The scripting manifestation method is an amazing law of attraction technique for those who perhaps struggle with meditation or visualization. Writing things down in your journal also gives you a sense of accomplishment. It feels good to get your dreams and visions out of your head and manifest them on paper (it’s actually the first step to making your dreams come true!).
At the same time, your pen and journal can be your best coaches and mentors because they can help you brainstorm and mindfully try out different realities to see which one you like…

However, this post takes a different angle…it answers the most common question I get about the manifestation scripting method: “Am I doing it right?”.
The short answer is- there’s no right or wrong, and it’s all about mindfully showing up and practicing different scripting methods to see what feels good to you.
That being said…there are a few mistakes you need to be aware of.
For example, some words may keep you stuck in the energy of wanting and needing.
And sometimes, you may find yourself writing and scripting from the energy of desperation.
At the same time, you need to approach your scripting to practice with the right mindset. So, let’s talk about it!
To make it as simple as possible…to succeed with anything (any project or any manifestation method) you need a system.
A proven holistic system that consists of the right energy, mindset, and strategy.
Achieving success is all about mindfully fusing the right mindset, energy, and strategy.
Whenever you feel like you’re getting off track, ask yourself: “What do I need to focus on? Is it my energy, mindset or strategy?”.
While the following manifestation mistakes refer specifically to scripting, writing to manifest, scripting manifestation method (whatever you want to call it), you can also learn from them and align any manifestation method you’ve chosen to practice.

What Is Scripting?
Scripting is a manifestation technique that involves writing about your desires as if they have already come true. It’s essentially storytelling, where you become the main character living out your dream life. Unlike other manifestation methods that may focus on repeating affirmations or visualizing a desired outcome, scripting is about creating a detailed, immersive narrative of your ideal reality. You write from the perspective of having already achieved your goals, describing your experiences, feelings, and the people or events in your life with as much detail as possible.
When scripting, you’re not just listing your goals—you’re painting a vivid picture of a day or a specific moment in your dream life. For example, if you’re scripting to manifest your dream job, you might write, “I’m so grateful to wake up every morning excited for work. My office is bright and inspiring, filled with amazing people who support me. Every project I work on feels meaningful, and I end each day feeling accomplished.” By describing these moments in detail, you’re putting yourself in the emotional and mental state of already having what you desire.
How Scripting Differs from Other Manifestation Techniques
Scripting differs from other manifestation techniques in its emphasis on narrative and immersion. While visualization is about creating mental images and affirmations focus on repeating specific statements, scripting allows you to engage with your desire through a written story. This narrative style enables you to go deeper into your vision, adding layers of sensory details, emotions, and context that bring your dream to life. It’s a highly personalized approach, making it feel more real and within reach.
Why Scripting Works
Scripting works on several psychological and spiritual levels. Here’s why this method is so effective for manifesting dreams:
1. Engages the Imagination
When you script, you tap into your imagination to create a vivid picture of your desired reality. The act of storytelling activates parts of the brain that are associated with creativity, emotion, and problem-solving. As you imagine and write about your ideal life, your brain doesn’t distinguish between what’s real and what’s imagined, so it begins to respond as if you’re already living that life. This engagement with imagination builds emotional connections to your desires, making them feel more tangible and achievable.
2. Influences the Subconscious Mind
The subconscious mind plays a key role in shaping our beliefs, behaviors, and perceptions. By scripting as if your desires have already come true, you’re essentially “programming” your subconscious mind to accept this reality as true. Through consistent scripting, you create a mental environment where your subconscious mind begins to align with your desires, helping you develop beliefs and habits that support your goals. Over time, these beliefs influence your thoughts, decisions, and actions, which align with the reality you’re manifesting.
- Example: If you’re scripting about having a fulfilling career, your subconscious mind gradually starts believing that this is possible for you. This belief can encourage you to take steps in your waking life that align with your goal, such as networking or learning new skills.
3. Builds Emotional Connection and Belief in the Desired Outcome
Scripting is powerful because it connects you emotionally to your goals. When you write as if you’re already living your dream life, you naturally feel emotions like gratitude, excitement, and joy. These emotions are key to manifestation because they align your energy with your desired reality. The more you feel these emotions, the more you reinforce your belief that this outcome is possible and already happening.
