Four Signs That Youre Overmanifesting By Samantha Fey l Inspirational Words

What is Overmanifesting?

We all have read and studied how to manifest goals into reality. I x V = R. Imagination times Visualization equals Reality. If you can imagine it and visualize your dream, you can realize it. The Secret made it sound easy, right? So how come the new car,new love or new job hasn’t arrived? Well, you may be overmanifesting. This occurs when you focus so much on wanting something that you don’t allow it to manifest for you. Manifesting is co-creating with the universe. The universe can’t do its part until you release it, let go and allow it to return the goal to you. Your job, when manifesting, is to create what you want to bring into your life, visualize it, prepare for it and then release it to the universe. Its job is to bring your ideas into reality and return it to you. This can’t happen if you don’t do your job of releasing it. So how do you know if you’re overmanifesting? There are four signs to look out for.

Mainfesting Through Fear

If you’re trying to manifest something, and you’re afraid it WON’T happen, then you will never manifest it. Fear is a strong emotion and it will trump most manifesting techniques. If you find yourself worrying that your goal or dream will not manifest, take steps to prevent this. There are several things you can do to release fear. You can affirm that you deserve happiness and success. You can write your fears down on a piece of paper and then bury or rip up the paper to physically release it from your body. Practice faith, prayer, trust and surrender. Imagine yourself giving your goal to an angel and see the angel taking this goal to source. Trust that your goal and dream will be returned to you in time.

Manifesting Through Envy

I had a client who was a fairly successful realtor. She wanted to manifest a new house but couldn’t seem to get approved for the home she wanted. She spent her days showing clients homes she wanted for herself. She found herself envying her clients and sometimes feeling jealous of them. Why should they have this house and not her? What was she doing wrong and what were they doing right? She became bitter and her sales slowly sank. I told her to practice gratitude for what she did have, to practice anonymous acts of kindness and to tithe each week to a person who uplifted her soul. I told her that every time she saw someone achieving something she wanted, she was to say over and over in her head, “Good for them and good for me. If they can do it, so can I.” After three weeks of putting these practices to use, her sales began to climb again. Nine weeks later, she was approved for a loan on her dream house.

Experiencing envy and sometimes jealously is perfectly normal. But we need to try and move beyond that emotion and affirm that good things are available to us as well. When you see a friend getting ahead in life, be genuinely happy for him because this success is your divine right too. The quicker you learn that, the sooner you’ll manifest your dreams.

Manifesting Through Anger

Many people choose to focus on their anger – it’s safe, it makes them feel right and it’s empowering. But just like a gun, anger brings power and destruction. People hold onto anger out of fear. Anger will destroy your ability to manifest your goals simply because it’s a destructive emotion – nothing can survive in that energy. When you focus on what’s wrong with your life, rather than what’s right; you are manifesting more anger and more reasons to be angry. We manifest all the time. We tend to put more energy into what we don’t want, rather than on what we do want. Step outside of yourself for one week and really pay attention to your words and your thoughts.

How often do you complain to your family and friends? How often do your thoughts wander to what’s wrong or who’s wrong in your life? How much energy are you spending on anger? People spend so much energy trying to prove the validity of their anger. See what a jerk my ex is? Look at what my boss did; now do you understand why I hate my job? My car broke down again. I told you I was unlucky. If we spent this much time affirming what is right and good in our lives, we’d be manifesting superstars.

Manifesting Through Denial

While some people choose to go through life with anger as their security blanket, others choose denial. They prefer to live in La-La-Land. They deny their part in the story that is their life. They deny the pain that is holding them back, refuse to look at the fear that is freezing them in their path. They go from one self-help book to another. Run from one guru to the next. They buy all the self-help “fixes” and they collapse in a heap of depression wondering why none of it is working. If you’re living in a state of denial, you won’t manifest anything but bills for all your self-help “stuff.” A book, a product, a teacher cannot fix your life. No one can do that but you. Sure, they can lead the way, plant seeds of hope or instruction in your soul but you have to do the work.

Ultimately, it’s you that needs to face and fight your fear, your worry, your past, your anger and even your denial. Do the work. Manifesting is as simple as losing weight. Look at the billion-dollar weight loss industry. Everyone is selling us a diet book, diet pill or exercise equipment to magically reduce our waist line. We all know there is nothing magic about weight loss; just hard work. It’s really simple in practice. Eat less. Move more. Manifesting is the same way. It’s as simple as ABC – ASK, BELIEVE, CONCEIVE. Putting into practice however can be difficult at first. Do the work anyway. Push through the anger, worry, fear and denial. You are worth it!
