Hi everyone,

I am new to manifesting/LOA, etc. I certainly do believe it. I'm not sure whether I believe it is a spiritual endevour, psychological or both (both I would assume). But, I do believe it.

Here is my issue. After I meditate for about 15-20 minutes I read over a list of positive affirmations and then go through my manifesting. For instance, I just started the $1,000,000 experiment. While going though the affirmations and manifestations I hear a little voice state, "hogwash. You'll never acculmulate $1,000,000." Or I can feel a resistance to the affirmations. For instance, I lack self-confidence so in my affirmation when I state, "I am confident" I feel myself recoil from the statement. (I know you'll chastise me for stating that I am not confident as it re-inforces the belief but I need to explain my situation

)

I REALLY want my life to improve and I believe I'm on the right path, but how do I get rid of these negative thoughts. They truly just "pop" in my head. I've only been doing this for a few days, so perhaps over time the negative voice will stop.

As anyone else dealt with this? How do I overcome it?

Thank you!
