The Manifestor
Some 9% of the world’s population are
categorized as a manifestor in human design
terms.
Manifestors
often feel different from other people and
often wonder why. They have access to
incredible power which can be turned on
suddenly and without warning. This can
sometimes frighten other people and at times,
even the manifestor themselves!
Manifestors
have to be in control of their lives and really
hate anyone to tell them what to do or how to
do it. They need as much freedom as
possible to live their life and to carve out
their own destiny according to their own rules.
They are not here to wait, they are here to
initiate and have impact on others and the
world around them. If they don’t get the
freedom of action that they need then watch
out!
As a child many manifestors were restricted by
parents, teachers and other significant adults
in their lives who thought that they were
either troublesome or difficult in some way.
The response of these adults was to try and
control the manifestor child either physically
(by restricting their freedom of movement) or
with very strict rules. Unfortunately, they
thought they were taking care of and
helping the manifestor child. They had no idea
that this child already knew what it wanted to
do and when it wanted to do it. Of course, for
all children, some rules are important but too
many can also be very damaging, especially for
manifestor children. For the manifestor child
the creation of significant artificial
restrictions by the adults in their life
usually has a devastating effect on the psyche
of the manifestor later in life. To the
manifestor child it just felt as if they were
being punished and they often grew up as very
angry and often ‘misplaced’ people; distancing
themselves from others.
Some manifestors go completely the other way
and become people pleasers to avoid the
difficult confrontations that they may have had
as a child.
Neither way of living is healthy for a
manifestor.
Some manifestors, particularly men, can also
become violent and very angry because of being
controlled and restricted as a child. They can
react very strongly to anyone in their
adult life who is trying to or is even
perceived to be trying to control or manipulate
them in some way.
Manifestors
are very sensitive and ‘tuned in’ when they are
allowed to be themselves. They have a
natural curiosity and are the only type that
can truly initiate action
freely.
Much of our world society rewards “doers” but
in truth only manifestors can initiate action
and ‘do something’ without having to wait in
some way. And it is healthy for them to be this
way! It is very unhealthy for the other 91% of
the world to initiate in this way.
But even manifestors need to be involved with
other people! In order to survive in a world of
people who have no idea who they are and
actually immediately distrust manifestors
(because of their repelling aura) it is best to
have a strategy to over come
this.
Human Design stipulates that the ideal strategy
for manifestors is to ‘inform others before you
act’. Which is sensible advice? In practice
this strategy to a manifestor is like putting a
red rag in front of a bull!
I know several manifestors who still hate to do
this because they think that they are in some
way having to ask for permission to do what
they want to do. Permission is something a
manifestor detests having to ask for! It brings
up all their childhood horror stories of
control!
I always suggest to manifestors that they start
informing with the phrase “I’m just letting you
know…….” . Don’t use something like “Do you
mind…” or “Is it ok with you….”
“I’m just letting you know…….” is what
informing is all about. You are not asking
permission, you are just stating a fact about
what you are about to do.
So in essence this is all that the manifestor
strategy requires. Just tell those affected
what you are about to do and then do it!
The only difference is for child manifestors.
The strategy of a child Manifestor is that they
should learn to ask permission, which can then
naturally become informing as they get older.
Each ‘type’ of human being has a strategy and
this one for manifestors is in a way the most
artificial – unlike the strategies of the other
‘types’ which are critical elements for living
correctly as themselves.
Manifestors
will still be able to initiate healthily
whether they inform or not but what this
strategy will do is reduce the confrontations
that manifestors can encounter. To avoid
confrontation all a manifestor has to remember
is to let people know; keep people informed of
your intentions and actions. This process
of informing others will usually stop people
from getting in the way or trying to control
the manifestor because they don’t know what is
coming next. Informing will also greatly reduce
the manifestors own tendency toward anger
because people will not be giving them as many
reasons to get angry anymore.
Although this is a very useful strategy some
manifestors can take it a little too far. They
inform anyone and everyone. But In reality it
is only desirable to inform those people that
will actually be affected by your imminent
action. It is not desirable at all to tell
everyone all the time what you are up to!
The future for manifestors
Since the beginning of human-kind manifestors
were the rulers, the law-makers and the
decision makers. Power was the order of
the day and manifestors always win when it
comes down to displays of pure raw ‘always on’
power. They can explode with a terrific burst
of energy from a state of standstill in a
microsecond!
But in today’s world the emphasis is on
entrepreneurs, democracy, sharing, cooperation,
decentralized power. Absolute rulers are not
welcome at all!
The purpose of being a manifestor seems to have
been taken away and the new world order has
been taken over by the other types.
Projectors are our natural guides and
democratic leaders. Generators and manifesting
generators are the builders who are starting to
learn that they are just as powerful as
manifestors if they follow their strategies
effectively. Even Reflectors have value roles
to play in today’s society. But manifestors?
Where do they fit in now?
I think this change in the role of the pure
manifestor is a real opportunity for them to
evolve.
Manifestors
who are born today have the opportunity to
relax, be free and have fun in their lives!
Instead of being the autocratic rulers they can
be measured by the initiating impact they have
on the world. They can initiate great projects
and endeavors but will rarely stick with them
right to the end. The baton usually must be
passed to the generator group who have the
staying power. But without the initial force
and power that manifestors bring many projects
would never get started in the first place.
Manifestors
are still the only type of human being designed
to freely initiate and with no precedent. Out
of the blue, quite unexpectedly they see
something and it happens. What a valuable
quality to have. They can be relied upon to
break out from the crowd, to break the mould,
to try something new and different.
If manifestors are given this level of freedom
they will really be able to bring their unique
qualities into this world.
Manifestors
have no set pattern of work. They are not
designed to work 9 to 5 day after day until
they die. The world needs people that can do
that…but they are not manifestors.
Manifestors
can make money easily and naturally in all
sorts of different and unique ways. And because
of their desire not to be controlled by others
they usually work for themselves eventually.
Manifestors
are fast! Most manifestors find the pace of
life very slow; it is as if life is in slow
motion around them. Everything, including
their breathing, is faster in a manifestor
body!
So fear not all you millions of manifestors out
there. With the advent of global communications
and infrastructure coupled to your ability to
manifest freely at great speed, and alone, a
world of opportunity awaits both now and in the
future!
Manifestors
still have a very important place in this world
and (as I am sadly reading on many Internet
sites) are certainly not ready to be put out to
pasture and quietly retire from the world now
that th
eir place as rulers has gone!
Don’t believe that for a minute!
The manifestor is perfectly designed to operate
beautifully in the complex and technologically
connected world that we live
in!
