It has taken far too long for this concept to click in my head, but you aren’t doing anything wrong if you’re persisting yet still not seeing the full result in the 3D realm. It’s 100% guaranteed that your manifestation will present itself in the 3D. All you have to do is just keep going with affirming that what you want is what’s true.
This is what tends to trip people up (myself included). When you’re not seeing it in the 3D realm, it can definitely be discouraging and might make you question yourself. So, this is me encouraging you to keep going.
Don’t let people bring you down. If they say things like, “Oh give up on that person,” dodge that, especially with your thoughts. Don’t let the circumstances bring you down, either. Keep fighting it with what’s ideal in your mind. Remind yourself that you’ve already shifted into your desired reality, that you already have everything you want.
Use signs as fuel to keep going. Keep affirming and visualizing what makes you feel happier.
Knowing that everything in my life reflects me has been such a game changer for me. I tell myself things like, “it’s my world - everyone else is just living in it.” If you’ve struggled with manifesting what you want (like I have), I highly recommend keeping this in mind. Know that everything is 100% possible because it’s under your control.
My mindset has been so much better. I successfully didn’t force anything to happen today and I already noticed changes. Someone at my job told me how fabulous I looked and like I lost a lot of weight (something I’ve been manifesting for myself). I haven’t tried anything. All I’ve been doing is affirming and, fun fact, that’s all you need to do.
Never ever forget this. Manifestations and things happening in your life all come from you. You are the center and main character of your own life, your own world.
This is why having a good self concept is encouraged (even though it’s not needed). Your self concept doesn’t have to be perfect or anywhere close to it for that matter. But make your affirmations positive and hype yourself up with them. You are your own biggest hype man. If you tell yourself things like, “everyone treats me well,” they will. They have no choice but to and it’ll feel so nice.
You don’t have to adore and be obsessed with yourself. You don’t have to strongly believe everything you tell yourself. Does it help? Yes. But, affirming - especially repeatedly - is stating the truth and that’ll make it so. Persistence is key. Not perfect self concept, not doing technique after technique - persisting in telling yourself what you see as or feel is true.
I will say this over and over again until it’s drilled into all of our minds lol. Manifesting is simple, not complicated. Some people tend to overcomplicate it since we’re all used to running on time, thinking of logical answers, and thinking we have to physically do things to make what we want come true. But, anything can happen just by simply believing it can. Nothing else needs to be done.
When it comes to using affirmations, you don’t need to repeat them over and over again. You can simply say once “I have [this]” and still manifest successfully as long as you know it’s yours.
But, if it doesn’t feel as easy for you to jump into the wish fulfilled state, then repeating affirmations can be a simple way to help you get there. You can also repetitively visualize a scene in your mind or listen to subliminals as a way of getting into the state. They’re all commonly used techniques.
Some may not understand how repetition helps. Well, it saturates your mind. To define saturation, it’s filling (something or someone) with something until no more can be held or absorbed. Meaning you’re filling your mind with the thought, the idea that you have your desire.
Repeating this idea over and over again saturates your mind so that it’s pushed to believe that what you’re telling yourself or envisioning is true. So, although repetition isn’t a necessary thing when you’re shifting your state of mind, it can be very helpful because you’re basically tricking yourself to believe that something is true…and then it turns out to be true in your physical reality.
I’ll give a real life example. My sister met a friend of hers in an unconventional way. How it happened is a story that’s hard to explain to my parents. So, she tells them a simple story she made up. Although I know the real story, she repeated the made-up story so many times that I started questioning if that was the TRUE story. The fact that I’ve heard the fake version over and over again tricked me to believe that it was the actual true story. It was to a point where I had to question her. That repetition was enough to convince me that it might be what’s true despite me knowing what actually happened. This is the same as seeing something in your 3D reality but repeating a different version of it to yourself. Then, it’s repeated enough times to make you believe it’s true, despite seeing a different thing in the 3D realm.
You’re most likely not second guessing yourself after reading that title. You’re probably thinking something like, “yes, of course I do!”
Considering you really care about this person, you should really think about what you would do to get them to be yours. I’m sure there’s a lot you would do to get to that point where they’re yours. But fear can take over, circumstances can feel like they’re blocking your relationship from becoming a thing, etc.
So, I came up with a simple thought that might help. Tell yourself: “It is 100% guaranteed that I’ll get my specific person in my reality as long as I believe that they are already mine.” Because guess what? It is 100% guaranteed that you will. Challenge yourself that if you push away the circumstances in your mind and know that they are already yours, you will physically have them.
Pick on yourself a bit to fire yourself up. Say, “I’m not proving that I love/care about this person by not acting like they’re mine.” Use your strong, genuine feelings for them as fuel to push yourself into the end state.
TLDR: your feelings for your SP can be your drive to get you to your desired state. You know how you feel about them and know why you want them to be yours. You are their prized possession. They already want you as bad as you want them. You just have to care enough to believe it.
Simple affirmations & steps you can (but don’t have to) take
So, when it came to things on the “smaller scale,” I did simple affirmations without overthinking, which is how I ended up manifesting things like my platonic SP talking to me again, a friend giving me a hug before I left for my holiday break, etc. But, when it comes to things that are per se more life-changing for me, I put more pressure on myself and overthink how it’ll happen because I want it to be perfect. I’ll say more detailed affirmations or multiple ones that end up jumping around all over the place.