Emotionally connecting with your goals through scripting also makes the process enjoyable and motivating. The excitement you feel while scripting builds your faith in the process, which strengthens your commitment to manifesting your dreams. The Law of Attraction suggests that “like attracts like,” so when you feel joy and gratitude as you script, you’re attracting more of these emotions—and the experiences that match them—into your life.
4. Helps to Overcome Limiting Beliefs
Many people have limiting beliefs or self-doubt that block them from fully believing in their dreams. Scripting helps counter these negative beliefs by consistently reinforcing positive scenarios and emotions. When you repeatedly script your ideal reality, you’re training your mind to focus on abundance rather than lack, shifting your perspective from doubt to belief. This shift makes it easier to let go of limiting beliefs and align with a mindset of possibility and worthiness.
- Example: If you struggle with feeling unworthy of financial abundance, scripting about already living a life of financial freedom can gradually shift your self-perception. With time, you’ll start to see yourself as someone who deserves and can attain this level of abundance.
5. Rewires the Brain Through Repetition
Scripting also works through the principle of repetition, which helps rewire the brain. Neuroscience shows that the brain strengthens neural pathways with repeated thoughts and behaviors. By regularly scripting about your desired life, you’re reinforcing a neural pathway that associates you with success, happiness, and abundance. This new pathway helps replace old patterns of self-doubt or negativity, creating a mental environment that supports your manifestation journey.
- Example: Scripting every day or weekly builds a habit of positive thinking, helping you naturally align with optimistic thoughts and behaviors that align with your dreams.
6. Bridges the Gap Between Visualization and Reality
For some people, visualization alone doesn’t fully capture the scope of their goals. Scripting allows you to put your vision into words, which makes it feel more real and attainable. Writing out the specifics of your dream life can clarify the “why” and “how” behind your desires, making the vision feel like a real, achievable possibility. By bridging the gap between your dreams and your current reality, scripting brings you one step closer to the life you’re manifesting.
How to Start Scripting
Starting a scripting practice is simple and doesn’t require any special tools. Here are a few steps to get started:
- Set an Intention: Choose a specific goal or vision you want to script about, like career success, love, health, or personal growth.
- Write in Present Tense: Describe your desired life as if it’s already happening. Write in the present tense, using phrases like “I am” and “I have.”
- Add Sensory Details: Engage your senses by including details about what you see, hear, feel, and smell. This adds depth and makes the experience more real.
- Feel the Emotions: Connect emotionally to what you’re writing. Imagine the joy, peace, or excitement you feel in this reality, and let yourself experience those emotions as you write.
- Repeat and Revisit: Scripting works best with repetition, so practice it regularly to strengthen your connection to your vision.
In Summary
Scripting is a powerful manifestation technique that combines storytelling, emotion, and intention to align your mind and energy with your dreams. By writing as if you’re already living your desired reality, you engage your imagination, influence your subconscious, and build a strong belief in what’s possible. Through consistent scripting, you can overcome limiting beliefs, enhance your emotional connection to your goals, and ultimately manifest the life you envision.
Scripting Manifestation Method Mistakes to Avoid
(I don’t really like using the word “mistake” because I truly believe in: “You don’t fail, you succeed or you learn”. So, never beat yourself up! Life is the best teacher, and there’s always something to learn!)
Mistake #1 Taking Action from the Energy of Lack (and Lacking Awareness around Your Energy)
One of the most essential principles around the Law of Attraction and Manifestation is the Law of Vibration. Your energy and vibration are fundamental to successful and effortless manifestations.
It’s not that much about what you do, but how you do it.
Sounds simple, but this is one of the most misunderstood concepts around LOA.
Even though it’s mentioned in probably most LOA books ever written, it’s hard to comprehend by our minds.
This is why it’s important to give yourself some moment of silence and switch your mind off a bit.
To help you with that, I highly recommend you try my little alignment method…
Give your mind a rest. Instead, focus on your heart.
