Manifesting is a powerful tool for goal achievement, but it can be frustrating when things don’t seem to work out as expected. If you’ve ever found yourself wondering, “Why is my manifestation not working?” you’re not alone. Many people misunderstand the essence of manifesting, leading to common mistakes that block their success. In this article, I’ll share the top three manifesting mistakes most people make and how to avoid them to achieve your goals.

1. Dreaming Without Doing
A prevalent mistake in manifesting is believing that dreaming alone is enough. While visualizing your goals and feeling into them is important, action is essential for bringing those dreams to life. Manifestation is not just about thinking or being; it requires doing. The bigger the dream, the more likely there is a lot of action you’ll need to take to achieve it.
However, not all actions are created equal. The key is to take aligned action—those steps that resonate with your intuition and are strategically designed to move you closer to your goals. Hustling without direction can lead to burnout, while aligned action keeps you on the fastest track to achieving your goals.
2. Misaligned Energy and Frequency
Another common mistake in manifesting is having energy and/or a frequency that doesn’t match your goal. According to the Law of Vibration, everything in the universe vibrates at a certain frequency, and the Law of Creation (or Law of Attraction) states that like attracts like. This means that your energy and frequency need to align with the frequency of your goal for manifestation to work.
Your energy is created by your identity and will be consistent over time, and needs to match the person you will need to be to create your goal. Contrary to what most people believe, your current state of emotion does not create your energy. Your identity does.
Your goal has a frequency. If your personal frequency is not at least as high as the frequency of your goal, you won’t be able to create and hold onto that goal.

3. Quitting Too Soon
The final mistake is giving up too early. Manifestation requires patience, as outlined by the Law of Gestation. Just like a seed needs time to grow roots before it sprouts and bears fruit, your goals need time to come to fruition. It’s easy to get discouraged and quit when results don’t appear immediately, but persistence is key.
Manifesting is more than just visioning and feeling into your desires. This is a false narrative created by people who think this will help match the frequency of the goal. It won’t. It requires taking aligned action, maintaining an identity and frequency that matches your goals persistence and belief in your dream as well as your ability to create it.
By avoiding these common mistakes, you’ll be better equipped to achieve your goals and manifest the life you desire.
