We are enslaved by anything we do not consciously see. We are freed by conscious perception.

Vernon Howard

An obvious fact about negative feelings is often overlooked. They are caused by us, not by exterior happenings. An outside event presents the challenge, but we react to it. So we must attend to the way we take things, not to the things themselves.

Challenges Feelings Gratitude
No one can tell you what is right for you except yourself. So start telling yourself what to do. If you blunder for ten years while thinking for yourself, that is rich treasure when compared with living these ten years under the mental domination of another.
VERNON HOWARD

Mind Thinking Years
Quit thinking that you must halt before the barrier of inner negativity. You need not. You can crash through… whatever we see a negative state, that is where we can destroy it.

Is the beam from a lighthouse affected by howling wind and rain? It remains perfectly steadfast and unaffected by the storm. Your true self is like that. Nothing can ever harm you once you are consciously aware that it is so.

The search for truth is really a lot of good fun.
VERNON HOWARD

Fun Really Truth
You know what is right. Deep down, you know. The battle between your true wisdom and the counterfeit wisdom of society is what causes frustration. Refuse to compromise with what you know is right-with what is right for you.
VERNON HOWARD

Battle Causes Frustration
The only way to do something truly important every day is to seek to understand yourself every day.
VERNON HOWARD

Important Understand Way
We must become acquainted with our emotional household: we must see our feelings as they actually are, not as we assume they are. This breaks their hypnotic and damaging hold on us.
VERNON HOWARD

Assuming Emotional Feelings
Examine every action and reaction. Do you act naturally or do you act because you feel compelled? If you feel compelled, stop. Compulsion is slavery. Example: Refuse to go along with the crowd.
VERNON HOWARD

Completed Examine Naturally Refuse
All forms of self-defeating behavior are unseen and unconscious, which is why their existence is denied.
VERNON HOWARD

Self Unseen Weakness
You are not separate from the flowing reality; you are that flowing reality. See this and you will not see any- thing else which conflicts with it. You will be what you see.
