural state is manifestation.
Have you noticed that when it’s time for you to close your eyes to dream and imagine what you want to see happen in your life, you stop? Or, all of a sudden a list of things that you have to do "RIGHT NOW" pops into your mind, so you put off "Doing it til later?" Have you noticed that in yourself? You're not alone my friend. This is a super sneaky place where resistance hides out in plain site!
2.) Procrastinating and perfecting what you want. This looks like having to ask or say things just right. For example, let's say that you would love to have a specific job. And so you say, "This job ________ (fill in the blank) would be amazing to have. I would really love to do that or work there." Now, you have submitted your request. You have named and claimed what you desire. And then, in come the thoughts of, "Did I do it right?" "Was I clear enough?" " Will Universe know what I meant?" "Should I say it differently?" And on and on goes your brain filling you with doubt.
This back and forth of your request, this lack of clarity is the same as giving someone a message and before they can do anything about it, you delete it. And then you rewrite the message and then recall it or delete the message over and over again. Imagine being the person who is trying to read your message. They have an idea of what you're saying but it's unclear and they don't know what you want.
This is what you are doing every time you make a request and then second guess "if you did it right" by asking over and over in different ways for what you want. This is the opposite of being crystal clear and can slow your manifestations down immensely.
3.) Being impatient. Let's say that you have asked for something or you have set a goal. And, you're in that in-between space of making the request and waiting for the request to show up in your life. You're waiting and waiting and it doesn't seem like it's coming because you can't see it. In this in-between space, it's really easy to be impatient
I compare this to having planted a seed in the ground and now you're in the space waiting for that seed to sprout. You don't go back into the soil and dig it up to see why it's not growing yet. You don't go and dig it up and say "oh, I planted this wrong let me move it to another part of the garden." No, you wait to see the signs of the seedling sprout up through the surface of the soil. It's the same with manifesting!
4.) Looking for a signier sign!! In # 3 above we talked about waiting to see a sign that the "seed" is sprouting. Signs are a powerful tool in manifesting too!! They support you in that in-between time when you have made the request and you're waiting for what you desire to show up in your physical world.
Often times signs are sent to you to let you now it's all working out perfectly for you and for the highest good. When you see those signs it can be easy to doubt that it was a sign. What I hear so often is "Well, Im not sure if that was the "right" sign, so I'll wait for a signier sign!!"
This is also resistance hiding so sneakily in plain sight!!
When you see your sign, THAT is your sign!! No need for a signier one!!
5.) Making your vision board wrong! Yes! I know! So sneaky isn't it? This IS resistance. I have heard from soooooo many people that this is what stops them from even dreaming about what they would even ask for, let alone making their vision board! The resistance is to asking for the "wrong thing", or limiting themselves by what they pick. Or, believing that somehow they will be locked in like footsteps in concrete with what they choose. Or, they don't know what they want. This even ties into perfectionism!!
Are there any other recovering perfectionists out there? As one myself, I see you!
Perfecting is resistance and sometimes it can even hide out as procrastination! Waiting to have it all perfect before you start. But, that's a whole other topic for another day!!
When you see any ONE of these 5 things happening in your manifesting practice, it's important to recognize that this IS resistance and it's stopping you from having what you want in your life. It's stopping you from manifesting your goals, dreams, and desires.
Without moving through the resistance it's nearly impossible for you to manifest because the resistance keeps you stuck in the same habits patterns, and beliefs that you're in right now. And where you are right now can't bring you what you desire. If it could you would already have everything you desire.
