I GOT A FUCKING RAISE THE POTATO WORKED WTF
This potato works. Every. Fucking. Time.
Then bring me luck
the day after I posted this last time I was notified that I was selected for a really cool mentorship gig and got an unrelated glowing review at work
I really need something good
This potato works wtf😭
i believe in this potato 🙏🏼
"For if a man is ever hindered, it can only be the state of consciousness in which he abides that hinders him. Man is freed or constrained by the state of mind in which he persists. If you wish to persist in your current state, well, then persist in it.
But I warn you: No one cares.
And that’s an awful blow when a man discovers that no one – no one but himself – really cares. We find ourselves weeping with ourselves in the hope of getting others to weep with us. And what an awful shock, when the day arrives, that we discover that no one really ever cared. They’ll give us some little listening ear for a moment just as they were passing by, but they really didn’t care. When we make that discovery, we shake ourselves out of it, and boldly appropriate the gift our Father gave us before the world was." -changing the feeling of i
y'all see this??????????? this is why i love neville.
you can stay in a victim state all you want. you can whine and moan about your circumstances all you want but the thing is no one cares. people close to you care at the moment but the moment they turn their back, they have their own thing going on and move on with their life. no one cares about your inner state of mind but you. not your mom, not your best friend, not your pet, not your siblings, not the love of your life, not your manifesting bestie you made on the internet, not even neville, but you.
you run to loa bloggers that seem kind and they give you reassurance and say things like "I'm rooting for you", "I believe in you", etc but let's be real, they don't really care. no one cares about why you're in the state of mind you're currently in right now. you're the only one who cares. when you realize this, like really realize this, it hits you like you got hit by a hammer. you'll see that there is absolutely NO reason to stay in your undesired state and give excuses as to why you're that way. because of my childhood, because of my parents, because of the weather, because of the election, because my cat is pregnant......you're the only one who cares. I'm sorry if this sounds harsh, but it's true. when you realize this, you ditch your old state at the speed of light and start falling in love and dwelling in your new state because.....you're the only one who truly cares about your inner state of consciousness.
I AM+hopeless=i am hopeless
I AM+stuck=i am stuck
I AM+depressed=i am depressed
I AM+anxious=i am anxious
you're the I AM and you can attach anything that comes after I AM(present tense feeling of being/experiencing). why stay in those nasty states when it's a choice you and you alone are making within yourself? all states within you are yours. at the end of the day, no one truly really cares but you, you know.
Oh this is absolutely excellent from beginning to end thank you for sending this in.
the law of assumption.
manifestation refers to the practice of controlling thoughts, thinking wisely and exercising self-awareness. it’s the act which represents the very cause of the materialisation of our own consciousness into the external physical world. but what is this phenomenon based on?
the reason is called the law of assumption. the law of assumption is what the reflection of our inner conversations is dependent on. it’s the law that enables the process of conscious creation done in the mind. it’s the undeniable, inescapable and irrefutable principle which states that our thoughts, moreover our assumptions, shape our outer reality. one of the most known teachers to have coined and defined the law as we know it today was neville goddard. he has provided us with most of the information we have nowadays in forms of books and lectures.
disclaimer · now, the theory or philosophy behind the law has existed for a very long time, way before neville goddard has redefined its meaning by his own conceptions. in terms of spirituality, the belief in the creative power of thoughts has been existent for far longer than that.
assumptions harden into fact.
with the law of assumption, we are referring to a very certain group of thoughts — assumptions. assumptions are merely accepted thoughts, thoughts you claim to be true or thoughts you consistently turn back to, aka continuously persist in.
it is important to note that your assumptions, by definition, aren’t based on evidence at all. you assume things to be correct to you without the confirmation of the senses or any other physical validation or verification. why? because the law of assumption is based on faith. on your own, personal belief. it is entirely separated from anything that could be deemed as factual, fixed or forever. therefore, by this law, you are allowed to assume anything. there has to be NO explanation for why you want to assume something! you just do it.
facts about and along the law.
the law is also no respector of morals and values. the same way it does not respect logic, it does not work with logical reasoning either. your assumptions manifest because of your acceptance in them, regardless of any sense. they aren’t based on any truth but your truth.
your assumptions create the world around you. it's inevitable. the assumptions you have about yourself, your family, your friends,… everything and everyone, all of them build the ground which you call your life.
another point is that your thoughts — and your thoughts only — create. everyone is you pushed out, meaning everybody is a product of your assumption about them and yourself, leaving no place for "free will" exist. you are the god of your reality, therefore if you desire a change in the world, there is nothing and no one to change other than self.
because creation is finished, because there is an infinite number of states, any reality that you could possibly think of exists already. anything you can desire, you can imagine and therefore manifest. everything is possible. there is nothing in this world that you cannot be or have, as there are no limitations or restrictions to you. reality is simply what you assume it to be.
consciousness is the only reality. everything stems from your awareness. things can only exist within consciousness owing to the fact that imagination creates reality. and that’s where all creation starts — in the mind, mentally. as you are within, so you are without, meaning that signs do not precede but they follow. yourself must be expressed, dictating, directing and determining the contents of your world.
with love, ella.

