You've probably heard a number of manifestation coaches and content creators say this, but, it's true - you shouldn't give up on your manifestations. If you want to because you changed your mind and want to manifest something else, go for it. What I'm saying - and what they're saying - is don't give up solely because you don't think you'll get what you're manifesting.
"...But why not?"
Well, you're going to be letting yourself down. Not to be dramatic, but, you're giving up on your dreams. You're not believing in yourself. You're telling yourself you can't manifest. Gonna be forceful when I say this, but, yes you can.
Also, referring to Taylor Tookes’ latest video, you “giving up” on manifesting is not you actually giving up on manifesting. You are manifesting 24/7, babe. So, all you’re doing is changing your manifestation. You’re instead negatively manifesting “I don’t have [this thing].” Considering you manifest all the time, you might as well make it beneficial for yourself.
"I'm not getting what I want. So, manifesting and law of assumption aren't real."
Bullshit. Pure bullshit. Do you think an actual philosopher just made this up and lied to everyone that he researched this? Do you think every person who knows and talks about it is making up stories for attention and money? Do you think "manifestation" is just some random word thrown into the dictionary?
Everyone - and I mean EVERYONE - manifests every single day, both good and bad things, whether they realize it or not. Like I said, you are always manifesting something to happen. You are always having others reflect you. That's a fact.
Just because you aren't seeing what you want in the 3D yet does not mean LOA and manifesting isn't real. I understand that it can be very discouraging when your 3D reality isn't reflecting what you're manifesting and that circumstances or your own limiting beliefs make this feel harder. But, when you start to get a better grip on it and improve your mentality to get to that wish fulfilled state, you will feel so much better about manifesting. It's worth it.
"I've been waiting for so long and doing everything right. Why should I keep going?"
Chances are you might be seeking validation from the 3D reality, letting circumstances get to you, focusing on timing, and/or not acting like the desired version of yourself, without realizing. OR, it could just be the 3D still catching up and you're pressuring yourself that it won't come if it's not there quickly or instantaneously. These won't completely stop your manifestation it its tracks, but it can slow it down if all of this is happening with very, very little persistence.
If you're not consistently telling yourself everyday that you have the thing(s) you want and are instead leaning too far into the negative things happening in your 3D realm, then you're not going to see your manifestation when you want to. But, when you do consistently affirm while ignoring circumstances and time, you will most certainly get what you want.
Also, when you have that mindset of “I have [this thing],” you aren’t “waiting” on anything. The idea of “waiting” on a manifestation isn’t true. When you’re manifesting, you already have what you want and you’re not focused on the time. Someone who already has something is not waiting and is not focusing on the time. If you act as if it’s a waiting game, you are making yourself wait. Understand that your manifestation is waiting on you to leap into that end state where you know you have it. Things are always unfolding and moving behind the scenes to work in your favor to whatever you’re manifesting. You just have to trust and believe that.
So, don’t make yourself wait. Take your focus off of time and what you’re seeing in front of you. Then, the dream you’ve been manifesting physically shows up. It truly is a paradox. When you don’t worry about the time and “getting” it (because you already have it), it shows up in the physical realm quicker than you could ever imagine.
"My manifestation is too big for me to manifest. It can’t happen.”
Yes, it can. You’re only limiting yourself. Anything - and I mean anything - is possible, despite what other people try to tell you. Nothing is “too big” for you to manifest.
Can it feel difficult to manifest? Yes. When you’re changing from, let’s say, a 9-5 office worker to a singer who tours internationally, that feels like a massive shift in your life. You aren’t used to a change like that. HOWEVER, this does not mean you can’t make that shift in realities.
Manifesting “That man in front of me treated me to a coffee” while you’re in line at Starbucks is just as easy to manifest as “My boyfriend proposed to me with the ring I’ve been wanting.” It just may not feel as easy as one another.
But, to simply put it, we tend to put these limits on ourselves when, in truth, the sky’s the limit. You can manifest something HUGE.
“…But I don’t want to take action and constantly affirm.”
Guess what? You don’t have to take action and constantly repeat words in your mind. Action is never required when you’re manifesting. Repeating phrases to yourself is helpful, but when it comes down to it, affirming is just stating that something is true. You can say it once and that’s enough as long as you believe you already have what you want. The only reason repeated affirming is encouraged is because stating what you’re affirming over and over again in your mind is what can make you believe it’s true.

