Keys to Inner Freedom: Act Like You Don’t Want Anyone’s Attention
Imagine being so true to your DIVINE NATURE that everything else becomes secondary, by Neville Goddard
I have long loved the teachings of Neville Goddard (1905 - 1972). You can find many excellent recordings of his lectures on YouTube and he has an abundance of books readily available.
I would like to highlight a most excellent audio lecture of his I recently came upon.
The wisdom here is timeless.
While there are a few in the Freedom Movement who remember to remind us of our divine powerful nature within. I feel we are not doing it nearly enough.
Please savor these words of wisdom. Take them to heart and live your life grandly, knowing the TRUTH of who you are.
This is what will truly radically and rapidly bring in the tipping point into the Great Awakening and the next evolutionary leap for humankind.

My dear friends our topic act like you don't want anyone's attention may seem paradoxical at first glance but I assure you it contains within it the very essence of manifestation and the key to unlocking your Divine potential
As we embark on this journey together I want you to suspend all preconceived notions about attention recognition and validation but
What I am about to share with you is
Beyond the surface level understanding of human behavior and delves deep into the spiritual realm of creation and manifestation
in the beginning was the word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. this eternal truth my dear friends is the foundation upon which we will build our understanding
For you see the Word is not merely a spoken utterance but it is the very essence of creation itself, it is the power of imagination, the force that shapes Reality
When we constantly seek attention from others we are in essence denying our own Divinity
We are looking outside of ourselves for validation for confirmation of our worth
When all along the Kingdom of Heaven is within us
By acting as if we don't want anyone's attention we are aligning ourselves with our true nature with the God within
Consider for a moment the story of creation. God did not create the world And then seek validation from his creation no he simply spoke and it was so
He imagined and it came to be. this my friends is the power that resides within each and every one of you.
You are made in the image and likeness of God and therefore you possess the same creative power
When you act as if you don't want anyone's attention you are mirroring this Divine attribute
You are declaring to the universe
I am complete
I am whole
I am sufficient unto Myself
And in doing so you are aligning yourself with the creative power of the universe
Now let's us delve deeper into the mechanics of this principle. When you seek attention you are operating from a state of lack. You're saying to the universe I am not enough as I am
I need others to validate my existence. This state of consciousness attracts more experiences that reinforce this feeling of Lack
it's a self-perpetuating cycle that keeps you trapped in a limited version of yourself, but
When you act as if you don't want anyone's attention you are operating from a state of abundance
You are saying I am complete, I am whole, I need nothing outside of myself
This state of consciousness attracts experiences that reinforce your sense of completeness and wholeness
You begin to manifest a reality that reflects your inner state of being my. Dear friends understand this
The World is You Pushed Out
Everything you Perceive in your Outer Reality is a Reflection of your Inner State
When you constantly seek attention you are projecting a state of neediness and lack onto the world around you. But when you act as if you don't need attention you project a state of completeness and self-sufficient
This is not to say that you should become a hermit or shun all human interaction. Rather it means that you
Interact with the world from a place of fullness rather than emptiness
Give of yourself freely
Not because you need something in return but because
You Are Overflowing with Abundance
🌟
Consider the SUN
It does not shine to gain attention or recognition. It shines because that is its nature. It gives light and warmth freely asking nothing in return and yet all life on Earth turns towards it, basks in its radiance and flourishes because of it
This my friends is how you should be in the world. Now some of you may be thinking but Neville how can I act as if I don't want attention when I feel a deep need for validation and to this I say
You must use your Divine gift of Imagination, for imagination is the bridge between your current state and your desired state
Close your eyes for a moment and imagine yourself moving through the world with complete self assurance
See yourself interacting with others from a place of inner peace and contentment
Feel the sense of wholeness and completeness that permeates your being
This is not something outside of you that you need to attain, it is your true nature, your Divine Inheritance
As you hold this image in your mind as you feel the reality of it you're impressing it upon your subconscious mind and your subconscious mind being the faithful servant that it is Will begin to bring this state into manifestation in your outer World
Remember my dear friends that
Your Consciousness is the only reality
What you assume to be true, what you feel to be real is what will manifest in your experience
When you Assume the feeling of being complete and whole, when you embody the state of not needing anyone's attention
You are setting in motion the forces that will bring this reality into manifestation
This principle applies to all areas of your life
In your relationships, when you act as if you don't need attention or validation from others you become magnetic. People are naturally drawn to those who are self assured and content within.
