change and here's one of the primary
tools in the kit is this knowledge
change is not about what happens on the
outside it's about how you respond to
what happens it's state of being not
circumstance so the idea is that if you
say you have change and a similar
situation crops up that cropped up
before when you were in a negative State
and you react in the same negative way
to that circumstance you haven't changed
therefore there is no reason for the
outside reality to change because you've
just proven with the same old reaction
that you haven't changed if however the
same situation crops up the same set of
props appears before you and you respond
in a different way in a way that is
reflective of the fact that you really
believe you're a different person then
you are proving to physical reality you
really have changed and when you make
that proof available to reality then
creation and the mirror can change to
reflect a true change within you so
remember it's not about the idea idea of
what changes on the outside that proves
you have changed it's how you respond to
what's going on the outside even if it's
still the same that proves you have
changed because there is no outside
physical reality is just a reflection
It's Just an Illusion it is just another
version of you in whatever state you are
in and if you constantly need to remind
yourself what state you are in that's
what the reflection is for so that you
can look in the mirror and if you see
the frown you can say oh that's not what
I prefer I prefer to smile and thus then
when you keep smiling because that's
what you prefer the mirror will have no
choice but if you make it conditional
well I'll smile when the mirror Smiles
first I'll change I'll be happy when my
physical reality changes first then I'll
be happy as a reaction it doesn't work
that way