Yes, switch your attention from your mind to your heart.
Feel the energy around your heart.
Breathe in all the good energy.
Now, breathe out the negative energy of desperation and lack.
Release all the negative vibrations that no longer serve you.
This simple ritual can be done in 1-2 minutes and can really offer a remarkable shift in your vibration.
Heck, even if you don’t do the scripting manifestation method…that little alignment method can make you feel so good, light, and happy!
You can also use it before practicing visualization…
It all starts with energy. And tuning your energy is not as hard as some may say it is.
It took me years to discover this little secret. And when I did, I said to myself: Wow, I can’t believe this can be so easy!
You see, when you tune in your energy and approach everything from higher vibrations of love and gratitude, the mindset and strategy follow…
So, I’d even say that many of you may be done here. Sometimes, it’s just enough to work on your energy…
Sometimes, you may also explore your mindset and strategy…so now, let’s talk about your mindset…
Mistake #2 The Fear-Based Mindset and Intentions
Before you begin your scripting manifestation method practice, ask yourself:
-Am I trying to escape from something?
-Are my intentions love or fear-based?
Example: You want to manifest a new house.
Fear-based intention: I’m scared that I’ll feel like a loser if I don’t manifest. I’ll feel inadequate. And I hate my current house. I gotta manifest fast, or I’ll feel bad about myself. Other people live in better places. All my friends and colleagues live in better neighborhoods. I hate my current reality, I gotta escape. OK, let’s try this scripting thing. Maybe it will work?
Love-based intention: I’m very grateful for my current home because I have a place to live, cook, sleep, read, and study. And it feels so good to know that now that I’m ready to manifest my dream home, I feel safe and secure in the old one. I feel well taken care of in my old house, and I know that it’s only gonna get better and better. I feel so excited about manifesting my new dream house!
Well, it’s not hard to guess…
A love-based mindset always wins because you use scripting and the law of attraction to amplify the good feelings about your current house and your new desired reality (from a place of feeling good, well-taken care of, and grateful).
The second scenario (fear-based mindset) only amplifies the energy of impatience, lack of gratitude, envy, jealousy, feeling bad, feeling inadequate, and unworthy.
Not the best mindset to manifest!

Mistake#3 Using Words That Keep You Stuck
Now that we’re done with the most challenging part – the energy and mindset, this part should be easy, and it will feel so natural to follow the best scripting manifestation method rules such as:
- Always write in the present tense (imagine your dream reality is already here), or in the past tense (it already happened).
Example:
–I’m so happy and grateful that I finally received that 2 K in a tax return. Now, I can invest that money in my online business. I feel so excited that I can now invest in a coach I always wanted to work with because I love learning and growing.
-I’m so happy and grateful for today! It’s 2PM, I finished work and had lots of fun with it, and now I can hang out with my family and friends. I love those high-vibe afternoons. Then, at 6PM, I’m doing yoga and then meet my best friend for dinner. I love it, I feel so alive, and it’s so much fun!
Avoid these words:
-try
-maybe
-hope
-will see
Instead, choose words that radiate the energy of confidence, motivation, empowerment, and achievement.
Pro tip:
Sometimes, you may choose to write a bit less and instead focus on and feel each word that you write.
Example:
I’m so happy and grateful that I’m now a 6-figure earner. I make at least 8k/m or more doing what I love for a living, and my income always grows.
You may choose to slow down. Close your eyes and feel and visualize each word you write.
For example, what comes to your mind as you write:
“6-figure earner”?
It can be a nice holiday, big chunks of money coming to your account, talking to a high-level accountant.
Or, what comes to your mind when you write:
“Doing what I love for a living”?
Even if you’re still not sure how to monetize your passion or what it could be, you can allow yourself to embrace the feelings of:
-fulfillment
-peace
-being of service to others
As you write…
You can close your eyes, and you can visualize having a coffee with your best friend and telling them:
“You won’t believe what happened…I just got this amazing opportunity…”
After all….it’s all about OUR ENERGY.
And, as we already know, it’s all about mindfully fusing the energy, mindset, and strategy.
We are so powerful. You are so powerful!
