Like a lot of people I was very into the Law of Attraction and put a lot of time and effort into "getting it." I realized (thank goodness) that I wasn't getting what I thought I wanted because there were some very wise parts of me that did not want those things.

When we "get" something it's usually when all of us are in agreement and it's something we can actually handle responsibly and wisely.

When I'm not ready for something and it shows up I tend to screw things up in some way.

This doesn't mean I don't constantly hope the Universe will bail me out without me doing the work. I'm human! But at least I can remember that 1. it may very well be something I don't need and 2. something even better will show up when I'm ready.

So so so true Judy! When I'm not ready for something and still receive it...there's a lot of work to be done there too!

But slowly have learned to sink into, "everything happens for a reason."

A wisdom that only comes with stillness and a willingness to be shown vs needing to be known.

Wants and desires thinking we can manifest our way there. And what I feel through this is we must surrender to be shown and lead to where we are and must become. Thank you my friend as always.

Once again you share such wisdom.

I know that I am in a phase of preparation -though my mind is so eager for me to move forward onto the things that I am working on.

The article that you included made so much sense for where I am at. Thanks for the share!

Starting with: I appreciate this....

Logically this equation runs: “You don’t have it, which means it isn't yours.” “If you don’t chase it, you won’t have it.” Well, I didn’t chase it, and now I don’t have it. Congratulations. Okay, all that drops out and I do nothing, because no action, no chasing will work anyway. End State: I don’t have, can’t work, and have nothing to apply myself to. Not only is my work useless, but even my heart’s wants are pointless as well, a burden that might as well not exist. This is not a high end state.

Maybe this is what you’re saying: that if we don’t have things, we don’t deserve them and there’s nothing we can do about it?

Now this can be another way of saying “Actually, your soul is self-sufficient and your ego doesn’t add anything to it” but if you’re not already in an enlightened state, all that is just a cheat that means nothing. Maybe this is a way of saying, “What is the location this speaker is speaking from?” From your position this has more revelation and meaning than hearing it from the outside. If so, why?

That's not what I meant at all. And tbh still learning and diving deep into the whole thing.

But one thing I've realised for myself is that...unless and until our soul's frequency is ready to hold it (even if we aren't aware of it yet)...we don't receive certain things

How much ever mind work we do

Of course there's karma, effort after receiving to sustain (relationships for example) and many nuanced layers come into this

Hope I got your comment right?

It took me a while to get the hang of manifestation. Over the years I learn something very important. What is meant for will come.

We all so busy want to speed the process but honestly we not enjoying the flow of things. That one thing you been dreaming about or wanted so bad is already written in your DNA. Divine has already coded that dream in you. So no doubt you will receive. No... You already have it.

We don't get it right away because we have to go through the process to get to that point. I remember I have been wanting to live a peaceful lifestyle and a home I had this idea what my home look like, I vision it, feel it, but at that time I was so busy rushing it I didn't know that I was transitioning to that point. Before I know It, i lost my apartment, I outgrew the best friends I had, I let go of certain family members and I was hoping from one home to another.. I didn't know I was getting what I was asking for. It hit me one day once I receive my new home that's when I realized..

We have to go with the flow of life, stillness, and be patient. You will receive.

Thank you for sharing your story:)

Oooooohhhhhh woooowww! That's so beautiful isn't it??? Because in the desires we only visualise the "outcome" but we never know where life would take us to get us there

The ego sees what the soul remembers that it needs. Then ego says something like “I can make this real”, and all hell breaks loose. Ego pushes and soul fades into the background to wait.

There's so much internal noise and back and forth going on isn't it? All the while soul is simply silent...watching. waiting for the drama to conclude haha

Just in time, I was sitting with so many questions about why things don't happen even though I try so hard. And by trying, I mean "manifesting," "visualizing," "meditating," and trying to keep myself relaxed so I can align... But align to what? So I opened Substack to read and detach myself from overthinking! And poof 😁 here you are! I will definitely reread.

This is so good! As you so gently put— it’s not about manifesting a vibration, a frequency or an alignment; it’s about 𝘳𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘮𝘣𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨. That’s deep! Thank you for writing this!
