You are not very often Self-determined, as you will know by the buffetings you presently take from the ego wielding tools of fear, blame, anger, and anxiety. A Self-determined being can experience none of these. He knows himself as a co-creator of all he experiences.

 

Take a moment now to feel the stillness, the peace there is in the absence of the ego and its tools.

 

 

When you have decided to be a Self-determining creature, nothing will seem to have changed on the outside.  You may keep to the same outward forms as before, performing the same functions, the same roles, the same acts as before.

 

 

But on the inside, now has everything changed.  Now do you no longer wonder where your moods come from, analyzing them, giving them the validity of your attention. Now all, all is on your timetable, in your time, at your behest, and serving your vision.

 

From now on, let me come from within.  Here, I am in receipt of all the power I could need, all the help I could need, and soothed by the thought of eternity.  Instead of trying endlessly to engineer reality so as to provide some experiences and avoid others, I decide how I would like to feel, and leave the rest to providence.  I decide I want to feel at peace and imperturbable.

 

 

Well then, let it be so. I accept imperturbability as my crown as the deliberate co-creator of my experience.
