No Need To Force Feeling/thinking

“affirm and persist” how should we approach it?

you don’t even have to be in the law of assumption community to know the term “affirm and persist” it’s plastered everywhere. we see it all the time, we see blogs repeat that term in different wordings but ultimately the same meaning.

i think there can be good that comes out of term- it’s simple & straightforward.

but i personally believe there’s can be more cons than pros with affirm and persist not so much the term itself but how we approach it. its a term that can’t relate to everybody. we have to be mindful that we are different bodies, different minds, different stories. we can’t all relate and understand the term of affirming and persisting.

im saying this out of personal experience and what anons that speak to me.

“i’ve been affirming & persisting and nothing is happening”

- i relate to this very very much. it’s mostly because we affirm out of LACK. when you affirm are you doing it because you’re acknowledging what you want is yours? or are you affirming because you believe there is something to achieve? are you affirming because you “have to” or are you affirming because you’re being gentle with yourself and affirming as you please. state of lack or state of fulfilment?

when you persist- are you still putting focus on the 3D? are you still conscious of time? do you measure your success by time or by how you feel within yourself?

when you persist do you feel tiresome, drained?i know when i persisted with my affirmations in the state of lack i would get headaches, i would feel like total crap. would a person who had their desires feel like this? the answer is no

you know you’re persisting amazingly when you feel calm about your desires, when you don’t even care about time. when you feel nice within. its a pleasant feeling.

“I’m in a terrible circumstance and i don’t know what to do, i feel hopeless”

i’m not gonna tell you to ignore your circumstances because let me tell you this- some circumstances are so terrible and completely draining that you can’t even ignore it. especially when you have to face your circumstance every single day.

when i was in unpleasant circumstances i took it as something that will soon go away, i didn’t question how it will go away. i didn’t worry if it will or if it wont. i decided that it will soon go away, so whenever i found myself in a circumstance i particularly didn’t like- i felt it as neutral.

another thing that helped me was meditating and journaling. i meditated for 5-10mins whenever i had free time, sometimes it was guided meditations sometimes it was listening to my favourite songs that me feel at peace. during this time i just let myself BE

i wasn’t worrying about doing the meditations right, i wasn’t worried about affirmations i was just BEING.

journalling helps me get out all my thoughts that make me feel unsafe, uncomfortable etc because sometimes my mind becomes a cluster of mixed emotions & thoughts that make my mind hurt so i would journal and i wouldn’t hold anything back, i wouldn’t perfect my journaling i would literally flood my pages with whatever i was feeling.

it did make me feel more relaxed, more like my mind was empty. i wouldn’t have any thoughts after it was like my mind has been squeaked clean.

i won’t lie to you guys and say it was the most easiest thing ever, it was not. well it definitely wasn’t at the start; it is a jump from my old mindset.

but when i consisted and made it a habit i noticed changes- subtle changes. i used to easily react and throw tantrums and then judge myself 10mins after for reacting, now i do not judge myself.

in general— we must be mindful of those who are struggling, lets not demonise them and tell them to get up and affirm & persist. allow yourself to just be sometimes, without judgment lingering in

when you become “delusional”, you will realize the only real delusion was thinking things weren’t possible.

THE TENETS OF LOA.

the rules by which the law operates by is:

everything stems from self

everything comes from within

everything starts from self / i am. this is one of, if not the most important, tenet of the law of assumption. therefore in order to manifest successfully, you simply need to change your conception of self.

