mainifestation deadline

[selenaj12]

hello
i heard there is such thing as setting a deadline for when you want something to manifest
now my question is that will this help speed up the process or will it contradict with the universe as a sign of me not having enough faith?
you know i'm just being curios
thank you for you answers

Good question!  I haven't been good at deadlines.  Depending on where I am emotionally and the baggage I have been caring will determine when and how I get what I ask for.

My concern is that setting a deadline creates attachment. When the deadline is nearing, and one doesn't have what he wants, he may start to worry and cling to the idea that it has to happen at that time. One of the keys to the loa is detachment - the opposite of detachment. My advice would be not to set a deadline (although you can think 'wouldn't it be nice if it happened by this time?' but don't be married to it) and then relax!

Hello and blessings,

I want to second what Sandy said about deadlines and detachment. While some may be able to do it, a firm deadline could be a source of anxiety for a lot of people, which will sabotage their overall efforts. I have a friend who wanted to manifest a large sum of money by a date and failed. When he went back and reflected on it, he realized the date itself had been a negative one for him based on his past. He let go of that or any date and ended up manifesting the money a short time later. I'd be interested to hear from people in the forum who have successfully set a date and how they did it.

thank you all so much for you insite
i have had experience with the deadline thing and it just left me in total distress when it didn't happen on that particular date.
my main goal is learning how to let go and relax because i want everything here and now it has been a challenge
what are some tips that can help me fix that
