I think this can be interpreted in different ways. One can be that we sort of go in the direction we’re looking, and there’s evidence to back that up. You don’t just magically become a nuclear scientist just like you don’t magically become an actor. It usually takes years of dedication and focus.
Another is that if we just ‘will’ it into being, then it will be so. I don’t think this is really accurate of reality.
I mean, I’m coming from a background sceptical of the law of attraction because it’s just repackaging having goals to sell self help books. How do you become a nuclear scientist? Step 1) step 2) step 3) etc.
The law of attraction is new speak used to sell known principles to people, in my opinion. Manifestation, in my opinion, is the same thing but coming at it from a crystals vibe rather than the self help vibe of the law of attraction.
I don’t mean to be a jerk about it, hence all the in my opinions, but as I said, I am very skeptical of the usage and utilization of the concept of manifestation.
All that said, you’re not wrong. The principle is valid and it does work, but it’s mustering the discipline to stick to those goals, that’s the secret that everyone is looking for. Idk I feel like I’m starting to ramble, do you have any points/counter points to any of this?
I don’t really subscribe to it either. I just think it’s a fine example of something that can be interpreted multiple ways and different people will get different things from those interpretations.

Absolutely, I totally agree with you.
