I recently heard a quote on a Joe Rogan podcast about scripting that I found both motivational and deeply practical from a mystical point of view. When we begin to awaken from the dream we call life, we no longer dwell regretfully on the past or look wistfully toward the future. We start to understand that as the architects and directors of our own experiences, we hold the power to shape our reality. Through imagination, we create every experience, good or bad. This realization empowers us and sets us free. It reminds us that we can live our lives as the stars of our own movie.

“Live your life like your the hero in your movie. Right now is when the movie starts. Your in the part of the movie that if your in a dark place right now , pretend that now is the start of the movie, your in a shit bag but you turn it around.” JOE ROGAN 

Scripting and Creating The Movie Scene of Your Desire:

Who doesn’t love a great hero story? In most films, the protagonist’s journey follows an arc much like real life. At some point in the story, the hero often experiences a fall from grace or faces disappointment. They may encounter overwhelming odds, a major challenge, or a difficult setback. Yet it is through overcoming this adversity that the hero develops strength, builds character, and ultimately triumphs.

If you are currently in a challenging situation, this could be a powerful turning point in your own epic tale. Shifting your perspective during tough times can transform feelings of helplessness into empowerment and resilience. Right now, you can begin writing the perfect script for your desired outcome. As the title suggests, let’s turn your life into a movie. You get to direct the scenes and write the dialogue for your incredible future. In this story, you are the central figure who fulfills your destiny and achieves your dreams.

While it may sound like a creative exercise, fully embracing this idea can become a practical and transformative tool for your life. By viewing your challenges as part of your personal story, you gain clarity, strength, and a more positive outlook for overcoming whatever you are facing today.

SCRIPT THE MOVIE OF YOUR FUTURE LIFE:

The Title:

This is the starting point and gives you focus on what your goal is. Your title can be simple and straightforward forward e.g.,’ Losing my excess weight’ or perhaps something even more aspirational like ” getting my dream job’ in any case, it’s fine as long as your title sets out a clear intention or outcome. It could be the solution to an issue you’re facing right now or the fruition of a long-held dream. Your desire or intended outcome; the end result is where you must begin. Determine what it is that you want. Place no condition, no limitation, and most importantly, do not consider the how.

The Protagonist:

Obviously, this is you, the hero. The story starts today, because you’re here now, and the turning point in your movie is just beginning. Just understand that, like all superheroes, you have special powers. What powers? The power of imagination. Yes, believe it or not, you’ve always possessed the talent to become anything you imagine yourself to be. To the intellectual, this may seem farcical, but the foundation of the. The aw of Assumption teaches that each of us is imbued with the only creative power in the universe, the imagination. By imaginatively scripting your future, you are harnessing this power and beginning to determine future events. As you first begin to awaken, you will realize that up until now, you’ve been unconsciously misusing this power.

Only through practice and overcoming trials and adversities will you develop proficiency and efficacy. eventually you’ll learn to wholeheartedly put your trust in this divine talent. 

The Jeopardy:

“To try to make this world a nice, sweet little place, in which we are all happy and have enough to eat and drink is fine, but that hasn’t a thing to do with the mystery of Christ. Were there no struggle, no effort would be made to awaken from the dream of life. Rather, the sleeper would fall deeper into sleep.” Neville Goddard

Now, no hero story would be complete without jeopardy, I mean, no epic tale is ever straightforward forward right?. You can’t have a testimony without a test. So choose to see the predicament, setback, or challenge you are experiencing right now as an extremely powerful moment in your epic movie called life, especially if it is the very thing that has motivated you to investigate conscious creating.

I know for myself, this whole experience has been a continuing journey of self-discovery. But upon reflection, I now look back upon the rock bottom place where I once was as being a really powerful and pivotal moment in my life. Why? Because it became my catalyst, my springboard to seek the truth and expand my consciousness. Upon reflection, I can honestly say I wouldn’t be writing this article today if it weren’t for that low point.

In my desperation to free myself from the undesired state I found myself in, my purpose was fueled. My desire to learn more about the power of imagination and, more importantly,y how it could save me became an obsession. When I was at that point, it compelled me to “go all in” as they say, and to actually apply the knowledge I was acquiring.

So, back to your movie, yes, you are the hero, whatever your current predicament, situation, or adversity, remember this is only a state and the super power you already possess (even though you may not believe it yet ), the powers of imagination will allow you to move and shift out of the undesired state and into your solution. The only thing, like most heroes in the movie, is that you’re going to have to go through a trial period of learning and evolving.

The Crescendo 

Remember, you are the writer of your own story. This is the moment where you create a scene that reflects the solution to your current challenge. As mentioned before, you are now learning to use this creative power within you.

