5000 Hours of Studying Neville Goddard's Manifesting Secrets in 31 Minutes
31:03 Share

Five years ago, I had no clue who Neville Goddard was, and back then, I was making less than $1,000 a month.

and I was barely able to pay my living expenses, I was bedridden at that time with severe nerve damage from a surgery during which a cyst was removed from my bladder, and on top of that I was convinced that I was unworthy of love and a loving relationship. And fast forward to today, I'm consistently manifesting more than $20,000 a month, I fully healed my body, and I'm in the most fulfilling relationship I've ever been in.

So how did this happen? It happened because I studied Neville Goddard's teachings and I studied them for more than 5,000 hours and I put each of the 12 principles that I share with you in today's episode into practice.

And what you will have at the end of listening to this episode is the ability to draw any amount of money you want to you by understanding the interplay of the mirror principle, consciousness and the harvest, the skill set to

heal your body and to draw your dream relationship to you by imagining and assuming exactly how Neville Goddard intended us to do it and the magical power to step into the role of a millionaire and draw this exact reality to you. And the first principle has to do with this.

If you want to be able to draw large sums of money to you, just like I did it, you have to accept and surrender to the principle that consciousness is the only reality. Once this fact is accepted, you have to ask yourself: What defines an abundant state of consciousness?

Consciousness is awareness and an abundant state of consciousness is a state in which you are aware of the beliefs, thoughts and emotions that are in alignment with abundance. And that's why if you want to become truly abundant, you must consciously work on being conscious of that which you want to draw to you and not the opposite state, because in your faith is your fortune, Neville Goddard said.

You cannot serve two masters or opposing states of consciousness at the same time. Taking your attention from one state and placing it upon the other, you die to the one from which you have taken it and you live and express the one with which you are united.

So the only way for me to change my income and the number on my bank account statement was to enter into a deeper and freer state of consciousness, deeper in the sense of depth of wealth and worthiness of money, freer in the sense of staying open to all kinds of ways on how the universe might construct the bridge of incidence so that my manifestation could come to me. And I followed what Neville Goddard said, here in your faith is your fortune.

In order to catch the large manifestations of life, you must enter into deeper and freer states of consciousness. Only in these depths do the big expressions of life live. Now what if you've manifested your way from making, let's say as an example, $3000 a month to $7000 a month? What happens next?

then a new desire is created within you and you rise to a higher and higher state of consciousness as neville goddard reveals in the power of awareness

Regardless of occasional experiences, to the contrary, it is your destiny to rise to higher and higher states of consciousness and to bring into manifestation more and more of creation's infinite wonders. So embrace every new desire, because a new manifestation awaits you with every new level of consciousness that you reach.

And the next point that I want to share with you has to do with the mirror principle. Because the mirror principle says that your outer world is a reflection of your inner world. And in the year 2020, when I had my admittedly rough spiritual awakening, my inner state was like the sewage system of a big city. I was a complete mess back then. So how was I able to go from having nothing in my bank account to now having half a million dollars in my bank account?

I stopped blaming, criticizing, and I stopped trying to shift and change the world around me. And I began looking at myself with radical honesty. In fact, I followed Neville Goddard's advice because Neville Goddard said the following words:

stop trying to change the world since it is only the mirror man's attempt to change the world by force is as fruitless as breaking a mirror in the hope of changing his face leave the mirror and change your face leave the world alone and change your conceptions of yourself the reflection then will be satisfactory

So in order for me to achieve a satisfactory reflection in the mirror, aka a lot of money in my bank account and flying business class instead of being cramped in the cattle class, I had some work to do. And that's why I invite you to ask yourself.

Because Neville Goddard said:

The world is a mirror, forever reflecting what you're doing within yourself. If you know this, you are set free, and a series of events will unfold within you to reveal the story of salvation. That's what Neville Goddard said, and I totally forgot to ask you: Do you believe that you are destined to be wealthy, that being rich is your birthright, and that there are so many good, rich and wealthy people in this world who do good with their money?

