You only attract what is best for you
You attract what is best for you. Let me explain.
I was thinking back on things I’ve successfully manifested and one thing— which for the longest time i believed i was NOT able to manifest came to my mind. And then i changed my perspective and thought about the situation from a different angle and realised that my manifestation had actually come true but just in a different (and tbh, way better) way.
In the first year of high school i wanted to score 90% above really badly because the students who get those grades used to get a special “scholar tie” in a huge ceremony held specially for them and wearing that tie had been the coolest thing at school so i was really persistent. I used to do SATS every night and repeated affirmation. But at the end of the year i was 2% short and i didn’t get the tie. I was really heartbroken and swore manifesting doesn’t work.
Cut to final year of high school and i stood 3rd in my entire school with being number one scorer in 3 subjects. I was not actively manifesting anything because i knew i was prepared and that it would be easy for me to do (though in hindsight i agree that mindset itself helped me achieve that). Me and my father were invited as guests in a function and i was given a huge plaque in front the school and teachers (way cooler ceremony than the scholar tie one)
But the scholar tie always remained in my mind. I always wondered why i didnt get it even when i worked so hard for it. Then a few days back it suddenly hit me. Right after the first year of high school ended, COVID 19 pandemic happened and schools didn’t reopen for 1.5 years. So entirety of 2 year and half of 3rd year of high school. Even if i had gotten the grades to get the scholar tie, the ceremony wouldn’t have happened and it would’ve been way worse, finally having the grades to get the tie but never actually receive it. It would’ve DEVASTATED me. So instead of a scholar tie, i was given something much better though it took more time than i expected. It completely shifted my perspective on Manifestation and Law of attraction.
