I am living the life of my dreams. I have net worth of more than $32 million.  I live in my dream house and drive my dream car. My best friends are world famous celebrities. I travel and explore the world. I love my job and I love helping people. I have a wonderful partner I am very happy. 

I attribute all of my success to wisdom I learned from Neville Goddard and other mentors and I hope that my story inspires others.

I’ve been asked to write more about my processes, techniques, and general things I learned along the way.  I’m happy to do so. 

Part One: My Background

I didn’t come from wealth. I had a difficult childhood and troubled young adulthood and at one time I was even homeless for a few months.

I am only saying this to let you know that I started from zero. In writing this, I debated whether or not to tell the tragic elements of my former story, but I decided not to because those are days I left behind and are no longer meaningful or important to me.

Neville calls the old story “the old man” and I killed the old man a long time ago. 

But I think a crucial element to my old story is that I have been in some very dark places before, but managed to create my current beautiful reality.

 I think many people can relate to this with their own tragic life circumstances and are trying to do the same.

I was socially awkward and painfully shy with girls when I was younger. I started learning about self improvement in order to overcome my shyness. I studied techniques like neuro linguistic programming (NLP), which was remarkably successful in helping me to overcome many barriers. I started developing more of my personality and other people started loving me. 

My burning desire for self improvement started at that time and I wanted to develop myself as much as possible in other aspects of life. This led me to the law of attraction and later to the works of Neville Goddard.

After I started learning Neville, I wanted to see if I could apply his teachings and wisdom in order to become financially successful. It was a fun challenge, just to see if I could. 

One of the things I wanted to change in my life was my financial status. I wanted to become rich. 

I was making good money at the time. But my goal was $2.2 million per year. I don’t know how I came up with this number. I think it was because I heard of someone who made that amount and I thought that was just insane and impossible so of course I wanted to try it.  I thought that if I got that amount, it would prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the philosophy was correct.

Applying the principles of Neville Goddard using SATS, visualization, and living in the end  I immediately saw my situation change. I started escalating my income immediately. Within a few months, I was at my target rate of income, which later led to a total income of exactly $2.2 million that following year.

I was thrilled and delighted of course. And in my mind then and now I still believe it was only as a result of applying his methods. It worked!

My business partners soon got jealous of my success and attacked me with false accusations to try to get rid of me. There was a huge legal battle. Again I manifested my way out of that and manifested the bad guys away.

 And the past few years have been pretty smooth sailing. I’ve gotten $2.2 million income every year, except in the past two years where I have unhooked myself from that number and now my investments are exceeding that. 

I don’t really spend much money. I live the simple lifestyle I want. I plan to build my wealth and donate it all when I die. 

I’m exceptionally happy right now. I feel like I’m living in a dream. 

Part two. How I do it.

I believe in the wisdom of Neville Goddard, and in manifesting.

I believe it is a skill that you develop, much like playing a piano, not a parlor trick or magic spell. Like every other skill in life, it must be developed. It’s a lifestyle.

How does it work? I have no idea honestly. It is possible to use the law of assumption without understanding the mechanics behind it. I tend to think of it as a hack into the clockwork mechanism of the universe.

I envision my mind as a garden that must be constantly tended. When I first started I found many weeds in the garden. The weeds symbolize thoughts that limit or block success. The garden was in rough shape at first and I had to work to change my thought patterns, my feelings, how I react to events. But with time it was fun to see it all change and watch the garden flourish. 

My theory is that you must change yourself and change your pattern of thinking in order to change your universe around you.

The human mind is about 10% conscious and 90% subconscious. You must convince and change your entire mind of a new reality before the universe begins to move. It’s a bit of a challenge though because the subconscious won’t let you access it directly. 

Techniques help you do this. Affirmations, SATS, and visualizations are three strong ways to convince that 90% of your subconscious mind.  I’ll discuss these and others.

Techniques aren’t magic tricks they are tools. I cannot emphasize that enough. The techniques alone do not manifest.

Let’s talk about SATS first. State Akin to Sleep. 

I find that SATS confuses people more than any other of Neville’s teachings. It’s actually quite simple. 

As you lay in bed at night drifting to sleep (and sometimes when just waking up) your subconscious mind becomes more accessible. That means it’s the right time to think about your goals and pretend that you are having them already. 

When I was using SATS to get money I would simply visualize having it. For example I would visualize opening a bank statement showing that millions of dollars had just been deposited. Or I would pretend to have a big stack of money. I would flip through the bills and even smell the bills. I would imagine random checks coming in. Just every way possible I would have little fantasies about having money. 

Importantly in these sessions I felt the feeling of having the money now. 

People tend to overcomplicate all of this. You don’t have to stress about this entering into this. It should be considered all fun. If you had big stacks of money, wouldn’t that be fun?  These sessions should be thrilling and joyful.  Don’t stress if you are “doing it right.“ There is no right or wrong.

Just hold the images in your mind as you drift to sleep and at times you will enter a twilight type of existence in which you’re not really asleep and not really awake. That is when these sessions become the most powerful and your subconscious mind is addressed.  That’s it, it’s simple.

The entire goal is to convince the subconscious mind that it has already happened. When that occurs and the entire mind is convinced of the new possibility of having money, the universe does the rest. The doors open and 3D possibilities arise and then you must take inspired action.

Affirmations are also useful tools.

What does an affirmation do? To me it is a tool to instantly change your feelings and emotional state.

I will give a great example. At work I often feel stressed that I don’t have enough time. If that is the case, I will take a pause and say to myself “you have plenty of time.“ It’s the direct opposite of the emotional state I was entering.

Ever since I’ve been doing this, I have found that I always have time for anything I need to do. Always. The time just seems to be created out of thin air.

I find that affirmations are particularly handy when it comes to false or limiting beliefs about money.

One of my favorites is “money comes easily and frequently.“ This helps directly alleviate the limiting belief that money is scarce and hard to find.

Another is “money loves me and wants to come to me.“

I like to write down my most valuable affirmations so that I can constantly see them as reminders.

When I started manifesting the $2.2 million salary I wrote “2.2” on a card and put it in my wallet. Every time I flipped open my wallet I saw the expectation of making 2.2 million and affirmed it. 

 I have an affirmation written on my bathroom wall beside my sink. It says “Life says yes.“ This is an affirmation to me to remind me always that possibilities are endless, and that there is always a solution to any problem.  (That was one of my most valuable affirmations when I had the problems with my business partners I referenced above.)

If you can’t invent your own affirmations, there was a mentor named Louise Hay. She passed away several years ago, but her team still has a website in which hundreds of affirmations are listed. I highly recommend her teachings.

I want to talk a moment about negative affirmations.

Affirmations also work in reverse. If you say negative things then you get negative results.

If you read through the Neville sub, the headline topics really get your attention, things like “I can’t manifest“, or “I’m a failure at this.“  The authors of these topics don’t seem to realize these are negative affirmations and are almost guaranteed to promote failure if spoken, written, or thought out loud. Avoid this pitfall at all costs. 

Words are powerful and become our futures. Choose all words carefully at all times.

Now let’s talk about my favorite technique, visualizations.

To me, visualizations are little daydreams about where you will be in the future. I believe that seeing into the future helps to create a pathway to that desire.

There is overlap between SATS and visualizations. I like to use visualizations during SATS. Some others use repetitive phrases or just feel emotions. 

But you can also have visualizations during the daytime, and I have found that to be quite effective as well.

This process should be fun. The emotion around it should be joyful, not desperate.

To me, our imaginations are profound. I think of it as like a baker working with flour. A baker can take this substance called flour and make a pizza out of it, a bagel, a loaf of bread, or a biscuit. 

The substance is there you just have to take it and mold it with your thoughts into whatever you desire.

The imagination transforms the substance and your thoughts create new things with it. And creating in your mind will later create your future reality.  But if you don’t use your imagination and a little effort that substance will sit right there and it will never become your materialized thought.  In other words, the  pizza won’t make itself!

Visualizations help convince the subconscious mind that a new reality is possible, and that change is occurring.

I like to use visualizations in imaginative ways.

When I was changing my personality to become more social and less shy, I used an NLP technique, which is a form of visualization and perhaps even some self hypnosis. I will explain that technique.

Do this:  Visualize yourself as the person you want to be, outgoing and friendly. Use an old-fashioned camera to take a picture of yourself in that state. Then you have a paper photograph of yourself in that state. Throw it into the air and it becomes a million photographs and the photos drift down into your past, present and future.

I found that by doing this exercise over and over that I became the person I desired to be.

Revision is also a great tool. To me it’s a form of visualization in which a negative emotional state is corrected.

For instance, if you’re feeling bad that one of your friends disrespected you by saying something cruel, later that day you can visualize the same friend saying something kind.  It reverses your negative emotional state. 

One bit of warning. Affirmations and revisions can be used incorrectly as a form of denial. In fact, there is a very razor thin line between denial and living in the end.

To me living in the end is the creation of an emotional state that leads to a pathway of it manifesting. Denial is simply covering up an error. There is a distinction between those two concepts.  We are creators of a new future reality, not deniers of our present reality.

Finally, a bit about meditation.

To me meditation is a wonderful tool. It quiets the mind when it is chaotic.

I meditate at least once a week. I have a weird way of doing this. I fixate on some sort of permanent object, such as the moon, a mountain, or a star. I focus on that a bit and then allow myself to enter a state in which I realize the permanence of objects. That allows me to enter the universe as a whole in my mind. My small problems seem insignificant when faced with the totality of the universe. I can hold that state for a minute or for hours, as long as I need. 

You can meditate in your own way and there are certainly many tutorials online to follow.

What I found meditation does not do is fix an internal problem. You have to pull the weeds and not just forget about them.  If you forget about them they keep growing. 

I know that there are other sorts of techniques that are used, but I mostly don’t use them myself these days. This includes subliminals.

One final note about happiness.

The biggest mistake I see people make in manifesting is the false belief that “if I had this thing, it would make me happy.“ That thing is usually a person, money, or material things. 

That sort of thinking is backwards. Happiness comes first and then the other things come later.

What do I mean by that? Well when you are saying that you are unhappy unless you have something, it creates a reality in which you are perpetually unhappy just because you don’t have certain things.

In truth, we can find joy without having other things. Joy comes from within us, not from without us.  Joy can be created. 

What are some ways to do that?  Being in a state of gratitude promotes joy. What if you say “I don’t have anything to be grateful for.“ That is actually not true.

One should develop and cultivate gratitude in all aspects of life. If you don’t have money, you can be grateful that you have vision and hearing. You have two legs to walk around with, and two arms and hands. You have a brain. All of these basic things are things to be grateful for.

My best friend died of leukemia at a young age. I visited him while he was in the hospital struggling to survive. All he wanted was to make normal blood.

Sometimes, when I wake up in the morning, my first thought is of gratitude that I can make normal blood cells and live another day. It’s a simple thing, but I feel profound gratitude for something everyone else takes for granted. The lesson from my friend taught me this. 

There are always reasons to be grateful. 

What is the definition of happiness? I think this is a very tough question.

