Take a deep breath with me for a moment.
Imagine it is a quiet evening at the very end of 2027. The house is still. You have a warm cup of tea beside you, and you are looking back over the year that has just passed.
And you smile.
Because it was the year things changed.
The year you stopped hoping and started becoming.
The year that felt, finally, like yours.
Here is the gentle secret: you can write that evening down today. Not as resolutions you will forget by February, but as a memory.
This is what I call your winner’s script. It is a short story about your 2027, written in the past tense, from the end of the year looking back. In this guide, I will walk beside you through how to write it, how to feel it real, and how to live from it all year long, the way Neville Goddard taught.
Let’s begin.
🌙 What Is a Winner’s Script?
A winner’s script is a page in your journal where you describe the coming year as if it is already complete, written by the version of you who has lived it.
It is not a to-do list.
It is not a demand.
It is not a test you can fail.
Think of it as a love letter to your future, written from the point of view that it is already here. In my book, I describe scripting as writing the movie of your life as if your desire has already happened. A winner’s script simply stretches that movie across a whole year.
Your script does not need to sound poetic or perfect. It only needs to sound like you.
✨ Why Write It in the Past Tense?
Most of us write goals like this: “I want to…”, “I hope to…”, “This year I will try to…”
Every one of those sentences quietly says, “I don’t have it yet.”
Neville Goddard taught that we do not move towards our desire by staring at it from a distance. We move into it by assuming it is already done, and then thinking and feeling from that place.
“It is one thing to think of the end and another thing to think from the end. To think from the end, to enact the end, is to create reality.”
Neville Goddard, The Law and the Promise
When you write “I was so grateful the day we moved in” instead of “I hope we can move one day”, something softens inside you. Your mind gets a “future memory” to hold, and the dream starts to feel normal instead of far away.
From “I hope 2027 is my year.”
To “2027 was my year, and I am so thankful.”
That small change of tense is a big change of identity.
🌿 Before You Begin: Look Back Gently First
It is much easier to write next year as done when you have honoured this one. If you have not done it yet, I would gently suggest spending an evening with my Year-End Life Audit first, or choosing one of the 5 gentle year-end rituals.
A life review changed a lot for me. When my 52nd birthday came, I found myself asking, “Have I lived a meaningful life? What have I created, learned, given, and overcome?” Those questions led me to write my book. Looking back honestly is often what shows us clearly what we want to write next.
Before you pick up your pen, ask yourself: What do I want to feel more of next year? And what would make 2027 feel like a new chapter, not a repeat?
🌸 How to Write Your 2027 Winner’s Script: 6 Gentle Steps
1. Choose your moment at the end of the year
Pick a scene to write from, such as New Year’s Eve 2027, curled up on the sofa.
Start your page with a line that places you there:
“It is the last evening of 2027, and I am looking back with a full heart.”
2. Write as your future self, in the past tense
Now describe the year as it happened. Use “I was”, “I did”, “we celebrated”, “I remember”. Keep it simple. Short sentences are perfect.
If the past tense feels strange at first, that is normal. Keep going.
3. Pour in the feeling
The words are the doorway, but the feeling is the room. Neville taught that feeling is the secret.
So don’t just write “I paid off my debts.” Write how it felt: “I remember the lightness in my chest when I made the last payment. I actually laughed out loud in the kitchen.”
If you would like to go deeper, my guide to Feeling Is the Secret is a lovely companion to this step.
4. Add small, real details
Details make a scene feel true. The smell of the new kitchen. The sound of the sea on the trip you finally took. The cup you drink your tea from in your new home.
5. Include your whole life, not only money
A winner’s year is not only a number in the bank. Let your script hold the whole of your life:
- your health and energy
- love, family and friendships
- your home and the way it feels
- your work, creativity and purpose
- money, freedom and generosity
- peace, faith and calm expectation
You may notice that what you really want is a feeling: relief, freedom, safety, joy. Write those feelings in.
6. End with gratitude, and let it be done
Close your script with thanks, as if everything has already arrived. A simple ending is perfect:
“Thank you, thank you, thank you for this beautiful year. It is done.”
Then close your journal. No checking, no worrying about how. The “how” is not your job.