BE YOUR OWN PROOF.
i've said this before and ill say it again, some of you need to stop asking questions. stop looking for sucess stories and "proof" loa is real. because you know it's not going to convince you anymore than it already has. did it change anything the first time? the sixteenth time? the hundredth time? my guess is no, considering you're still looking and begging for more of the exact same information.
be your own proof. nothing will make you believe in loa more than manifesting for yourself.
i'm not saying asking questions is inherently bad, especially if you're new to loa. but some of you rather ask questions instead of just doing — when you're not new to loa, and you know exactly what to do.
you know the answer to your own question, but want constant reassurance. why? what's going to change if you just continue the same cycle of asking yet not doing or following. we cannot keep this victim mindset, and you cannot expect creators to feed into it. you know what to do, so do it. you don't need to wait for a sign, you don't need to wait for a certain date or a certain time. just know it's yours, and tell yourself accordingly. what is the use of constantly consuming new information if you're continuing with your old mindset and not even trying to believe in yourself and your power.
hi everyone! today I wanna talk about how we create false gods in our lives, how that harms us, and the importance of directing our focus! this is a topic that has been on my mind recently as I think it is foundational to everyone who wants to work on their mindset, mental diet, and manifest better life outcomes.
table of contents
1. ways we create false gods in our lives
2. the harm of false idolisation and victimisation
3. the power of focus and attention
p.s: I do believe in god but I believe this post is still helpful from an loa/spiritual persective. so, with that being said, let's discuss!
✿ part 1: ways we create false gods in our lives
I'd say there two main ways we do that: making ourselves smaller and making others bigger.
when we make ourselves small, we victimise ourselves becoming paranoid about the world and thinking that others have this special advantage over you. I see this a lot in the loa community where some believe that others have some kinda special knowledge and power that they don't posses, when in reality it is just them being more disciplined, more consistent, and more trusting of loa.
it could also be about feeling insignificant in the face of your circumstances. like thinking that the 3d (physical reality) is what is ruling your life and not ur mind. also believing in conspiracies and secret society theories or ideas that are designed to instill fear within you, making u think that someone is out there to get you.
as for making others bigger in your mind, this happens a lot in celebrity and fan culture when you start seeing them as more than human. also when you idolise other people's attention (for example: analysing others behavours around you and ruminating over negative meanings of it). and also you pay wayyyy too much attention to other people’s lives like your peers and worrying too much about competition, not realising that there's no competition when you are your own life's creator.
essentially, when you start worrying/thinking too much about something or someone outside yourself, you have formed a false god in your mind.
✿ part 2: the harm of false idolisation and victimisation
so what's the harm in that? well first, it is such a waste of time and energy on something that won't serve you. also it will only create unnecessary worry and anxiety within your mind. you start to see yourself as powerless and your life as out of ur control. you might also engage in behaviours that cause you to lose yourself in the process, such as people pleasing.
your life will become vapid and shallow since your focus is shit that really doesn't matter. you will also start to associate this great amount of omnipotence and power with something other than god (if u believe in one), bankrupting you spiritually. like you are some insignificant string being pulled along by someone more powerful than you or god, or by circumstances that you believe you cannot change.
small tip: whenever you start to worry too much remind yourself that you are starting to create a false god in your mind. this works wonders for me to quickly disengage from unhelpful thoughts and remind myself of my power.
✿ part 3: the power of focus and attention
obviously, if you practice lao, you know that what you focus on is what you create. if you dwell in other people's lives or opinions, you're then not dwelling enough in the life you wanna create. focus is like a currency to what you wanna see play out in your life: what you pay attention to is what you prioritise and is what you will get more of.
in my case, when I started focusing on the life I wanna live, that's when opportunities, successes, etc. started flooding my life.
and that also applies to what you consume cos your mental diet is hugely shaped by your media diet. basically, what you consume (see, hear) and create (say, think) creates patterns of belief in your mind, materialising in reality.
ofc, you can always engage something outside of you that entertains you but don’t lose sight of your own live’s vision. really consider whether what your're watching is adding to your life somehow. make sure you’re using it, not it using you.
a big example of that is social media: you can either curate the perfect fyp to see posts that make you happy, remind you that your dream life is possible, serve as loa tips/reminders or you could consume content that is designed to suck you in and make you angry, anxious, or hopeless.
you decide.
another related term to focus that I wanna talk about is presence and how it is essentially the key to living a happy life.
when you focus on what truly matters, you find excitement and passion again, creating a life you're proud of. being present and focusing on yourself also allows you to practice intentional and mindful living. so you take your time to do the things you care about, you connect back to your spirituality, you realise that you’re more than a physical vessel, and you find yourself again beneath all of society's chatter.
this ultimately builds confidence and trust within you: you become an inspired creator instead of a powerless victim around the people who you look up to and also with 3d circumstances, which you now understand are just past relfections of old beliefs and are easily changeable.
and I think holding such mindset is beautiful :)
anddd, that's all! hope this was a helpful mindset shifting technique for y'all.
talk to you again soon <3

You are standing in front of a mirror.
