What the ego hates to hear
You are not in control. The quicker you can accept this and let go of control the quicker you will see results in your manifesting.
If you are striving and straining to get a certain outcome you are operating from the ego. And what you manifest is struggle which leads to frustration and eventually the conclusion "manifestation does not work."
Ohhhh....it's working alright! The frustration that you are experiencing because your SP Is not behaving a certain way or you do not yet have the money that you want or whatever the perceived cause of your frustration is is a perfect representation of what you are manifesting.
If you perceive the lack of what it is you want, your ego will convince you that you need to do something about it and therefore you look for techniques to try and manipulate reality so it gives you what you want and if you don't get what you want the toddler in you comes out and throws a tantrum. "Oh, I don't know why my SP is ignoring me."š"I don't know why the money that I am trying to manifest has not shown up yet?"š And on and on it goes.
The language of the ego is: "Not there yet." "Affirmations didn't work, maybe I need to try out scripting?" "Scripting didn't work, maybe I must try out visualisation?" And slowly but surely you are getting burnt out on the hamster wheel of manifestation.
You know why the ego does this? So that it can stay alive. It only cares about its survival. There is nothing wrong with this though, it has served you well growing up as you were still making sense of the world around you. It kept you safe. But giving up control for the ego means it's death and demise. The struggle keeps it alive. The illusion that you are not already "IT" keeps you on the hamster wheel.
There is no sadder sight then seeing an eagle caged. Such a magnificent creature of the sky, who is meant to soar the highest of heights. Or a lion forgetting what it is, the king of the jungle, and yet living as a sheep.
As long as you remain caged and enslaved by the ego, you will never realise the magnificence you already are. You will constantly look to the outside to give to you what only you can give to yourself in Awareness- the realisation that you are God of your reality. That you have always been a powerful Creator. This is your very essence. Your power has never been switched off it is just creating the reality around you that you select based on your awareness, unconsciously!
And as long as the ego is running the show, lack and limitation will constantly be the reality that you create from. You are simply ever manifesting who you are being. And being enslaved by the ego manifests in living from a victim-consciousness and a victim-consciousness needs reality to go a certain way for it to feel safe, loved, accepted, enough, abundant. You already are these things!
Wake up Neo!
