The Law of Assumption

The Law of Assumption is a powerful concept that can transform your life by reshaping how you perceive and interact with the world. Popularized by Neville Goddard, this principle posits that whatever you assume to be true becomes your reality. By assuming the feeling of your desire already fulfilled, you align your thoughts and actions with that desired state, thus attracting it into your life.

Law of Assumption

Understanding the Law of Assumption

At its core, the Law of Assumption is about embodying the mindset and emotional state of already having achieved your goals. This concept hinges on the idea that our external reality is a reflection of our internal beliefs. By changing our assumptions, we can alter our reality.

Key Principles of the Law of Assumption:

  1. Assume the Desired State: Believe that your goal is already achieved. Feel the emotions associated with that achievement.
  2. Live from the End: Act and think as if your desired outcome is your current reality.
  3. Persist in the Assumption: Maintain this belief regardless of external circumstances or current reality.

To harness the Law of Assumption for career advancement, start by clearly defining your career goals. Whether you aim for a promotion, a new job, or success in your current role, visualize yourself in that position.

  1. Visualize Success: Close your eyes and imagine yourself in your desired role. See the office, feel the satisfaction, and experience the confidence.
  2. Embody the Role: Act as if you are already in that position. Dress the part, speak with authority, and take on responsibilities that align with your future role.
  3. Positive Affirmations: Use affirmations to reinforce your new belief. Phrases like “I am successful in my career” or “I am thriving in my dream job” can help solidify your new reality.

Applying the Law of Assumption to Wealth Creation

For wealth, the Law of Assumption requires you to shift your mindset from lack to abundance. Assume the feeling of financial freedom and prosperity.

Steps to Apply for Wealth:

  1. Visualize Abundance: Picture your bank account filled with money, imagine the freedom to buy what you want, and feel gratitude for your financial success.
  2. Financial Affirmations: Repeat affirmations like “I am wealthy,” “Money flows to me easily,” and “I am financially free.”
  3. Act Wealthy: Make financial decisions as if you are already wealthy. This doesn’t mean overspending but rather managing your finances wisely, investing in your growth, and making choices that reflect abundance.

Living from the End

Living from the end means embodying the state of your desired outcome. This requires a mental shift where you act, think, and feel as if you have already achieved your goals. By doing so, you align your actions with your beliefs, making it easier for your goals to manifest.

Tips for Living from the End:

  1. Daily Visualization: Spend a few minutes each day visualizing your desired outcome.
  2. Gratitude: Practice gratitude for what you have and what you are manifesting.
  3. Consistent Practice: Regularly reinforce your new beliefs and assumptions through meditation, journaling, and affirmations.

By incorporating the Law of Assumption into your daily routine, you can start living from the end and manifesting the career and wealth you desire. Remember, the power lies within your beliefs and assumptions. Start today and transform your reality.

Do you feel lucky? Yes, you are

“The Luck Factor” by Richard John Wiseman demystifies the concept of luck by presenting it as a skill that can be developed. Through engaging narratives, scientific insights, and practical exercises, the book offers readers a roadmap to enhance their luck and overall well-being. It challenges the conventional understanding of luck as a random occurrence, arguing that individuals hold the key to creating their luck.

Principles:

The author identifies four main principles that underpin luck, explaining that luck is not a mystical force but rather a set of habits and behaviors that can be learned and cultivated.

  1. Maximize Your Chance Opportunities: Being open to new experiences, building and maintaining a strong network, and recognizing opportunities when they arise.
  2. Listen to Your Lucky Hunches: Developing intuition through relaxation and meditation, listening to gut feelings, and acting on them.
  3. Expect Good Fortune: Maintaining a positive outlook, setting achievable goals, and expecting success can create a self-fulfilling prophecy of good luck.
  4. Turn Your Bad Luck Into Good: Adopting a resilient attitude, learning from mistakes, and finding the silver lining in adverse situations.

Tactics: How to Implement the Principles

The author provides actionable tactics to implement these principles:

  1. Create and Maintain a Luck Journal: Record daily events and reflect on lucky and unlucky experiences.
  2. Network and Stay Connected: Encourage social interactions and engage with diverse groups to create chance opportunities.
  3. Develop Intuition through Mindfulness: Practice mindfulness techniques to enhance intuition and recognize hunches.
  4. Set Positive Expectations: Visualize success and maintain a hopeful attitude.
  5. Cultivate Resilience: Embrace failure as a learning opportunity and remain optimistic.

Example: Concrete Examples to Show the Principles and Tactics in Action

Wiseman illustrates the principles and tactics through real-life stories and scientific experiments:

  • Luck School: Participants learned to implement the principles and showed significant improvements in luck, happiness, and satisfaction.
  • The Case of Lucky and Unlucky People: Through interviews and observations, the author identifies patterns that differentiate “lucky” and “unlucky” individuals.
  • Exercises and Techniques: The book offers practical exercises, such as visualization, networking tips, and reflective questions, to apply the principles in daily life.

The author describes a “Luck School” where participants engage in exercises related to all four principles. It includes practice, reflection, goal-setting, and behavioral changes to increase luck.

These exercises and techniques are designed to be practical and accessible, allowing readers to apply the principles of luck in their daily lives. By engaging with these exercises, the author argues that anyone can increase their levels of luck, confidence, and success.