Inspect what you are currently wearing. Are you dressed in a black T-shirt? Are you wearing mix-matched socks? Is the fabric of your hoodie itchy? Are your jeans flared or oversized? Your style of clothing choice might not be your favourite right now, maybe you don't like it at all. But that's okay, that's not relevant. You have a superior wardrobe, stocked with other clothes, shoes, and accessories, right?
So, you step back from the mirror and return to your divine wardrobe. It carries all the attributes of originality and creativity - Your wardrobe is your oyster. You are your own fashion consultant, picking and choosing your outfit of the day and building your own luxury brand. A good fashion consultant may occasionally look for inspiration, but never copies!!
Now you stand there, thinking, picturing - crafting your ideal outfit at your own pace. It's like time suddenly froze, and you're left with your own judgement. At last, you've customised your outfit! It's ready to be put on. So, you change out of your old outfit and hang it back up in the wardrobe, and on goes the new outfit! Take a moment to feel the fabric and silk. How your garments fit perfectly. How you feel in this outfit. Confident and fierce - I'd hope, duh. Well, what do you think about your new style? Make adjustments, if you'd like.
You approach your mirror again, only to find yourself in your ideal outfit mirrored back. Notice how you didn't scream at the mirror to change? Notice how you didn't just throw your garments at the mirror and demand it to change? Notice how your old clothes weren't superglued onto your body? Notice how you were the only one in your little wardrobe space and no one else was? Treat manifestation the same.
Your outer world is nothing but a mirror of your inner 'outfit', your current state. So change that state like an outfit, and watch your world form in harmony with your desires. That's literally as simple as it can get.
the 3D is our outside reality. it shows us what we assume the world looks like, how we assume the world works, what we assume happens in our world. basically, it’s the world we wake up in everyday. the 4D, however, represents our inner world, it’s ours and only ours, and it can change with just a thought. the 4D is reflected in the 3D: so, the 3D can also be changed. we just have to change our assumptions in the 4D first!
however: what happens if, after changing our assumption, the 3D shows us something we don’t like? something that could be the complete opposite of what we manifested, or something that simply doesn’t align with our manifestation? it’s easy: we bring out our best “i don’t give a flying fuck” attitude, and keep it close until the 3D shows us what we want. the 3D is irrational and illogical: not everything we see in it makes sense. the 3d is a unreliable narrator; so, only believe what you know is true. and you know your manifestations are true, so only believe when the 3D shows you your manifestations. if you see in your 3D something that doesn’t resonate with your manifestation, just re-affirm that you have what you manifested, without giving it a second thought. you can’t change your thoughts depending on what happens in your 3D; it doesn’t work like that. it’s the 3D that has to change depending on what our thoughts are! the 3D is irrelevant, so never believe in what you don’t like. state that you don’t give a fuck, re-affirm that you have what you want, & focus on the 4D. the 4D is the only reality you should fully believe: you’re in complete control of it, so you can shape it depending on how you like it! assume what you want. keep that assumption. don’t let the 3D tell you otherwise. get your manifestation. <3
Chill tf out. You'll shift. You'll manifest your desires. You'll get everything you want. Just chill. No need to stress about things that are inevitable.
Now read it again.
Could you explain it to me in more detail, how do I assume???, please💘
okay. okay. let’s get into it. how to assume.
assuming is not a wishlist. not a request. not a delicate, trembling hope held between two prayer hands. assuming is occupancy. it is signing your name on the deed before the house is even built. it is living inside the fact before the fact exists.
think of reality like a soft, impressionable thing. like warm wax. like fresh concrete. it takes shape around what you believe to be true. most people walk around like reality is a cold, hard wall, something to be negotiated with, something that needs convincing. no. you do not negotiate. you do not wait in line, ticket in hand, hoping to be called. you sit at the table like the invitation was always yours.
let’s say you’re assuming something big. something wild. you don’t just say it once and then sit there waiting for it to tap you on the shoulder like a well-trained butler. you live in it. you wear it like a second skin. you let it become as natural to you as your own name. because reality..... reality is obedient. reality follows you. and it will follow the story you tell it.
and yes, yes, the brain will panic. the brain is a victorian child with a fever, clutching the bedposts, whispering “but what if we’re wrong?” kiss it on the forehead. tell it to rest. you are the captain now.
because assuming is not about forcing reality. it’s about knowing reality is already yours. it’s walking into the world like a god in a borrowed coat, and the coat always fits.
You DON’T actually need to specify.
Short post.
A recommendation for law of assumption is to “specify” or “decide what to manifest,” but some people will not know what to manifest still, and that’s okay. Unpopular opinion, but you could literally not decide on anything and still manifest a favorable reality. This is true because let’s say someone manifested something that they did not specify. It’s simply because of an underlying generalized assumption.
It’s more than enough to just assume favorability because you KNOW subconsciously what’s favorable to you. You don’t need to stress yourself with all the small details if you’re not interested. You don’t have to write it all down, you don’t have to visualize it, you don’t have to affirm it if you don’t want to do any of that. You KNOW what’s ideal, just trust yourself!
