How to Practice Neville Goddard's 'State of the Wish Fulfilled' Daily

The most powerful manifestation technique ever taught isn't about visualization, affirmations, or vision boards. It's about living in the state of your wish already fulfilled—a practice Neville Goddard called the foundation of all successful manifestation.

What Is the "State of the Wish Fulfilled"?

Neville Goddard taught that your imagination is God—the creative force that shapes your reality. The "state of the wish fulfilled" means feeling and thinking as if your desire has already materialized, not as something you're trying to get, but as something you already have.

The Key Distinction

Most people practice wanting their desires. Successful manifestors practice having their desires.

When you consistently feel wealthy, you attract wealth. When you consistently feel loved, you attract love. When you consistently feel successful, you attract success. Your external world has no choice but to reflect your internal state.

The Science Behind Neville's Teaching

Modern neuroscience validates what Neville taught decades ago:

Neuroplasticity: Your brain rewires itself based on repeated thoughts and feelings

Reticular Activating System: You notice opportunities that match your internal state

Mirror Neurons: You automatically behave in ways that align with your identity

When you live in the state of having your desire, you literally become a different person—one who naturally attracts what you want.

Step-by-Step Practice Guide

Morning Practice (15-20 minutes)

1. Choose Your Desire

Pick ONE specific desire to focus on

Make it personal and emotionally meaningful

Write it down in present tense: "I am..." or "I have..."

2. Enter the State

Sit comfortably and close your eyes

Take 5 deep breaths to center yourself

Ask: "How would I feel if this were already true?"

3. Embody the Feeling

Don't just visualize—FEEL the reality of having your desire

Notice the relief, joy, gratitude, or peace of fulfillment

If emotions don't come naturally, act as if they're there

4. Live from That State

Open your eyes and carry that feeling into your day

Make decisions from this fulfilled state

Notice how differently you move through the world

Evening Practice (15-20 minutes)

1. State Akin to Sleep (SATS)

Neville's most powerful technique

As you're falling asleep, imagine a scene that implies your wish fulfilled

Make it short, vivid, and emotionally satisfying

2. Loop the Scene

Repeat the same imagined scene over and over

Feel it as real and present

Fall asleep in this fulfilled state

3. Program Your Subconscious

Your subconscious is most receptive during the drowsy state

Whatever you feel as you fall asleep becomes your new normal

Trust the process—results follow feeling

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Mistake #1: Trying to Feel Better About Not Having

This keeps you in the state of lack. Instead, feel grateful for already having your desire.

Mistake #2: Checking for Results

Constantly looking for proof maintains doubt. True belief doesn't need confirmation.

Mistake #3: Forcing the Feeling

If you can't feel it, act as if you can. Your subconscious doesn't know the difference between real and imagined feelings.

Mistake #4: Practicing Multiple Desires

Focus on ONE desire until it manifests. Scattered attention creates scattered results.

Real-World Application

Feel abundant and secure now

Make decisions from the state of being someone who has more than enough

Signs You're Practicing Correctly

1. Inner Peace: You stop feeling desperate or anxious about your desire

2. Natural Action: You take inspired action without forcing

3. Shifted Perspective: You see opportunities you didn't notice before

4. Changed Behavior: People treat you differently because you carry yourself differently

5. Synchronicities: "Coincidences" start appearing in your life

Advanced Techniques

Revision

At night, revise any experiences that didn't align with your desired state

Reimagine how situations would have unfolded if you were already fulfilled

This reprograms your subconscious patterns

Laddering

Start with smaller desires to build faith

Each success increases your conviction

Graduate to bigger manifestations

Living in the Wish Fulfilled All Day

Before every decision ask: "What would I do if I already had my desire?"

Act from that state consistently

Your external world will conform to your internal state
