Step by Step Guide - How To Shift Your Concept Of Self

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to shift your concept of self to change your reality, drawing from the principles of the Law of Assumption and the practical application of Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).

1. Accept Consciousness as the Only Reality

The first step is accepting that "Consciousness is the one and only reality".
Circumstances, people, and events are not independent facts; they are the "outpicturing" of your state of awareness.

  • The Cause: There is no "secondary cause." You are not a victim of fate or other people; your world is entirely the result of your own consciousness.
  • The "I AM": Your "I AM" is the first cause-substance. When you say "I am poor" or "I am unwanted," you are defining the arrangement of your world. To change the world, you must change how you define "I AM".

2. Identify and Release the "Old Man" (Old Story)

You cannot put "new wine into old bottles." To become the person you want to be, you must completely drop the personality and beliefs of the person you no longer wish to be.

  • Observe Your Reactions: To discover your current concept of self, observe your reactions to life. Your automatic reactions reveal where you live psychologically.
  • Use EFT to Release: Find specific EFT scripts/Videos to help you release the "Old Story." This involves acknowledging your current feelings (fear, doubt, unworthiness) and choosing to let them go.
  • Example: "I am choosing to release this old identity right now... I let go of the self who believed in limitation".
  • Target Specific Blocks: It's helpful to identify the specific "mask" or identity you are wearing, such as "The Victim," "The Waiter" (waiting for the 3D to change), or "The Seeker" (who is always looking but never finding).

3. Install the New Identity (The Law of Assumption)

Once you have released the old story, you must assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled. This is not just wishing; it is a radical psychological transformation where you become the person who already has your desire.

  • Assume the Feeling: You must feel yourself right into the situation of your answered prayer. Ask yourself, "How would I feel were my wish realised?" and let that feeling monopolise your attention.
  • Ignore the Evidence of the Senses: You must deny the evidence of your senses and assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled even if the 3D world contradicts it. This is often referred to as "Brazen Impudence"—refusing to take "no" for an answer from the world of facts.
  • EFT for Installation: Use tapping to anchor this new state.
  • Example: "I am choosing a new identity right now. I am the version of me who already has my desire... My assumption has already hardened into fact".

4. There Is No One to Change But Self

If you are struggling with a specific person (SP) or a relationship, you must realise that "there is no one to change but self".

  • Everyone is You Pushed Out (EIYPO): People in your world only reflect your internal beliefs. If you feel disrespected or unwanted, they must reflect that. To change them, you must change your concept of yourself to one who is "chosen," "prioritised," and "cherished" 
  • Stop Trying to Change the Mirror: Trying to force others to change is as fruitless as breaking a mirror because you don't like your reflection. Change your own face (consciousness), and the mirror must change

 

5. Persistence

You must remain faithful to your new concept of self. You cannot be the new person for a moment and then return to the old reactions.

  • Frequency: It is the frequency of returning to the feeling of the wish fulfilled that makes it natural. You must wear the new feeling until it becomes your nature.
  • Do Not Check the 3D: Stop looking for proof in the outside world. Waiting for proof confirms you do not have it. You must accept that your inner assumption is the reality.

By systematically releasing the old identity through EFT and persistently assuming the feeling of the new identity, your "assumption, though false, if persisted in will harden into fact".

Nice simple step by step one for you guys today.

Brazen Impudence — Neville's Term for Unshakeable Persistence

There's a phrase Neville used that doesn't get talked about nearly enough: brazen impudence.

It sounds bold. Shameless, even. And honestly, that's exactly what it is.

What it actually means

Brazen impudence is the refusal to take no for an answer — not from other people, not from circumstances, and not from the 3D world showing you the opposite of what you want.

It's the psychological stance of someone who has decided something is true and won't be moved from it. Not through force or white-knuckling. Through bold, unwavering persistence in the new story.

Neville pulled this from the original meaning of the word importunity in scripture — which, when translated properly, literally means brazen impudence. The parable it comes from is about someone who keeps knocking on a door at midnight, refusing to leave without what they came for. That quality of shameless inner persistence is what he was pointing to.

What it looks like in practice

It doesn't mean fighting against what you see in the 3D. It's more grounded than that.

It means when your senses say it's not here yet, you don't accept that as the final word. You return to the inner state that says it's done. Not anxiously. Not desperately. With the quiet confidence of someone who has already decided.

