Can Grindr Help You Manifest Your Vision Of The Future?

If you are like me, you spend an embarrassing amount of time scrolling through the faceless torsos photoshopped faces of the men around you on Grindr (and/or Scruff). Walking to the store? Open up Grindr and see who's on nearby. Waiting in line at the post office? Scroll through Grindr and check out that hot guy 300 feet away. Headed to bed? Just check out Grindr one more time to see if anyone replied to your messages. 

How many hours a day or in a week do you spend staring at those guys' profile pictures? Be honest! It's a lot, right? All that time adds up, and in a week's time, you may have spent literally hours daydreaming about these gorgeous men, mentally making inventory of the guys in your vicinity. And if you tend to block the fellows with whom there just isn't any vibe, then you have boiled down your screen to an elite set of attractive (to you) men whose faces you commit to memory through repeated viewing day after day on Grindr.

Now think of a vision board and how it helps you to manifest your dreams. Some people claim that vision boards are a critical step on the road to success. Putting images of your dreams in front of you so they are right in front of you every day is supposed to help drive your thoughts toward achieving those goals. 

You could be using Grindr the same way, only you might be setting yourself up for one disappointment after another. You're subconsciously trying to manifest these men into your sex life, but what about their goals? What if you don't meet their criteria for sexual attraction? You could be setting your dreams on a bunch of shallow men who are never going to hook up with you no matter how charming you are. 

Just be careful and mindful of the images you fill your mind with each day. Set your sights on attainable goals and don't pin your hopes on those pretty torsos on a hookup app. Don't let yourself become disappointed by repeated rejection. Create a real vision board with pictures of the things you want to manifest for yourself and use that to replace the burned in images you've scrolled through so often.