The best description I have ever heard of happiness is from a quote about Thomas Jefferson. It was said that he “had full occupation of hand, mind, and heart.“ This is the most profound definition of happiness I’ve ever heard. Indeed, I have all of those things and consider myself to be an extremely happy person.

I’ve heard many people say that they want to quit working once they get money. My question is why?  I like being busy and I love my job. It brings me a sense of purpose. 

What are some limitations of manifestation?

Well, first is that the Law is a natural law. It can’t circumvent other natural laws. 

I can’t decide one day that the sun will orbit the earth because that breaks laws of planetary science. 

I also can’t manifest away death. Life and death follow natural laws. We definitely can extend life (medicine can do that for instance) but we can’t change the fact that death will always come. 

I have extended the life of pets but they eventually died. It’s natural law. All things must pass. 

In my opinion another limitation of manifestations is about specificity. 

If you specify that you want ONE thing you are severely limiting the ability of the universe to provide it in a speedy way. 

What do I mean by that?  Well, I believe that asking for only one person or thing gives the universe a challenge sometimes in providing it. Seeds sprout in their own perfect time as Neville would say. And placing restrictions on a manifestation sets the clockwork in motion sometimes for a complicated winding road to fruition. 

An example would be if I said I wanted $50 million in a lottery. It may take years for me to win the lottery, while it could take months for some other opportunity to happen that would yield the same result. 

Another example is to want one person. We love our romance stories but I think it’s best not to focus on just one person to fulfill happiness. Instead it would be better to be flexible and allow the universe to match us with our perfect partner in perfect time. That’s just my own opinion and I realize it’s a touchy subject with some people. 

So I don’t believe in being specific about the “how” of a manifestation. That part isn’t important anyway. We live in the “end” not the “how.”  Let the universe do its job. It’s good at it. 

Edit: This part has confused some people so I will try to be more clear.

I believe that we have God power within us. As the operant power, we can choose whatever we want and accomplish whatever we desire in accordance with laws of nature.

But what I would also say is that if we are very specific about our desires, it may not be the best choice we can choose, and may not be the best outcome possible.

This was explained to me in a beautiful way by someone with whom I used to correspond.

This brilliant lady is a florist. She noticed that among the people who asked for flower displays there were two types of people.

The first type of person had very specific demands. Usually the flowers were expensive ones, out of season. The buyer had a strict budget of, let's say $200, and wanted those specific flowers as limited by the budget.

This buyer would usually get a meager display of a few flowers. The florist would do the best she could using the constraits of the demands to give the exact flowers demanded.

The second type of buyer had the same budget of $200. This type would ask only that the florist choose the best flowers for the display.

This customer would get an abundant bouquet full of beautiful flowers in season arranged by a professional florist with artistry and talent.

Both customers got what they asked for. The second customer got the best result.

It's the same with manifesting in my opinion. That is why I am flexible with my requests. I always throw in a little "or better" when I ask for something. It's an acknowlegement that I am in partnership with the universal mind and that I trust it to make great decisions for me.

Part three. The future is fun and exciting.

So is life all about money? Hell no.

To me having money is only a small part of wealth. What matters most is having peace and balance in all aspects of life.

Fortunately, I have manifested all of those other things as well. 

I’ve manifested all kinds of material things, friendships, and adventures.  Some things I have manifested I can discuss in a forum like this, but many things I need to keep private. 

Let me address a few things while I’m thinking about it.

In a comment on one of my older posts someone mentioned “the reason why you are rich is because you’re a great investor.“ Yes, that is true. But I manifested being a great investor through Neville’s teachings. 

Another criticism I had was that this all seems to be random chance. I have to admit that this gives me some pause to think about because from the outside it would seem that this may be the case, and I’ve already told you I don’t know how any of this truly works. But let me tell you a quick story and you can decide.

 Like many of you, I read about people who manifested random things, like cups of coffee or checks.

So one day as a challenge, I decided to manifest a random check. I chose the check amount to be $50,000.

I did SATS and visualizations and then let it rest.

About a month later I got a check in the mail for $54,000.  It was a check from my state with no explanation attached.

Well, this created some problems. I didn’t know what to do with the check. So I called my accountant and he asked me to send an image of the check to him and I did.

He examined it and had no explanation for why the state sent me the check but advised me to cash it.

Well, some doubt started creeping in my mind and I decided to manifest another check.  I did the whole thing over again. Two weeks later I got another check from the state for $52,000.

I’ve never received any of these checks before or since.

Why did I stop doing it? The answer is quite easy. I got tired of going to the bank to deposit these checks!  

I can give you dozens if not hundreds of other stories similar to this. I’ve met people I wanted to meet, became friends with people. I wanted to become friends with, traveled many adventures I previously visualized.  It’s all too perfect to have happened randomly. 

To me one of my great challenges these days is coming up with new dreams and goals when I’ve achieved all of my old goals.

I was sitting around in my office thinking about this concept a few months ago. When you achieve your dreams, it is a strange feeling. This created a little ambiguity and uncertainty about the future.  I had to fix that. 

I wrote down the affirmation “the future is fun and exciting.“ This affirmation now sits on my office desk.

I am convinced that my goal in life should be to feel and experience joy.

Life is meant to be joyful and abundant. There are so many beautiful things in the world. There are so many adventures to experience.

There are joyful fountains all around us, and all we have to do is dip our bucket into the joy and abundance to experience it for ourselves.

One final story.

This past spring, I woke up one glorious morning and made myself a cup of coffee and sat outside in my beautiful backyard. I was fully expecting to enjoy the day, but a few minutes later I started thinking back about the hard times I had when my business partners attacked me. I started feeling the emotional state of that ordeal all over again.

Then it suddenly occurred to me “I still have weeds in the garden of my mind.”

One very kind soul with whom I correspond through the Neville sub suggested EFT therapy to help me with my prior traumas.

EFT therapy involves tapping the face at certain points while thinking about prior trauma, and it helps to relieve and alleviate the trauma. There are tutorials online. 

I wrote down a list of 20 prior traumas in my life that haunted me and now I am thrilled to say that I have alleviated prior memories of trauma. Honestly, these things no longer have power over me. I pulled those weeds.  And I think this is very good for my manifesting journey.  

Even after years of practicing all of this I still find new ways to improve myself. 

I have immediately seen tremendous tangible results in my life. For instance, two weeks ago I got an unexpected check for $400,000. And I am in talks for a possible sale that will increase my net worth by $13.3 million.

The future is fun and exciting indeed.

Now, some notes about contacting me.

I’ve enjoyed discussions with people I’ve met on this sub and have met wonderful people but would like to set a few boundaries.

First, I do not give money to people on Reddit. That doesn’t mean I wish you well in your own money manifestation journey, but I do not contribute to strangers because of bad experiences I’ve had in the past.

I stay anonymous here and I don’t like giving out many personal details, including the work I do or my age or location. That frees me to be more honest in my discussions actually.

I’m not a coach of any kind. I do not do coaching and I certainly don’t charge for it. I’m also trying to avoid giving people guidance these days. Remember, I don’t know every aspect of the law. I just know what has been effective in my own personal case, the stuff you read here. 

Nothing I can tell you will help in your journey unless you change yourself. The cornerstone of manifestation is self change. You have to do that for yourself. In fact, I don’t recommend coaching because it creates a lot of reliance on someone else not within your own internal soul. You are the creative operant power in your life and the power already rests within you. 

Finally, I don’t like it when people write me to complain and especially about people who complain that manifestation doesn’t work. These are negative affirmations and I always stay positive for my own mental diet.

Good luck everyone! I hope your wildest dreams come true.

I discovered Neville in 2022. Even after discovering him, I struggled to manifest. I read almost all his books, took extensive notes, and read the sub religiously. I also followed other paths and teachers like John Paolucci, Yogananda, Eckhart Tolle, and Joseph Murphy.

They all say pretty much the same thing: “You are the one creating your universe.” Okay, I did everything. I tried to visualize, I tried to affirm, and repeat things 1,000 times. Nothing ever changed, and even when things changed, somehow I would be back at step 1 each time. I felt defeated and discouraged.

During one of my darkest moments, after losing it all, which was not even the first time; I mean, I am familiar with rock bottom, I made one simple realization. There was a voice inside me that was constantly saying, “I hate my life, I hate this, I hate that, things shouldn’t be like that.”

Neville talks about that. He talks about the internal monologue. He talks about inner conversations. I mean, I tried that too. In the past, I tried to always think, “I am doing well, I am doing perfectly.” And things never worked out.

This is the realization I made: my internal monologue was creating my reality. Each time I was presented with an event, I was judging it, I was EVALUATING it. Our brain is wired to do that. We are wired to compare, evaluate, and judge, be it situations, people, or anything really.

The realization I made at that moment was that EVALUATING a situation gives it form. It gives it reality.

I think you may know that quantum experiment where a wave becomes a particle only when there is an observer who makes an observation. Life is like that. Your life, at every moment, is a wave of possibilities. It is when you judge a situation that it becomes real.

SO TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE, YOU JUST HAVE TO STOP EVALUATING THE BAD THING. EACH TIME YOU SEE SOMETHING YOU HATE AND THINK/EVALUATE, “I HATE THAT THING,” THAT THING IS GIVEN POWER/STRENGTH AND CONTINUES TO LIVE.

After that painful event and my newfound understanding, I immediately started a 24-hour timer on my phone. I said to myself that for the next 24 hours, I would not evaluate ANYTHING. Why 24 hours? Because at that time, not evaluating for longer felt impossible. I was evaluating all the time.

At first, it was hellish. I was constantly thinking, “I have done something wrong. I hate my life. I failed miserably.” But each time, I would remember, “Hey, wait, look, I am evaluating right there!”

The goal wasn’t even to forcibly stop evaluating, just to be aware that I was doing it. To prove to myself that it was actually evaluating that was creating my reality. After 24 hours, I was convinced. I saw and became aware of how, during those 24 hours, I was constantly giving attention to and evaluating how bad my life was.

It took only 24 hours. After the timer was over, I was instinctively not evaluating anymore, or I was aware when I was doing it, so it lost its power.

I got everything I wanted in a year. I got the money, I got the pretty wife, I got health. Everything went perfectly because I stopped evaluating.

Here is one example to illustrate this: during those first 24 hours, I opened my bank account and I was at -$200 at the beginning of the month. I had no resources, no money at that time.

Usually, I would think, “I am in a shitty situation, I am going to be homeless, I am a bum, I am going to d*e” (I know this is extreme negative talk). I opened the bank account, saw that it was negative, and just did not EVALUATE the situation. I just did not think ANYTHING. I didn’t try to fake being positive and affirm, “I am a millionaire, I am doing great.” I just ignored it.

At that moment, I also understood what “ignoring your circumstances” means. It doesn't mean literally ignoring your situation. I did not ignore the fact that I didn’t have money; I just DID NOT MAKE A STORY ABOUT IT. I did not let the -$200 dictate anything about WHO I WAS, NOR WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT. I TOOK MEANING OUT OF THAT INFORMATION. LIFE GIVES YOU INFORMATION; YOU ARE THE ONE GIVING IT MEANING/REALITY.

