See, typically you will put a lot of thought energy into your desire.

When it doesn't manifest, you will tend to put a lot of thought into why it didn't happen. Which means you're focusing in the opposite direction (bad, bad).

It's much preferable to simply detach and say, "I'm ok if this doesn't happen", and get on with your life.

Because you probably won't put a lot of thought energy into "I'm ok if this doesn't happen". YET it will serve the critical function of preventing you from swerving into the opposite direction (of focusing on your lack).

In other words, it is best to focus positively on your intention. It is worst to focus negatively on your intention. If you cannot do the best thing, you should still avoid doing the worst thing. Just drop the focus completely and go do other stuff in your life.

Remember, the positive intention you'd earlier placed into the universe is still out. Leave it alone, and it may still do its job. Negatively focus, and you will just kill it completely.