In your career, when you focus on doing excellent work for its own sake rather than for recognition, you often find that recognition comes naturally
But here's the key
You must persist in this new State of Consciousness
It's not enough to simply imagine it once and then revert to your old patterns of thinking and behavior
You must live from this new state consistently even when your outer circumstances haven't yet caught up with your inner reality
This my friends is what it means to live by faith, it's not about believing in something outside of yourself but about
Having faith in the power of your own Consciousness to shape your reality
It's about trusting in the law of assumption, knowing that what you assume to be true must and will manifest in your experience
Now let us address a common misconception
Acting as if you don't want attention doesn't mean becoming invisible or diminishing your light. On the contrary it means
Shining your light so brightly that you don't need to draw attention to it
It means being so secure in who you are that you don't need external validation
Think of the great spiritual teachers throughout history, they didn't seek attention or acclaim, they simply were who they were and the world was drawn to their Light
This is the power that resides within each of you, when you tap into your true nature, when you align with the God within, you naturally become a beacon of light in the world
My dear friends understand this stands from a misunderstanding of your true nature.
You seek attention because you believe you lack something, that you need something from the outside to complete you
But I tell you this,
You are already Complete, you are already Whole, you are already One with the Source of all Creation
When you truly grasp this truth, when you embody it in your Consciousness, the need for attention falls away naturally
You no longer seek validation from others because you understand that all the validation you need is already within you
You are the operant power in your life, you are the god of your Universe
Now some of you may be wondering, but Neville, won't acting as If I don't want attention make me less successful in life, and to this I say success is not about gaining attention or recognition from others
True success is about aligning with your Divine Nature and expressing it fully in the world
When you act from this place of alignment
When you move through the world as a complete and whole being
You naturally attract experiences that reflect this state of Being
You find yourself in the right place at the right time
Opportunities seem to fall into your lap
People are drawn to your energy and want to work with you. This is not because you're seeking attention or trying to impress others
It's because you're vibrating at a frequency that aligns with your highest good
You're in harmony with the creative forces of the universe and the universe responds in kind
Consider the story of Joseph in the Bible. He didn't seek attention or recognition. He simply did what was right regardless of his circumstances. Whether he was a slave or a prisoner
He acted with Integrity, in Excellence
And in due time he was elevated to a position of great power and influence
This my friends is the power of acting as if you don't want anyone's attention
It's about focusing on being your Best Self
On expressing your divine nature regardless of external circumstances
It's about trusting in the law of assumption knowing that your inner state will inevitably be reflected in your outer reality
Now let us delve even deeper into this principle. When you act as if you don't want anyone's attention
You are in essence surrendering your ego
You are letting go of the need to be seen, to be recognized, to be validated by others and
In this surrender you open yourself up to a higher power
You see my dear friends, the ego is like a veil that separates you from your true nature. It's the part of you that believes you are separate from God separate from the source of all creation
When you surrender this ego, when you let go of the need for attention and recognition
You remove this Veil, you allow your true nature, Your Divine Self, to shine through
This is what it means to die to your old self and be reborn, it's not a physical death but
A death of the ego, of the false self
That believes it needs validation from the outside world
And in this death you are reborn as your true self, as the God man that you truly are. When you operate from this place, when you act as if you don't want anyone's attention, you are
Allowing the God within you to express itself fully
You become a Clear Channel for Divine Inspiration
And Ideas flow through you effortlessly, creativity becomes your natural state of being
You find yourself guided to take actions that are in perfect alignment with your highest good
This my friends is the true meaning of success,
It's not about accumulating wealth or fame or power
It's about aligning with your divine nature and allowing it to express itself fully in the world and when you do this, when you act from this place of alignment, all those other things, wealth recognition influence tend to follow naturally
But here's the key
You must not seek these things for their own sake you must seek first the kingdom of God which is within
You must align with your true nature with the God within and when you do this, when you act as if you don't need anyone's attention, because you are already complete and whole
All these things will be added unto you
Now some of you may be thinking, but Neville, this sounds too good to be true, surely it can't be this simple, and to this I say
The truth is always simple, it's our human minds that complicate things
The law of assumption, the principle of acting as if, is as simple and as natural as breathing, just as you don't have to think about how to breathe you don't have to struggle to apply this principle
You simply need to assume the state of being complete and whole, of not needing anyone's attention
You need to feel it is real to live from that state consistently and as you do this you will find your outer world naturally aligning with this inner State
Remember my dear friends that creation is finished, all possible states already exist
When you act as if you don't want anyone's attention
You are not creating a new state
You are simply selecting a state that already exists and stepping into it
You're choosing to occupy a version of reality where you are already complete and whole
This is the power of your imagination
It is the power to select from INFINITE POSSIBILITIES and make them your reality
When you imagine yourself as someone who doesn't need attention, who is secure in their own being
You are selecting that version of yourself from the infinite versions that exist
And as you persist in this state, as you live from it consistently, it becomes your reality
Now you may find that old habits of seeking attention die hard, you may catch yourself falling back into patterns of neediness or validation seeking
When this happens, do not judge yourself harshly, simply observe it, acknowledge it and then
Consciously choose again
Remember you are in the
Process of transformation, you are shifting from one state of consciousness to another
This shift doesn't always happen overnight, it requires
Persistence, Patience and above all Faith in the Law of Assumption
Each time you catch yourself seeking attention use it as an opportunity to reaffirm your new state
Say to yourself I remember when I used to seek attention But
Now I Know that I am Complete and Whole Within Myself
In doing so you are rewriting your subconscious patterns and reinforcing your new state of being
My dear friends understand
The world is a mirror reflecting back to you your own Consciousness
When you consistently act as if you don't want anyone's attention
When you live from a state of completeness and wholeness
The world will begin to reflect this back to you
You will find that people treat you differently
They will respect you more, value your opinions more highly, seek out your company more often. This is not because you've done anything to impress them or gain their attention.
