3 Reasons your visualization isn’t working

Visualization is incredibly powerful to create and manifest the life of your dreams. When we visualize we use our imagination to experience something now that isn’t actually happening is our physical reality.

Why would we do this, you might ask.

I’ll tell you. Visualization, when done correctly, creates whatever we desire in the most easy and effortless way possible. 

Understand this:

1. The thing you desire is on an energetic frequency. 
2. You are on an energetic frequency.
3. You attract things to you based on the frequency you are on.
4. If you are not on the same frequency as the thing you desire, you will not attract and ultimately create it in your life.
5. Visualizing (the right way) the thing you desire gets you onto it’s frequency, which then attracts it into your life.

PLEASE REREAD THOSE 5 POINTS AT LEAST 5 TIMES. It’s important that you don’t gloss over this because of the simplicity. It’s one thing to get something and it’s a completely differed thing to know something. If you’re not doing it and seeing the results you don’t know it.

So why isn’t visualization working for you

What I hear from others is that they feel they aren’t “doing” visualization correctly because they aren’t seeing results. Secondly they think the area that they are making the mistake is not seeing pictures or movies during their visualization. For those of you who don’t see things just as if you would if your eyes were open, do not fret! This is not the problem.

The truth is that we are all different and visualization will be unique to you. For some people visualization is like watching a movie in their minds eye. For others it is a sense or a feeling without really seeing any images. Don’t get hung up on these things. These following 3 mistakes are much more important to work through.

3 common mistakes in visualization that most people make:

Lack of Clarity

This seems so simple and straight forward but is such a common “missing piece” for people. If you aren’t clear on what you desire then how can you create visualizations around it? This can be everything from the type of house you desire, the amount of money you want to make, the kind of business or romantic partner you seek or the end result of a sales presentation. From the grand scale to the simple day to day, it’s so valuable to be clear on the outcome you desire.

Lack of Emotion

Oh this is so HUGE!!! If your visualization isn’t emotionalized then it’s not doing anything. The whole reason we visualize is to get us feeling a certain way. Our feeling is how we communicate with the universe. Feeling is vibration and the vibration we are in is what attracts. If you’re feeling like a persnickety old grump then you're in that negative vibration. Then you will attract more and more things in your experience that will generate more and more feelings of persnickety grumpiness. What you desire is to be carefree and happy so you visualize an experience that creates the emotion of happiness and care-freeness in you. What you are doing is enacting an experience through your thoughts that generates the feelings you would experience if you had what you desired. Visualization takes you out of that negative state and shifts you into a positive state so you begin attracting more things that make you feel happy and carefree. 

If your visualization doesn’t change your emotional state it is not a successful visualization. 

Lack of Repetition

There are a few masters our there that can visualize once and their intention manifests but this is rare. It can also work for you every once in a while, especially if you are easy going about the thing you desire and are detached. But what usually is the case is that there is some resistance to manifesting the thing you want. You’ll have doubt and limiting beliefs around it of some sort. So the emotionalized visualization must be repeated until you know the thing you desire is yours. 

The first step is getting yourself in the vibration (the feeling) of the thing you desire. Once you’ve nailed that - perfecto! Then, if you are like most, after you are done visualizing you go back to the person you were before. You still think and feel the same way. So then by repeating the visualization we work ourselves up that vibrational ladder. The first visualization may take us up 5 steps and then we go back down 4 after the visualization is over. The second visualization will take us up another 6 steps but then we go back 3. The third visualization takes us up 10 steps and we go back 5. But you see, even though we slip back down vibrationally after our visualization, we don’t go all the way back. We continually move ourselves up, closer and closer to the vibration of the desire until eventually we are existing mostly on the new vibration - the vibration of the goal. At that point your visualization has actually changed you. You are a new person existing on a different frequency. This is now your attraction point and you will begin seeing the experiences and results of this new person. 

So repetition is also very important to create yourself into the vibration of your desired outcome.

Reflect

Have you been making any of these mistakes? Don’t just read this and then move on. Really look at yourself and see if any of these areas need improvement. Reading isn’t knowing. Understanding with application is knowing. 

Pick something that you desire. Take some time to flesh it out and expand on the details of it. Then enter into visualization and see or get the sense of those details. Have the conversations and hear the person responding and talking with you. Feel your hand on the microphone or the wind bowing through your hair. Smell the sea air. Get yourself into that moment with as much realness as you can muster. Then visualize this every day for as long it takes for it to seem ridiculous that it wouldn’t happen for you. 

Oh and by the way, if your visualization makes you cry, then it’s done. You’ve manifested it vibrationally. It’s only a matter of time before it manifests physically.