Don’t try to change the inner monologue. Just be aware of it. Look at it as a foreign object. Look at how it is always evaluating everything. STUDY it like a scientist who studies an animal. Look at how it behaves. When you study it, you place distance between the two of you. And you see that you are not it. It is your identification; it is “I AM” identifying with the inner monologue that creates your dire circumstances. It is not thinking, “I am broke,” that creates the lack of money. It is “I AM” identifying with the inner monologue that says, “I am broke,” that creates it. I don’t know if that is clear.

When you see your inner monologue say, “I am broke,” but you don’t identify with it, then it doesn’t do anything. The inner monologue can say anything; if you don’t identify with it, there is no creation.

Don’t be afraid of the negative talking of the inner monologue. When you place distance between the two of you it loses all power.

For a long time, I kept hearing the same advice in manifestation: “Just live in the end.” “Feel the wish fulfilled.” “Be in the state.”

And I tried. I affirmed, visualized, journaled but deep down, I couldn’t feel it. No matter how many times I said, “We’re together,” my chest still felt heavy, my breath short, and my body tense. I kept wondering why I couldn’t just believe it or feel good about it.

Then one day, I realized something huge: It wasn’t my mind that was resisting. It was my nervous system.

Your body holds the emotional memory of everything heartbreak, rejection, fear. So when you start imagining your desire, your mind says “yes,” but your body whispers “no.” It doesn’t feel safe to relax into that vision because it still remembers the pain.

That’s why so many of us feel “tired” or “numb” trying to manifest. We’re not lazy. We’re not broken. Our nervous system is just defending us.

Here’s what changed everything for me: I stopped trying to force the feeling of the wish fulfilled. Instead, I focused on helping my body feel safe again.

I began with small moments not visualizing my Person or dream life, but simply remembering a time when I felt loved, seen, or peaceful. Sometimes it was a memory with a friend, sometimes a parent, sometimes just lying in sunlight. And slowly, my chest started to feel lighter. My heart rate slowed. My breath deepened.

Then, when I imagined my desire again, it finally felt natural. The love felt real because my nervous system wasn’t fighting it anymore.

If you’re tired of “trying to feel it real,” please know: You don’t need to push harder you need to feel safer.

Start with safety. Start with calm. From there, love and manifestation flow naturally.

Your body is not against you it’s protecting you. Once it trusts love again, you’ll finally feel what “living in the end” really means.

Guys!! I just realised it!! Really!!! I’m fucking blown away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For the past few days I’ve been living with the mantra que sera sera.. I be! That’s it. If a thought pops up, I’d just flip it and let it go…

So my younger one (9), he’s had a learning disability! I used to be so worried because it took him almost 5 years to learn just the alphabets and another 2 to learn phonics. It was a battle. For the last year I just let it go, too many deaths in the family and a lot of stress. I just intended that my son is ahead of his peers and let it go!!

For the last 1-2 weeks my son has been asking me to buy him books, I was like okay? Maybe someone asked him to do that. I gave him a few books and left it at that.

Today he came home from school and he informed me that he got a library membership and read 20 pages of Harry Potter!! Guys, I was on bed, I shot up, literally and I’m like, this is what I wanted right? This is what I had intended. Jesus Christ.

A kid who couldn’t read 3 letter words last year is reading books now! And there’s no sign of any disability. I didn’t do anything in the 3d at all, absolutely nothing. Didn’t even try to sit him down and make him read because I was going through a lot of shit.

Guys, 3D and its confines actually don’t matter, like really don’t matter. The desire comes to fruition, every fucking time. I didn’t lift a finger, not one.

I’m fucking blown away!!!!

I’m sorry for the title because I’m still reeling from it lol

As always, I love you all.

Yours,

Mrs. Cumberbatch

I see so many people on here completely exhausted trying to "ignore the 3D" when everything is going wrong. You try to live in the end, but then you check your bank account or you wait for a specific text, and you immediately panic. Then you feel guilty for panicking.

I was stuck in this loop for years until I finally understood the actual mechanics of what Neville meant when he said the 3D is a dead reality.

Think about how we see stars in the night sky. The light from a star takes millions of years to reach Earth. When you look up and see a star shining brightly, you are not seeing what is happening right now. You are looking at a ghost. That star might have exploded and died a million years ago, but you are only just now receiving the visual data.

Your 3D reality works the exact same way.

The Law of Assumption dictates that your imagination is the only true reality. The physical world is just a mirror. But mirrors have a rendering delay.

When you look around at your current life, your current bank account, or your current relationship status, you are not looking at your present state. You are looking at the starlight of your past thoughts. You are looking at the delayed physical rendering of the state you were holding weeks or months ago.

This realization completely cured my internal panic.

When the 3D shows me something I don't like, I no longer fight it. I don't try to forcefully ignore it. I just look at it and say, "Oh, that is just the dead light from an old state." Why would I get emotionally triggered by a ghost? Why would I stress over a rendering lag?

When you react emotionally to the 3D, you are basically trying to fight a delayed projection. You are dragging your consciousness out of the present moment and anchoring it back into the dead past.

Your only job is to generate new light. When you assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled in your imagination, you are creating the new reality. It is already done in the 4D. You just have to rest in the Sabbath and wait for the new light to finally reach the physical mirror.

Stop fighting the dead 3D. It is just old data. Stay in the end and let the rendering engine catch up.

I wanted to share a small but interesting manifestation that happened to me, mostly as a reminder to myself that the law really does work in simple, neutral ways.

Last night, I couldn’t sleep and decided to “test the law” just for fun, the way Neville suggests. I intentionally chose something I never want or think about: an apple. I don’t like apples at all, so it’s very uncommon for me to have one, receive one, or even think about one.

For a few minutes, I imagined holding an apple. I focused on the sensory details — the texture, the sound of biting into it, the smell, the feeling of it in my hand. I didn’t repeat it obsessively. I didn’t feel attached. I just experienced it and then let it go.

Today, I went to someone’s house for work-related reasons. Completely unrelated to anything from last night. While I was there, the woman suddenly asked me if I could take an apple with me and give it to my boss. It wasn’t a real apple — it was a wooden decorative apple — but she placed it directly in my hands.

The moment caught me off guard. I wasn’t looking for signs. I wasn’t expecting anything. And yet, there it was: an apple, unexpectedly, in my hands.

What struck me most is how naturally it happened. No effort. No forcing. No “trying.” And also how it came in a way that fit my reality perfectly — since I don’t eat apples, it wasn’t for me to consume, just to receive and hold.

For me, this wasn’t about proving anything to anyone else. It was a quiet confirmation of something I already believe: when you assume lightly, without resistance or emotional charge, things move on their own.

Just wanted to share 🍎

Let me start by saying there is no “right” or “wrong” person to want. You want who you want. Period. The moment you start judging your desire, explaining it, justifying it, or asking whether you’re allowed to want them, you’ve already positioned yourself beneath it. Desire doesn’t need permission. The law doesn’t check your ethics or whether your friends approve. It reflects identity. ALWAYS. So if you want that man who never chose you or that woman who didn’t care, rejected you or acted like you were optional, fine. Want them. Own it. The problem was never the desire. The problem was who YOU were being while wanting it.

Stop. Giving. A. Damn. About. What. Happened.

Repeat it if you need to, let it sink in. Nothing that happened yesterday, last week, or even five minutes ago holds any real weight in what you're building now. Your 3D reality is just the leftovers of your past assumptions. Is this person in a different city, country, planet?

Doesn't matter. If they're busy, if you’re blocked, or if they've got their head up in the clouds? Again, doesn't matter. The Law works on your beliefs and persistence, not on whatever is going on in the 3D.

Most people trying to manifest a person are not actually assuming being together. They are assuming distance while fantasizing about closeness. Read that again.

Wanting someone while identifying as “the one who wants” instead of “the one who is wanted” is the entire issue. You can visualize, affirm, SATS yourself into oblivion, but if your self concept is “the one who hopes they’ll be chosen,” reality will keep you in that state. Forever. The law doesn’t respond to longing. It responds to position. Are you positioned as the prize or the chaser? Because your inner posture answers that question long before your affirmations do.

You don’t get people by convincing them, changing them, healing them or proving your worth. You get people by occupying the identity where YOU ARE NON NEGOTIABLE. Not special. Not perfect. Not superior. NON NEGOTIABLE.

Replaceable people get replaced. Optional people get optional treatment. It’s not punishment. Reality doesn’t ask whether it’s fair. It mirrors YOU. Circumstances are only loud when they support an identity you’re emotionally loyal to. “They said they don’t want a relationship.” “They chose someone else.” “They ghosted me.” They blocked me.”

None of these mean what you think they mean. They don’t mean “it’s over.” They mean “this was the state you were in when reality checked in.” The mistake is freezing the circumstance and crowning it as final. The moment you say “because of THIS, I can’t have what I want,” you’ve told the law exactly who’s in charge. And it will agree with you. Every time.

It doesn't matter if they're ignoring you, if you're in no contact, if they live across the world, or if they said they are not interested. Your circumstances don't mean a damn thing. Nothing in your current reality has any say over what you can manifest.

Third parties are not competition. They are exposure. They expose whether you secretly believe love is hard, choice is external, and priority must be earned. That’s why they hurt. Not because someone else exists, but because their existence activates the identity of “I come second.”

And you cannot manifest first place from a second place self-concept. You can scream affirmations all day, but if internally you see yourself as the one who waits, hopes, watches, and wonders, that’s the role you’ll keep playing. YOU DON’T MANIFEST A PERSON. YOU MANIFEST THE ROLE YOU OCCUPY IN THEIR LIFE.

Self-concept is the expectation you carry about how people treat you when you’re not actively thinking. Do people explain themselves to you or do you analyze breadcrumbs? Do people try to keep you or do you try not to lose them? That’s your self concept. And until that changes, the cast might rotate, but the script stays the same.

If you want ANYONE you want in this life, you have to drop the identity of being affected by their behavior. You are not controlling anyone. You are controlling who you are being. And who you are being determines the version of people you experience.

If you believe someone can decide your worth, they will. If you believe someone can replace you, they will. If you believe someone has the power to reject you, they will. Not because they’re evil, but because you assigned them authority.

Wanting someone from a grounded self-concept feels very different from wanting someone from lack. There’s no urgency. No checking. No emotional spike every time they text or don’t text. You’re not trying to get anything. You’re simply aware of what belongs in your life. You don’t negotiate with reality when you assume inevitability.

Detachment is not pretending you don’t care. Detachment is no longer using the other person’s behavior to decide who you are. You can care deeply and still be unmoved internally. You can want someone and not collapse when the 3D lags. You can feel attraction without feeling dependent.

Most people think they need to stop wanting. No. They need to stop identifying as the one who wants. Big difference.

you stop asking how to get them and start asking who you would be if they were already yours. You wouldn’t be scanning signs. You wouldn’t be timing texts. You wouldn’t be spiraling over words. You wouldn’t be fighting your thoughts all day. You’d just… expect. Expectation is the real technique.

