Changing the Feeling of 'I' (Reactions as Indicators)
To confirm a change in the 'feeling of I' (one's self-concept), observe your automatic reactions to life. If you assume a new identity and your reactions…
Step by step
- Assume the feeling of the 'I' you wish to be.
- Observe your reactions to daily life and situations.
- If reactions are unchanged, you have not fully identified with the new 'I'.
- Continue to persist in the assumption until reactions automatically align with the new 'I'.

Changing The Feeling Of I
To confirm a change in the 'feeling of I' (one's self-concept), observe your automatic reactions to life. If you assume a new identity and your reactions remain the same, you have not truly identified with the new choice. A genuine change in the 'I' will automatically result in changed reactions, which in turn alters environment and behavior.
Now, how will I know that I have changed the feeling of 'I'? By beginning first with an uncritical observation of my reactions to life and then noticing my reactions when I think I am identified with my choice. If I assume that I am the man that I want to be, let me observe my reactions. If they are as they were, I have not identified myself with my choice, for my reactions are automatic and so if I am changed I would automatically change my reactions to life. So the changing of the feeling of 'I' results in a change of reaction, which change of reaction is a change of environment and behavior.
Automatic reactions serve as a barometer for one's true state of consciousness. A fundamental shift in self-concept ('feeling of I') will inevitably produce new, harmonious reactions, indicating a successful transformation that will then manifest externally.
