To think that manifestation works?

I'd love to hear your experiences if so!
I'd dearly love a life partner . I am 50 and divorced. I am setting intentions and doing all the recommended work .
I've had great success manifesting small sums in f money and good health outcomes so I'm just wondering 💭 f it's unreasonable to think it is absolutely a thing or just coincidental sillyness

Sort of yes. But you can't just wish for something and sit back. You have to make it happen.

So in your example, someone invites you to the theatre. You're not that fussed about it but you don't have any other plans. You manifest that the night will introduce you to someone new. You then look out for the opportunity whilst you're there.

Now I'm not saying it's 100% successful 100% of the time. But put yourself in situations where you might meet someone like minded by saying yes to opportunities.

I met DH by doing a course that as it turns out is not really anything to do with what we do for a living. But right place right time.

You have to actively work towards things you want, not just expect.

But it's a good way to focus on goals.

it “Works” in the sense that if you focus on things and tell lots of people you want something then it is more likely to happen because you’re putting effort into it.

but wishes/prayers/manifesting don’t work beyond that

I did think it was nonsense but my husband believes in it and has been successful recently in a business venture which he has put down to manifestation. I think it was down to bloody hard work and positive thinking though

I can't categorically say if it's real or not but I've done it a great deal sometimes unintentionally. Every year for example I do a vision board and for the last few years I've achieved everything on there. I haven't actively sought out a partner through manifesting but I feel if you put in you'll get out, so if you're actively putting out the feelers for a new partner and hold your values I can't see why you couldn't get an ideal partner! Good luck, you can't fail by trying x x

That’s intersting! How did you manifest money!? You just wished for it ??

I'll join you in manifesting a partner, one for me and one for you!