How to manifest your desire in 3D?
Give it to yourself in your imagination (4D). End.
I'm not kidding, that's all you need to do. If you argue and say: “I gave this to myself in my imagination, why don’t I see it in 3D?” No, you didn't give it to yourself. Otherwise you wouldn't have this question. Go back to the beginning of the post and repeat. Stop sabotaging and just do it.
tip for getting back into reading
i have found that the best way to get into reading is going back to books from your childhood, they are usually relatively short and easy to follow!
struggling?
just put yourself in a state of feeling relieved and normal (whatever that means to you) and any time your desire comes to mind, shrug or throw up your hands and be like, “somehow that worked out.” you’ll feel so much better and your imagination is always outpicturing itself so…boop. you’ll see evidence that it did, indeed, all work out.
never fails.
trust the law. trust yourself.
love you guys.
you’ve got this. it’s so simple.
reading neville’s books is so important for truly understanding the law
my favorite way to consciously manifest lately
in case anyone is interested and wants to experience bliss and ease 🍃 with me:
i simply tuck anything i wish to experience in the back of my mind as if it has already happened, either by creating a memory in my imagination or just throwing it in what i call a mind pocket, which usually leads to a memory creation anyway, and then i walk around all day hand to heart repeating, “thank you,” and feeling snuggly.
if something is causing me anxiety for any reason—wait but how would that…?—or if i notice i’m starting to fall back into an old state, i take a few deep breaths, shake or dance or sing or run or whatever my body wants to do to move that energy through me, and then i remind myself, “that already happened. 😌” and then i go about my day.
that’s it!
i suppose it’s my version of the list method x “isn’t it wonderful,” and it works beautifully for me.
i don’t like to think about specific desires much because i don’t like to think much. i prefer to stay present, aware, and “thank you” is prayer for me. i actually got it tattooed on my forearm the day i graduated college. thank you for what’s here, now. thank you for everything i wanted at the start of the week. thank you for all the blessings i never even had the chance to imagine. so much good is happening.
try it with me this week?
love you team.

the duality of self.
when neville was referring to us humans as gods of our realities, he meant it. not only was he referring to our abilities — which are god-like — he was also talking about our existence as god.
human in reality.
in this outer world, this physical place, you are human — god in the human body. the reason why you are a human in physical form is the same reason why everything around you is physical as well. it’s because you are CONSCIOUS of it. your consciousness creates… everything. pretty much everything. therefore, the reason why you experience life as a human is because you are CONSCIOUS of being human. we could take a step further and say that the same goes for your entire 3D. it is also a byproduct of your imagination, just like your physical body. perceiving the world with your senses, having these senses in the first place is all possible due to imagination.
god in imagination.
if the five senses — smelling, tasting, touching, hearing, seeing — are your natural human senses, what about god's natural sense? god's sense is IMAGINING. for god, there is only one sense and it’s the ability to create. to have the power to create the world according to your imaginative acts in your own imagination is your most natural sense. it’s in your nature to create. all because IMAGINATION is your true reality, just like GOD is your true self.
the god and human self.
so, when neville calls you the GOD of your reality, he is pointing at your imagination. yourself, in imagination, is god. your imagination is god. your consciousness is god. your awareness of being is god. it’s not your human body in flesh and blood. you don’t need to convince yourself that your human self possesses the same qualities as your god self. your body, if you like it or not, isn’t your true self. it is a creation of you, god in imagination. it’s a conception of the conceiver. and the conceiver is forever greater than its conception.
you are god. and besides you, there is no other.
with love, ella.
the law is always operating whether you’re experiencing what you want or not, so if you’ve been trying and trying and trying for months and all you’re experiencing is your own trying (and probably frustration/exhaustion), it’s time to stop.
before you throw hands, don’t worry, i’m not gonna tell you to give up on what you want. you’re meant to have it, you already do have it, you just need to operate from the state of fulfilled desire. so, let me help.
your “biggest” desire(s) materialized 30 minutes ago. you were fUcKiNg StOkEd, as you should be 🤭, powerful one, and then the excitement settled, and now you feel……………….
normal?
oop, yeah, all the manifesting stress skress is gonzo.
you no longer “have to” affirm or listen to subs or do SATS or any of that other stuff.
and of course you’re thinking about whatever you manifested, but instead of thinking of it as ~~~out there~~~ it’s now……………..
in your physical realm.
