33. Psychic Energy When we fear our thoughts, we turn our psychic energy against ourselves. Whatever frame of reference/or frame of mind you develop and bring to your emotional experience of “fear,” determines the game you play. Page 13

34. Whatever Game you play in life around fear comes from and reflects on some Frame that you’ve accepted, bought into, or been sold. Together, frame and game makes up the Frame Games that you play. Page 13

35. “Flush Out” the Frame Throughout the training we will be detecting our relationship to fear as both an emotion and a concept. This enables flushing out the Frame Games that we play. From there we can choose new Frame Games. Page 14

36. The “Good News” The good news is that whatever relationship you have developed to fear, you have learned it. That means, you can unlearn it. Page 14

37. “The Map is not the Territory.” Our way of relating to fear has developed from how we have mapped it perceptually. “It’s just a map; it’s not real; it’s not the territory.” Page 14

38. Internal Reality Is Entirely – “Map Governed” Once you “map it” it becomes your “internal reality.” Whatever you map governs your body and “seems” real. But it is a “constructed” reality. It therefore can be “re- constructed.” Page 14

39. Your “Power” - Constructed If you “think” the outside world “controls” your inner world, you give up your “power.” Once you fully realize that fear is “internal” and “constructed,” you can re-construct it. Page 14
