Default Always falling short of my intentions...why?

I have found with some intentions that I always fall short of achieving them in some manner. It feels that the universe teases me by giving me something to entice me and when I take action, there is a delay or the intention might vanish completely or is out of reach.

For example if I want a new bike, someone mentions to me that they are selling their bike at a really cheap price, which is eaxctly what I want, then at the last minute they change their mind. The universe always seems to communicate this to me. So I am unsure as to whether:

* I am having conflicting thoughts ie, not in alignment with my intention?
* I need to work on that aspect of my personality that perhaps also falls short of following through or committing to seeing things through?
* The intention is still evolving?
* Should I be practicing detachment or allowing?
* Should I change the way I look at it? ie my focus on reality?
* Is my intention strong enough? ie emotions

I tend to start visualising things rather quickly after I set the intention. For example I might visualise myself riding the bike along the beach and feel the breeze on my face etc. I'm not sure though if this is attachment though?

Thoughts/suggestions?

Look into and study the fear of success.

ie. Let's say you proved to yourself that LoA actually exists 100% and you can manifest whatever you want in life, what does that mean to your life...for example:
- Who is God? What is God? Does God/Universe give me what I want, or am I manifesting what I want?
- What else am I manifesting if I manfest stuff?
- Did I manifest September 11th? Why?
- Am I the only one who exists?


It may seem like you're "just manifesting a mountain bike", which may not seem like a big deal, but it's just as crazy as holding out your hand and a penny appearing in your palm out of thin air. How would that change your life?

Study the fear of success. Particuarly, your fear of success that LoA and Manifesting actually exist.

tfahkry,

"Always falling short of my intentions...why?"

It is my believe that all you need to do is stop using the statement above.

You may need something more positive like "I will foccus more on my intemtions."