Put on your limitless hat and imagine any scene you desire. What would you experience? Who would you meet? What would they say if your wishes had already come true? You do not need to know how everything will happen or how you will move from where you are to where you want to be. That is the beauty of working with this powerful law. Go straight to the end result and create in your imagination a scene that shows your desire already fulfilled.

Some people may find this difficult, especially if they are used to needing all the answers before trusting the process. You must let go of that limiting habit. This hesitation comes from the ego, which keeps you tied to your current circumstances. In every great story, the hero faces an inner struggle. Awakening the creative power within you requires breaking free from the grip of the ego, which has been in control for most of your life and does not give up easily.

I mention this because it is the point where many people give up. If you truly want to live your life as the hero of your own movie, this is the one challenge you must overcome. Do not worry about how it will happen. Simply create a scene in your imagination that shows your wish fulfilled.

Supporting Characters:

Before you imagine, take a moment and clarify the form your imaginal act will take. Are you giving a celebration party, or is he? Who will be there? Fill the room with those who would want to share in the celebration. Raise your glass and say:

“here’s to your fabulous, your salary increase, and the challenge of your greater responsibility… Just go to the end ” Neville Goddard

All great movies have a cast of supporting characters who help move the story forward and interact with the hero throughout their journey. In your life’s movie, these supporting roles are played by your friends, family, and peers. They are an essential part of your story because, as you learn to shape your life and design future events, they will naturally become part of your experience.

Your closest family members are often the easiest to imagine because you know their voices, expressions, and gestures so well. As I sit here writing this, I can easily picture my brother speaking to me. He has unknowingly starred in so many of my imaginary scenes. Creating a scene that includes him feels simple and natural. This is important because the more natural and believable the scene feels, the stronger the impression it makes on the subconscious mind.

In your own imaginal scene, think about what your supporting characters would say or do to confirm that your desire has already come true. For instance, if you have lost those unwanted pounds, you might imagine your partner walking up to you with a big smile, giving you a fist bump, and saying, “Wow, I haven’t seen you fit into those jeans for years. You look amazing!” The key is to keep the scene creative, familiar, and realistic.

I encourage you to embrace scripting as a tool for rewriting your reality. Through scripting, you activate your imagination and set a clear intention for what you wish to manifest. Once you have written your scene with dialogue and setting, the next step is to imagine it repeatedly until it begins to feel vivid and real.

Ready Action!:

Now that you have completed scripting your scene, it’s time to put it into practice. Find a quiet place, close your eyes, and spend a few minutes imagining the scene you created. See yourself making new choices, speaking, laughing, and interacting with others as you experience your wish fulfilled. Make the colors brighter, the details sharper, and the emotions stronger. When you open your eyes, feel good about taking control of your life. Do not dismiss what you have just done, because if you have full faith in that simple imaginal scene, it will eventually become a real experience.

Continue to imagine the scene over and over until it starts to feel real. Once you reach that point, simply live with the belief that it will come true, because it will. Imagination and faith are all you need. A disciplined imagination can create anything you desire.

If you study Neville Goddard’s teachings closely, you will notice how much importance he placed on the practice he called “Going Into The Silence.” This was his way of training the mind’s eye through regular imaginative exercises. He ended every lecture with this instruction and wrote about it consistently in his books. His many successes stand as living proof of the power that comes from practicing and strengthening this creative faculty.

Neville’s Instructions:

Neville himself gave similar instructions in creating a movie scene in one of his books, only he likened this process to that of a stage play. In his famous book Seedtime and Harvest, Chapter 2 – The Four Mighty Ones, he compares the four creative functions of the mind to the four most important characters in the production of a play. The producer, the author, the director, and the actor are all integral in a movie production, and he tells us how we can replicate this when we use our imagination.

“the drama of life is a joint effort of the four quarters of the human soul…All that you behold is a visual construction contrived to express a theme which has been dramatized, rehearsed and performed elsewhere” NEVILLE GODDARD

The chapter is a terrific additional instruction on how this can be applied in everyday life this in the real drama of life. It’s a terrific book, and if you haven’t done so already, then I encourage you to read it. There’s a link to a free PDF copy of this book.

Live As If It’s Real

I want you to understand that trying to live your dream life without first creating it in your consciousness is a lost cause. Your commitment to expanding your awareness and manifesting your desires is truly admirable. However, it is essential that you train your imagination daily so it aligns with what you wish to experience.

To live your life as though it were a movie, that story must first be imagined. Only after the seed is planted in your consciousness can it manifest physically in your world. You may be facing a difficult situation right now, an unwanted circumstance, or a sense of frustration about your inability to change your current reality. Do not lose hope, because these are simply states of being. By using the power of your imagination, you can move from an undesired state into one that reflects your goals and solutions.

Like every hero in a great story, you will go through moments of testing, learning, and growth. Yet, in the end, you will rise above your challenges and achieve victory, just as every true hero does.
