I’m sure most people can point to something in their life along the lines of what Seth is talking about here. FEAR (Fantasized Experiences Appearing Real) and self-doubt are often the culprits. Of course, in a physical reality which faithfully portrays our beliefs in each moment … these fears manifest which, of course, is taken as proof that these fears and doubts were well founded … and the cycle goes on perpetually reinforcing itself until we wake up and get out of that cycle.
“… you may discover not just one you, but several you’s, so to speak, each pursuing certain purposes, and you may find out furthermore that some such purposes cancel others out, while some are diametrically opposed to each other. Such cross purposes, of course, can lead to mental, spiritual, physical and emotional difficulties.

“Many people believe that it is dangerous to make themselves known, to express their own ideas or abilities. Such individuals may be highly motivated, on the other hand, to become accomplished in some art or profession or other field of activity. In such cases, you have two cross-purposes operating – the desire to express oneself, and the fear of doing so.
“If both beliefs are equally dominant and vital, then the situation becomes quite serious.”
(The Way Toward Health,Session May 29, 1984)
