I have made lots of guides and posts about the law of assumption and its aspects in the past, however, I have noticed that beginners on the topic have been finding most explanations confusing. I’ve known about the law of assumption for years now and manifestation in general for even longer, so I often forget how it feels to be a complete beginner to the topic. So here I will be explaining the most common topics and how to actually manifest your dream life.
𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐬
𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 — beliefs that you have, which have little or no physical evidence to back them up.
𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐚𝐧 — the spiritual you that is the source of your consciousness.
𝐎𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐚𝐧 — the person you are externally in the 3D (physical) world.
𝟑𝐃 — the physical outer reality. It is only a reflection of your internal reality.
𝟒𝐃 — your internal reality, known as your consciousness, or your imagination.
𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧 (”𝐒𝐏”) — the specific person who you are trying to manifest some sort of relationship with. It can be platonic or romantic, but it most often refers to a desire for a romantic relationship.
𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 (𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬) — It’s a state of mind. It’s a state that you assume by being (or feeling as though you are) the person who has what you already desire.
𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐩𝐭— the beliefs, or conception, you have about yourself and your abilities.
𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 — revision is just manifestation but for the past. You revise—or fix to your liking—a memory in order to manifest that outcome to have occurred instead.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐅𝐮𝐥𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 — the state of the wish fulfilled is the state of mind you would assume if you already had what you desire. You are in the wish fulfilled because you no longer are in a state of desire or lack, and therefore you no longer worry, doubt, or desire.
𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 / 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐳𝐞𝐧 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 — to persist is to not give up. It is a reminder to remain faithful to your manifestation, even if it seems as if something has gone wrong, the opposite has manifested, someone else got what you wanted, or it’s taking “a long time” to manifest. To persist, you remain faithful, keep believing, return to the state of the wish fulfilled, and don’t give up until you get exactly what you wanted.
𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐩𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐮𝐭 (“𝐄𝐈𝐘𝐏𝐎”) — It is the idea that everyone around you will always reflect your internal beliefs (and your self-concept) back towards you. If you believe you are talented and successful, people will reflect that to you through their words and actions. The same will happen if you had negative beliefs about yourself. This is why it’s so important to work on your self-concept.
𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐁𝐨𝐝𝐲 (”𝐃𝐁”) — the body you are trying to manifest (when you are manifesting personal physical changes).
𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐞 (”𝐃𝐅”) — the face you are trying to manifest (when you are manifesting personal physical changes). Can often be based on someone else, such as a celebrity or influencer.

First, I want to talk about what exactly manifestation is. A lot of people who first get into manifestation believe that it’s some sort of magic or outward thing that requires you to take x amount of steps to be worthy of something external from you to make this happen. This isn’t true. Manifestation is your natural ability to shift your consciousness to the reality that matches your assumptions and state. Shifting is easy and natural. You shift every time you make a decision, no matter how small. You do not notice your shifts because they are so minimal that the realities you shift to are nearly identical to the previous one, except for the small detail you changed. You are the source of your manifestations, not anything external. Your inner man (the spiritual you that is the root of your consciousness) is the source of your manifestation abilities. Every single person has the ability to manifest, and no one is better at manifesting than anyone else. Some people just know how to manifest and use it to their advantage. I’m here to teach you how.
Manifestation is most often referred to in relation to getting things, such as getting rich, getting your dream home, getting healthy, getting that dream job, or even getting the person you love to love you back. However, at its core, manifestation is about being the person who has everything you want. It’s about fulfilling all your desires internally and allowing that to be the source from which you see the world around you. If you want to manifest love, your goal is to become the person who is loved. You do this internally. You never need to take any action. You don’t have to say affirmations, write scripts, do spells, or even go out and take any kind of action toward your goals. All that is necessary is for you to go inward and allow your inner man to be fulfilled with everything you desire.

