"Be childlike in the eyes of god"
To the intellect that sounds almost like a mocking statement when it's really a key...
And exactly @ the bold, this is why a lot of people like Neville because he's a bit more practical than encourages testing the law. You don't gotta neseccerily believe, just be curious enough to REALLY understand the basics and test it.
Neville even dared people to prove him wrong. That's the kind of confidence that makes you think twice about doubting him. No scammer would ever risk being exposed. But Neville fully believed in what he was talking about, because he lived it enough and had enough stories from his clients to know that what he's saying is truth.
Truth be told, the fact that manifestation is even possible is proof that this reality is a lot stranger than we think it is. If I can virtually manifest anything I want within reason, the implications behind that is really mind-blowing the more you think about it. And what we don't talk about is how this probably affects humanity as a whole. Celebrities are the best examples of it in action. And if they know how it works, and smaller YouTube channels know how it works... Then surely people high up on the food chain know about this, too. If most people knew this knowledge and actually used it well, imagine how different life would be.
I've read 2 neville books, many lectures and watched Lindell videos before but still struggle with living in the end. How do i you apply this with a chronic illness that you have to manage daily? So your reminded everyday you have an condition, it takes you out of living from what you want. For example, how do you imagine being dry when you are wet? All your senses say you are wet, how do you ignore that? Also if you feel like shyt, how do you enter a state? I can't conjure up the feeling of achievement like that because i'm not that familiar with it at the scale i desire.
This is where the journey is important because you're not gonna get there right away. It's one thing to find the feeling place, but another thing entirely to truly live there. If finding the feeling is an issue, you take it one step at a time. That's why techniques exist, because it's hard to just "accept" your desire as done unless you have true faith and knowledge of how this works.
Shutting off the senses via entering the state akin to sleep is probably the easiest way to do this, because all you do is loop a short scene that implies you have what you want until the feeling starts to generate, and then you fall asleep. Or, you keep thinking "Isn't it wonderful?" and generate a feeling of gratitude and sleep in that feeling. Again, if you're reaching for the exact opposite circumstance in your life, it'll take a bit to get there. Not months, but feelings do intensify over time.
That's where the core of this also comes in: persistence. You have to be bold enough to know that your circumstances don't matter anymore because your new circumstances are on the way. The life that you want. But of course, that's much easier said than done, so that's why you go at your own pace. It's all even if you feel a bit of a change, that's also going to reflect in your world, so seeing that change can act as a very welcomed validation of it working. In the end, it comes down to putting it to the test. Feel free to also write down how you'd feel as well, sometimes writing it out and brainstorming things can make ideas more concrete. At least then you have a game plan and can work from there.