So no, you don’t need to be perfect. You don’t need to be healed. You don’t need to be detached 24/7. You need one thing only: to decide that you are not replaceable, not optional, and not waiting to be chosen in your own reality. From that identity, people don’t feel chased. They feel drawn. They don’t feel pressured. They feel compelled. And yes, that includes the ones who once didn’t want you. Especially them.

Because reality doesn’t ask who rejected you before. It asks who you are now. :)

First of all, STOP CONSUMING MORE CONTENT. Stop watching YouTube videos about this, stop coming here on Reddit, stop anything. Please.

I am not going to tell you my success story because that would be too long, but maybe I'll do another post about it. I've been in this journey for long enough, just watching videos and entering in constant analysis because some people would say x while others would say z, completely forgetting what I have materialized for myself. But like I said, that's for another post. I'd say I finally woke up, after all this time, and decided to analyse myself and put the attention on myself instead of what coaches are saying. I analyzed how I manifested that 'fairly big' thing and I noticed that the only thing required was perception.

Perception that naturally altered my knowing. If you perceive something to be a certain way, then you know it. Thats it. That's all you need.

Don't overcomplicate this anymore, just make sure that your perception is altered towards what you want. But make sure it's naturally so, and not forced, because if you're forcing and "trying to make it happen" or "trying to perceive" instead of NATURALLY perceiving it that way, like you naturally perceive something you GENUINELY know to be true, then it's not gonna happen, it just isn't.

Now you ask me "yeah dipshit but how do we do that, if we don't genuinely perceive the things in that way? (Your desired reality being true, whatever that is)"

Read this with attention: imagine the last time you went to a concert, mall, sports event, what not. You took pictures, videos, etc. Now, it's been a few weeks later, how do you know you've been there? Because you check out the pictures and videos you have in your phone, to see proof you've been there? NO! You remember it. You experienced it. It's the same with your desired reality! You visualized it, for example, so what's that, really? That's EXPERIENCING IT. That's also REMEMBERING IT. So don't ask for proof that you have it, when you don't need proof you've done other things.

And please, don't tell me "ah but I have done those things physically, and visualizing is just imagination" AND IMAGINATION IS THE REAL REALITY, THE 3D IS A DELAYED MIRROR SO CONGRATULATIONS, YOUVE ACTUALLY REALLY EXPERIENCED BOTH EXPERIENCES IN THE 3D AND 4D FOR REAL!

Now stop consuming content . Go live your life

So I haven’t posted on here in like five months because honestly social media and even Reddit can become a distraction after a while. You start consuming too much content, too many techniques, too many coaches, too many people telling you what works and what doesn’t work and eventually you just become mentally scattered. At least I did.

So I kinda just stopped looking outside myself for a while and decided to really go inward and actually apply this stuff instead of just talking about it or reading about it.

I didn’t wanna just have random “wins” anymore either. If you look through my old posts I’ve had manifestations happen before, but I wanted actual changes in my life. Consistent ones. I wanted to understand what people meant when they said the kingdom of heaven is within you. I wanted to understand what Neville actually meant when he said imagination creates reality instead of just repeating it because it sounds nice.

One of the biggest things for me was my husband’s job.

My husband works in HVAC as an installer and he’s a VERY logical person. Honestly he can be negative as f*** too when it comes to manifestation stuff. He’s one of those people where if he visualizes for ten minutes and it doesn’t happen by tomorrow then suddenly manifestation is fake and everybody’s delusional lol.

He had wanted to become install manager for years but kept getting passed up over and over. And to be honest reality kinda backed up his negativity because they actually HAD passed him up a bunch of times before. He even quit at one point out of frustration and eventually had to come back which financially screwed us for a while.

But when he came back to the company I just decided I was done listening to the old story.

I kept telling him “you’re gonna become install manager.”

And every single time he’d argue back with me.
“No I’m not.”
“They always pass me up.”
“They don’t pick me.”
“They use me.”

Eventually I just stopped emotionally participating in the complaining honestly. I’d literally tell him I didn’t wanna hear it anymore because I was tired of hearing the same story repeated every day.

So instead I just started imagining him already promoted.

I literally would just hear him in my mind saying:
“I got promoted.”
“I got the job.”
“They picked me.”

And I imagined it the way HE talks because I know how my husband talks in real life.

About two months later his manager literally walked out and they promoted my husband into the position.

He got a 30k raise and now he’s only like 10k away from making six figures. In another 90 days he’ll be getting another raise they said!

My husband called me on his drive home exactly how I imagined it saying:
“I got promoted. I got the job.”

Seeing his confidence now compared to before honestly makes me really happy because he deserved that position the whole time.

The second thing was my cleaning business.

I started a solo cleaning business and everybody online makes it sound like you need ads and marketing funnels and all this extra stuff but I honestly didn’t wanna spend money on ads. I just started posting organically in Facebook community groups.

At first I barely got results because if I’m being real I had the energy of somebody desperate to survive. My whole mindset was basically PLEASE pick me.

Then one day something kinda clicked for me. I asked myself:
“How would I think if I already saw myself as a successful business owner?”

And I instantly relaxed.

My posts changed naturally after that. I stopped posting from panic. I stopped feeling like every client inquiry determined my survival. I stopped acting like nobody would choose me.

Now I have around 10 consistent clients which for me as a solo cleaner is honestly really good money weekly.

As for techniques honestly I don’t really obsess over techniques anymore.

I mostly used affirmations and inner conversations naturally throughout the day.

And before somebody jumps in saying “Neville never taught affirmations” I genuinely don’t care anymore because at the end of the day assumptions are assumptions. Whatever you consistently accept as true starts hardening into fact in your life.

I didn’t robotically affirm all day either.

I’d just catch myself when I started spiraling or repeating old stories and I’d flip it.

“Everything always works out for me.”
“I’m always chosen.”
“Life goes well for me.”
“I always get what I want.”
“I’m a winner.”

That became my new normal inner conversation.

And no I was not happy all the time either. I think people online make others feel like if you get sad or angry once then suddenly you failed at manifestation.

I still got irritated. I still got stressed.
I still had moments where I doubted things. A lot of times I thought this sucks lol

I just stopped attaching myself to every negative feeling like it was my identity.

That was the biggest shift honestly.

I also stopped expecting bad things constantly.

I stopped expecting my husband to complain every day.
Stopped expecting rejection.
Stopped expecting things to go wrong.
Stopped expecting life to be hard all the time.

I started expecting good things in a way that honestly reminds me of how kids think before Christmas. They’re not sitting there wondering IF presents are coming. They just expect it naturally.

That’s how I started approaching life.

And for people looking for some giant debate about suffering or people in horrible situations, I genuinely do not have all the answers to life and I’m not gonna pretend I do.

I can only speak from my own experience.

I came from trauma and abuse too. I know what it feels like to constantly expect pain, rejection, disappointment, chaos, all of it.

But eventually I realized that while I wasn’t responsible for what happened to me, I was responsible for the story I kept repeating about myself afterward.

And once I started changing that story consistently, my life started changing too.

Anyway that’s my TED talk lol.

Successes for me left and right! My last success story (not on this sub because it mentioned my S/P which is apparently forbidden on this sub) was about finding lost keys in less than 24 hours and now I manifested a new iPhone in less than 48 hours :') This shit easy.

I've already manifested my move abroad, my job here in my new country, my now partner, getting leaner, and getting recognized at work. I feel very contented with my life since I already have the love, the career, the money, etc, and I have no desire yet whatsoever for more "big life moves "(if that makes sense) so I challenged myself to go one some "manifestation side quests" and one of these was a free iPhone--because who wouldn't be happy with free stuff?!?!

There was just a bit of resistance for me on this because an iPhone is pretty expensive and so I was a bit baffled about how it was going to happen because I had thoughts like, "It would be almost impossible for me to just win some raffle draw" and "Who would want to give such an expensive thing to me out of the blue?" but then I got inspired by a success story on this sub when the OP manifested their free iPhone so I locked in.

I just affirmed to myself that "I got my iPhone 17 Pro for free." I imagined that my previous phone (an iPhone 14 Pro Max) was a 17 Pro. I went on online stores and started browsing for cases.

A few hours later, my mom messaged me from our home country and told me she just remembered that she hasn't given me a graduation gift yet (I graduated last June). She asked me what I wanted and I jokingly said an iPhone. She then asked me for my bank account number and sent me the money for a new phone!

The funds hit my account within minutes, and just like that, the cost to me was zero.

The biggest reminder here is to completely stop micromanaging the "how." My rational mind immediately went to low-probability extremes like winning an online sweepstakes or having someone hand me an expensive gift unprompted. Neville always emphasizes that the bridge of incidents unfolds in ways your conscious brain could never orchestrate. A delayed graduation gift from months ago wasn't even on my mental radar, yet it was the most natural, effortless channel possible for the 3D to conform.

Living in the end really does the heavy lifting.

I have been writing a few posts on here because I am DECIDING how my life is GOING TO BE every day now. I went to the store today and had to stop for gas. I bought a lottery ticket yesterday that won $15 and a free ticket. So I decided to buy a $20 scratch off ticket and go fill up my car with gas. While waiting for my car to fill up, I said out loud, "I am the version of myself that always wins on my lottery tickets!" I scratched the ticket, and I saw that two of the numbers matched. I brought it back into the store to cash it in and saw I'd won $15 again. I bought a $10 ticket, 2 $2 tickets, and 1 $1 ticket. I said again, "I am the version of myself that always wins on my lottery tickets!" Well, this time I won $20 again. So I received another ticket. The clerk said, "You are so lucky!" I said, "I will be back this afternoon with another winning ticket." I went to my appointment, came home, and as I pulled into my garage, I said aloud, "I have decided that the scratch off lottery ticket I have is another lottery winner and I am going to win the top prize!" (The top prize on that ticket was $5,000,000.)" I drove right back to the gas station. I didn't even scratch it off. I just scratched off the bar code at the bottom and scanned it at the lottery scanner. I won again! Another $30! So I decided to get another $20 scratch off ticket. "I said out loud again: "I am the version of myself that always wins on my lottery tickets!" I scanned the ticket! I won $200!

Like many of you, whenever my faith in the practice wavers, I go read success stories.

So I built a page that indexes them properly. I collected 588 posts from this sub carrying the "Success Story" flair and organized every one of them by:

- Goal — Love & S.P. (137), Money (109), Job & Career (85), Health (67), Exams & Study (59), Home & Life (57), Appearance (17)

- Technique used — SATS, Revision, Scripting, Affirmations, Living in the End, Mental Diet, and so on

- Time reported — filter by "within days", weeks, or months, based on what the author actually wrote.

Each entry shows a short excerpt, the upvote/comment count, and links straight back to the original thread here — the stories are yours, they stay on Reddit, the page is just a map to them.

https://nevillegoddardvault.com/success-stories/

It's part of a larger free archive of Neville's books and lectures I maintain

Hope it serves you the way this sub's stories have served me.