I truly hope so, because you can't believe that others are worthy of money and you aren't. You can't believe that rich people are evil and expect wealth to flow to you. Be careful and deliberate about what you believe, because Neville Goddard knew about the power of our beliefs, and that's why he said the following words in Prayer: The Art of Believing:

Now let's jump to the next point. When I first read the following quote from Neville Goddard in Imagination Creates Reality, I broke down crying.

The principle you have unconsciously used to bring about the undesirable conditions in your life can be consciously applied to make your every dream come true. I was unconsciously creating suffering, pain and misery in my life by using a combination of feelings and imagination. And that's when I realized: If I can create sickness, I can also create health.

I just have to consciously apply what I had already unconsciously done anyway, just in the opposite way. And in one of his lectures, Let Us Go Into Silence, Neville Goddard said the following words, You imagine yourself into your present state. If you don't like it, you must imagine yourself out of it and into another. It is all a matter of movement.

That was the challenge I was facing. I had severe nerve damage after my surgery. Every doctor I had spoken to said to me that if it's not healed by now, it won't heal anymore. And I was in so much pain that I was screaming whenever I put my boxer shorts on. And I can tell you, it was not easy. I had many dark nights of the soul.

I had many days when I started crying once I emerged out of a meditation because the pain in my physical reality was too severe. But I didn't give up. I went into the imaginal act again. I created a picture of me running and playing basketball, two things I wasn't able to do back then, and I did it again and again. I felt the basketball in my hands, I felt my feet on the floor, I felt myself jumping, which seemed impossible to ever do again back then.

and I fully trusted the following example from Neville Goddard's Imagination Creates Reality. Now, imagination, being spiritual sensation, is the creator of the world. With her five senses, sight, sound, scent, taste and touch, she transformed a streetcar in San Francisco into a ship in the South Pacific, and within one month, she physically fulfilled her imaginal act.

So no matter what you want to manifest, see it and experience it with your five senses until it manifests. For the next principle I want to share with you, I had to remember a quote from Neville Goddard. And here's the quote. When I speak of feeling, I do not mean emotion, but acceptance of the fact that the desire is fulfilled. Yes, feeling is the secret and feeling the wish fulfilled fulfills this exact wish.

but an intense elevated emotion is not necessary a calm and relaxed feeling of knowingness is enough and it was so much easier for me to create the feeling of calmness than any elevated state of joy or happiness

However, I still believe that elevated emotions impress the subconscious mind in a way where it's easier for you to reach the state of, it is done. And that's just my personal experience and my opinion after having coached hundreds of people in my 8-week one-on-one coaching program, the Abundance Reality Shift Coaching Program.

And should you, however, struggle with the joy, the happiness and the excitement of the wish fulfilled, you can start with calmness and relaxation and remember what Neville Goddard says in The Power of Awareness. The great secret is a controlled imagination and a well-sustained attention firmly and repeatedly focused on the feeling of the wish fulfilled until it fills the mind and crowds all other ideas out of consciousness.

So will you feel this feeling the first time you practice it? Maybe, but maybe not. Then do it again. I mean Arnold Schwarzenegger also didn't become Mr. Olympia by lifting a dumbbell once or by looking at a Ratch Park poster once and by visualizing himself once on the state of Mr. Olympia. And Neville Goddard said it with the following words:

You must assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled until your assumption has all the sensory vividness of reality. And this can take some attempts.

And now for the next principle I want to share with you. It's time that we step into the role of a method actor and to change your self-concept, because changing your self-concept changes the world in which you live. And now you might be saying, isn't the imaginal act and the feeling of the wish fulfilled enough? Do I really have to do this? Well, only if you want to manifest 10 times, 20 times or even 100 times faster, because in the power of awareness, Neville Goddard said,

If creation is finished and all events are taking place now, the question that springs naturally to the mind is, what determines your time track? That is, what determines the events which you encounter? And the answer is, your concept of yourself.

So if you want to be a millionaire in the next 50 years, you can skip this part. But if you want to be a millionaire in the next two years, I invite you to buckle up and to change your maybe not so favorable self-concept. Because in The Power of Awareness, Neville Goddard said, To reach a higher level of being, you must assume a higher concept of yourself.

