Remember that the first element of all change is awareness

Remember that the first element of all change is awareness. Watch yourself, become conscious, observe your thoughts, your fears, your beliefs, your habits, your actions, and even your inactions. Put yourself under a microscope. Study yourself. Once you are conscious, you can see your programming for what it is: simply a recording of information you received and believed in the past, when you were too young to know any better. You can see that this conditioning is not who you are but who you learned to be. You can see that you are not the “recording” but the “recorder.” You are not the “content” in the glass but the “glass” itself. You are not the software but the hardware.