Now, I’m sure a lot of you are expecting a very detailed step-by-step guide to manifest. However, as I’m sure a lot of you know (if you are already familiar with the law of assumption), manifestation is a very personal journey and everyone has their own beliefs and preferred methods to manifest their desires. The most important aspect of manifestation, which should be the basis from which everyone builds upon their own personal journey and methods is belief.
The only thing you need to do in order to manifest anything is to believe. You need to believe that what you desire is yours and that it’s possible for you to obtain or achieve it. Once you believe, then you are able to get into the state of the wish fulfilled, in which you feel as though your manifestation is already yours. The point is not to feel delusional or to trick yourself, but to use your imagination to experience your manifestation internally. Fulfilling your desire internally is the cause that allows your desire to be made manifest in the physical external reality.
To truly feel fulfilled, you will not be worried about how it will come, or how you will deal with it when it is yours. I know it’s hard not to think about it or ruminate on it, but by focusing on the what-ifs you are contradicting the state of it already being done. If it was already yours, you wouldn’t be wondering what if, because you would already be experiencing it. You would already know what would happen because you’ve already experienced it. Relax into the wish fulfilled and keep the faith that everything will happen in the best way possible for you. If you feel this way even for a moment and then distract yourself from the topic, then you will have made a significant difference in your state and manifested wonderful things.

So, you were able to achieve your desired state, but now you’ve returned your attention to the physical world and found countless contradictions to your manifestation. This is a common issue when you first start to consciously be aware of the states you occupy. It’s not only about reaching the state but also about persisting in the desired state against all odds.
I have gotten so many questions where people mention reaching their desired state, but then something undesirable happens in their 3D and everything begins to go wrong. This is because they allowed the 3D undesirable circumstance to determine their state. They allowed the negative feelings around the circumstance to decide the state they occupied and it persisted throughout the day, which is the reason why more and more negative things continued to show up in their 3D. This is normal. Every single person allows the 3D to influence their state because the 3D seems more real than the 4D. However, consciousness is the only reality, the 4D shapes the 3D, so in reality, imagination is more real than the 3D. You are simply only ever reacting to a reflection. The most important thing to do in this kind of situation is to return to the state of the wish fulfilled. Deny anything you see in the 3D that does not completely align with your desired state. By denying it and focusing only on your wish fulfilled, you will be able to persist in your desired state and avoid the cycle of the 3D controlling your state.
I hope you realize by now that the reason your undesirable circumstances persist is that you allow your 3D to continually determine your state. It’s a constant cycle of allowing what you see to be the ultimate truth, rather than allowing your imagination to take the reigns and bring about desired change in your life. This is why it’s so important to be aware of your state and focus on not letting the 3D world determine your state. You should only ever allow imagination and the 4D to affect your state. If you find yourself slipping, return to the desired state and then persist. Deny the undesirable and persist in the desirable.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞
As long as you keep persisting, you are going to succeed. It doesn’t matter how long it takes, as long as you continue to persist, it will come. In my opinion, I’d rather get it later than never. Think about that. You have to be able to stare someone in the face calling you crazy and know internally that they are wrong. You need to be the master of your reality. As long as you believe in your desires, then everything will fall into place. No one else can tell you anything about your own reality. It’s your choice to believe what others say about you. And remember, if you change your conception of self, others will always reflect that back to you.

The law of assumption is a very personal journey. A lot of the time it’s about trial and error. I want you to know that there is no failure in manifestation. There are only learning opportunities. You never miss a chance to manifest something. You can always revise and you can always return to a manifestation. When you realize that your internal reality and your imagination are the sources of everything you experience in your physical reality, things seem less dire. You will realize that you have all the time in the world, and also all the power over your life and your earthly experience.

Anything you desire can be manifested, even things that seem impossible can be manifested. In fact, everything you desire should be fulfilled within imagination at the point of desire, so that you can break out of the endless cycle of desire with no satisfaction. The rule of thumb is: if you can imagine it, it can be made manifest in the physical world.

If you already had your desire, would you constantly be in a state of desire or lack? No, you would be enjoying already having your manifestation. You wouldn’t be worried about anything because it’s already yours. However, it’s normal and natural to feel this way. We are not asking you to never feel desire, that’s never the point. The point is to always make it a habit to fulfill your desires as they come up. As long as you keep returning to the state of already having your desire, then you’re doing well. Don’t get worried or stressed over not being in the state 24/7. It’s not important. We are not perfect beings and our minds wander and we lose track sometimes. What’s important is that we keep going back to the wish fulfilled and persisting.

