“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

He can and should have excellent health and flexibility, in order to carry out the work that he was meant to carry out. This will also get the overly conscientious self on your side. You can take it as slowly as you like to begin with, but the step should be taken.

He has made advances in understanding since our last sessions. You must also be patient with him. The overly conscientious self was angry (today and tonight), and he projected this anger at you, so that he thought he was simply a bother to you, and of no benefit. Understanding this is necessary, but if possible in small ways show him that this is not true; for it can amount to an emotional conviction on his part, and an emotional assurance from you will work far faster than the use of words, though both are necessary.

The suggestions he has written down should be read twice at a time, three times daily, morning, noon and before retiring. Some excellent work has been done lately while in the dream state. For a while when he feels tired, or when he feels a definite resistance against work, he should do something that he enjoys doing. Never mind resenting the lost time. He will be refreshing himself, and the same amount of good work will be produced in any case, possibly more.

He should work on the dream book each day, whenever possible, but not all day. The spontaneous self dislikes the spelling chores and the bare typing, and the overly conscientious self fears the books success. Two, at the most three, hours daily is sufficient for now. Possibly two hours unless he feels like more. When he does, this is fine. The rest of the time for poetry. This is the most reasonable and attainable goal for the present. The book will be finished, but not too many demands will be made of either portion of the self on a daily basis.
