"You create your reality"

[Minyatur]

I think trouble with manifestation often comes from that self lies to itself on a conscious level in what it desires.

Say that for example you believe that you desire to be alone and wish that there was no others, well that is a lie because on a deeper layer of your mind you desire much much more to experience what it is to know others than you can dellude yourself in thinking you desire otherwise. You already fully know what it's like to be alone and are manifesting to yourself a reality of otherwise as proof your desire otherwise.