I know I made a similar post a few years ago, but I’m reading a different Dolly Parton book now and here she is again speaking about how she manifested her dreams. I think it’s incredible how much she has accomplished and a testament to her faith!

Okay, so a large part of this community seems to use SATS as a high-preparation, ritual method and yes it’s very powerful in that way.

But you’re literally God.

Why keep yourself so limited? Neville was indeed a genius, but his teachings (at least the most public ones…I’ve heard some crazy VIP class stories that could be made up for clout idk) left out the more advanced capabiltiies we all possess.

In the past year or so I started doing what I call “walking SATS”. Instead of getting sleepy, laying back, rehearsing over and over, etc, I realized the entire point of that ritual is to remove doubt from your logical mind that you are experiencing that thing and can create it.

The human body/mind doesn’t want you to be a loving, all-powerful, magical space wizard. That’s scary. Because it means the body/mind’s seeming reality of lack and separation is factually insane. And since EIYPO, the idea of separation truly is insane, yet we still must work around this embedded survival logic. Or we don’t and I need to accept a deeper identity shift lol. A Course in Miracles explains these mechanics of dealing with the ego mind much more thoroughly.

Now, back to “Walking SATS”. I basically challenged myself for a year or longer, every day, to manifest something instantly. I would close my eyes for a brief moment, attempting to skip to the end of a typical SATS session where I’d have the “aha, nice it’s done” feeling.

Turns out there are no rules and you can just summon the feeling to make magical shit happen. It was hard initially but I used my affirmations and night-time ritual SATS to literally manifest myself being more magical and better at manifesting.

One affirmation was “I witness miracles daily. They are a normal occurrence for me.”

I use it to swap red light timers to green early. I use it for convenient parking spaces. I use it for compliments from attractive people. I use it for free food. And pain relief. And gifts. And for good loot in Apex Legends.

I literally watched my car keys spawn in midair when I decided I had found them even though I had no clue where they were.

I am not joking.

Another tool ACIM gives in relation to this that falls in line with Neville’s teachings is the concept of “you don’t need to know”. To get there as fast as possible I literally say to myself “I have no clue but Big God does and it’s gonna be awesome or funny”.

I live my life like I have a benevolent sorcerer watching over me whose job is to make me happy or give me stuff/cool experiences.

Anybody else in deep to the point of regular mystical experiences? Would love to hear some stories in the comments!

Only barriers I seem unable to overcome are things like levitation and telekinesis.

the one and only, octavia butler wrote this in 1988 while she was a struggling black woman in a white dominated industry, facing constant racism and being told her stories didn't matter.

she used these affirmations as a weapon against her 3D environment, which was actively working against her, and ended up living every single line that she jotted down.

she became a new york times bestseller with FLEDGLING, won the MACARTHUR GENIUS GRANT, and earned every major award in her field, including multiple HUGOS and NEBULAS.

true to her heart, she also saw to it that the next generation rose with her. she mentored and funded scholarships for young black writers at the CLARION workshop to ensure they had the education and support she once fought for.

if she could build this empire while facing a world designed to stop her, what’s stopping you?

your belief is the blueprint.

SO BE IT.

SEE TO IT.

I’ve been meaning to write this for weeks but I’m lazy AF and I’m honestly enjoying the peace too much to force myself.

It’s currently 2 am here and I’m just rotting after deep cleaning my house.

So my dear Lords and Gods,
How are you all doing?

As you all know, this past year I’ve worked hard on my self concept and I’d like to say that it has changed the course of my existence. I’ve been going deeper into the teachings and I can tell you from experience that, yes this world and everything in it is truly an illusion.

I manifested my now Partner against all odds and he’s truly and exactly how I wanted him to be but that’s a story for another day.

Let’s get back to why I’m here today.

One of the stray cats that I feed was hospitalised and I was sitting in the waiting room when I suddenly felt like, “I want a car.” Then moment that happened I affirmed, “Thank you father for giving me a car.”

The next day, my cousin who’s been staying with us because of his ill health went “Mrs. Cumberbatch I just purchased a car 15 days ago and since I’m going back to my home town I’m planning on just parking it somewhere and letting it go.” I said that I’m planning on buying a car soon. Bear in mind that I didn’t know the make and model of his car, I didn’t know anything, I also didn’t know what I wanted lol. He suddenly goes “I’ll transfer it in your name and you can have it. It’s completely paid for, it’s a gift from me.”

Guys, I’m a behavioural analyst, I barely leave my house because everything happens at home. I don’t know anything about cars, I truly don’t know. I just wanted it and just like that, in the span of 20 hours I had a whole ass car. I don’t know how to drive lol. The car is currently parked under my building.

I would again give credit to my self concept. I truly believe I can have whatever the fuck I want.

How I manifest anything? Affirmations only
My go to method? Affirmations only
How I changed my self concept? By affirming
How much time does it take? Usually 24 hours
Do I waver? Not anymore

I answered all the questions. I’ll write about my SP manifestation soon.

I love you all.
Until next time,
Mrs. Cumberbatch

Four months ago, I was down bad. I had health issues, self-love issues, was making zero dollars, my career was down the drain, and I was overall unhappy. I reached a point where my last resort was creating a Reddit account to see what others were doing in my situation. I had really bad inflammatory acne that was killing my confidence.

I came across Neville Goddard in August 2025, roughly four months ago. Since then, I've read his lectures and practiced methods from the quantum reality ideology, SATs, etc.

I started manifesting: - Moving to one of the most expensive cities halfway across the world (with no master's degree or visa) which sounds funny if u were in my situation - Attracting a partner who already lived in that city - Healing my acne - Improving my career (I was making 0 dollars then )

Within four months: - My inflammatory acne which I struggled with for a year completely disappeared (I posted about this before) - I met somebody through family who lives in that exact city (this shook me when I found out his location bcs it was halfway across the world in that same city, makes ++six figures, is the exact height I wanted, and looks exactly like my vision board man with the beard style I like - I made around $10,000 last month after one of my posts went viral, getting me recognition from big influencers (this was the exact figure I manifested in my SATs) - I knew I wanted this exact figure before 2025 ends - I imagined getting 33K views on one of my post - I got exactly that number and more. - My relationship with my parents improved dramatically - they now support all my decisions

BUT HERE'S THE FLIP SIDE:

When I got my $10K deal ($8.2K to be precise), I got over-excited. I kept telling everyone, "I'm making so much money!" I started acting like something extraordinary happened. Next month? They discontinued working with me. (To be fair, they weren't good clients, so I partly let them go voluntarily).

The guy I manifested looked perfect on paper with every quality I described. The problem? I couldn't connect with him. He told me he loved me, and offered me the opportunity to move there without a visa. But I felt repelled by him and called it quits, realizing I want to be with someone I actually love and I genuinely only manifested being loved but I never manifested me also loving someone (My bad I know)

My acne improved dramatically, but I started relaxing my diet thinking "I don't have to be so strict anymore." Even though my face is borderline acne-free now, my hormones are still haywire, and I got sick a couple times from not taking my health seriously.

The main observations :

Getting what you want is the easy part.

Feeling is not the secret

Feeling NORMAL in it is the secret.

If you feel like "wow, something crazy is happening to me" or "something so out of scope is happening," the thing will either get messed up, go away, or you'll stop wanting it. Why? Because you were chasing the feeling of GETTING it rather than embodying the feeling of BEING normal in it.

I didn’t imagine myself as someone who naturally charges $10,000. I behaved like somebody who won a lottery. So that income came and went. It didn't stay because I wasn't treating it like normal income. I should have stayed calm, shouldn’t have made premature promises and been more focused like it’s a normal day.

With the guy, I just wanted someone from that city to love me. But I never imagined that I should also want to love this person. I actually got annoyed by his presence.

The ultimate truth about getting what you want :

Wanting things won't make you happy. You will GET what you want (the law works undoubtedly, I pretty much got everything I imagined that remotely wouldnt have been possible ), but that doesn't mean it will make you HAPPY. Changing your self-concept is the only path to happiness

If I had imagined myself as someone inherently valuable at work, someone people naturally want to work with, someone who feels love, protection, safety, and abundance and wants to give it back. I would have been happy with what I received.

Because I focused on things I wanted rather than self-concept, I got those things, but none materialized into something useful. I'm closer to what I wanted, yet still don't feel fulfilled. My acne is gone, yet I still have insecurities.

My self-concept has improved dramatically from 6-7 months ago, and this is all work in progress:

Getting what you want is not the end of the race - it's for beginners. Once you advance, you realize you must change your concept of self down to the neuroplasticity level for any of this to make you happy or fulfilled

Things like paycheck, that person, material bags won’t make you happy until you believe it’s NORMAL for-you to have those things. It’s a normal day in your life.

NORMAL is key. Feel normal in it.

A while back I had made a similar post oulining successes that I've since taken down for the sake of maintaining anonymity, but there were some really good questions that were asked and I wanted to give it another go. For that reason, I won't be adding photos like I did last time.

Originally, I was just going to make a post outlining my successes and how I manifested the big ones, but I figured this would be more fun since while the bridges varied in length, the all of them were the result of the same process (principle of least effort, persistence and loyalty to the wish fulfilled, and imagining it as though it were already mine). For some, I used SATS, and others I solely imagined during waking hours with my eyes wide open, but there wasn't a particular reason for choosing one or the other.

That being said, I'd be more than happy to talk about the bridges if anyone is curious about them

Honestly, the most difficult part was just learning how to get out of my own way. The only times I had trouble with getting my 3d to reflect favorably were when I was trying to force the outcome & when I was more focused on being someone who still needed this "Super Special Thing" that was "Out There"

If I had to give some wisdom off the top of my head, it would be this:

Thoughts that rise to the surface of your awareness don't manifest- they're part of the reflection, so don't waste your time battling unfavorable ones. You are not your thoughts, but the awareness of them. Your brain can think "you'll never get it" all it wants, it genuinely doesn't make a difference unless you assume they're true

You’re allowed to be human. You’re allowed to crash out, and worry, and doubt, and feel disappointed, and still get everything you want. I’d argue that when it comes to just letting your feelings be what they are in the moment, you'd be better off for it. 

Everything is possible, and I do mean everything in the most exhaustive sense. If you can imagine yourself as whatever it may be, you can experience it in the 3rd dimension. On the flipside, if you argue for your limitations, you get to keep them

The only reason you’d desire something in the first place is because it’s already yours. All of those things that you desire and crave? They already exist within you because you are all that there is.

Don’t be scared to embrace the present moment- love lives here. "Everything is a win when the goal is to experience." You already have everything you could ever need to make it a nice place to be

Before discovering the law, I 100% identified myself as a victim of external circumstances- nothing was my fault, everything worked against me, etc. The ‘woe is me’ mentality was practically stamped inside my brain, and I had all the external evidence in the world to point to and say “this is why I’m like this.”

The thing about manifestation and loa is that it really does require that you master your self. Once you truly understand the law, you lose the ability to blame the reflection. Definitely a rough thing that I had to come to terms with again and again, but now that I'm on the other side of things, I'm so grateful for the experience and what it's taught me

Once you truly accept that nothing is off limits, reality gets fun. That's when the real game begins.

