The Impact of Negative Manifestation

The art of manifesting is nothing new; it’s the act of thinking something into existence through continuous repetition of that thing.

It’s the idea of waking up every morning and, whilst brushing your teeth, telling yourself that you will be a millionaire repeatedly until your actions start to compound and the thing you keep telling yourself becomes a reality.

Manifesting isn’t just done by mental people; everyone from Connor McGregor to Oprah Winfrey to Arnold Schwarzenegger swears by manifestation as a method that allows them to achieve their wildest dreams.

But negative manifestation is something that you likely haven’t heard of.

Instead of bringing something into existence, you’re taking a pessimistic approach and asking yourself why the goal you’re working towards will go wrong.

For example, if you want to launch your own product, you need to ask yourself, Why will this fail? Why will this crash and burn before my very eyes? What would the reason be?

Asking yourself these questions allows you to identify the reason why it could fail, and once those are uncovered, it gives you a list of things that you need to make sure that you don’t let go or fix sooner rather than later.

It seems like a miserable way to look at your goals, but without considering the possible downsides and preparing for ways to combat them, you’re blindsiding yourself.

Pretending that nothing could go wrong is just naive, and so doing the opposite and figuring out how to eliminate the possibility of that happening is just covering all your corners.

Thanks for reading.
