"I assumed and nothing happened"..

⊹ ࣪ ˖ baby...sit, let me try to help.

WHAT THIS POST COVERS:

why you "assumed" and it "didn't work"

how you actually assume

what if your brain is overactive and "forcing you to check the 3d"? how to "fix" it

1. The Frustration of “I Assumed, But It’s Still Not Happening”

There it is. The frustration. The doubt creeping in, the whispered thought: But I did everything right. I assumed. I believed. And yet… nothing has changed.

You check the mirror—same face. You check your messages—no new texts from them. You check your reality—still the same, still ordinary, still not what you asked for.

And now, you’re wondering: Did I do something wrong? Did I mess it up? Is this all just fake, some elaborate trick I convinced myself of?

No, darling. You didn’t mess it up. But you are making one critical mistake:

You Never Actually Assumed. You Just Wished.

Let’s be honest with ourselves for a second. Did you assume… or did you hope? Did you decide it was yours… or did you wait to see proof before believing? Did you step into the mindset of someone who already has it… or did you just try to convince yourself for a few days and then panic when nothing changed?

Because here’s the thing—real assumption doesn’t waver.

It doesn’t wake up every morning checking for evidence like a nervous stock investor. It doesn’t crumble the second the 3D doesn’t instantly reflect back its desires. It doesn’t treat the unseen like it isn’t real.

If you planted a seed today, would you dig it up tomorrow to check if it’s growing? No. If you booked a flight for next week, would you panic every day, thinking, "What if the plane doesn’t exist?" No.

So why, when it comes to manifesting, do you refuse to trust?

2. What Real Assumption Actually Is

You don’t assume to “make” something happen. You assume because it’s already a fact.

Assumption is not:

A technique.

A method.

A way to “convince” reality to change.

Assumption is reality.

You aren’t trying to “believe” in something far away. You are stepping into what is already yours.

3. Step-by-Step Breakdown of How to Assume Properly

Step 1: Stop Trying to Control the 3D. The biggest mistake? You are still a slave to your senses.

You look for movement. You check your phone. You stare at your bank account. You analyze every little thing for signs that your manifestation is “working.”

And the second you don’t see proof? Doubt. Panic. Desperation.

Let me tell you something: The 3D is old news. What you see right now? It’s a reflection of your old thoughts, not your current assumptions.

Think of it like this: When you order something online, do you sit there anxiously refreshing the tracking page every five seconds? Do you assume it got lost in the mail just because it hasn’t arrived in an hour? No. You trust it’s coming.

Your manifestation works the same way.

You assume, and then you let go of the need to check.

Step 2: Become the Version of You That Already Has It. This is where most people mess up.

They say “I am rich,” but still panic when they check their bank balance. They say “I have shifted,” but still search for reality checks to confirm it. They say “I am loved,” but still stalk their SP’s social media, waiting for a sign.

So let me ask you: If you really had your desire right now, how would you act?

Would you be stressed about shifting if you had already shifted 100 times? Would you doubt your SP’s love if you were already together? Would you panic over money if you were already wealthy?

No. You would be calm. Certain. Done.

So do that now. Be that person now.

Stop acting like the version of you that doesn’t have it. Stop reacting to the 3D as if it holds any power over you. Stop feeding the version of you that still doubts.

Step 3: Make Your Assumption So Normal That You Forget You Even Wanted It. This is the part nobody talks about: Detachment is not forcing yourself to “let go.” Detachment is when you assume so deeply that you forget it was even something you desired in the first place.

Think about it:

Do you wake up every morning manifesting air to breathe? No, because you assume it’s always there. Do you worry about whether the sun will rise? No, because it’s just a fact of reality.

When you truly assume something, it becomes boring. You stop thinking about it constantly. You stop obsessing over when it will happen. You stop treating it like some miraculous event.

It just is. And when you reach that point? It manifests instantly.

4. Addressing the Persistent Doubters

Now, let’s talk about the people who are still unsure. Who feel stuck, who are thinking: "But what if it’s not working?"

Here’s the truth: If you’re still checking the 3D, you’re not fully assuming.

But Leonora I’m anxious! I can’t stop checking, it’s driving me mad! You’re not alone, and it’s okay. Let’s break it down, because we’re going to handle that right now.

Redirect Your Anxious Thoughts

Some of you can’t just stop overthinking. You try to suppress the thoughts, and they come back louder. So what do you do? You redirect them. Accept that anxiety is just an old habit.

Your brain has spent years, maybe even your whole life, doubting things. Expecting disappointment. Looking for evidence that things won’t work. Of course, it’s going to feel unnatural to just “assume.” You are rewiring years of conditioning. Your mind isn’t trying to sabotage you—it’s just clinging to what it knows. So when the thoughts come? Don’t panic. Don’t fight them. Just recognize them for what they are: old programming.

Say to yourself: “Ha, there it is. My brain trying to protect me with doubt again. That’s cute. But we’re doing things differently now.” Then move on. Don’t engage. Don’t spiral.