And what is your self-concept? Your self-concept is how you see yourself and the world around you. This state can be influenced by your beliefs, your thoughts, your emotions, and even by the way you walk and stand. And by the way, in week number three of my Abundance Reality Shift coaching program, we create your Abundant Self-Concept in such a detailed way that large sums of money have to flow to you.

Now let's compare the self-concept of someone who is trapped in lack with the self-concept of someone who is abundant. Somebody who is in lack would think: "I never have enough." Somebody who is abundant would say and think: "I always have way more than enough." Somebody who is in lack would think: "Oh my god, in this economy it's so hard to make money." Somebody who is in abundance would think: "No matter what the economy looks like, there are always opportunities to make money."

And just like a method actor, you have to first create your abundant protagonist for your movie with the title My Abundant Dream Life and then you embody this role every day. Because as Neville Goddard said in The Power of Awareness, the process of rising from your present concept to a higher concept of yourself is the means of all true progress. And the higher concept is waiting for you to incarnate it in the world of experience.

And this leads me to the next principle I want to share with you. The law of identical harvest should motivate you to closely observe your thoughts, feelings and beliefs, because every thought, every feeling and every belief produces a harvest that matches its nature. So what you sow in your mind is what you reap in life.

And that's why replacing the bad stuff that's floating around in your brain with good stuff is so important. And now I can already hear you say, I've put my seed in the ground, how will that damn thing grow? Well, here's what happens. This is none of your business, because in your faith it's your fortune, Neville Goddard said.

So let's say you want to manifest $10,000 a month.

Our logical human mind, especially when you are an analytical German like me, immediately wants to know how and when you can reap the harvest. But we already learned that the when is largely influenced by your self-concept. What about the how? That will be taken care of by the universe, with a principle that I will address later in this episode. But remember these words from Neville Goddard. You simply plant and let the harvest take care of itself.

Now, we already talked about the feeling of the wish fulfilled, but we didn't explore the importance of underlying the feeling of the wish fulfilled with a clear assumption. Because according to Oxford languages, one definition of the word to assume is to take or begin to have. And one definition of the noun assumption is a thing that is accepted as true or as certain to happen without proof.

So by assuming the feeling of the wish fulfilled you begin to have it, and with your assumption you accept this new reality as true without seeing any factual proof in your physical reality yet.

So once you assume a state, a feeling of a reality, for example the millionaire state while you feel like a million bucks and you assume living in a reality in which you are already a millionaire, your attention guides you on the route that leads you to this physical manifestation. And yes, the physical manifestation always follows the psychological change. Because Neville Goddard described this in Resurrection: "Imagine your dream as reality." Here's what he said:

Assume the feeling of your wish fulfilled and continue feeling that it is fulfilled until that which you feel objectifies itself. If a physical fact can produce a psychological state, a psychological state can produce a physical fact.

And if I only had known this next principle sooner and followed it sooner, I could have saved myself so much pain and suffering. Because at the beginning of my manifestation journey, I was living in regret. And I asked myself, why did I destroy my body all these years? Why did I do this to myself?

and yes i was based in regret and unless you overcome this emotion it will be impossible for you to manifest a different future because regret is not in alignment with the feeling of the wish fulfilled in the feeling is the secret nebel goddard said

Do not waste one moment in regret, for to think feelingly of the mistakes of the past is to reinfect yourself. Turn from appearances and assume the feeling that would be yours were you already the one you wish to be. And of course you would do things differently now that you have had your awakening and you know that you are the creator of your life.

Of course you would think abundant thoughts sooner and feel abundant feelings more often, and yes, most likely your bank account statement would look different now. But life is not about should-haves and would-haves. It's about moving on and to realize that your future is not a natural development of the past, unless you force it to be that, because you stay trapped in the feeling of regret. So free yourself from the past by embracing the law of assumption every day and assume a new future.

And Neville wants you to do exactly that and he describes it beautifully with the following words:

Man believes the future to be the natural development of the past, but the law of assumption clearly shows that this is not the case. Your assumption places you psychologically where you're not physically. Then your senses pull you back from where you were psychologically to where you are physically. It is these psychological forward motions that produce your physical forward motions in time. And now let's jump to the next principle.

