Ok. Breathe. There is no expectation here. And you do not ever have to manifest anything if you don\u2019t feel ready. While it is true that you should craft your requests carefully, a few best practices can help you get over this fear of your own power. First, let me say that your fear of your own power is healthy. This is a good thing and will make sure you craft your requests carefully. It tells me that you understand the extent of your influence. That being said, we really do want to be careful. What you fear is that …<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(1) you will not get what you want, causing you to doubt your influence and your entire growth process. What if it doesn\u2019t work? Solution: you will get it. Just start small. Imagine a small, inexpensive product that would make your life easier. Work your way up to the bigger stuff like jobs, relationships, finance, etc. You don\u2019t have to believe it will work. If you do it right, it works every time. Start small and simple. This is a skill you are building.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(2) you will get what you want, but because your request was based on a negative emotion, you will get it under negative circumstances. Solution: analyze your motivations carefully. Make requests from a place of joy, love, connection or other positive emotions. AND, add to the end of your request that it should come in a healthy, peaceful and joyous way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Remember that requests that forward your purpose are most quickly and easily granted. So if in doubt about what to ask for, try asking for \u201cthat which forwards my purpose, in a healthy, peaceful and joyous way.\u201d But most of all, dive in and give it a try. The more your practice, the more your confidence will grow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
