Today you changed a bank account over from an ordinary savings account to what you might call a super-account, where the very same amount of money will give you approximately twice as much interest.

(9:15.) The changing-over of your accounts physically means that you, Joseph, in particular came to an important constructive change of mind. You were changing from old attitudes to ones that would allow you to enjoy financial abundance, without feeling guilty on the one hand, or resentful on the other; to a concentration upon abundance rather that what money the government might take away from you.

Now: How do you get what you want out of Framework 2? You do it by changing over your accounts in whatever areas you are concerned, from the old savings account to the super-account with its nearly double rewards for the same effort. You do not watch for results. You give yourselves, say, six months, and you promise not to withdraw the issue from Framework 2’s account in the meantime. You withdraw the account by worrying about it. You withdraw the account by trying to exert more effort in Framework 1, instead of letting the account take care of itself.

Now: You still have some money in a regular savings account, and that is handy for simple day-to-day expenses, so of course you always have some effort to expend in Framework 1, and some experience with its normal trial-and-error tactics. You would think that it was rather fruitless, now that you have changed over your accounts, to spend any time worrying about all the money in the past still in the old savings account that did not get the superlative interest that these new accounts will enjoy.

You were not secure enough then to make the step, and the old accounts certainly did serve their purposes. Besides having money left over and saved, you did (underlined) get some extra rewards, if not those that your accounts now receive.

(9:26.) Now Ruburt is healthy. He is not as healthy as he would like to be, because his physical mobility is impaired. He does enjoy many of the most necessary elements of health, but he would like a higher interest, greater rewards in terms of health. He does this by mentally changing over his account (emphatically) from Framework 1, where he is indeed improving through effort, trial and error and determination—but improving at a far slower rate than he would like.

He will not worry, either, about the comparatively lesser interest or regards he received in the past. He will feel that the account is changed over.

Those feelings must be changed, for they will otherwise apply even if you changed publishers. You must change over that account now. You do this in the same manner that I have just given for Ruburt’s condition. You mentally change your account with Prentice from Framework 1 trial-and-error, a framework which has brought you some good rewards, but not as good interest as you would like. You do not concentrate upon the old, comparatively lesser returns, but you consider the account turned over, where for the same amount of effort your rewards will be far more than doubled.

Visualize, the both of you, changing over those accounts.

(I haven’t had a chance to talk it over with Jane yet—not until I get this session typed—but I’d like Seth to talk about the part others play when we, for example, do change over our accounts. That is, I need information on how our changeovers will affect others, perhaps leading them to alter habitual patterns of thought and operation so that we get what we want. But what about what they want or are used to? I want to know about resistances that may operate, and refusals to cooperate, even on subconscious levels. I don’t see simply Jane’s and my wishes having the power to change the behavior of other groups of people to that degree, I guess—unless our change of thought shifts all else into another probability.)