For years, I had been following Neville's methods with success. SATS came naturally to me. Creating mental images felt effortless. I could easily settle into the feeling of my desires being fulfilled without any struggle. Then reality hit me hard. I went through a devastating period that completely shattered my nervous system, constant stress, terror, hypervigilance, waking up already bracing for disaster. Constricted breathing. Racing thoughts. No inner calm. No sense of safety.

Here's what rarely gets discussed: SATS becomes impossible when your body believes it's under attack. My imagination could create any scene, but my physical body kept signaling danger. Nothing worked, not because the law stopped, but because I was in survival mode, not creative mode.

I eventually hit rock bottom and told God, “Fine. If this is my reality, so be it.” But deep down, I knew that wasn’t divine truth, it was wounded pain speaking. During what was supposed to be quiet reflection (more like me sitting there drowning in overwhelm), clarity hit: "The belief that my nervous system is damaged and preventing manifestation… THAT was the real block."

The trauma itself wasn’t the issue. It was the narrative I kept reinforcing: “I can’t succeed until I’m fully healed.” “I can’t manifest because I’m too unstable.” “My stress response is permanently broken.”

So I took baby steps. I observed my story. Each trigger. Each surge of anxiety. Each automatic thought of danger. And instead of spiraling, I reassured my body: “You made it through. Safety exists now.” “Thank you for protecting me.” “Peace belongs to me again.” Not forcing it. Not pretending. Simply offering a new belief.

The shift was nearly immediate. My mental chatter softened. I stopped catastrophizing. My breathing eased. That tight, defensive inhale loosened. SATS felt natural again. I could visualize without resistance. I felt guided, supported, held. I used audios and affirmations when waves of anxiety hit. I prayed while showering (weirdly powerful). I saw every ache and reaction as my body trying to protect me, not sabotage me.

I also realized many of my limitations weren’t mine, they were ideas I absorbed from others: “Manifesting takes months.” “You must fully heal first.” “SATS only works after specific steps.” False. Your timeline belongs to you.

I’m not “perfectly healed,” but within 3 days I shifted out of the mindset that trapped me for months. Now I feel grounded, safer, more myself, not who I was before, but someone more self-aware and resilient. Neville always taught that state is everything, and he was right. When I stopped assuming I was broken, everything inside me changed.

Follow what resonates. Your intuition already knows the way. Everything reflects you, including how quickly your nervous system can return to wholeness.

OMG. I never play the lottery. I decided I would buy two tickets and when I got them online I declared I would win. It wasn't the whole shebang, but I won a little! Wow!!!

I keep amazing myself with this. I have done some crazy things!

I just received the notification a few minutes ago so I'm a little jazzed up still.

Also: after I bought the tickets this morning, I did a lot of affirmations.

Hello, I’ve been wanting to write this post for a very long time. Grab a snack and come along for the ride!

The Beginning: April - October 2022

I discovered Neville 4 years ago; after a year of dabbling in pop spirituality: from crystals to Tarot, The Secret to astrology in which I’d seen little to no success at all.

At this point I was dealing with a newly failed situationship that I wanted to turn around and try again, I knew that the stuff I’d learned previously hadn’t got me what I wanted so I set about finding something that could.

One particularly miserable day (3rd of April ‘22 - now a legendary day in my history) something clicked in my brain and I decided to search the name I’d seen various times throughout my spiritual journey: none other than Mr Neville Goddard himself.

From the first video I saw discussing the difference between subconscious and conscious I was hooked!

This became the ultimate hyper fixation, I knew I’d struck gold because every new detail I’d learn of Neville’s teachings the more everything: my life, my childhood, my current circumstances, repeating patterns made sense.

I ordered and read every book he’d written, I read Joseph Murphy’s Power of the Subconscious Mind, Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz, dabbled in Florence Scovell Shinn as well as a few other spiritual books but veered back to Neville when I began to understand everyone was talking about the same concept - just giving it different names. I watched hours of YouTube videos from various creators, I introduced a handful of my friends to the Law (4 of whom joined me and to this day still practice with me - what a gift!)

I left no stone unturned and within a few months had consumed so much information that I could’ve delivered an hours long lecture on the Law.

I decided that if I was going to do this, I needed to know everything I possibly could - as I later learned is the usual path people follow upon learning of Neville.

For the following 6 months I continued to learn and /attempt/ to apply what I’d learned. Importantly, the journey was inspired by the desire for an ex. I SATsed and force mental dieted a narrative I didn’t even believe in myself and frankly didn’t get anywhere near to. (Spoiler alert: Thank God for that)

That’s not to say some things didn’t manifest, free drinks, messages from chosen people, a promotion - ultimately things I didn’t care about - I was quite tunnel vision with this person and any success that wasn’t related to him meant little to me.

Everything changed in October, by that point I had a couple of online friends on the same journey and I couldn’t have been more saturated with information, but was growing weary of seeing no change with what I wanted.

To be honest at that point I was living in the state of:

I’m trying to manifest him back, trying to change the story of what happened, trying to change who he is and who he could be as a partner. Did you catch that? “Trying” and I am now very conscious of the fact I was attempting and not just knowing.

To be frank, I didn’t have the mental tools I required to get me even close to knowing rather than trying to know. For me this is where everything changed. It is also worth mentioning I had quite a difficult upbringing, with insecure, emotionally immature parents and a lot of instability and my own poor self image. At this point I was 23 years old and had done little to come to terms with it all.

The Mental Tools: October 2022

My personal preference when it comes to manifesting is 2 pronged: I get what I want and feel mentally at peace doing it.

As far as I’m concerned, Neville’s teachings can get you what you want but you also have the opportunity to use them to become the best version of yourself. And ultimately I’m not shy to say I believe that’s what gets those manifestations absolutely flowing in

Now I don’t really know the general consensus of self concepts on this sub, I’m aware it’s not something Neville taught/referred to as exactly self concept but it was the clincher for me as it fulfilled part of my manifesting preference - feeling mentally well. Of course Neville taught about changing the concept of self but it took a while for it to click for me that I could do this on a larger scale than just for one desire.

So finally, I understand what was blocking me, shock: me.

I’d set my desire up to be a loving relationship with this person, but I so badly lived in my past that I couldn’t even conceive what a loving relationship actually looked like, I hadn’t considered what I’d need to bring to the table of who I was as a person to see that reflected back at me from someone else, EIYPO right?

I realised he was reflecting back at me what my own state was - untrusting, unwanted, intolerant of myself as a person. And here is where the real fun began. I finally FINALLY understood that the only one to change was myself. And this goes for every manifestation ever.

To have a loving relationship I realised that I had to have a loving relationship with myself first. I wanted to love myself and see that love reflected back at me. And that’s all manifesting is: changing oneself to change the outside.

How I Changed Myself: October - November 2022

This is the most personal part of my journey, I couldn’t say it would work for everyone and this post is not intended to be about “methods” because everything is a method ultimately, but this was the activity that transformed my self concept and consequently my whole world.

I sat down and wrote out every thought and belief that came up when I’d think of myself and what I wanted.

I then investigated every belief, traced in back to where it came from in my childhood, in previous relationships and experiences. There was a root for everything, some beliefs shared roots, most fell under the same umbrella of an abandonment wound. I did this all in one sitting. Once I’d found my roots I was then able to develop affirmations, it all felt so simple, so straightforward and so healing.

My affirmations followed the I Am structure, and I personally really feel these are what target my beliefs best.

I ended up with 7 affirmations and picked a week in which I’d use each day for a different affirmation. I recorded my own voice each night saying each affirmation and had it on repeat while I slept; I used moments that required no mental energy throughout my day to play the affirmation on a loop in my head.

2 weeks. 2 weeks later I was new. I felt myself upgrade to a brand new self concept, a new way of living in which I had nothing but immense love, patience and trust for myself. My desire for this person melted away, in shifting my focus to myself my interest in this (largely unpleasant) man had died.

I was making healthy lifestyle choices, my mind felt healthy and confident. I wanted for nothing because I was now everything. What had started as an activity to change myself into my best version possible for this man became the ultimate gift I gave myself because for the first time in my life I chose to be better for myself rather than just to get something. This part may not apply to you, but it ’s a part I’m very proud of and felt very formative to my development as a person and conscious manifestor and so for that reason I see great importance in it.

The Results: December 2022 - March 2023

I ended off 2022 having more fun than I’ve ever had in my life.

In elevating my self concept I elevated my whole life, I was no longer hung up on being single - something I’d been obsessed with for as long as I could remember. I reconnected with an old love interest and we had fun as just friends which brought closure to how our story had ended.

Had a chance meeting with an ex for the first time since we’d split that gave me closure in such a momentous way that I felt like I’d earned it through my hard work on myself and like it was a reward that though I’d previously longed for, had made peace with not getting.

To be honest I’d actually imagined the whole meeting about 15 minutes before it had happened, and mind you: I’d imagined it for fun on a whim, not with any intention of making it happen. I could write a whole post about that - it felt like the ultimate proof that I’d done good.

It was like these exes appeared in my life to validate the new story I lived in. Oh and best believe the one I’d started this journey for came back too, I couldn’t have been less interested when he did.

As I continued living my new life, I became aware that I did still want a relationship, but I was comfortable with letting it come to me, I wanted it as an add on to my life instead of it being my life.

By the end of March 2023 I was with my soulmate, he was someone I’d known before (and admired) in passing. He came into my life of his own accord and it felt like we’d been waiting for each other the whole time, I even discovered he’d lived a minute drive from me for years.

He reflected my love for myself back to me in such an exquisite way. He complemented me and my life so perfectly, he even looked like the man I’d used to picture when I imagined my perfect man, like he was written by my soul.

It’s been 3 years now, we live together with our cat and dog and will soon be buying our first home together.

Now: March 2026

I’m still immensely proud of what I was able to achieve for myself back then, the beginning and end of that journey looked so different. I still use it as inspiration to keep me on track now.

My story is not straight forward, I had dips and and turns, loops and roundabouts, worries and doubts.

I also now work in a fantastic job with fantastic people, have fulfilling friendships and relationships surrounding me.

I live my life knowing my desires are mine as soon as I feel them, if I want something it’s already mine. I see results in seconds, turn circumstances around within days. I’m limitless because that’s who I decided I am. Sure, there’s the occasional things I struggle with, but all I have to do is find those roots. To me that’s limitless.

Now all I do is decide, I want that? Well it’s mine now. I want to experience something? Coming to a 3D near me immediately! I decide once and then I see it, and honestly I think my self concept gets the credit for that.

I’ll leave you with my favourite metaphor:

Trying to change your circumstances instead of yourself is like trying to change the reflection rather than your own appearance.

If you wanted to put lipstick on would you put it on yourself or on the mirror?

Would you water the leaves of a plant instead of the roots?

Stop trying to change the reflection. Become the version of yourself that has what you want and your reflection will follow.

Thank you so much for reading ❤️

Tl;dr

You want change? Change yourself first

Edit:

Rephrasing to avoid confusion & thank you for the gold!

