How to Ignore 3D Reality When Manifesting [The Law of Assumption]

How to Ignore Your 3D Reality: What You’ll Learn 

• Understand how our reality is shaped by our thoughts and the vividness of our imagination.
• Shift your focus from external realities to internal states for meaningful change.
• Consistently embody the feeling and state of having already achieved your desires.
• Maintain a strong belief in your desired outcomes, even in the face of contradicting external circumstances.
• Develop a positive and empowered self-view, as your external world reflects your internal state.

What Is 3D Reality?

 3D reality is the term used to describe the external world that we perceive with our five senses. It is the result of our past thoughts and beliefs that have been projected onto the screen of space.

If you’re into manifesting, you’ve probably heard people talking about this term.

The 3D world is the tangible environment and circumstances that we experience through our senses.

It encompasses everything you can touch, see, hear, and measure. But it’s just one aspect of a much broader universe that is governed by your inner world.

You can create your desired reality by using the power of your imagination and the law of assumption.

The Law of Assumption

The law of assumption states that whatever we assume to be true, whether consciously or unconsciously, will manifest in our experience. The law of assumption is the core principle of Goddard’s teachings.

Neville Goddard

Neville Goddard was a prominent figure in the New Thought movement. 

Goddard taught that our consciousness is the only reality. The external world is only a reflection of our inner state. So by changing our inner state, we change our external reality. 

Therefore, the key to manifesting is to assume the state of the wish fulfilled. This means that we must develop the feeling and conviction that we already have what we want.

However, many people find it hard to do that. They let their senses and logic dictate their mood and actions. As a consequence, they fail to accomplish what they want. 

That’s why it is crucial to learn to ignore 3D reality when manifesting.

Reflection of Internal State

Most people don’t realize that their mindset (often one of scarcity, competition, and limitation) is coloring their perception.

In fact, your physical reality is exactly like your reflection in the mirror. When you smile you see your reflection smiling too. When you frown it frowns too. 

For example:

Let’s say that you view every colleague as a competitor and every project as a battlefield.

This attitude will not only affect your mental well-being but also manifest in your external reality. 

Opportunities for collaboration or creative growth will be overlooked because your mindset isn’t aligned with them.

Your physical reality is a reflection of your inner state, not the cause of it. It is a shadow, not a substance.

What you see around you is often a residue of your previous mindset.

What Does It Mean to Ignore The Current 3D Reality?

How to Ignore Your 3D Reality?

It’s time to talk about how to ignore the current reality. 

There are a few ways to approach this.

Let’s start with the law of assumption first. 

Using the Law of Assumption and Neville’s Teachings

To use this law effectively, you need only two steps – assume your wish and then persist in it. 

Here’s how.

#1 Assume the state of the wish fulfilled

Imagine that you already have what you want and feel the reality of it. Assume that it is done and that nothing can stop it. 

• Let’s say you want to manifest a specific person. You can affirm: “I enjoy being in a loving relationship with (name of the person).” 
• If you want to manifest money, you can visualize holding a check with the amount you want.
• To manifest health, you can feel yourself being healthy and energetic. 

#2 Persisting in the Assumption

Persisting in your assumption means maintaining your desired state regardless of the 3D reality. It’s the key to ignoring reality. 

But how do you do that?

• Be faithful, confident, and self-loving in your state of the wish fulfilled.
• Ignore the facts and the opinions of others that contradict your wish.
• Live from your imagination and not from your senses.

“Persisting” is one of these things that are simple, but not necessarily easy.

Frankly, most of my clients seek me out because they need help with this step. That’s precisely why I won’t wrap up this blog post just yet. 

We’ll cover common challenges and practical strategies next. 

The Psychological and Emotional Challenges

The nature of our 3D world brings its own set of emotional and psychological challenges. 

Many people give up on their wish when facing challenges. They revert to their old state, accepting their 3D reality as the final truth.

Consequently, they are canceling their wish and creating more of the same. 

Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen to you.

We’ll discuss and clarify these challenges so you can prepare for them. 

