Feeling Is The Secret

Feeling Is the Secret is a book by Neville Goddard, first published in 1944. This compact classic explains why your inner life — especially the feelings you cultivate — directly shapes your outer world. Goddard argues that deliberate feeling, carried into the subconscious through imagination and sustained belief, is the operative force behind manifestation.

The book breaks the process down into clear, practical steps for making your wishes real: control your thinking, fix the feeling of the wish fulfilled, and use the state just before sleep and in prayer to impress the subconscious. Readers drawn to manifestation, the law of attraction, and the creative power of imagination will find this a concentrated manual rather than a long theory.

Neville links feeling to the subconscious mind and shows how visualization, assumption, and the discipline of inner experience produce measurable shifts in relationships, finances, and personal circumstances. The writing is spare but insistent: change your inner state and the outer world will follow.

Short, direct exercises and memorable aphorisms make this one of Neville’s most accessible works for anyone interested in personal development, spiritual self-help, or practical techniques for manifestation. It’s especially useful for people who prefer action-oriented mental practices — focused imagination, nightly affirmation, and the conscious habit of feeling as if your desire is already accomplished.
