Neville Goddard on self-concept

“The corner-stone on which all things are based is mans concept of himself.”

“He acts as he does, and has the experiences that he does, because his concept of himself is what it is, and for no other reason.”

“The part you play on the world’s stage is determined by your conception of yourself.”

“Take a noble concept of yourself, something noble, something wonderful, something that you would like to live with, assume that you are it, and walk as though you were”

“You never attract that which you want, but always attract that which you are conscious of being.”

“For your conviction of yourself — your opinion of yourself — will determine your expression in life.”

“I am an immortal being conceiving myself as man and forming worlds in the likeness and image of my concept of self.”

“Your conception of yourself as you fall asleep is the seed you drop into the ground of the subconscious.”

“Had he a different concept of himself, he would act differently and have different experiences.”

“If you see them as you formerly saw them, you have not changed your concept of self, for all changes of concepts of self result in a changed relationship to your world.”

“For the world is a magnified mirror, magnifying everything that you are conscious of being.”

“your concept of yourself is not the most perfect concept that it could be, but that being conceiving, which is yourself, is the Lord, that is God, that is the Father.”

“In short, you express and have only that which you are conscious of being or possessing.”

“In becoming it, the old man dies and all that was related to that former concept of self dies with it.”

“In sleep, man impresses the subconscious with his conception of himself.”

“For LAW is never violated, and you can rest confidently in the knowledge that every man’s conception of himself is going to be his reward.”

“You are at this very moment drawing into your world that which you are now conscious of being.”

“You will so bury the past by remaining faithful to your new concept of Self that you will defy the whole vast future to find where you buried it.”