💛 Example Winner’s Script Lines to Inspire You
Here are some example lines you can borrow, change, or simply use as a starting point. Please make them yours: your home, your people, your words.
- “2027 was the year I finally felt calm about money. I stopped checking my balance with a knot in my stomach.”
- “I remember the morning I signed the papers for our home. The sun was coming through the window and I could not stop smiling.”
- “We took the trip we had talked about for years. I still remember the warm air and the taste of that first evening meal.”
- “I was able to help my family without fear. Giving felt joyful, not stressful.”
- “Looking back, I can see that everything that happened this year was for my growth and advancement.”
And here is a short example of how a full script might flow. For example, imagine a woman called Clare writing hers on the first evening of the New Year:
“It is the last evening of 2027, and I am sitting by the fire feeling so peaceful. What a year it has been. In spring, I finally said yes to the course I had been putting off, and by the summer I was earning from my own little business. We cleared the credit card in September. I remember how light I felt. We spent a week by the sea in August, and the children still talk about it. My health has been wonderful, and I feel at home in my body. Money flowed to me in expected and unexpected ways, and I felt safe receiving it. I am so grateful for this year. Thank you, thank you, thank you. It is done.”
Simple, warm and specific. That is all your script needs to be.
🌟 Living From the End All Year
Neville called this living in the end: carrying yourself through ordinary days as the person whose wish is already fulfilled. I explain it fully in Living in the End.
“Live as though the wish had come, even though it is yet to come, and you will shorten the period of waiting.”
Neville Goddard, The Law and the Promise
Here are a few gentle ways to do that:
- Read your script slowly, once a day. Morning or evening, whichever feels natural. One or two minutes is enough.
- Feel it before sleep. As you drift off, replay one small scene from your script, as if you are remembering it. My guide to Neville Goddard’s SATS technique explains this beautifully.
- Ask one question each morning: “What would my 2027 self do today?” Then take one small, inspired action.
I learned the power of calm expectation in my own love life. For years I was single and anxious, afraid I would grow old alone. When I finally let that anxiety turn into calm expectation, trusting the right man was on his way, I met my husband two months later. We married nine months after we met, when I was 33. I share the whole story in my book, but the lesson is simple: when you stop chasing and start expecting, life often moves faster than you think.
🌈 Revising Your Script Along the Way
Your winner’s script is not carved in stone. It is a living page.
Neville taught a beautiful practice he called revision. At the end of the day, you replay anything that did not go the way you wished, and you gently imagine it the way you would have loved it to unfold, until it feels settled and kind.
You can do the same with your script:
- Once a month, reread it. Does it still feel true for you? Does it still make your heart lift?
- Soften anything that feels forced. If a line makes you anxious, rewrite it until it feels calm and believable.
If scripting stirs up sadness or fear, that is normal. You are touching the gap between where you are and where you are going. Place a hand on your heart, name the feeling, and write from a softer place:
“Even though part of me feels scared right now, I am still choosing to write this story.”
Every day, I say an affirmation inspired by Henry Thomas Hamblin’s Dynamic Thought: “There is no real difficulty in my life. Everything that happens is ultimately for my growth and advancement.” It is a lovely line to keep at the bottom of your script, too.
🍀 If Your 2027 Script Includes a Lottery Win
If a life-changing win is part of your dream, I understand completely. I have been blessed with a significant lottery win myself, and I have written about the mindset, scripting and rituals I use in my book, Make Your Lottery Win Come True.
If a win is part of your winner’s script, write it with calm expectation, not desperation. Focus on how you feel and what the money brings into your life: safety, freedom, generosity and peace. And always play responsibly, only ever spending what you can comfortably afford.
To help you start, I have a free 7-part lottery affirmation script. 👉 Get the free lottery script here (it is delivered by email through Gumroad).

💖 A Soft Closing for Your Heart
You don’t have to know how 2027 will unfold. You only have to decide how you want to remember it, and then let yourself feel that memory a little every day.
Write it simply.
Feel it gently.
Live from it softly.
And let it come to you in expected and unexpected ways.
May your page be filled with joy.
May your heart feel lighter.
May 2027 be the year you look back on and say, “That was the year everything opened.”
I would love to hear one line from your winner’s script. Please leave a comment. I will read every one.
With warmth and gratitude,
Lily Grace
