“You can test God through the act of assumption. By assuming you are now what you desire to be, and wearing that belief as you would a suit of clothes, you will become it.
“I can remember buying a new hat and walking down the streets of New York City thinking everyone knew my hat was new. I was very conscious of my hat and a little embarrassed because of its newness. But when I had worn it long enough to throw it in the closet and unconsciously pick it up again, it was an old hat and I could wear it normally. You may deny this, but if you are honest with yourself you will admit that you are very conscious of a new suit or dress, even though those who meet you may not know or care whether your clothes are old or new. Only you are aware of the clothes you are wearing.
“The same thing is true of an assumption. At first your reasoning mind and your outer senses will deny its existence, for your thoughts are new and haven’t been broken in yet. But when you wear your assumption long enough, it becomes comfortable and you feel its naturalness, then it will externalize itself as the world reflects the truth of what you have assumed.”
~ Neville Goddard
Stepping into new territory is always a bit daunting, my friend, simply because it’s unknown. But the only way to get to know it is to venture into it.
Who are you? Who do you want to be? What do you want to be? Try it on, my friend. You must try. If it’s something you want or think you want, you must simply give it a go. At least put your toe in the water.
If you just keep doing what you know you’re good at and not trying anything new, you’ll never grow. Nothing will ever change.
Yes, it’s safe and stable but your soul will never be satisfied with that. It’s here to expand. You’re here to expand!
Approach it like you would a yoga posture that you think you’ll never be able to do. It’s in the attempting that your body figures out what it needs to do. So try it on, my friend. Take the first step and see what happens!
