As you transform your self, you will know in your heart that you need not be threatened by the views or actions of anyone else. You will receive more joy and ease in your life, because that is what you will be sending out. You will find it easier to accept contrary views, knowing that you are not defined by anything or anyone external to yourself. You will eliminate conflict and confrontation as you find it unnecessary to prove yourself to anyone. You will be the power of a quiet mind, and you will choose to go there often. You will discover things about yourself that you perhaps never considered before.

Anyone in my life who attempts to be controlling or judgmental will not engage my emotional energy. I have lost my need to prove myself or justify my beliefs. A peaceful sense of who I am radiates and intermingles with respect for others. The changes in myself and my life patterns have all happened without goals or any life plan. Yet these inner changes are as much a part of me as are my lungs and my heart.
