In this post, we discuss 3 manifestation mistakes to avoid when manifesting your desires.

3 Manifestation Mistakes That Are Delaying Your Desire
Mistake #1: Attachment to the Old Story & Identity
One of the most common manifestation mistakes that delay your desire is remaining attached to the old story and identity.
For example, you are manifesting new, stable streams of income, but you are clinging to the old identity of being someone who always struggles with money. Or you’re manifesting a new chapter of expansion and happiness, but are romanticising toxicity from the past.
When you’ve spent so long, maybe near enough your whole life, experiencing a version of reality and having a seemingly fixed idea of who you are and what is possible for you, it can be hard to shed this when creating something new.
The mind is hardwired for survival, and your mind sees your norm as safe. The story you are used to is your norm; it’s your version of safe, even if it’s not your ideal story. This is why the shedding of the old story as you transition into the new can feel unstable at first. This is understandable and to be expected — especially if these attachments are deeply etched into your subconscious mind.
You’re rewiring your mind so that you can experience something new, often it’s a complete 180° to what you are used to. To experience something new in your outer reality, you must change who you are being within. The old story needs to fall away so that another, better serving story can take its place.
Mistake #2: Wishing Instead of Being
Another common manifestation mistake is wishing you had your desire, instead of internally (in your mind) being someone who already has it.
What does this look like? Thinking thoughts of ‘I want _’ or ‘I wish I could have _’ instead of thoughts of being the version of you who has your desire. If you had it in your reality and it was your norm, you wouldn’t be wishing you could have it. It wouldn’t be out of reach, because you have it.
Wishing and wanting from a place of lack indicates to your subconscious mind that you do not have it, so this is what you are going to be experiencing more of. If you already had your desire, is it up on a pedestal somewhere outside of your reach? Of course it’s not because it’s yours.
Stop giving your power away to your desire by thinking of it from a place of lack. Your desire is not something out of reach that has power over you. You are the creator of your reality. You can have what it is you desire if you say you can. Your thoughts hold power. You must change your inner dialogue to match being who you want to be, instead of wishing you could be that person.
Mistake #3: Giving Away Your Power to Limiting Beliefs
Your limiting beliefs are the beliefs you hold that contradict what you want to experience. They are stories that you have accepted as true. All they are are just stories. Just like a negative story can be accepted and created into existence, a positive story can too. They’re all just stories (thoughts) in your mind. The only difference is that they mean different things to you.
To your subconscious mind, when manifesting, these meanings don’t matter. The repetition of a story is what matters when rewriting your beliefs. You can rewrite your beliefs to create a new story for yourself at any time, but to do this, you must let go of your limiting beliefs. You cannot create a new story for yourself while still claiming it’s not possible. This is how desires get delayed. This is how you create hot and cold, inconsistent results in your reality. It’s like having one foot in one reality and the other in a completely different reality.
Ever heard the phrase ‘You can’t serve two masters’? The same applies when creating a new story for yourself. Do you have your desire? Or do you not? If you want it, claim it. You must make a conscious decision to close out the old story and replace it with the story that you desire.
When you consciously think new thoughts, you change your story. When you change your story, your reality will change to reflect this.
If these manifestation mistakes feel familiar to you, you’re not alone. I’ve been there – a lot. As have many others.
These shifts in awareness are part of the journey to greater understanding of how to manifest with ease ( and without a million unnecessary extra steps) as you shift into the remembrance of just how powerful you are.
We are all creators, and when we recognise and claim this truth, we can consciously create beautiful experiences for ourselves.
It is often not that you are manifesting your desires completely wrong. It is likely you are just lacking the simple, universal, foundational framework that can be applied to any desire — regardless of your specific desires, regardless of your circumstances and regardless of how much resistance you feel you have toward what you desire. That way, you don’t need to consume endless content, try tons of different techniques and overthink your manifestations.
Once you understand the simple framework, you can apply it to whatever you wish to create for yourself, without overworking and without overthinking the process.