When I embarked on my money manifestation journey, I always had this image in mind of having thousands of downloads for my different podcasts because I thought then I would sell a lot of products and be abundant. But then I realized that I wasn't living in the end. I was only seeing one aspect of the big picture that could or could not be part of the desired end state, which was making first $5,000, then $10,000, then $20,000 a month.

And that's when I realized what Neville Goddard said in Feeling is the Secret. Live in the feeling of being the one you want to be and that you shall be. So if you want to be wealthy, you must live your life as someone who is already wealthy. If you want to be healthy, you must live your life as someone who is already healthy.

If you want to have a fulfilling relationship, you must live your life as someone who is already in a fulfilling relationship. But now I hear you saying, how the heck do I do that? Well, two of Neville Goddard's manifestation techniques are perfect for that.

Technique number one: Isn't it wonderful? Isn't it wonderful that I'm in such a fulfilling relationship? Isn't it wonderful that I have half a million dollars in my bank account? And thanks to the principles that I share with you in this episode, I actually have that in my physical reality. And you can have the same. And the second technique I want to share with you is: How did I?

How did I become so wealthy? How did I attract such an amazing partner? How did I become so healthy? And remember that this is meant as a confirming question to elicit the experience, not to seek a logical answer on how you accomplished it. Your job is to smile and to feel accomplished because you've already accomplished it while you're asking yourself, how did I do it?

And the simple principle I'm about to share with you right now completely changed my life. And sometimes one sentence is enough. Because I had this big goal in mind, or at least for me it was a big goal back then. I wanted to triple my income from making less than $1,000 a month to making more than $3,000 a month. And when my mentor coach looked at me and said, double it, I

I set myself this even bigger goal of, yeah, of 6x-ing my income. And I then decided that $6,000 a month would be possible because my mentor coach believed in me. And just because he believed in me, I then set myself this goal, even though I have to admit that my initial reaction was like, are you crazy? Are you insane? That's impossible.

And it's kind of hilarious for me to think back to this time, because now I'm making way more than $20,000 a month, and back then I was freaking out about a potential $6,000 a month. Well, that's the power of having the right mental diet. And just like you feel sluggish and tired when you shove french fries and cookies in your mouth all day long, you feel disconnected from your desire, and therefore from the manifestation that you want to achieve, that you want to materialize, when you have a horrible mental diet.

Here's what Neville Goddard said: "If we could master our inner conversations to mirror our desires on a daily basis, as if they were true, as if they were happening now, then all our desires would manifest. It is law." And this means that speaking an affirmation every once in a while is not enough. Or well, it might be, but only if you use it to revise, replace and actively transform any negative thought.

And by negative thought I mean a thought that is based on doubt, fear or disbelief about your desired manifestation and your power as a creator. So what if you don't like your current reality? Do what Neville Goddard says with the following words: "If we do not like what is happening to us, it is a sure sign that we are in need of a change of mental diet."

So you can start experimenting with your mental diet by replacing all negative thoughts with one guiding affirmation. Because remember, every thought is an affirmation and every affirmation is a thought. And once you've gotten good at this simple way of mental dieting, you can then reach the next level by introducing more and more empowering thoughts in the mix.

as replacement thoughts for any negative thoughts. In fact, in week number one of my eight-week one-on-one coaching program, the Abundance Reality Shift coaching program, I make sure that you let go of all your limiting beliefs about money and replace them with empowering beliefs about money. And in week number two, we are then going to install these empowering beliefs deep in your subconscious mind with a powerful hypnosis so that your paradigm can shift.

And thankfully, Neville Goddard left us clear instructions about the nature of the thoughts that we should include in our mental diet. Here's what he said:

We cannot have a little bit of meditation in the morning, curse at noon and do something else in the evening. We have to go on a mental diet. For a week we must completely change our mental food. Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are of good report, if there be any virtue and if there be any praise, think of these things.

And remember the following three words that lead me to the next principle: Creation is finished. I thought to myself: "Great, so I meditate once and now I just have to wait until everything I want comes to me because now my creation is finished." But that would go against what Neville Goddard said about being persistent.

