You Are A Movie Studio
When I was a kid growing up in the fifties and early to mid sixties, big screen movies were still the “main event” of filmed acting. Television was definitely encroaching on the domain of the movies but tv was still in its small screen, black and white only, tv antenna required, just three networks stage. The big movie studios – MGM, Warner Brothers, Paramount, 20th Century Fox, Universal, Columbia – controlled over 90 % of movies produced and distributed. Today’s “big five” – Disney, Paramount, Sony, Universal and Warner Brothers still hold about 75 % of the market. Many more movies today are made independently of the big movie studios. Many movies are going directly to streaming services and never make it to the big screen. Movie-making is an ever adapting industry.
Were you aware that Y-O-U are your own independent movie studio? Right now, you have the ability to “finance” a movie, write a movie screenplay, direct and star in your own movie. “Financing” your movie is 100 % guaranteed. As the producer you get to control every aspect of the movie. As the screenwriter, you get to create a script that fits in perfectly with the type of movie that you want to make. As director, you are entitled to oversee and guide all the actors in the movie. As the star of the movie, you get to display the full range of your acting skills and emotions.
What The Heck Is He Talking About?
By this point you are probably wondering what in the world I am talking about. There is no way in the world that you have the money and resources to make a movie. You say that you do not know the first thing about producing, screenwriting, directing and acting. I am going to go ahead and respectfully contradict you on all counts. You do possess the resources. You do know everything that you need to know about screenwriting, directing and acting. Read on.
First, your financing and resources as the producer come forth from your unlimited, inherent Imagination. Your Imagination has the ability to create any type of movie action that you choose. Your Imagination is the financing. Your budget is large, only restricted by the level of your faith. Everyone has access to Imagination but you have to make the free will choice to activate it.
Second, if you know how to read and write, that is all the skill you require to be the screenwriter for you movie. It is your movie. You get to choose whatever words you want the actors to say. You choose the scenario. What is it that you want in your life? Money? A relationship of some sort? Career Success? Good Health? The ability to help a loved one? Choose what you want. Imagine a scene or scenes that portray the successful receiving of your chosen desire. Does it involve just you or does your movie scene involve one or more other people? Just write down what you would be saying and what the other person or persons would be saying in the “real-ization” of your desire fulfilled. Put it in the form of a script.
I will present an example of a short two minute movie scene. Just make whatever words you choose words that you yourself BELIEVE with all your heart and mind.
You: I am so thankful that what I really wanted has finally come true in my life. I always knew it would happen and now it has.
Other Person: I have to admit that I thought you were really wasting your time with all this manifesting jazz. I was even kinda worried your were living in some sort of fantasy land. Even you have to admit that it didn’t look too good for you.
Third person: I’m guilty too. Don’t get me wrong – I am really happy for you that you got your breakthrough, I really am. But I hope you don’t down us for thinking that it wasn’t going to happen for you.
You: Are either of you familiar with the bible verse in Hebrews 11 about faith?
Second Person: Not really.
Third Person: Well I guess it’s something about faith.
You: It defines what faith is. It goes like this – Faith is the assurance of the unseen. Real simple. Let me give you the definition of the word “assurance”. It means certain to be achieved. Ya know, circumstances do not matter. Only state of being matters. By that I mean even though my outer eyes couldn’t see it, my inner eyes, my Imagination always saw it as clear as day. If you totally “have something on the inside” then, in due time, you are totally assured of it happening on the outside. The one big BUT is if you allow doubt to sneak in and rock the boat and throw it off course.
Thirdly, as director, you decide precisely how all three people in that scene play their roles. Pauses of speech, tone of speech, choice of feeling, etc.
Fourthly, as the star actor, you hear your voice, you feel the emotions, you hear and respond to the other actors lines, you feel the surroundings of where it takes place, you see all the accompanying “props” used in the scene. For example, if your desire is money, you look at the bank statement that confirms the money you are in possession of. If your desire is better health, you look at the hospital discharge report that confirms your healing. As an actor, use all of your senses to be in total union with your part.
When you completely feel something as real, and persist in that feeling, things definitely happen to materialize that feeling. One of the careers that I have had in this lifetime was that of an undercover operative. My “cover” in that endeavor was something that I got so “into” as far as my belief that it was real that after I proceeded to another career, it was in the industry that I had chosen as my cover.
An Honest To Goodness Real Life Example
In 2005, I started feeling knee pain in both knees. When I got a thorough orthopedic exam, the physician said that I would probably have to have knee replacement surgery within five years. I blew past 2010 but as the years progressed, he knees were slowly becoming more and more of a challenge. As 2022 arrived, I finally resolved to get at least one of the knees replaced at some point later this year after I finished manifesting some things in other areas of living. Although it is possible, and I have successfully done it, it is difficult to manifest many different desires simultaneously. So I decided to just keep it simple and uncomplicated. I did not do the “my knees feel like they did when I was twenty” movie. I choose to do the “my knees really feel better” movie. How this was going to come about I didn’t know and didn’t care. For about a month I just spent that golden two minutes a day living in my movie while I relaxed on the hydromassage chair at my local Planet Fitness. Halfway through that month I developed a bad toothache. I wear full dentures but my dentist advised me to keep my remaining tooth roots to maintain gum integrity. As he is now retired, I had to find a new dentist. After taking x-rays, she saw extensive infection of various tooth roots and recommended extracting all thirteen teeth stubs. She said the infection was releasing chemicals into the body that were detrimental to my health. My dental insurance covered 70 % while the dentist agreed to waive the 30 % co-pay, so I said “OK, let’s get them out.” One week she extracted six on the top and the next week she took out the seven on the bottom. Not more than 48 hours after the last of the infected teeth were removed, I was delighted to observe that my knees felt better then they have in quite a while. Both were still “bone-on-bone” but they definitely feel better. My assumption is that unknown to me, the release of chemicals from the underlying tooth infection was negatively affecting my knee joints. This past Saturday I was conversing with my son about how delighted I was that my knees felt better all of a sudden. It’s almost eerie how this manifesting stuff works. The two minute movie that was real to me in my Imagination had crystallized into my outer reality through my getting a toothache.
Circumstances do not matter. Only state of being matters.
