Live In The End

After assuming your desired state, imagine seeing your friends in your mind's eye. Envision their faces reflecting joy and recognition of your fulfilled wish, implying they see you as you have assumed yourself to be.

Well, first, as I assume that I am it, let me think of my friends – those who really would rejoice with me were it true. Let me imagine that I am seeing them in my mind’s eye. How do they see me? If what I am assuming is true, they should see me as I am seeing myself, and if they are friends, they should rejoice with me. So, let me now assume that I am seeing reflected on the face of a friend that which, if I saw it, would imply he sees in me that which I have assumed that I am. Will that work? Try it! I tell you, from my own personal experience, it works.

This technique leverages the principle that others reflect your inner state. By imagining their joyful reaction, you solidify your assumption and project it onto your external world, which then conforms to your inner vision.

Persistent Assumption

To manifest a desire, one should feel it as an accomplished fact. A specific way to do this is to imagine friends talking about one's good fortune, either rejoicing or expressing envy, and then to persist in imagining these imagined conversations as true until the desire is objectively realized.

Prove to yourself that you are God by feeling your desire is now an accomplished fact. Listen to your friends talk about you. Are they rejoicing because of your good fortune, or are they expressing envy? Imagine their words are true. Persist in imagining they are true. Continue to imagine your desire is already an accomplished fact; and when it is objectively realized, proof will be yours.

This technique uses the power of imagined conversations and the feeling of the wish fulfilled to impress the subconscious mind. By imagining others reacting to one's fulfilled desire, it helps solidify the assumption within oneself.
