why does shit never happen to me when i actually want it to happen, and only when i stop thinking about it? granted i have a very limited understanding of how manifestation actually works, but isnt the whole idea to consciously be investing positive thoughts ('this WILL happen') into something you want to happen in order to get results? only when i stop thinking about what i want do i actually then get it. sure, maybe something can be said about 'not forcing' things to happen, but you have to have the idea of wanting something to happen to want something in the first place, and only when i give up do i finally get it. ive began trying a reverse psychology route in recent years, actively avoiding/thinking the opposite of what i want to happen, but that doesnt work either. its like reality fucks with me on purpose, only giving me my wants at the least opportune times.

what is supposed to work will work and what's not wont the lesson is to learn how to cope when things don't go your way

this is very true anon, and this is wisdom. but i am greedy for knowledge and wish i could know why things work/dont work.