Use the “Lullaby” Technique

A super powerful trick for anxious minds:

Right before you fall asleep, affirm gently in your mind, like a lullaby. No intensity. No desperation. Just soft, sleepy, matter-of-fact affirmations. Example: “I already have it. It’s already mine. It’s happening so easily.”

Why does this work? Because your brain is most suggestible in that drowsy state. It absorbs things without resistance. If you do this consistently? Your subconscious will start to believe it on autopilot.

Give Your Mind a “Toy” to Play With

Your anxious brain is like a restless toddler. If you don’t give it something productive to focus on, it will cause chaos. So distract it. Give it a job. Instead of letting it spiral into doubt, tell it to focus on something that supports your assumption.

Daydream in extreme detail about having your desire. Write down your perfect reality like it’s already happened. Imagine a scene over and over until it feels realer than reality.

Your brain wants something to chew on. Feed it the right things.

Yes, your mind is loud. Yes, your doubts feel overwhelming. Yes, it’s hard to stop checking the 3D.

Change the Meaning of Checking the 3D

Some of you will check anyway. And that’s fine. But make it work for you.

If you look in the mirror and don’t see a change, say: “Well, that’s nice. That means the shift is happening behind the scenes.”

If you check your phone and don’t see a text, say: “Perfect. That means the next message will be exactly what I want.”

If you check your bank account and it’s not at 7 figures yet, say: “Obviously. The money is still finding its way to me in the best possible way.”

You get to assign meaning. So make it work in your favor.

Flood Your Brain with Certainty

Every time doubt comes up, respond with: “Oh, that’s funny. I literally already have it, though.” Say it with amusement. Laugh at how ridiculous the doubt is. Make assuming feel more normal than doubting.

5. The Final Truth: You Already Have It. Now Act Like It.

You’re still waiting for proof. That’s the problem. You wake up each morning and search for signs, watching the world like a detective looking for clues. You second-guess. You overthink. You try to “catch” reality shifting in your favor like it’s some slippery thing that might escape you.

But what if I told you that you already have it? No, not “on its way.” Not “manifesting in divine timing.” Now. Already. Yours.

Because the second you assume something is yours, it is. Your reality is shaped by your assumptions. You’re already living the life you assumed. The second you realize that, it will click.

And Here’s Your Final Reminder:

Stop waiting for proof. Stop doubting. Stop acting like your desires are fragile or out of reach.

You already have it. Now act like it.

Your mind, your doubts, your anxiety—none of it can stop you unless you let it. The second you stop chasing? That’s when everything shifts.

a neurodivergent breakdown of the 3D and 4D for manifesting + shifting

key: 3D — the physical world, what you experience in your current reality, intrusive thoughts, emotions ; 4D — imagination, visualization / affirmation for manifestations and desired realities, intentional thoughts, beliefs

table of contents — brief explanation of 3D and 4D – living in the 4D – on belief (and believing even when you don't believe) – decentring the 3D – participating in the 3D

for the longest time, I couldn't grasp how to participate in the 3D without feeling as though I was invalidating or preventing my manifestations. I'm not gonna lie, this was most likely my autism skewing my view.

I naturally have a very black-and-white, rigid way of thinking. many neurodivergent people do, and if you're one of us, or maybe you need a little confirmation that what you're doing is right, stick around for an easy (or easier?) to grasp explanation.

brief explanation of the 3D and 4D

the 3D and the 4D are intimately tied together, with the 3D being a dependent variable and the 4D being an independent one

dependent variable — a variable (denoted by y) whose value is determined by that of another independent variable — a variable (denoted by x) whose value is being changed on its own, not by the influence of another variable

in other words, the 4D is the cause, and the 3D is the effect. if you follow the law of assumption and neville goddard, you've likely heard the quote "consciousness is the only reality." as in, the things we pay attention to, shape our reality. neville goddard says that our reality — the people we interact with, the things we experience, the opportunities given to us — are directly tied to and mirror our subconscious.

living in the 4D

just like a knot can be tied, our reality can be both made and unmade. the 3D is pliable and moldable. in order to do so, we must live in the 4D, as in, live in imagination.

living in imagination isn't simply daydreaming about what you wish to manifest, it's about actively embodying the perception of already having your desire.

if I were to want to manifest being an incredible singer, I would act as though I were, even if in reality my singing could break eardrums. I would sing my favourite songs without worrying about whether or not I was good, because I already know that I am great.

since the 4D directly causes change to the 3D, it is what we do and believe in imagination that will be reflected in reality. what we believe is what we get. if I were to be insecure and believe that I were a terrible singer, the 3D would show me that I was a terrible singer.

living in the 4D means we cannot focus on getting our desire in the 3D, as that would be pedestaling the 3D and grounding yourself in it. just like you cannot centre men in your life as a woman for the sake of your emotional health and self-esteem, you cannot centre the 3D for the sake of your manifestations.