But here’s the thing. Don’t scale down what you want, don’t act like you’re dreaming too big. Instead, scale down your affirmations to something simple and maybe stick to only one affirmation per manifestation. And, if you need more convincing to get into the end state, just keep repeating that same exact affirmation for that manifestation.
To give an example, if you’re manifesting an SP and you’re currently in the state of being single, say something like, “[My SP] and I are in a serious relationship.” It’s simple and it doesn’t focus on the how - because the how doesn’t matter - it focuses specifically on the end state.
To be clear, you can manifest something simpler. A simple affirmation for that is “[My SP] is calling me.” It can help take some pressure off if you’re feeling worried about leaping directly into the end state of a “big” manifestation. But, it’s encouraged to manifest the end state of the bigger want, because then you’re not taking multiple steps as if it’s a process and you don’t want to focus on how it happens. Although, if you want it to be a process involving multiple manifestations, one after another, then of course that’s something you can do (ie. a “slow burn” relationship - manifesting a friendship first and then a relationship second).
But, it definitely is more common for people to just think of the end state. I know I’ve ended up putting more pressure on myself because I wanted my manifestation to happen in a specific way. However, as I said before, this isn’t the case for everyone. I’m also now using a simpler affirmation for something I believe is mine and it feels easier to repeat because of its simplicity.
So, I made a post a while ago about affirming through song lyrics. I referenced a song I like that helps me affirm. HOWEVER, something I hadn’t thought to do was make up my own song or my own cover of a song with my affirmation in it.
If you’re someone who connects a lot with music, is musically talented, and/or tends to get music stuck in your head a lot, this technique could help. Take words in your affirmation and turn it into a song. Come up with a beat to go along with this affirmation (or use a beat/melody from a song you like). Sing it to yourself - either out loud or in your mind - over and over again. Memorize that song; those lyrics and that melody/beat.
When it’s catchy and you learn it, it’ll get stuck in your head. You’ll sing it subconsciously and associate that song with your manifestation. Lemme tell you, this has worked really well for me because it makes it easier to repeat in my mind. I’ve done song affirmations and gotten things the same day just from singing the silly tune I came up with for an hour or so.
It’s a way of repeating affirmations which is highly recommended by and effective for a lot of people in the community. It’s that saturation I always talk about. Try this technique if you struggle with repetitive affirming. Growing up, my dad caught onto me memorizing music, so he’d make up songs about things like my locker combination. That way I’d be able to memorize important things, and guess what? It worked for me and still does. That’s why I recommend this for people whose minds function similarly.
Credit goes to Sashah on TikTok for this video. It’s what inspired me, plus her song is very catchy. The same day, I came up with an affirmation to the tune of a Niall Horan song I had stuck in my head.
Success Story #4: My SP & I got more time together
I have another success story that has to do with my romantic SP, Bee. This experience is so much fun to talk about!
So, as I had mentioned in success story #2 involving Bee, he works in a different department on the other side of the store we work at. Despite our work shifts overlapping a bit, if he's not helping me with tasks in my department, we mostly just see each other in passing, especially since he gets pretty busy at work.
It was a Saturday, which is typically a day we both work. I was walking in and his scooter that's usually sitting in a certain spot wasn't there. I felt a bit sad because I thought maybe he had called out, which, mind you, very rarely happens. But, I told myself maybe he is there. Maybe he rode a bike to work or someone drove him in. I put on my uniform and started my shift.
As I was standing around with nothing to do, staring at the wall, I told myself it was going to be an amazing day; the best day ever. I was nearly drifting off to sleep, so I made a trip to the breakroom for a snack and soda. Much to my surprise, who's sitting right there next to the soda machine? Bee. I was in so much disbelief, but I made sure to say hi.
Time was inching closer and closer to when Bee was scheduled to get off. I hadn't gotten to see or talk to him much at all which made me feel down, to a point where even my good friend, Ann, noticed. I definitely felt myself starting to waver, but I refused to let myself waver. So, I shoved my phone in my pocket to avoid checking the time and kept telling myself over and over "it's going to be the best night ever."
I was standing around for what felt like quite a while. I check my phone again and it's now 15 minutes past when Bee was scheduled to leave. But I kept affirming and decided to start walking around. Suddenly, I spot Bee. He was still working in the aisle he'd been working in earlier. I was so shocked and I told myself, "maybe he's staying here just a bit later to finish up what he's been working on." But, then, another voice in my mind said, "but, maybe he's actually working the night shift with you."
It got to be 30 minutes past his scheduled time and when I look again, he’s still there. My boss even says hi to him instead of saying something like, “what are you still doing here?” or “get out. I’m not paying you for overtime.” I thought I was hallucinating, especially since Bee never works night shifts lol
Bee just kept working and working as my shift went on. He kept passing by me as he worked. Then, when I had to cover a different department while someone was on their break, he stops to smile and talk to me. And, then, about 4-5 more times during our shift, we got wholesome one-on-one time together and got to have a lot of conversations which never happens that frequently. It was so sweet!
So, it did turn out to be the best night. It turned out that he came in late because he overslept, so he worked later to make up those hours. He also didn’t ride his scooter as usual, he road his bike. Both of my assumptions came true.
What made it seem like magic was Bee asking aloud, “I wonder what I’m still doing here…” and “why am I still here?” Then he’d continue talking to me.
TLDR: what may seem impossible is possible. Ask yourself how it can become true because there are always an infinite amount of ways that it can happen.
