I was thinking about the progression manifestation usually follows, and came up with the P-theory.
Potential: Any well-written book about quantum mechanics can offer good stuff about potential and energy. For my purpose, I'll say that before you manifest something into your life, a thought arises that you might potentially want a material object, person, or event to become part of your reality. As you consider this, you move to the next step.
Possibility: Anything is possible. At this step, you can be either a possibility thinker or a nay-sayer. A possibility thinker knows it "could" happen, develops the thought-form, and doesn't get concerned with the "how." These people have learned the quantum field of potential deals with the how, and usually in remarkable ways. A nay-sayer gets bogged down because he or she thinks, How am I going to ever accomplish this?! Henry Ford said it best, "Whether you think that you can, or that you can't, you are usually right."
Probability: If you make it past the second step, more than likely, you've begun to see some signs that indicate whether your thought-form is following a natural progression or is getting tweaked along the way, or even seems to come to a halt. This is the step where you observe and either take action or wait for inspiration about what to do next.
Patience: This is where most people feel challenged. Some thought-forms manifest pretty darn quickly. I've had them take moments while others have taken years. It's about alignment and timing more than anything else. A manifestation I'm living right now was a thought-form five years ago. It took that long for me to meet the first person who introduced me to the second person who was needed to make this aspect of my reality what it is.
Present: You can look at this word two ways. Once your thought-form becomes your reality, you live it in the present moment. Or, you can also see it as the present, the gift, that arrived for you because you attracted it into your life. Or, perhaps, the gift is you didn't attract it into your life.
Play: Certainly, some things in life are serious matters. Just don't let the serious side of life impact your willingness to play with the rest of it. A nay-sayer believes life is all work or drama and little play. A possibility thinker believes life encompasses all of it and usually aims to have "Play" the column with the most checkmarks in it, though it may be called "Enjoyment" or "Fulfillment." One thing is certain, the more you play with manifestation, the less of a nay-sayer you remain.
One of the best things you can do for yourself is to wake every day and agree to allow that this new day is, indeed, one that holds the potential to let anything be possible and that some things are probable. Be patient and consciously choose to be in the present. Trust that if you open to receive, your present will arrive. It may take five minutes, it may take five years; and, it often is even better than you imagined.
If this is new information for you, give it a whirl. And remember to do it again and again.
