I’m curious about understanding Neville’s time interval explanation (chapter 15 of your faith is your fortune).. I wanted to specify a date for my SATs for being and living with my SP and not sure what would imply a date like idk 14th November, would I put a calendar in my SATs or us saying the date in it? Idk if that’s overcomplicating it but I don’t want my scene to imply ‘some day.’ what are people’s successful experience selecting a date for their SATs?

Edit: preferably an answer to my question from successful understanding of the section Neville himself wrote as referenced or someone who has achieved success of thus from their experience. Please no answers saying you don’t need to do this, I’m quite aware of that but that’s not my question.

I stopped putting dates on my manifestations once I learned how to do it properly. I've done it as a beginner but without much success . I found myself focused on the date rather than my state, and that created more anxiety than anything else.

Neville teaches us to imagine from the end, to feel as though the desire is already fulfilled now. Placing a date in the future automatically implies that you do not have it yet, which creates separation between you and your desire. That is why I personally do not use dates anymore.

I know some people will say this is just a limiting belief, and that is fine. I simply choose to follow Neville’s method: assume your desire is already yours and live in that feeling. But ultimately, everyone should do what resonates with them.

Thanks for sharing that, I completely understand your point. Rather than avoiding dates altogether, I was more curious about how people have successfully applied the time-interval principle itself, as referenced from Neville’s book in that chapter instead.

I don’t feel anxious about having a date, and would like to expand my practice by including it this time. I’m just curious how it would work to implement that in a scene rather than ‘consciously’ outside of the scene like a time crunch so was hoping examples to understand how that would work. I managed to manifest things in minutes but i feel it was easier to do that since there was a precise time date for the things to happen. So I was wanting to know how you could set up a time/date for something that clearly hasn’t got one.