The 3D can do whatever it wants. Your job is to hold the assumption with the kind of boldness that doesn't need external confirmation to stay standing.

Where people drift

The moment you glance at the mirror and let it update your inner state — that's where brazen impudence slips. You had the new story, the circumstances looked the same, and you quietly shifted back to the old one.

Neville described it as falling off the colt. You were riding the assumption, and then you looked back. That's all it takes.

Brazen impudence is the quality that keeps you on. Not because you're forcing it, but because you've decided — and that decision is held with enough boldness that doubt simply doesn't get a foothold.

The energy behind it

There's a shamelessly confident quality to this state. You're not desperate. You're not anxious. You're not waiting for permission from the 3D to believe what you've already decided is true.

That's what Neville meant by habitual occupancy of the wish fulfilled. You live there. You return there without apology. You don't leave just because reality hasn't caught up yet.

The 3D always catches up. The only variable is how boldly you hold the inner state while it does.

So hold it. Shamelessly. Persistently.

You Are Greater Than Any State (or Desire)

Here's a visual I want you to sit with for a second.

Picture yourself holding the entire world in the palm of your hand. Every person, every circumstance, every desire, all of it right there. You are the source of everything that appears in your 3D.

Now, from that vantage point — does your desire feel bigger than you?

It can't be. Because it's coming from you.

You Are the God of Your Reality

Neville was clear on this. You are not a small human trying to reach something that exists out there beyond you. You are the operant power. The creator. Everything in your 3D — every single thing — originates from your consciousness.

Which means nothing in your reality gets to be greater than you. Not a person. Not a sum of money. Not a relationship. Not any desire, no matter how big it feels.  YOU are the one making it important or special or putting it right up there on the pedestal.

You are making your desire seem this big :

(((((((((((((((((((((((((((Massive thing))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

While you are thinking, you are this big:

((You))

The moment you see yourself as the source, the whole dynamic shifts. Your desire stops being this towering thing you have to earn your way toward. It becomes something that simply belongs in your world because you put it there.

It Was Never About the Desire

The subject was always your conception of yourself.

When you know yourself as the one who creates — rather than the one who waits and hopes — your desire becomes ordinary. Normal. Just another thing in your reality, the way your phone is just sitting on the bench without you marvelling at it.

Neville said the time it takes for an assumption to manifest is directly proportionate to how natural it feels to already have it. Not thrilling. Not a milestone. Just yours.

That naturalness doesn't come from convincing yourself harder. It comes from remembering who you actually are.

You are greater than any state, not some powerless being.

Conditioning Your Desires — And Why It Could Be Keeping You Stuck

You know what quietly keeps desires on hold? The invisible rules you've attached to them.

This is what we call conditioning your desires. Any "I have to first" or "it won't work unless" — these are conditions you've placed between yourself and what you want. And because it's law of assumption, they work perfectly. The condition becomes the assumption, and the assumption becomes the reality.

What it looks like in practice

See how many of these feel familiar:

  • I have to feel it real before it will manifest
  • I have to reach Sabbath otherwise it won't work
  • I have to feel "safe" to manifest
  • I need to do nervous system regulation first
  • I have to see movement or a sign before I believe it's working
  • I have to lose weight before I'm ready for the relationship I want
  • I have to be completely healed first
  • I need to affirm enough times before my subconscious will accept it
  • I have to clear all my blocks first
  • I have to "FEEL" insert any feeling here before I will believe it
  • I have to feel deserving of it
  • I have to detach and stop wanting it before it shows up
  • I have to feel certain or be in the KNOWING — any doubt means it's not working
  • I need to do the technique perfectly every single night
  • I have to have the perfect mental diet

Every single one of these is just another assumption. One that says your desire isn't available to you right now.   These are just some examples, the list could be thousands.

The truth of it

Neville said: "You are already that which you want to be, and your refusal to believe this is the only reason you do not see it."

There is no checklist. There is no process to complete first. Creation is finished. All realities already exist. Your only job is to choose the one you want and accept it as yours — now, not after you've ticked every box.

You are the I AM. God didn't say "let there be light, once conditions are met." There was just light.

The conditions you've placed on your desires aren't requirements. They're assumptions. And like every other assumption, they'll keep showing up in your reality for as long as you hold them.

Drop the conditions. Claim it now.
