That Darned Manifestation "Lag Time"

One of the most frustrating things on the path of mastery can be the time it takes to manifest things. From the time I decide to manifest something, and when it actually shows up usually seems to be a crapshoot. At worst, it seems like God/dess/etc. is/aren't listening, or the Universe doesn't have my back, or...some other intangible variable?? But at best, it does seem like a crapshoot.

But it isn't.

The time it takes to manifest something is dependent upon one's base-line vibration. How happy and empowered I am in general as I suit up and show up and go about my day is usually quite different than how I feel when I sit in meditation and vibe away on how amazing it feels to have my heart's desires fulfilled. While these short bursts of high vibration and concentration are important, they do not dictate the swiftness of my manifestations. It is definitely the long term average that is the deciding factor.

Yes, it's that simple.

However, why one's base-line vibe isn't higher, and that it can take so darn long for things to manifest is extremely complex, with the main culprit being unconscious beliefs.

The thorniest beliefs though are the conscious ones that we don't realize are an issue. For example, I was so married to the belief that I had to fight tooth and nail in order to get my needs met, that I was difficult to deal with a lot of the time, for no discernible reason. Even a coworker said to me more than once "You don't have to be so tough."

When I finally did the work to let it go and try on something new, new energy just came flooding in! I was astounded at how much faster and easier manifestation became.

And it is my experience from speaking people who are new on the path of Mastery that sheer willingness to delve into the uncharted realm of beliefs can be too much to ask. This ends up being the difference between being on the path of Mastery, and continuing to flirt with victimhood. The novice tends to prefer being right, or justified in their situation, rather than up to the task of transforming it. The advanced students of the Laws of Attraction are just no longer willing to settle for less than their Divine birthrights: Happiness, health, peace and prosperity, and are willing to go to any lengths to get them.

The good news is that God/dess/etc. and the Universe have indeed got your back and give unconditional support, all the time, every time!
