When you use affirmations do you need to still keep focusing on your goal?

Sometimes it seems helpless but I guess giving up is no good........

Focus on your objective for as long as it feels good, but you need to accomplish the bare minimum. Visualize for 5-10 minutes once a day, and then let your affirmations do the rest. I've manifested many things this way, and I've believed that positive effort is always the best. The idea is to practise your LOA activities every day until you create your desired outcome is needed to fulfil your goal.

Yes, and may I add feel the feeling of your affirmation already existing.
I got that from Neville Goddard's, "Feeling is The Secret"...
well, and Jesus' instuctions, too!

Rather than just focusing on the goal, it's more so aligning with the feeling of it. Especially when I'm in that space of "simply allowing"

If you study Abraham's LoA teachings, they will say the less you dwell on it especially allowing dount in your mind, then you will more easily allow/not be blocking it. And that if you just find fun and enjoyable things to think or do, you REALLY will be much more open to receiving it.

Its important to remember that your subconscious, your higher self, the universe, etc. already know what your desires are. And it is already created.

You are not creating it by doing manifestation work. It already exists.

Manifestation work is done so that we feel better. When we feel better, we are in alignment with ALL that we want. Whether you have been thinking about each specific desire or not.

So you don't need to focus on your affirmation all day or for hours, unless it feels good.

The main thing to try to achieve for as long as possible each day is feeling good.

If you are trying to figure out how to spend your evening, and you have a few options, ask yourself which one feels the best. Then go do that one.

If you don't know what to do at all, ask yourself what would feel good right now? Meditate, go for a walk, relax, read a book, watch as how, etc.

If you must do something you don't want to, see if you can do it another time. If you can't, then find a way to feel better about it before you start.

The only thing you have to do is feel good. If affirmations get you there, then awesome. If it becomes a chore, or if you convince yourself you must do them to attract, then you are not doing them because they are fun and make you feel good. So then, let them go and go do something that feels good instead.
