Why is it that the more you want something the less you get it?

frustrating as well. I’m not like that Like I know exactly when I really want something and why and that exact thing I don’t get. It makes me so mad

Has it ever happened to you Gems?

Like I feel that everytime I really want something and not want it because someone else has it, but because it makes me feel a certain way I don’t get it. I’m not necesarily talking about guys here...

It’s just so frustrating I swear. I’m a positive person and I always believe in the things I want and I have faith, but still it does not happen.

What do you think?

With me, the more I have something the less I want it... Or the easier it is to get something, the faster I lose interest. Except for someone special but that's one thing I have zero control over.

What kinds of things are you talking about specifically, an example? The post is too cryptic

I find that I get whatever I want in most cases

I'm really stubborn, so I don't give up on my goals and I am not a quitter. And I'm impulsive, so I have to get what I want when I want it, but accordingly, sometimes I jump the gun and act too fast.

Take what you want! Believe in yourself, and the power of manifesting your desires.

It's all in your mental attitude.. If you keep telling yourself that you can't or won't achieve something, then it's going to be very difficult to gain what you want. It's all about the positive mental attitude.. I know because I have a terrible PMA and feed myself soo much negative talk.. things don't often work out the way I want them to either.. but I have no one but myself to blame for that. We control our own destiny.. you just have to make it work for you.

When I get what I want - it loses its value for me.

I don’t think it’s the same with love interests. Just material possessions...