Here's what he said: "Persistent imagination centered in the feeling of the wish fulfilled is the secret of all successful operations." And then it hit me like a ton of bricks, in a good way. "Creation is finished" simply means that every potential you want to draw to you is already existing in the universe, it's already there. You just have to imagine yourself in it and it is yours. And that's exactly what Neville Goddard says here in "The Power of Awareness":

Because creation is finished, what you desire already exists. It is excluded from view because you can see only the contents of your own consciousness.

This means that you don't have to go through any complicated process or any suffering to create what you want with hard work. You simply have to align yourself with your rich and wealthy reality through your thoughts and feelings in order to live in this rich and wealthy reality. And I absolutely love how Neville Goddard describes this with the metaphor of a sculpture in Your Faith is Your Fortune.

when a sculptor looks at a formless piece of marble he sees buried within its formless mass his finished piece of art the sculptor instead of making his masterpiece merrily reveals it by removing that part of the marble which hides his conception the same applies to you

And just like the sculpture removes that part of the marble that hides the statue, you as the operant power have to remove any thought, belief and feeling that is currently burying your abundant self-concept and therefore your abundant self. And you do that with your awareness. In fact, in The Power of Awareness, Neville Goddard said this:

This is what is meant by creation, and the statement that creation is finished means that nothing is ever to be created, it is only to be manifested. What is called creativeness is only becoming aware of what already is.

But for me the principle "creation is finished" only made sense once I fully understood how the final creation would then arrive in my physical reality. And please allow me to share two quick stories with you, one that will immediately inspire you and one that will only inspire you once you have listened to this episode until the very end. So now let's jump to story number one.

When I made the jump from $5,000 to $10,000 a month in income, I had an intense meditation that provided me with multiple business and product ideas that helped me to make this jump within 30 days. And this was the incident I needed.

Story number two: When I made the jump from $10,000 to $20,000 a month in income, I got a cold. This cold led to me resting in bed, and while I was then binge-watching YouTube videos because I wasn't able to record anything because my voice was gone, I had THE insight that helped me to make the jump from $10,000 to $20,000 within 60 days. This was the incident I needed.

And here's the lesson. The bridge of incidence describes the natural unfolding of events that occurs so that your manifestation can come to you and that your manifestation can materialize. Our physical reality rearranges itself to conform to our assumptions.

And just like in the personal stories I shared with you, it's not always a linear way that you have to walk over the bridge of incidents. Sometimes there is a bump in the bridge, but without this bump you would not arrive on the other side of the bridge. And in Neville Goddard's lecture Freedom, he said the following...

one day i was fired from j c pennycoe working for a year and a half running their elevator and being their errand boy making twenty-two dollars a week and paying five dollars room rent i could not understand it when they let me go but my dreams my desires transcended my position there

So they had to do what they did in order for my desires to be realized. Believe me, you are the cause of the phenomena of your life, be it good, bad or indifferent.

In a sense, Neville made a similar experience that I made with my cold. It's one of these "if X hadn't happened, I would not be living my dream life now" moments. But this variable X, which might be an idea, a special meeting or any other opportunity, isn't necessarily an event that your conscious mind immediately defines as something incredibly positive. In these moments you have to remind yourself of what Neville Goddard said in "The Power of Awareness":

An assumption builds a bridge of incidents that lead inevitably to the fulfillment of itself.

So as long as you apply the principles I shared with you in this episode, this statement holds true. And also keep in mind that people who don't know about the law will tell you that it's just a coincidence or that it's just because logical fact X or logical fact Y happened, but you know better. You know what Neville Goddard described with the following words in his lecture, Live in the End.

If you tell them it came to pass because you simply imagined it, no, they will point to the series of events that led up to it, and they will give credit to the bridge of incidents across which you walked towards the fulfillment of that state, and they will point out some physical thing that was the cause. No, the cause is invisible, for the cause is God, and God is invisible to mortal eye.

And that's why I now invite you to enjoy this beautiful journey of manifesting anything you want with the principles I shared with you in this episode. And I also want to let you know that you will find many of these principles I shared with you
