How to read the words

Read the words carefully, with awareness of the meaning of each word as you speak it, and with the intention to transmit that meaning clearly to the listener. Speak in a soothing and authoritative manner. It might help to consider your role as similar to an air traffic controller helping the pilot of an aircraft. You are aiming to communicate clearly because you care about accurately guiding the listener. After all, that listener is your future self.

It is worth reading the words through at least once to yourself, before you make your recording.

Here are the words to read:

In the province of the mind, what one believes to be true either is true or becomes true within certain limits, to be found experientially and experimentally. These limits are beliefs to be transcended.

Hidden from one’s self is a covert set of beliefs that control one’s thinking, one’s actions, and one’s feelings.

The covert set of hidden beliefs is the limiting set of beliefs to be transcended.

To transcend one’s limiting set, one establishes an open-ended set of beliefs about the unknown.

The unknown exists in one’s goals for changing one’s self,
in the means for changing,
in the use of others for the change,
in one’s capacity to change,
in one’s orientation towards change,
in one’s elimination of hindrances to changes,
in one’s assimilation of the aids to change,
in one’s use of the impulse to change,
in one’s need for changing,
in the possibilities of change,
in the form of change itself,
and in the substance of change and of changing.

The unknown exists in one’s goals for changing one’s self,
in the means for that change,
in the use of others in the changing,
in one’s capacity for changing one’s self,
in one’s orientation towards changes,
in the elimination of hindrances to changing,
in one’s assimilation of the aids to changing,
in one’s impulses towards changing one’s self and undergoing changes,
in one’s needs for changes,
in the possibilities for change,
in the form of the changes themselves,
and in the substances of the changes and of changing itself.

There are unknowns in my goals towards changing
There are unknowns in my means of changing.
There are unknowns in my relations with others in changing.
There are unknowns in my capacity for changing.
There are unknowns in my orientation towards changing.
There are unknowns in my assimilation of changes.
There are unknowns in my needs for changing.
There are unknowns in the possibilities of me changing.
There are unknowns in the form into which changing will put me.
There are unknowns in the substance of the changes that I will undergo, in my substance after changes.

My disbelief in all these unknowns is a limiting belief, preventing my transcending my limits.
My disbelief in all these unknowns is a belief, a limiting belief, preventing my transcending my limits.

By allowing, there are no limits;
no limits to thinking,
no limits to feeling,
no limits to movement.

There are no limits to thinking,