“change your conception of yourself and you will automatically change the world in which you live.” – Neville Goddard

the analogy of the dreamer and the dream is the best, least offensive one i have found in describing how manifestation works.

the inner man has everything immediately. in order to manifest proficiently, identify yourself with the inner man feelingly. the following quote explains the issue with "thinking of the end instead of from the end" aka "identifying with the outer man instead of the inner man"

Your issue is NOT in imagining the end, your issue lies in who you are identifying yourself with. If you imagine yourself in the end, which is easy, but then you identify yourself with the outer-man, you will breed nothing but frustrations. However, if you first identify yourself with the One Within, and then imagine your end, you will not question if you "are going to get it," you HAVE IT! — Edward Art Supply Hands

states produce feelings which produces thoughts.

i am is the selector of states, so if you identify yourself / the inner man with a certain state, then it produces the feelings, which therefore produces the thoughts. this way it is much easier to maintain the thoughts and feelings, manifesting your desires into the 3D.

the biggest "secret" to manifesting is probably that you aren't really trying to manifest the certain object/experience/person etc. what you are really trying to manifest is the feeling you would have if you owned the object/ experienced the experience/had a happy relationship with the person. i use the term secret lightly as neville already told us this when he told us to “assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled.”

instead of feeling like you have money (for example), feel the feeling that owning the money would bring you. this could be safety, happiness, freedom. enter the state of being the inner man, who already has the money and feels these things. this will produce the feeling, which will produce the thoughts, which will produce the manifestation in the 3D.

i hope you do not all find this limiting but instead liberating, as it frees us from the cycles of using method, techniques, and finding "new/innovate ways to manifest" which are always rehashing what neville has said previously.

absolute understanding of the law of assumption aids in helping people from being drowned in misinformation, misinterpretations, and overconsumption. therefore, i fully recommended neville goddard lectures, and edward art supply hands on reddit.

ps. you need to read the links, otherwise you will not fully understand my post and reading it will be meaningless.

also feeling ≠ emotion. read the links and you will hopefully understand the difference between the two.

it may seem controversial to say this, because isn’t the point of manifesting to change the 3D?

well, no. this viewpoint is easily adapted in this community, because that’s what makes manifesting so attractive. you can finally take control of everything in the 3D. but this is a mindset that hinders your manifestation process and is actually one of the main causes of “failure”.

why should you remove this idea?

by approaching manifesting as “trying to make something happen” or “trying to manipulate the world, so you can have more control” you are actually telling yourself that you aren’t in control. you’re pressuring yourself to control everything, you’re trying too hard to be in control. you shouldn’t be “trying to be in control”, you already are in control and you should relax. leave the outer-world alone entirely.

the only way you can make anything change is within. when you desire something, imagine your desire, feel that it’s yours and let it be. there’s no need to do anything else. you’ve accomplished it within you and therefore it is done. there’s no need to check the 3D to see if “it’s come yet”. it’s yours already, accept it within. the outer-world will inevitably reflect your inner-state, there’s no need to worry about it.

the mindset to take on instead:

you should see your problems and desires much smaller than you. because they are. they’re nothing compared to you. remove your desires and problems from the pedestal, nothing is greater than you. realise that whenever you feel something you don’t want to feel, that you are the one making yourself react that way. you don’t have to react that way, raise yourself above any fears.

your desires are simple goals easily achievable within you. imagine them, feel them and move on.

The true metaphysical student shines when he no longer depends on world without for his moods. He no longer looks control the outside and by this he controls it. - Edward Art

I JUST FOUND THIS IN MY DRAFTS?? I DONT REMEMBER THIS BUT ITS SO TRUE!!! It’s helpful :)

Hi how are you 🫶 can you make affirmations for that person who everyone ends up being in love with , they don’t even try to do anything intentionally, but people still end up being head over heels for them , but the love they attract is pure and positive ofc. These people just have a weird effect, even tho they are flawed and those flaws show all the time , everyone loves them so so much.

Thank u🫶

hi!! i have affirmations posted that sound similar to what you’re looking for here and here🩷

reminder that the 3D is constantly changing. constantly. all as a reflection of your thinking, so why not start thinking of having everything you could ever want?

there is no post, lecture, video, or book that will give you a better understanding of the law than actually applying it to your life and experiencing it for yourself will!!

just for your information, i always get what i want
