I have read almost everything written on the “Law of Attraction” and what Neville wrote in 1944 in his book the Power of Awareness has more truth per word then virtually anything written since.
Take a few minutes and deeply consider what Neville is saying.
The Power of Awareness by Neville

To become the master of your assumptions is the key to undreamed of freedom and happiness.
You can attain this mastery by deliberate conscious control of your imagination.
You determine your assumptions in this way: From a mental image, a picture of the state desired, of the person you want to be.
Concentrate you attention upon the feeling that you are already that person. First visualize the picture in your consciousness.
Then feel yourself to be in that state as though it actually formed your surrounding world. By your imagination that which was a mere mental image is changed in to seemingly solid reality.
The great secret is controlled imagination and well sustained attention firmly and repeatedly focused on the object to be accomplished.
It cannot be emphasized too much that by creating an ideal within your mental sphere, by assuming that you are already that ideal, you identify yourself with it and thereby transform yourself into its image thinking from the ideal instead of thinking of the ideal.
Every state is already there as “mere possibilities” as long as we think of them, but are overwhelming real when we think from them.
Joe! That gave me goosebumps reading that! What an incredible thought that I can create the person I want to be! Thanks to the BRO Community, I have plenty of rolemodels to begin to put together that imagined person I am destined to become. Thanks for that reading, I needed it today.