(which is still just consciousness, but whatever).
point is, you’re thinking about it like it’s here.
which it has been all along.
so, tell me, truly, what are your thoughts?
i love (SP) so much. i’m so relieved we are back together.
fuck i really needed that 1,000 bucks. now i can pay rent/put it toward buying my dog.
jk just manifest the dog lol. lord knows i’mma get my hound.
oooohhh baby! ya girl got hired, as she SHOULD. 💋 now it’s time to go get some fire office attire.
you get the idea. you’re thinking from your desire instead of of it.
that’s all that’s required to experience what you want!
so, do that. enter the state of fulfilled desire. whatever feelings/thoughts naturally arise are the “right” feelings/thoughts—because they’re natural, not forced—and otherwise, you just chill. live your life. be the coolest, kindest, most badass version of yourself.
and simply allow what’s already yours to materialize so fast.
now, you might feel a little fear at first, because there’s no way it can be this simple, but, 1) i promise it is this simple, and 2) it’s fine to feel fear. you can feel fear and still experience what you want! you can also look fear in the face and giggle because you know you’re the operant power, and, as within, so without, so like—what’s a silly mind-body sensation got on ya? nothing, that’s what. and, my favorite, you can transmute fear into excitement/gratitude.
but what if it doesn’t happen 😣😣😣 —> it already did happen! let’s goooooooooo 🤸🏻♂️
mmmmk. that’s what i’ve got for ya.
always here to help if you need it, but you probably need less help than you think you do.
you’re so goddamn powerful. know it. be it.
you want it? it’s done.
already written.
ALSO THIS POST DISAPPEARED FROM MY DRAFTS AND I WAS LIKE ABSOLUTELY NOT MY FOLLOWERS NEED IT I’M TURNING MY PHONE OFF AND BACK ON AND IT’LL BE BACK AND IT WAS. BLESS THE LAW. YOU’RE WELCOME.
muah.
my dudes, you have got to stop overthinking this. all versions of you already exist. all you are doing is shifting internally to a reality in which you already are exactly who you want to be and have exactly what you want to have, and otherwise, LIVING. you are not waiting for any external confirmation. you are not trying to make something happen. why the fuck would you? you are the confirmation. you already made it happen. you're the most powerful creature alive. know it. be it. keep being it. expression is inevitable. just chill the fuck out and let it happen.
(said with love. hehe. love you team.)
assign yourself a new role
i know people can find states of consciousness a bit confusing, so here's a super simple exercise you can do to locate (and then be and persist in) your ideal self.
imagine somebody comes to you and says you can be anybody, instantly. you think--in terms of manifestation--well, i want to manifest my SP, so i guess that means i want to be SP's girlfriend?
ok, but what does that mean? what does that look like for you? what does that feel like?
well, i want my SP lovingly obsessed with me, spoiling me, blowing up my phone 24/7, buying me flowers and gifts and a ring, taking me on all sorts of fancy dates and trips, racing home to me at the end of the work day...
ok, so your new identity is "obsessed over, spoiled girlfriend."
i want you to imagine, now, you're on a movie set, and the director comes to you and says, "your job is to be THE obsessed over, spoiled girlfriend. i'm not giving you any lines, though. i'm not telling you how to dress or how to act. you gotta adlib, you gotta do it now, and you gotta keep doing it. that's it. that's the task."
you say ok, and you feel a switch go off within you, right?
you're no longer the person who's obsessively manifesting an SP. no. your SP is chasing you. you cannot get this man to stop texting you. you're thinking, "oh my god. he is such a simp for me, it's almost funny. he'll do anything he can to spend every second with me." you get home from shopping and--he left flowers on your doorstep? and a note? holy shit. your SP wrote you a love poem?!!?! and bought you tickets to ITALY?!
you probably feel...different...in your body, too. energetically. much more secure, powerful, maybe even sensual, a bit savage. focused on yourself and your goals, other areas of your life like friendships and work. all that neediness and yearning and pain just--dissipated. you're no longer the desirer. you're the desired.
feels good, doesn't it?
well, you just shifted your state.
that all took place in imagination, but it felt real because...spoiler alert...it is real.
you're not imagining to become.
you imagine and you are.
instantly.
so you continue imagining. not because you want to "get" your SP (though you will, by law), but because "obsessed over, spoiled girlfriend" is the identity you've chosen, and you love being her. it feels right to you, natural, effortless, authentic. feels like who you are, like your truth.