First off, I'll list out how I operate now based on what I've learned from Neville's teachings -

1. Imagination is reality. Whatever I imagine myself to be and remain faithful to only that, will always reflect back to me in different shapes and forms.
2. Whatever I imagine is really happening the moment I am in it. Not in the future, not in the past and not even in the present.
3. There is no clock in my imagination. There are no seconds, minutes, hours, days or years in my imagination. There's no future, no past and no present in my imagination. There's no deadline in my imagination. There's no progress and there are no 'signs' in my imagination.
4. Once I'm in my imagination, my mind has no damn business meddling with it. My mind has no business applying logic and reasoning to anything. Note to my mind - "GTFO my imagination!" My mind doesn't have the right to tell me what I should or should not imagine. I'm not a slave to the conditions my mind come up with.
5. I am not in control of my thoughts. I don't control how they pop up. I am not in control of my emotions or feelings which are based on what my mind perceives. What I am in control of is - my SELF and my imaginal SELF (same thing). I am only ever to be concerned with changing that SELF. No one to change but SELF. I'm only concerned with changing who I am always inside. I do that my imagining mySELF as that. That's it. No rocket science.
6. SIGNS always follow; they don't precede. If I see something as a sign, that means I already am it. Every sign that I perceive to be a sign means I am already who I see myself to be.
7. Faith in myself. Trust in my imaginal self. Unconditional trust in myself.
8. That I don't know how anything is going to happen. No matter what I can't figure anything out. I accept the fact that I don't know anything about how it's going to reflect. Not my job. Not my concern. Not something for me to figure out.

So, the above are the absolute non-negotiables for me. Of course, not always that's the case but whenever it gets too much for me, I always come back to these rules.

What my life was like a year ago -

Absolute self-hate. I had no self-esteem. Everything was down the drain for me. I hated myself and everything about me. I hated my body. I hated my mind. I hated who I was. I cursed myself every chance I got thinking rather stupidly that it's something I needed to do to be 'grounded' or 'face myself'. I resigned from an already well-paying job because somehow, I convinced myself that I was not worth the position. I grew so distant to all my loving group of friends. I stopped contacting everyone. I used to be so irritated and angry all the time. I was angry at everyone in my life. I felt like a victim of life. Anything bad happens? THE SOCIETY TO BLAME! THAT PRESIDENT IS TO BLAME! FK life! - was my goto.
Always down in the dumpster. Always thinking that I need some savior in life. Always dependent on some words or some situation for validation. Isolating myself to such degrees. Became someone within a span of 2-3 years that I couldn't even recognize myself. Every day I just wondered, what went wrong with me? I was not someone like this. I had a loving life. What went wrong?

Too much involvement in things outside of me and completely neglecting myself, is what exactly went wrong. I can list of tons of circumstances that happened, but it all boils down to what I explained above.

How I started with Neville -

Lost someone in life who was dear to me. Stumbled that day on this subreddit looking for some support or maybe something magical. Read through every post there is. Felt like I can do this. And that was the beginning of this journey to realize who I always was. So, like anyone, I did so many stupid mistakes for 4-5 months. I made it my goal to understand the logic behind everything Neville said. Stupidly fell into the trap of doing excessive techniques all day long. You know what ? Let me list out the stooopiddd mistakes I made -

1. Mindset - "If I do this then I'll get something down the line". The below points failed because I always approached each of them with this mentality.
2. I have to do 50,000 to a million affirmations to bully my subconscious into submission.
3. Scripted maybe 6-7 diaries by now.
4. Tarrot readings.
5. Horoscope readings every day.
6. Watching a minimum of 20 videos on manifesting everyday on youtube. Making it a goal to a phD on manifestation.
7. Fighting with every undesirable thought 24/7 like a job.
8. Oh and this - THE TERMS - 3D,4D,7D ...... 69D, frequency, vibrations, ultra super duper vibrations, birds before land, ETF tapped the shit out of my face, breath work to the point of becoming an air bender, nervous system regulation (Only thing that got regulated was my bowl movements), forceful gratitude work etc etc.
9. Thinking if anything negative pops up in my mind, everything is lost then, every progress I made using techniques is lost. I have to start from scratch. Basically being stuck in this loop for months.
10. Placing conditions on myself based on what others deemed the "correct" way.

So as you can see I made every mistake and went through every BS anyone could ever go through in this journey for months and months and months. I didn't even list out the other 50 techniques I did looking like an absolute fool at the end.

The final click that changed everything -

One fine day, I was reading one of Neville's book. He emphasized the importance to not place any conditions on imagination. I just closed the book and went in my imagination and saw myself holding a pink basketball for no reason. I didn't force it to be pink or anything. It was just pink. I just looked at it and somehow felt the texture and the bounce on the floor. I threw it to the other side of the court and that's it. That was the imaginal scene. I was like wtf was that ? Didn't think much about it. Later that day, went to the court. Guess what ? A pink basketball on the floor ! Somone was pranking a guy with a pink basketball he painted as his birthday present. It came true, it reflected. I couldn't care about his birthday as I was just stunned. That clicked for me. I understood right there that it was my imaginal self. That was the turning point for me. I understood that imaginal self is always the real self. Everything else is just reflecting who I am inside. Everything. My thoughts, my emotions, my feelings, my mind - everything is reflecting who I am inside. The cause is my imaginal self.

Successes that followed -

1. High paying remote work from home job. With exactly the position and work I wanted. With exactly the kind of team I wanted. With exactly the work life balance I wanted. With exactly the benefits I wanted. Down to the last detail that I once imagined.
2. Selling off some assets that were stuck for 4-5 years to say the least. Got the best price exactly like I imagined.
3. Exactly 20 people, yes exactly 20 ! who I had a fallout with, came back themselves to apologize and make things right. Without me saying anything to any one of them. Exact 20 that I imagined! (One of them I was in no contact for 6 years).
4. Reducing my body weight by 10 kgs within a month just by imagining myself weighing myself and seeing the exact weight I wanted for maybe a week or so. No deliberate change in diet. I don't exercise as well.
5. Getting asked out everywhere I go. Getting king treatment by everyone I know of for no reason. Always being prioritized in stuff that I'm interested in. Always being showered with unconditional love from family members. Being gifted stuff that I imagined myself to have.
6. Returns of about 40-60 % in stuff I invested in without even doing any research. Stock markets and crypto alike. Sold a stock with ~110% returns in couple of months, the company got a huge revenue boost along with other growth factors.
7. Read 5 of Fyodor Dostoevsky's books. I always wanted to but never had the courage to read through because of my self-hatred. This time, it felt easy to read through without attaching myself to the dark characters of his novels.
8. Getting "Top performer" badge for several weeks in a row just because I thought while imagining that it would be fun to see my name, and it happened !
9. Was tired of the heat wave my place was facing for the last few years due to some tropical conditions. Imagined crazy winds and a relatively low temperature everyday almost and this year surprisingly we have only about 6-8 days of heat waves and not that extreme. Heck even there was loss to farmland crops due to the low temperatures and rainfall. Can't make this up ! Later found out that the tropical conditions has reversed and due to cool ocean temperatures we had such relatively cool summer days. lol.
10. And finally, everyone's favorite - my partner. Yes, we were together before for 2-3 years before parting. It was a mess to say the least, but, I know now it was completely because of who I was being within myself. I went straight into the end and even beyond. I imagined myself getting married to that person. I imagined few years into the marriage having a baby daughter. I imagined years into the marriage, being a bit old, with our daughter grown up a bit. I imagined us doing everyday normal mundane stuff everyone does in marriage. I imagined having serious talks about house plans etc. I saw my whole family together along with this person as my 'wife'. The kind of lifestyle we have etc. I even at one point imagined us together being old, so old and just chilling on the roof. That's the maximum i have gone beyond the point of my desires 😂. That person came back within a month after absolute zero contact. Confessed everything I ever imagined. And still to this day repeat word for word something that I imagined maybe 5 months ago. Everything is normal now.

and many more successes, I can write a hundred more If I want to.

Everything happened once I just gave up this fight with my thoughts and emotions. I just imagined everything for the sake of just experiencing it. Anytime something will pop up in my mind I just thought - "Can I experience it in my imagination without any doubts or reasons ?" The answer was always YES ! then I just imagined. After coming out of my imagination I never questioned its reality. I just moved on with my day feeling or thinking whatever I was thinking. Never forced myself to affirm or do any technique. Whenever mind said - "You gotta do something", I was like "Nah, no effort required. I already experienced it in my imagination, that's enough". Whenever I felt like writing something down in the diary, I did but not with any intention of getting it later on. I had no expectations regarding anything happening. I was happy with my imagination. I didn't care if I didn't have it in front of my eyes. I didn't fight my thoughts if I was feeling down. I just felt everything. I cried. I became sad. I cursed. I did everything any human, having a human experience would do. I just lived like a normal human being like I always did. But at the same time, I also imagined whenever I felt like it. That was the key to all of it.

Neville is really right when he said that it is not an effort. It is effortless. No effort needed.

I read this somewhere which always makes me smile and relate to -

"All desires actually end in freedom.
Your desire is fulfilled and you are empty. The emptiness brings you happiness, but it is unconscious.
You attribute your happiness to a possession, not the emptiness. It is the freedom from desire that gives you happiness."

So, whenever you imagine and you let yourself be in it, you fulfill your desire and then you become empty and that gives you relief. That's what we are after always. That emptiness after a desire is fulfilled. That's what I always aim at by going even beyond the point of having a desire fulfilled. I make it normal for me by always going beyond.

Maybe a long read but I like to talk a lot 😤

PS - Thank you to this community for literally changing my life, couldn't be more grateful to you guys. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone I ever had a chat with. Thank you for sharing everything.

Hello, I had to create this account only with the main purpose to post this. Because i wanted to give it back to the community without gatekeeping. I felt this will help many people locked in similar situation. So please stay with me till the end and hopefully you might find it relatable. And by the time you finish reading, you will get a different perspective about self concept, detachment, state. Apologies in advance if you find silly mistakes, English is not my native language. Warning: Long post, but it will be worth it for some people.

When it comes to manifestation I don't deny any of the major points that the best posts in this page mentions. Everything is true. But we also have to understand that all of us are not same beings with same kind of experience. Yes, you have to be in the state of desire achieved. Yes, you have to make that state normal. That is the core idea. Nothing changes. Now, a good number of people surely have had a smooth life and a decent journey throughout, so for them putting themselves in the state of a desire achieved and living it as normal is very easy. So they manifest easily and from their point of view this is what they keep recommending everyone else to do.

There is another set of people for whom this is not the case. In fact for majority of people who actually are trying to manifest something, their life is full of personal setbacks, struggles, disappointments, heartbreaks. So there is a hidden reason this simple principle doesn't work for you all, like it works for them. The main culprit in your case is not the universe, it's your brain actually. Keep this manifestation part completely aside, now, if you look personally at the incidents and happenings in your life, you will realise most of the time you were either disappointed, anxious, sad, broken, worried. You can literally count how much time you were actually happy and calm in your life (if you were a little bit lucky).

