Whenever your feeling is in conflict with your wish, feeling will be the victor.
Neville GoddardRead
To be conscious of being poor while praying for riches is to be rewarded with that which you are conscious of being, namely, poverty. Prayers to be successful must be claimed and appropriated. Assume the positive consciousness of the thing desired.
Interpretation
What this quote means
Being aware of your current situation while wishing for something better can keep you trapped in that situation. To achieve success, you must mentally accept it as already yours.
Neville Goddard emphasizes the importance of mindset in the process of manifesting desires. When one is focused on their current state of poverty while desiring wealth, they inadvertently reinforce their existing state rather than transforming it. The quote suggests that to genuinely attract success, one must adopt a positive mindset and fully embody the consciousness of possessing what they desire, thus aligning their thoughts and beliefs with their aspirations.

And if_x000D_ you do not change their activity, the conditions of your life cannot_x000D_ change, for they are only bearing witness to the inner action of your_x000D_ mind.