Doubt is normal. Everyone has to deal with doubts, especially when first starting out on their manifestation journeys. Just remember that it's always okay to have doubts. Everyone doubts at some point. I focus on building belief and finding constructive ways to deal with my doubt when I encounter this roadblock. This could be saying an affirmation, such as "it's already mine, so I don't need to doubt" or "I experienced it, therefore it's already mine." You could also distract yourself from the topic and return to it when you feel better or use emotional regulation techniques to relax your mind and return to the state of the wish fulfilled (such as any form of meditation). Doubting is a part of being human!

You need to give yourself space and time. Manifestation should never be stressful, it should be freeing. If you feel as though it’s taking too much of a toll on your life, you should take a break and return to the topic once you feel better. When you return, I strongly encourage you to figure out exactly why you spiraled. Was it difficult for you to believe? Were you focused too much on 3D manifestation? Were you placing too much weight on your physical circumstances? It’s important to do this so you know what it is you need to do differently this time around.

No! It’s entirely a misconception that you must always be happy to manifest. Being in the state of the wish fulfilled is achieving the feeling of being the person that has what you desire. That doesn’t mean you need to feel an emotion. Think about how it feels that you have your phone, the shirt on your back, or the pencil in your backpack. You just know it’s yours. That’s not an emotion, right? It’s a feeling. So, you can be sad, angry, depressed, anxious, etc. and still be in the wish fulfilled.
𝐃𝐨 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐭?
No, intrusive thoughts never manifest. Think about this, assumptions are things you believe. There is an intention behind your beliefs, but intrusive thoughts are not based on your true beliefs, intentions, or desires. They’re just thoughts. Your thoughts are not what manifests, contrary to popular belief. Your state creates your thoughts which is why people consider their thoughts to be the source of their success, but it’s not. So don’t worry about your intrusive thoughts manifesting, because they won’t.
Most people have this obstacle to overcome. It seems so simple to manifest a few dollars, a free coffee, or even a new phone. But when it comes to manifesting things like romantic partners (especially a celebrity SP), wealth, fame, physical changes, or even moving out of difficult circumstances, it seems impossible. Not to mention the fact that your successes seem so small in comparison to your deeper desires. What you should do in this case is work on your self-concept along with your beliefs about manifestation in general. Basically, remove your desires from the pedestal. When we say to remove your desires from the pedestal, we mean to stop giving them so much weight. Stop making your desires so difficult for you to achieve. Stop thinking of your SP as difficult to get. Stop thinking of money as anything other than a number on a website, or paper. Focus on de-mystifying your desires, so you can make them smaller than you. Remember that you are god and god can have anything. You are god living a human experience. Your purpose is to create a life that is fulfilling to you. Your desires are your roadmap for what you must create with your infinite imagination. Make yourself bigger than your desires, so that you always feel good enough for them, no matter how “big” they are. That is the way to circumvent this issue.
When stuck in the victim mentality or insecurity loop, it really makes you realize how important working on your self-concept and self-love is. Build up the belief that you are the god of your reality. Since that is true, no one is above you, and nothing is too good for you. You are the only one that can manifest in your reality. Nothing can happen in your reality without you allowing it to happen. Your beliefs about yourself and your reality are what determine your reality and your experience. Nothing anyone else can tell you will have any weight unless you allow them to. You are good enough to be a millionaire, you are good enough to be a K-pop idol, you are good enough to date your celebrity crush, and you are good enough to be a famous actress or singer. You are good enough. Because you are the only power in your reality. You make the decisions.
First, your thoughts don’t manifest. People often like to say that your thoughts determine your experience, but that’s not technically the truth. Your state and your assumptions determine your physical world. Plus, it’s the state that you most often dwell in that is the most influential on your physical experience. Wouldn’t you rather not be afraid of your thoughts? Wouldn’t you rather not be constantly worried that a distressing, negative, or intrusive thought will manifest? Well, you’re in luck because those small fleeting thoughts are not the source, it’s the state that is behind those thoughts.
Then, methods don’t matter. You are the only source and reason for your manifestations, it doesn’t matter what method you use, or if you even use a method at all. Your state, your assumptions, your consciousness, and your infinite imagination are the true sources of your manifestations. Also, so many people think that using states is a method. It’s not. Maybe they believe this because consciously changing your state requires a certain amount of self-awareness and effort, but it’s not a method. You are constant in a state. You cannot be devoid of a state unless you are dead.
You can “just believe.” Let me explain. I’ve seen so many people overcomplicate the law to the point that I am not even sure some people truly understand the law enough to be teaching it to beginners. Why are we focusing so much on methods that take hours out of our days? Why are we focused on methods at all? Everyone forgets that the only thing you need to manifest anything is the belief that it’s yours. Nothing else is necessary, because once you believe that it’s yours, you are in the state of the wish fulfilled. Simply persist in that belief, no matter what you see in the 3D, and you will receive it. So many people complain that they can’t “just believe” that their desires are theirs. Well, how are you perfectly able to “just believe” in negative outcomes, but never in the positive ones? There is little evidence for the truth of your negative assumptions, and the same for the positive ones, so why not choose to believe in something that will benefit you instead?
And finally, you are the only person that can give yourself the life of your dreams. You are the master of your thoughts, your assumptions, and your imagination. We can give you all the information in the world on how to manifest your dreams, but if you do not apply them, then nothing will ever happen. Stop putting it off for later, stop procrastinating, and stop standing in your own way. If you let go and allow yourself to believe (assume and persist), then you will change your life to an unimaginable degree and you’ll wonder why you ever waited so long to make this happen.

