This is sort of continued on from my last post about affirmations….
Imagine you are stepping into a brand-new reality, and you decide that you are a powerful king, or a queen, or a brave superhero. To help yourself feel extra brave and strong, you might put on a shiny paper crown or a red superhero cape.
When you hear the phrase "you are the technique," it means that the paper crown and the red cape do not actually have any magic in them. The magic is entirely inside of you.
Techniques Are Just Props When you use "techniques" ..like repeating the same words, writing things down in a notebook, or closing your eyes to picture a scene….. they are really just like putting on the paper crown and superhero cape. These actions are simply props to help keep your mind focused on the new identity you have chosen.
You Are the Magic The only reason any of these props work is because you are doing them, and you are the one with the power. If you decide that wearing a red cape makes you unstoppable, you will act unstoppable. It doesn't work because the fabric is magical; it works because you made a firm decision about who you are, and you accepted it as true for you.
Do Not Give Your Magic Away Sometimes, people forget they are the ones with the magic. They start to think the paper crown is the boss. They think, "If I don't wear my crown today, or if I don't say my magic words perfectly, I can't be the king anymore." When you do that, you give your power away to a normal piece of paper.
"You are the technique" simply means you are the boss, you are the magic, and everything flows through you. You only use the tools when they make the experience more fun for you, or if it helps the "ego mind" to accept the new story - but you never actually need them.