on belief + believing even when you don't believe

this was a really difficult concept for me to grasp. how can I believe in something when I know it's not true? how can I fake a belief?

it's actually terribly easy to. the first step to believing when you don't believe is persistence.

have you ever had an ironic inside joke with your friends, or just did something ironically? I guarantee you, over time it became a natural part of your life, your vocabulary, your mannerisms. that's because your subconscious doesn't know when you're kidding. your subconscious is probably more autistic than you are, in that it will take what you say or do at face value and apply it to your personality. (really makes you think about how often self-deprecating jokes aligns with poor mental health, huh?)

that's why persistence is key. even if at first you don't believe, continue to enforce the idea that you do until it actually manifests within your mind.

decentring the 3D

I came up with this idea after hearing about the feminist concept of decentring men.

what is decentring men?

the concept of decentring men is to turn away from patriarchal and male-centric perspectives and beliefs, instead turning inward and focusing on your own wants, wishes, desires, and needs. instead of looking for validation through men or other social means, you simply validate yourself. where you may have valued the social norm or others, you instead place yourself at the centre of your own life.

how can we decentre the 3D?

just like the patriarchy has taught us to seek validation from external factors like men, the world has taught us to find validation in what is right in front of us — the 3D.

like decentring men, we must learn how to find satisfaction and validation in the 4D instead of seeking instant gratification from the 3D. there are many ways to do this, including;

understanding that you are in fact in your DR / already have your manifestations

it's agreed that time is not linear, it is simply that our brain processes it as such. even if you do not personally believe in shifting or the multiverse, it has been widely agreed that time moves in all directions, not just forward. by that reasoning, you already have your desire, and you're already in your desired reality, because events exist even when our brains have not yet processed them.

take the 3D as though it were someone doubting you

have you ever expressed a dream, desire, aspiration to someone, only to be told you could never do it or it's not possible? think of the 3D as being the same way. what do you do then?

prove them wrong. brush it off your shoulders. read my post about how to do this here.

Schrödinger's Cat — understanding that you are in your DR until you allow yourself to view otherwise

Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment that boils down to the fact that we cannot guarantee an outcome if we do not experience it, i.e. a quantum superposition, which is the principal that something can exist or be represented by multiple values (or outcomes).

the cat is both alive and dead on a quantum level, until we observe an outcome. a path has not yet been carved until we align ourselves to one. you may benefit from my post on the butterfly effect and how it validates shifting and infinite realities, which you can read here.

close your eyes. you are both in your desired reality and your original reality until you prove to yourself otherwise, as in, opening your eyes. at the same time, thanks to infinite realities, you are both in your desired reality, your original reality, and infinite more until you choose to become aware of one singular reality.

when you choose to shift, you are in your desired reality until you allow yourself to come back to your original reality, by quitting. lean into that knowledge — allow yourself to truly feel that when you visualize, affirm, or try to shift to your DR, you are genuinely there. find validation and satisfaction in that. allow yourself to say I shifted whenever you do those things.

as to how you can let yourself say you've shifted when in terms of the 3D, you haven't — that's what the next section is all about.

participating in the 3D

how can we live in the 4D, find satisfaction in the 4D, all without abandoning the 3D? how can we participate in the 3D without forsaking our manifestations?

have you ever been in a situation where you know something, but the other person doesn't know that you know it? let's say you want to hear this person's unfiltered perspective, without justifications or explanations, to see what they add or leave out. you may act shocked to find out information you already knew, angry on their behalf when you know it is them who is actually in the wrong, or confused when you actually aren't.

do exactly that with the 3D, treat it like you would a lying friend or boyfriend when you want to collect all information. you can still be honest about the events in the 3D and your experience with them while also not letting them influence your internal world and 4D.

you don't and shouldn't post success stories publicly if you haven't done them in the 3D, but you can absolutely allow yourself such within your own mind. keep 3D events in the 3D, and keep 4D events in the 4D.

in the 3D, I'm an awful singer and will admit so, but within the 4D and my own mind, I am brilliant and beautiful.

living in the 4D doesn't mean to lie, it just means to compartmentalize your actions in the 3D and the 4D into separate boxes. this includes allowing yourself to feel emotions like frustration, sadness, doubt. let yourself feel them, let them pass, and then realign with your manifestations.

treat the 3D as though it were friend group one, where you act one way, and treat the 4D as if it were friend group two, where you act a different way.

treat your 4D self as though it were the 3D's child, and your 3D self as though it were the 4D's parent. you wouldn't want your child to see you sad, angry, or scared. you wouldn't want your child to see you feeling like things were out of control or not guaranteed. you would instead excuse yourself to a private moment, feel everything you need to in your own presence, and then return to your child more assured. make your child feel as though its dreams are guaranteed and already there. preserve your child's joy, belief, and innocence. do all of that for the 4D.

that's all for now! I hope this helps you all as much as it has helped me

yoshi!!