It's simply because you're radiating a different energy.
You're vibrating at a higher frequency and people naturally respond to this energy often without even knowing why
Consider the great spiritual teachers throughout history, they didn't seek followers or try to impress anyone, they simply embodied their Truth, lived from their divine nature and people were naturally drawn to them, sensing the power and authenticity of their being
This my friends is
The Power that resides within each of you
When you act as if you don't want anyone's attention, when you live from a place of inner completeness, you become like these great teachers
You become a light in the world not because you're trying to be but because it's your natural state of being
Now let us take this principle even further
When you act as if you don't want anyone's attention you are in essence practicing detachment
You are detaching from the outcomes of your actions, from the opinions of others, from the need for external validation
This detachment is not indifference, it's not about not caring, rather it's about
Caring so deeply about being true to your divine nature that everything else becomes secondary
It's about being so aligned with your inner truth that external opinions and validations lose their power over you
In this state of Detachment you find True Freedom
You're no longer bound by the opinions of others or the need for their approval
You are free to express your divine nature fully without fear or hesitation and in this Freedom you find your greatest power
You see my dear friends, when you are not bound by the need for attention or approval
You are free to take risks to be creative
To express yourself authentically
You are free to follow your intuition
To pursue your true calling without worrying about what others might think
This freedom is the birthright of every human being, it's the natural state of the god man that you truly are
When you act as if you don't want anyone's attention you are reclaiming this Birthright, you are stepping into your true power as a Divine being
Now some of you may be wondering, but Neville, acting as if I don't want attention won’t it make me seem aloof or I'm not caring and to this I say quite the opposite,
When you're not seeking Attention for yourself you're free to give your full attention to others
Think about it, when you're constantly seeking attention your focus is on yourself, you're thinking about how you're being perceived, whether you're making a good impression, whether the people are noticing you, but when you let go of this need for attention
You're free to truly see and hear others
In this state
You become
A better listener
A more empathetic friend
A more effective leader
You're able to connect with others on a deeper level
Because you're not distracted by your own need for validation
You are present, fully engaged in the moment, fully focused on the person in front of you
This my friends is true charisma, it's not about drawing attention to yourself but about being so present, so authentic, that people are naturally drawn to you.
It's about being so secure in yourself that you can give your full attention to others without needing anything in return
As we near the end of our time together, I want to leave you with this thought.
Acting as if you don't want anyone's attention is not about becoming invisible or diminishing your light
It's about shining so brightly from within that you don't need external sources to illuminate you
It's about knowing, truly knowing, that
You are
Already complete
Already whole
Already One with the Source of all Creation
It's about living from this knowing, embodying it in every thought, every word, every action
When you do this, when you act from this place of inner completeness
You become a powerful force in the world
Not because you're seeking to be but because it's the natural expression of your true nature, so go forth my dear friends and practice this principle, act as if you don't want anyone's attention.
Live from a place of Inner completeness and wholeness trust in the law of assumption knowing that as you assume this state it must and will manifest in your outer reality
Remember you are the operant power in your life, you are the god of your universe
As you think and feel and assume so shall your world be
Choose wisely, choose consciously and watch as your world transforms before your very eyes
And above all have faith, faith in your divine nature, faith in the power of your Consciousness to shape your reality
For with faith all things are possible, thank you my dear friends for your attention in your presence
May you go forth and live from the God within you, shining your light brightly in the world, not for attention or claim, but because it is your true nature to do so
God bless you all