(also, you don't want to get fired by the movie director, who is the most badass person alive...oh, right, that's you, too).
this applies to anything, and doesn't need to be a singular identity. you can be "obsessed over, spoiled girlfriend" and "rich as fuck powerhouse crossfit champion of the world" and "the most sought after dog walker in all the land" and "baker extraordinaire" and "bestselling author with a three-book deal." these are all just states of consciousness, and your ideal self is all you assume you are, all wrapped in one.
have FUN.
be because it feels good, because it's true, because it's you.
your world will--because it must--re-shape itself around you.
if you are waiting for something or someone, you will wait forever. i don't mean that in the sense that you'll never "get" your manifestation--of course you will--you already have it--but more so in the sense that, even when it's in your perceived physical world, you'll still be relying on it to make you feel whatever way you've convinced yourself it'll make you feel, which is the very reason you're so determined to "get" it in the first place. the solution? free yourself now by settling into and truly experiencing--with awe, and gratitude, even an air of mystery--your natural state of wholeness, of joy, of love. self-reliance. i know it might feel uncomfortable at first, but--just be. be with your Self. see if it's true, that you are what you seek. and if it is, well, what changes?

pdfs of all of neville's books
Neville references Christianity and the Bible a lot in some of his works, but even if you aren't Christian or religious at all there's still a lot you could learn from his more Bible-themed works!
I recommend starting with The Law and the Promise, it's the first Neville book I read and it's still my favorite.
At Your Command (1939)
Your Faith is Your Fortune (1941)
Freedom For All (1942)
Feeling Is the Secret (1944)
Prayer, the Art of Believing (1946)
Out of This World (1949)
The Creative Use of Imagination (1952)
The Power of Awareness (1952)
Awakened Imagination (1954)
Seedtime and Harvest (1956) (also here)
The Law and the Promise (1961) (also here and here)
How does one fall in love with their imagination?
by giving yourself the freedom to imagine and feel what you love. by understanding that imagination is your own personal reality and if you want to fall in love with your imagination, no one and nothing has the power to stop you, only you do.
ask yourself "what do i want to be?" "what would I love to be?" "what would I love to imagine and feel?" but ask yourself as the inner self, not as the outer self. and answer shamelessly and honestly and do it in imagination.
in imagination, do what you want to do not what you think you have to do in order to manifest.
gently yield to it and fall in love with it. never force anything! abandon yourself to something you'd really love to be. it's complete abandonment to a point where the 3d doesn't bother you because you're so in love with the feeling.
"my god my god what have you forsaken me?" -matthew 24:46
lmk if anyone agrees with this
i’ve been thinking about this for a while since edward art posted his law of being video and i know it’s only a terminology thing but i think the term ‘law of being’ may be more suitable than ‘law of assumption’ for some people.
because i’ve seen so many people asking bloggers how to assume or how to know whether they’re assuming correctly or how they’ve been assuming for weeks and months yet never got results, etc…
when neville says ‘assume it’, he does not mean assume you have it in the 3d, he means assume you have in IN IMAGINATION. and you identify yourself with your 4d self, the “you” in imagination, not with your 3d self which is nothing but a garment you’re wearing.
as soon as you assume something in imagination, it becomes in imagination. it’s instant.
‘to assume’, in a greater sense, means ‘to take identity of, to become’. so if you assume you’re wealthy, you assume you are wealthy IN IMAGINATION. you become wealthy in imagination and continue BEING wealthy in imagination until it feels natural. leave the world entirely alone.
that’s what neville meant by ‘change conceptions of yourself’. changing your self-concept means changing your identity. change what you identify yourself as. that’s what changing your self-concept means.
next time ‘assume’ comes off as confusing, think of it as ‘BEING’. you BE it in imagination. forget everything that happened. it’s all now. BE it in imagination and continue being it because that’s what you WANT to do, not what you have to do.
assume you have clear skin=assume you have clear skin in imagination=leave the world alone and BE the person who has clear skin in imagination only.
“i tried techniques, methods, i persisted this and that”. i give you an A for trying. but are you BEING the one who has the desire? it’s about being.
if you want to be something in your world, you must first BE it in imagination.
“I AM the law of being and beside ME there is no law. I AM that I AM” -neville
I AM is the way, I AM is the truth, I AM is the life (john 14:6)