Manifesting truly IS supposed to be fun and easy! Not hard work or a struggle. You don’t have to know what to manifest BECAUSE YOU’RE ALEADY MANIFESTING 24/7!
And you don’t have to keep assuming every time a new idea of what to manifest comes up. Like I said, you’re ALREADY manifesting 24/7. It doesn’t toggle on and off. You assume once and it’s DONE for you just like that.
‘Kay bye my dears!! 💜
Every spiritual belief — from established ones like Christianity, to modern ones like the Law of Attraction — encourages you to be positive. “Look at the bright side of things!” “Be grateful for what you have!” “Like attracts like, so never be negative!”
But you’re human. You can’t always be happy.
Of course you’re allowed to feel and say negative things, both to yourself and to people you trust.
The trick is to make sure you acknowledge that your negative situation is temporary.
When I’m going through a hard time, and someone asks me if I’m fine, I say, “I will be.”
I don’t lie and say I’m okay. That’s how wounds stay wounds — when you don’t admit they’re there.
But I also don’t declare defeat. Because for as long as I’ve been alive, I’ve won every single challenge life sent me. Haven’t you? Trust your track record.
To become a powerful witch, an effective manifester, or simply, a happy person… that’s the key.
Don’t say, “I’m so tired!” Say, “I’m so tired, so I will rest to feel better.”
Don’t say, “I’m fucking broke!” Say, “I need money, and I know it’s on its way to me.”
Don’t say, “My life sucks!”. Say, “Life hasn’t been easy, but things are about to change.”
Don’t pretend your pain isn’t there. Acknowledge it. Then acknowledge that it will pass, and it will.
LETTING GO
i've talked about this a little bit in one of my other posts, but I realized this was a very important topic — especially for people like me out here, who might've had a hard time with this concept, and so I wanted to expand on it and give my own two cents.
the concept of "letting go" has been taught to most — if not all — of us by life long ago before any of us even found shifting. if you don't like a situation, "let it go". do your best, and "leave the rest and don't fixate on it". if someone you love doesn't respect you, "let them go". anything that doesn't serve you, "let it go". this is the one advice that got many of us through different situations. but everytime I ever came across a post saying "let go of your desire and watch it come to you", this quote always came to mind.
honestly, I couldn't for the love of God even think of letting go of shifting. I simply didn't want to. it felt like a betrayal to all the people I wanted to shift for, to myself, to my dreams — everything. I would think to myself "how do I not care if i'll shift or not? how do I not care about all these people in my dr I want to meet? I want to care. I have people I love, people I want to see, so how can I not care?", and it would make me so upset because I would see people talking about how they let go of it and it came to them. it almost felt like it was wrong to love, to care, to cherish this opportunity, and to want to be excited for it. I didn't want to "let go" and wanted to keep on holding forever. but then, I realized what the problem was. it wasn't my loving too much, caring too much, or anyone else's "letting go" of their desire to shift. the problem was my idea of what "letting go" means.
in any "normal" situation, "letting go" would mean "not caring" or "not giving your energy out where it isn't respected or celebrated". but. and a big but. when it comes to shifting, "letting go" has a totally different meaning.
• "letting go" in terms of shifting
to me, when it comes to shifting, "letting go" isn't about having an attitude of "if I shift, I shift. if I don't, I don't". while this can help some people, it's fairly hard for others to follow, because some of us WANT to shift and not even think about the "don'ts". so what letting go meant to me was being content where I am, because I knew that sooner or later — I will have what I want, because it is mine, and to stop trying to "make it happen" and simply just let it happen. because i'm a staunch believer that anything that happens, only happens for my own good — always, and if I found shifting, it was for a reason.
now, one could argue that both are the same, and I cooked nothing (lol). and yes, they might be. but. and a big but again. the difference is you CAN care about the people you want to shift for. you can be chalant, you can be obsessed with your dr, your s/o, anything — everything, and still shift. the point is being content. and you, yourself, have to give yourself the closure that whatever you want will be yours. because the feeling of being content always comes from within. don't force it, and take time to give yourself this closure. and care, and be excited, and be assured. you can be all of these things at the same time.
and if you're afraid of it being "not meant for you", then my dear friend, if it wasn't meant for you, I promise you, and I swear to God, it would've never found you. not in this lifetime, not in a million others. never. not EVER, okay? so rest assured that it is a hundred and ten percent meant for you. so, you don't have to grip it so hard you leave claw marks on it. it's right next to you, and that's how it'll stay. and if it "wasn't meant for you and still found you", it would've gone by now. it wouldn't have stayed. so "let go". be at peace. your dr awaits you, and you're going to make it.
and that's all. once again, if you don't understand anything, and want me to clarify, feel free to reach out.
