In this Readers Questions video, a reader asks what to do when none of their major manifestations seem to be budging. Everyone else seems to be having success with the law of attraction, but they just seem to be stuck. How can you overcome such major resistance?

Hey, everyone. This is Brandon Olivares from Co-Creation Coaching, and I am here today with another Readers Questions video. These Readers Questions videos are my chance every week to answer your questions about the law of attraction. If you would like to ask a question about the law of attraction to be answered on one of these videos, you can go to darkascent.org/ask and submit your question there.
[00:40] Question
Today’s question is about what to do when things just aren’t moving for you very quickly, if at all. What to do if you just can’t see progress.
Our reader asks:
My biggest struggle is I don’t seem to see my top 10 list (relationship, money, home, etc) manifesting. I get little things that I wish for but the things that I visualise daily are just not happening! I became really frustrated at one point and just let it all go, didn’t want to think about my dreams anymore and while it helped me feel so much happier and lighter I’m still waiting for the Universe to work things out miraculously for me.

Been 2 1/2 years and wondering why other people say certain things work so quick for them (like scripting, affirmations before sleep, act as if, etc) but nothing happening for me?? I’ve tried it all and researched tons about LOA.
[01:40] Answer
Well, actually, this is a very common question, so I’m very happy that you asked it. A lot of people, I think, are kind of in that limbo where they’re trying to manifest something big. They’ve maybe seen small manifestations here and there, but overall they aren’t seeing too many results with big manifestations, the things that really matter to them.
That’s really why I do the work that I do, because so many people are not getting the results they want to get in life with the big manifestations. It’s really those big manifestations that matter the most. We don’t study the LOA in order to get easy parking places and things like that. We get it or use it to manifest money, ideal relationships, better health, perfect house or car, or whatever else it is that you want. We want to manifest those things that really matter to us.
So what happens when you just aren’t seeing progress with these things in life? Like I said, it’s a very common issue that I’ve seen. In fact, I would say just about all my clients who are working with me are those who are in this exact situation. Prior to working with me, they just weren’t seeing situations working out in their lives. They just weren’t having success with manifesting the big things they wanted.
[03:11] Letting Go by Giving Up on Your Desire Usually Doesn’t Work
I want to mention a few things regarding this that I think are important for your situation and anyone who is experiencing this similar sort of circumstance. Firstly, that is when you say you let go of things and felt really good but nothing came of it, I want to address that first. I think this is a tactic that a lot of people try. They try to let go entirely. They try to say, “If I just let go of my problems, if I just let go of this desire, then it will come to me.”
I think that is because a lot of law of attraction teachers say, “As long as you feel good, even if you’re not focusing on this exact thing, it will come.” That’s never been something that has worked for me. That’s never been something that I’ve encouraged in my clients or on my blog. In my opinion, it doesn’t work. Yes, when you let go, you’re going to feel better, obviously, because you have this thing you want. You don’t have it. So as long as you want it, you’re not going to feel good. As soon as you let go of wanting that or at least try to let go of wanting it, you’re going to feel better.
But, in most cases (not necessarily in every case), it’s not going to change anything for you. All you’re going to do is move on without that goal. If it’s important to you, that might be difficult. You might ask, “Why don’t I have it? I let go of it, but nothing is happening. Why is that?”
[05:02] Create a Broader Vision, and Hold It
I’ve talked about this a lot, but the important thing is that when you’re manifesting something big, you need a vision. You need a vision for the future. You need to know exactly what you want and why you want it.
What does that do for you when you have that? When you have that sort of vision, it will be a little uncomfortable because you don’t have it yet, but when you’re able to embrace that tension and discomfort of not having this thing yet, then everything changes. Having that vision, holding it persistently, and making it non-negotiable (as I used to say) pulls you forward. It opens a pathway in your reality to bring those things to you, to find the quickest way of bringing those things to you.
