The Law of Assumption, as described by Neville Goddard, is the law that states that what you assume must be manifested in reality. Your beliefs create your Self Concept, which determines what is manifested. If you assume that life is hard, you are poor, and that manifestation is not real, then that is what you will experience in your world. Your consciousness is very obedient and will reflect your Self back to you, whether it's positive or negative. There is only what you are being.

Well, how is that possible? How is it that changing your assumptions, imagining something new, and granting it reality changes the world around you? Well, reality is consciousness. Consciousness is your state of being, what is truly you. You are not your body. Think about how you can feel your senses in your mind. You can imagine touching a soft patch of grass, smelling a fresh pot of coffee, tasting a fresh, tangy orange, hearing a new song, and seeing a shooting star. You can access all your senses within. So, if you're not your body, you are something greater. And in this world, your imagination, anything is possible. You can imagine literally anything. You have all the power within your mind. You also cannot imagine something if it didn't exist, because our brains do not create new things; they only access what they already know. So, if you can imagine it, it can be manifested. The only thing that truly matters is what is going on inside you, in your imagination. In truth, the physical world that you experience and your internal imaginal world are one and the same, only seemingly separated by your senses. So, making something real in imagination means that you can make it real in this physical world.

Now that you know that consciousness is what determines your reality, you should know how to change it. You do not need to be stuck where you are, no matter your circumstances. You can always change your reality. This is done by changing your state. It's as simple as changing your belief/assumption about whatever it is you want to manifest. For example, if you want to be luckier, you just assume that you are lucky. That's the simplest form of changing your state. If that is too daunting, you can always use methods to help you change your state, but they're not needed. You can meditate and visualize yourself in a lucky situation, or you can affirm that you are lucky until you fall asleep. You can do anything that helps you change your state.
TL;DR: Your state is your state of being. What are you currently aware of being? What assumptions are you currently living in? It's important to analyze this so that you can change your Self Concept and make your life a lot easier.

Now, once you change your state, you can no longer dwell in your previous state. Think about this: you cannot be both rich and poor, beautiful and ugly, sad and happy. You can only be one, so once you have changed your state, you must fully and completely dwell in that new assumption. Neville calls this forgiveness: forgiving (letting go of) your previous state and fully integrating into the new one.
If you still find yourself thinking from your previous state, then that is your sign that you have not successfully changed your state, and that should be your indicator to get yourself back on the right path, return to your new state, and persist in that.

I don't usually like to separate the imaginal and the physical, because they are the same and only seemingly separate because of the way we live our lives, but for the sake of understanding, it can be useful. It may help you to think of the imaginal world as the source and the physical world as the mirror. Whatever is true in the imaginal world will be reflected in the physical. It must be reflected. It is not a suggestion or something you need to force or work hard for. It will be reflected no matter what.

Once most people learn about the law, they start wondering what is possible to manifest. You are once again lending too much reality to the physical world. Why are you letting others dictate what is possible for you? If you can truly believe that you have what you desire, then it doesn't matter what others think. It will be reflected in your reality. Stop allowing others (and even yourself) to limit what you can manifest, because anything is possible. You can manifest your celebrity SP, you can manifest millions of dollars, and you can get yourself that mansion if that is truly what you want. It's all up to you.