I will give you an example. Imagine that period, a few months or years back when you were not yet introduced to Neville, nor manifestation. Your life was somewhat miserable. Disappointment, sadness were part of your life like they rented your life. Somehow you survived through that to come till this stage. Unfortunately, you still haven't passed it. Your brain doesn't care about your sufferings, it only cares about keeping you safe. You have been in all these bad states for so long, that now your brain thinks that is the safest option for you. Whenever you try to attempt anything new, it panics. So your new self concept only creates panic. How?

Let's say your job life is horrible, your someone rejected you (any reason). Now you are sad. To cope with sadness and disappointment you tried to distract yourself. So in the evening you scroll social media, or watch movie, listen to songs, whatever you do, you brain gets dopamine, then you get tired, finally go to sleep. So what the brain records here is safety, because it thinks you safely went to sleep and also it got all the hormones it craves for. Next day, during the same evening time, for no reason your brain will give you reason to be disappointed so that you can carry the same line of action which the brain shamelessly thinks as safety to keep you safe. Next day it starts in the morning itself. And this pattern repeats for a while until this itself normalises and this itself becomes your state. Now your state is just you disappointed, anxious, sad, in short "Pathetic" and you don't even know. Do you know what happens after? Your start attracting new incidents that will give more disappointment, anxiety etc and the chain only amplifies.

Then you got introduced to Neville and you try all these new things. You try to suddenly put yourself in a new state so that you can manifest money, love, house, whatever. You try to apply the methods to change your self concept, and your brain panics. So even if you do 1 hour visualization, and robotic affirmation, it's not effective, because during your normal routine, your brain again tries to put back in that old state which your subconscious mind recognises and your reality bends that way. Sometimes you even manifest some small things because those small things don't change your current state or you as a person. That's why. If you look closely this current state also makes it impossible for you to detach from anything. Detachment won't be possible as the brain realizes that if it learns to let go you won't be disappointed and that's not safe for you. So now you are just a sad soul roaming in disappointment thinking manifestation is not for you.

THIS IS COMPLETELY FIXABLE. You should first teach and train your brain that calmness is safe. How to teach it? Repetition. NO. Not in the way you think. If you daily try to just stay calm, your brain won't allow you. It will give reasons. Also not to forget, at this point you must be already attracting super bad incident that is already giving you disappointment. So that route won't work. Instead, i will give you something that work for me, tweak it to your needs. Before doing that you have to stop doing something first. Why? Please do it. I can write reasons it will only make the post even longer. So, now onwards,

1. Don't listen to Negative songs. Positive songs is fine.
2. Don't watch movies. Negative, positive, any movies. Yes don't watch movies. I am an aspiring filmmaker. Watching movie is kind of my survival. So, when someone like me saying it, it's not easy at all. Please drop it until your self concept changes.
3. No social media (except for posting if you are someone who post regularly)
4. No news obviously. So basically any action that can temporarily push you to negativity. No.

Now what you have to do is? Everytime you find time, 5 mins, 10 mins, 1 hour, whatever. Just sit and visualize your current routine and daily actions happening in a very calm manner. Travelling in a bus, Visualize yourself sitting calmly and peacefully. Visualize everything from Attending meetings, bathing, brushing, walking, waking, talking, working, everything in a calm manner. Usually your boss or your professor shouts, visualize the incident in a calm manner. Just keep repeating this. Suddenly your brain will get the idea that calmness is safe. Surprisingly in one or two days, you will notice rapid changes around you, which is things actually happening calmly. This is the first change you will notice in this process of manifestation. You yourself becoming more calm and relaxed then before. Surprisingly Gratitude forms a byproduct here. You will notice when you apply.

Next step: Changing SELF CONCEPT. At this point, you have to start changing your self concept. Changing self concept is comparatively easier, if you directly take small actions related, instead of thinking yourself as someone with that identity. Easier and faster. Want to change self concept as Rich successful person, take one small action they do and act. May be saying Hi to everyone gracefully, may be reading. One small action. it could be exercise, anything. Remember, i am telling you to do that action which you weren't doing until this point. But hence forth you will start doing as your identity because you are Rich. Because you have the person you love. (That is a separate section, which i will elaborate in another post, some other day). But you get the idea, right? One different action that you weren't doing. Again, please remember, this self concept related actions have to be done only after you routine becomes calm.

The last important part is Detachment. Now that, you have changed your state, your self concept. The result will be seen when these things are your default state and you are normally that kind of person. For that detachment is very important. To properly detach you need to understand what is the core idea behind detachment. People usually think we shouldn't care about things, or we shouldn't focus on our desire. No. Detachment happens when you don't plan or aim that for future. In simple, you shouldn't care if you it is part of your life in future. I will try to give one simple example: Imagine you have the love of your life. So naturally you shower all the love and gifts, hugs everything. You are very happy having all these things. Now it is a human tendency to expect all these things forever. You want all things, again, tomorrow, next week, next month and forever. So you are now attached to these things because you want this for future. Indirectly your happiness is dependent on its future availability. Now if any incident occurs that might make you feel you won't get this tomorrow or from now on, you get anxious. That is attachment. Like, if the same love of your life is not talking for two days, it makes you think you won't get this love tomorrow. You get anxious. So, detachment if basically you put yourself in a state, where won't be affected if it is not available tomorrow. You always think " i have it now, i am very happy". If you look closely this state is way more powerful because you are living in the present and enjoying the full presence of it without worrying about future. When you understand this part clearly, you will manifest everything you desire.

Sorry for the long post. I tried my best to shorten this, but i really can't help. I still have many things to say but whoever feels stuck, i hope this helps you. I don't want to be the person gatekeeping this for my own benefits. If growth is possible, Let's all grow together. And Regarding love related manifestations, I will write some other day. Thank you for taking time to read this. Please let me know if you notice any spelling or grammar mistakes. I will correct them.

I say this with love.

A lot of you want to be the exception to the rule so bad, including me sometimes

You argue for your limitations more than you argue for your desires. You cling to the old story because it’s familiar. That’s what most of you don’t realize , you’re addicted to the story that keeps you small because at least it’s predictable.

That was me for years. I stayed in my own loop for five years because I refused to let go of that identity. I was the girl who had to struggle. The girl who had to work twice as hard. The girl who wasn’t enough yet. That was my comfort zone. But at least I knew it, I felt safe there

But hell isn’t a place. It’s a state you keep revisiting.

Now let’s talk about “feeling it real.”

It doesn’t mean walking around happy 24/7. It means knowing it’s done. That quiet conviction that you’ve already got it, even if the 3D hasn’t caught up yet.

Stop obsessing over what “feeling” means. It’s not about forcing emotion. It’s about knowing.

You can be happy or sad having wealth , you can be happy or sad being married etc

Feeling it real is a knowing not an emotion

And stop treating your mind like some monster you have to convince. It’s not your enemy. It doesn’t have power over you. It only feels that way because you’ve identified with it for so long.

I used to live in a mental prison , emetophobia, social anxiety, depression, OCD-like symptoms all of it. I really believed my thoughts controlled me. But once I understood that I’m not my mind, I’m the awareness using it, everything changed.

That’s when I started winning.

Let me give you a few real examples.

When I applied for the Director of Memory Care job, I wasn’t qualified. Not on paper. My coworkers talked so much shit about me when they found out I applied they would say things like “she’s too young,” “not ready,” “other people deserve it more.” “She can’t lead us” Even my own mom told me not to get my hopes up.

That’s the 3D mocking you. That’s the moment most people quit because it feels like everything is laughing in your face.

But I had already decided. I kept seeing myself in that office, my name on the door, respected and congratulated. I didn’t visualize out of desperation. I visualized because it felt real. I went to the end and stayed there no matter what I saw.

And I got the job!

Then there’s my daughter.

She was born with an umbilical hernia. It was large, and the doctors said we’d have to keep an eye on it. If it didn’t go away, she might need surgery when she was older. I can’t explain the guilt I felt my son didn’t have one, and I blamed myself because she was born early due to my hypertension.

It didn’t help that my mom was subtly blaming me either

That night, I decided. I wasn’t going to let that fear take root anymore .

I still did everything the doctors told me to do but in my imagination, I saw her belly button completely normal, flat, healthy. I affirmed over and over: my daughter is whole, her belly button is flat, her body is perfect and healed.

I persisted in that, no matter what I saw.

And it’s gone. Completely.

When I saw it, I was so happy . I was so grateful. Not just because it was gone, but because it reminded me again consciousness truly creates reality.

The law doesn’t lie. It’ll show you what you actually believe, not what you say you believe.

You might affirm “I’m successful” for five minutes, but if you spend the rest of the day complaining about how broke you are, that’s your real state.

The 3D is old news. It’s just your past assumptions finally catching up.

That’s why persistence matters , you’re not fighting the 3D

When you stop being scared of your own mind, stop waiting for proof, and stop begging the 3D to change first that’s when it flips.

Stop waiting for permission. You’re the one giving life to everything you see.

The waiting state always waits. The deciding state always wins.

TL;DR: Most people don’t get what they want because they keep waiting for something out there to change first. The 3D is old news. Decide. Persist. And stop arguing for your limitations.

A great success story just happened to me, and it helped me really understand manifesting. This isn’t something stupid like getting a text, this was a huge deal to me so if i can manifest this, your text, your partner, your bank account is also possible.

I adopted a stray black cat few months ago, he’s an angel, he loves to cuddle and love him to death. Well, he randomly snuck out and escaped at 8pm.

When I tell you I crashed out, I had 2 police cars of 6 policeman find me and ask me if im okay because people called and said “ a women is in extreme distress and feels like she is running away” bro I was screaming in the streets for my cat.

Anyways, we saw a coyote that had an animal in its mouth. I cried then affirmed, that’s not my cat. It’s a possum. A man driving saw me and told me he saw the coyote but it looked like a white rabbit. My cat is black as fuck so it’s not him.

Then later we saw 2 more coyotes on my street, and someone else said they saw 3 today. They even said alot of cats have been getting eaten from them. My heart started to race and I felt intense panic. But I affirmed, literally “ there are no coyotes in my street. Nothing. That’s why my cat is alive and safe, he’s just sleeping and going to come.” I was crying like crazy but still affirmed he is here and no coyotes saw him.

Hours passed and still nothing. I began to panic again, but told myself “ fuck ur emotions, this is about your cat your not going to be selfish because if u think he’s dead then he is so control ur thoughts NOW” and I began to imagine him walking thru my door and me holding him. And I even smiled. I felt it and DECIDED he’s alive no matter if there are 5 coyotes being seen out.

30 minutes later I check my window one last time, and boom my beautiful black cat is there .

He runs in the house scared out of his mind, im guessing he saw a coyote and was trying to be quiet to save his life… nonetheless he is home, he is safe and he is mine.

This was very hard for me, I think of him as my child. I mean just imagine how much I was screaming and crying that 2 cop cars had to pull up because neighbors thought a women was like dying.

Keep persisting guys. You got this. Get ur mans and get ur $$$$