The thing you need to do is not to let go entirely, but to learn how to hold that vision while still being okay where you are. When I say “okay where you are,” I don’t mean that you say, “Well, I don’t have it yet, and that’s okay. I don’t really want it.” You don’t do that.
What I mean is that you find a way to be at peace with where you are now. You find a way to be grateful for the things you already have. Maybe you don’t like the job you have now, but what can you be grateful for in life? You’re staying in this nice, easy flowing state. If you’re resisting reality, it can’t change. Whatever you push against is going to last. [laughs] You have that cliché saying, “Whatever you resist, persists,” but it’s absolutely true. As long as you’re resisting current reality, it’s going to persist.
When you let go—in this case, I mean letting go of the resistance, letting go of needing things to be different right this second. That’s what I mean by letting go. If you can let go of needing things to be different right this second but still holding on to this vision, then things will shift much, much, much more quickly. That’s a really important thing to keep in mind.
I think that’s probably where you went wrong. That vision was causing stress for you. Instead of letting go of the stress, you let go of the vision. If you let go of the vision, it’s not going to happen because it’s no longer pulling you forward. It’s no longer creating that tension in you that’s going to shift reality.
[07:41] It’s About Principles, Not Techniques
Okay, so the other thing that I want to mention is that it’s not about the techniques. I try to focus on principles, not techniques, because as long as you know the principles, the techniques really don’t matter. I shift among several different techniques all the time, but I know immediately if they’re going to work or not based on the underlying principles. If they fulfill those underlying principles, then they’re going to work. If they don’t, then they won’t work.
It’s not about trying to do affirmations, visualize, scripting, or whatever else that you might think of. Which one works the best? It’s not about that. It’s about what are the underlying principles, and what techniques will work for me the best so that I can manifest my desire as quickly as possible.
So don’t worry about the techniques that people are using. Don’t worry about the act as if, visualization, affirmations, or whatever. Those really don’t matter. In fact, I’ve used none of those in the past and still got my manifestations. I’ve gotten my manifestations by very, very basic techniques. So the techniques don’t matter.
What matters is: Do you understand the underlying principles beyond the techniques. Do you understand why these techniques work? Why do they work when they do work for people, and why aren’t they working for you? These are really important questions, and unfortunately questions I can’t really answer in a Readers Question because I don’t know your situation. I don’t know what you’re dealing with. I don’t know how you’re using these techniques. As I said before, I am guessing that you’re resisting current reality and that’s why it wasn’t working for you. When you let go of the vision, you got better, but I don’t know how you’re using these techniques that they’re not working. That’s something I find out either in a group setting or a private coaching setting or something like that.
What you need to do is learn the basic principles, which I teach on my blog, in private coaching, in coaching groups, and whatnot. Learn these principles. Then you’ll know why it’s not working for you.
I want to take a minute and invite you. I have a program I’m setting up: a private mastermind where we get to really study in-depth the law of attraction. It’s going to be going on about—I’m accepting signups for it for the next week for the early bird for this program. We’ll have really special bonuses, a discount, and things like that. I want to invite you, anyone who’s listening to this, to come over and either schedule a call with me so I can talk to you about your exact needs and what might work for you the best or just to come over and sign up for this mastermind. It really is an awesome opportunity for the right people.
If you really want to learn these principles and know why the law of attraction isn’t working for you, then it will be an awesome opportunity for you. If you want to schedule a call with me to discuss this and what will be the best fit for you, then you can go to darkascent.org/consultation, C-O-N-S-U-L-T-A-T-I-O-N to set up a consultation call. Or, if you just want to check out this 6-month mastermind group called “Manifest Your Destiny Mastermind,” you can go to darkascent.org/destiny.
I hope this answered your question. It’s a really important one that a lot of people face, but if you just learn what the principles are and not let your own resistance get in the way but still hold on to that vision persistently, then you will get there. I really hope this helps. Again, if you have questions you’d like to ask, go to darkascent.org/ask and I’ll be happy to answer those. Once again, I am Brandon Olivares from Co-Creation Coaching. As always, anything is possible.
