This is kind of deep, but I believe most desires come from our higher selves/God/Source and these desires are meant to be fulfilled so that we can fulfill our true purpose and live our greatest life.

I meditate on my desires and decide whether they're coming from my ego or my higher self. If they're coming from my higher self then I know they absolutely have to manifest and that it's "meant to be". 

For me, it's tough to maintain the faith when there are no physical signs of my desire manifesting. When I get in that space I meditate and confirm that the desire is from my higher self and then I'm at ease. Also, something is only a sign if you think it's a sign. So, I also manifest signs when I'm not as strong in my faith.

I know that.   But I mean.  You know how some don't know if it's a true desire or an obsession

If thinking about it makes you happy or if it doesn't make you upset, it's a desire.
Whereas when you think about an obsession, it will make you upset. It's as simple as that.

What if it makes you both happy and upset at times?


Thankfully, all my major desires make me feel happy when I think about them 80-90 percent of the time


At times, I still get caught up in current reality but I'm improving that
