Is it ok to just not even think about my desire? I can do sats with feeling just fine, but having to think of the wish fulfilled during the day always kind of feels like effort and ends up causing some resistance

yeah thats like the normal way to do it i think, most success stories i see involve an element of letting go or not even thinking about it before getting it.

Sure, it's okay. But on the flip-side it's okay to think about it. If you are thinking about your desire it should be effortless and free: thinking 'I have to think these things or this way to get what I want'(thinking 'I have to let go' is functionally equivalent), as you seem to be doing, is the opposite of what you should be doing, and you noticed that because it felt bad. 

You can generally trust your instincts on what feels right. If it feels good to think about then it's probably worth thinking about it. Otherwise, why think about it? Think about something else.


A lot of success stories I see, especially the ones in Neville's books, involve thinking about it really deeply and accepting it as an accomplished fact. But it's hard to tell because there's a really complicated reporting bias: some people want to emphasize that they had total faith and control, while others want to downplay their neediness or show some stoicism/aloofness. It may be that in Neville's time and method of gathering testimony there was a bias towards the former, and in our time of anonymous internet accolades there's a bias towards the latter. Might be worth thinking about how you'll want to explain it when you get it and just feel that way now.

I think letting go is important, but it's more to do with letting go of your old concept of self/story, and your limitations, then about letting go of your desire.

would neediness act counter towards your manifestation?

 Honestly I think neediness is fine, maybe even generally a good thing.
 But even better is to actually feel entitled.
 You should feel worthy and glad for your desires,
 and expect their immanent and perpetual fulfillment.