I have mentioned this before, but these are the most common shortfalls I have observed throughout my many years of manifesting.
Lack of conviction—I actually had a dream about this issue a while ago and it really opened my eyes to the importance of conviction when it comes to manifesting. First, the definition of conviction is a firmly held belief or opinion. I found that when I am manifesting, and I’m less decisive or clear about a desire I want to manifest, then it either will only partially manifest, or it won’t manifest at all. In my dream, I recognized that I kept changing my mind, doubting, and not firmly choosing this desire to manifest, so I only got a half-manifestation. I can't remember the dream that clearly now because it’s been a long time, but I remember waking up knowing deeply that if I had true conviction for my desire, it would have manifested clearly. The next night, I had another dream where I had a real conviction for my desire and it came in its full capacity, showing me that I only needed conviction in order to manifest the “big” desires that had been stumping me for a long time.
Lack of a clear decision—This goes along with the previous explanation, but when I lack a clear decision for what I want, I often find that the manifestation is shaky and it’s harder for me to retain conviction for a desire I’m not entirely sure about.
Avoidance (constantly saying "I'll do it later")—This is now referred to as deferred occupancy, but constantly procrastinating and leaving applying or occupying the state of the wish fulfilled for later will always keep your desires from you. Neville Goddard has said, “nearness implies separation.” If you are not occupying your desired state now, you are constantly separated from your manifestations.
Doing a method "to make something happen," rather than entering the state of already having it—Once again, this applies to the “nearness implies separation” quote. If you are doing something so that something will happen in the future, then you are once again separated from your desires. Your only goal is to make your desires real in the here and now. Not in the future, not later, now.
Lack of faith that anything is possible with the law of assumption—Some people have limiting beliefs that only certain things are possible to manifest, and others aren’t. Such as thinking that you can manifest a romantic relationship with someone you know, but draw the line at manifesting a romantic relationship with a celebrity. It’s all possible. Nothing is harder to manifest that anything. It’s all the same. Change these beliefs so that you can create a life with all your desires, not just your “realistic” ones.
Neglecting imagination (no mental diet/not working on self-concept)—While self-concept is not necessary to manifest anything, it’s definitely a huge help. It’s so important to be aware of your self-concept and I would always recommend working on it because it makes manifesting so much easier. You will believe in yourself and your abilities much more, it will be easier to persist, and you will never ever limit yourself.
Not letting go of the idea that I need to work or struggle in order to get what I want—Finally, some people really love to cling to the belief that you have to take some sort of action in order to manifest their desires. This is not true. You never have to do anything other than believe that your desire is yours. Everything else will fall into place for you. So, stop creating more limitations and obstacles by believing that you have to take action in order to manifest what you want. Just assume the state of your wish fulfilled and persist.
𝐅𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐬
Finally, I always love to recommend these two resources for the law of assumption, because they are the reason I am where I am today. These are the two resources I will defend day in day out.
