Skip terraform resource if it exists

I'm Getting an error creating a secret because it was created manually.

Error: error creating Secrets Manager Secret: ResourceExistsException: The operation failed because the secret  already exists.

Is there any way to tell Terraform to skip creating a resource if it already exists ?

after terraform 0.12 we have ways to control it using lifecycle we can simply skip resource by setting up lifecycle

resource "aws_instance" "web" {
    ami = "foo"
    lifecycle {
        ignore_changes = ["ami"]
    }
}

Here is the link of bug