Dissonance

There’s often a conflict between what we desire and what we currently experience.

This dissonance can lead to frustration, struggle, and doubt.

We get anxious, impatient, or desperate when we don’t see results.

By doing so, we are reinforcing the old state and blocking the realization of our desire.

Lesson to remember:

Your current situation is only a temporary reflection of your past state. It has no power over you unless you give it power.

Attachment

We tend to get attached to our physical reality, mistaking it for the ultimate truth. Then we try to control and manipulate our external world. 

Lesson to remember:

The outcome is already determined by our inner state. You don’t need to do anything to make it happen. You need to be it. 

Whatever your current circumstances are, they’re not just a random occurrence. They are a reflection of your past thoughts, beliefs, and actions. 

Common Misconceptions and Doubts

“Seeing is Believing” Fallacy

We’re conditioned to trust only what we can physically observe. In the realm of manifestation, belief precedes seeing. Nurture the seeds of your desired reality in your mind and heart. Only then can they bloom in your physical world.

Instant Change Expectation

A common doubt is the expectation of immediate change. Manifestation is a process. In most cases, shifts in 3D reality take time.

Doubting the Power of Thoughts

There’s often skepticism around the impact of thoughts and emotions on physical reality. However, countless studies and success stories support this interconnectedness.

Misunderstanding the Role of Physical Reality

Your physical reality is not a fixed determinant of your future. It is a reflection of past thoughts and beliefs. You can transform by changing focus. The key to successful manifesting is shifting your focus from what is to what can be. 

Your current circumstances are temporary and changeable. They’re not an end, but rather a stepping stone toward your desired reality.

Bridging Your Current Reality with Your Desired One

Your manifestation journey requires more than occasionally visualizing your wish. You must bridge the gap between your current 3D reality and the one you want.

And, as I mentioned, that’s no easy task. 

Especially when we are constantly bombarded by stimuli and information that seem to contradict our wish. 

So, how can we bridge that gap, without losing faith or giving up on our assumption?

Here are some extra tips and techniques that can help you overcome this challenge.

Rise Above Body and Environment Influences

Recognize how your physical body and immediate environment often dictate your thoughts and feelings, anchoring you to your current reality.

For example, if you are feeling sick or tired you may find it harder to focus on your desired state and feel positive emotions. The same goes if you are surrounded by clutter or noise.

To transcend these physical limitations, you can try the following techniques:

Mindful Awareness:

Regularly practice mindfulness to understand how your environment and bodily sensations influence your mental state. By becoming more aware of your thoughts and feelings, you can detach yourself from them. Choose to focus on your desired state instead.

You can also use mindfulness to appreciate the positive aspects of your current reality, like the beauty of nature, or the comfort of your home.

Creating a Conducive Environment:

While you can’t always change your environment, you can create small sanctuaries that foster a sense of peace and alignment. For example, you can decorate your room with objects that remind you of your desired reality, such as posters, souvenirs, or books.

You can also create a daily ritual that helps you connect with your desired state. For instance, you can listen to affirmations, read inspirational quotes, or write a journal.

Shifting Time Perception

Often, our minds are trapped in the regrets of the past or the anxieties of the future. When we dwell on the past, we reinforce the negative thinking and patterns that keep us stuck where we are. When we worry about the future, we create resistance and doubt that prevent us from receiving our wishes.

Here are 2 ways you can shift your time perception:

Present Moment Exercises:

Engage in activities that anchor you in the present moment. Some examples are deep breathing, meditation, or even simple acts like savoring a meal or observing nature. By being fully present and aware, you can access the power of the now (which is the only time that matters for manifestation). 

Practice affirmations that emphasize the power and potential of the present moment. For example, “I am fully here and now, creating my future,” or “I am living in the end, enjoying my desired reality.”

Reframing Past and Future:

Learn to view past experiences as lessons rather than regrets and future events as opportunities rather than sources of anxiety. 

You can also use revision, a technique that Neville taught, to change your past and future in your imagination. Simply imagine a different scenario that matches your desired reality.
