This is a good link, it's explanation comes from a more scientific approach which is logical. However, when it comes to something like love or a life goal, how can we not be passionate about the desire when we visualize? My belief is that our visualizations should feel so real that we cannot distinguish the difference between reality and the desired reality. This is the part which may seem ordinary, but I would replace this ordinary feeling with a knowing. It's like I expected the desire to happen because I am already mentally living the desire everyday.

Loved this link. I agree with you Berryluv. Ordinary feeling => Knowing. That´s the state

"The natural phases/transition that a mind goes through with respect to a desire are – Exhilaration (joy/love) – Doubt (fear) – Frustration (hatred) – Nonchalance (boredom). When it reaches the final phase of nonchalance, it’s least resistant to manifesting the desire and hence the manifestation starts unfolding with ease. A lot of people either get stuck in doubt or keep trying to re-create the exhilaration (which basically creates more frustration), instead of allowing a natural transition into nonchalance where you are no longer making a big deal out of the desire – this is when you really get in tune with the ordinariness of life, and thus see your desire from the context of reality, this is the stable place from where you allow a smooth manifestation to unfold."
This paragraph is most interesting to me. I believe what happens is that when you start moving towards fear and frustration, instead of thinking "I am afraid but I'm on the right path"(basically acknowledging the fear but not trying to get rid of it), we instead resist the resistance lol and we think "OH NO. I'm afraid. Stop being afraid. Stop stop stop! Think of something happy quick!" When what we should be doing is going with the resistance.
Don't resist the resistance. When the river feels like it's turning into rapids, stay calm and let the currant take you where it wants. Don't try to steer the raft back to calm waters. There will always be more calm waters after the waterfall.
