Now; the same beliefs that influence most of your actions throughout your day are those that influence experiences that you deem to be significant or conflicting or confusing. The significance of paying attention in the now to yourself is that you begin to recognize what beliefs are being continuously reinforced. Therefore, in a moment in which you may be generating what you deem to be a significant experience, you may recognize, "Ah, this is what I am generating. This is the belief that is influencing. These are the automatic responses that I express. These are the triggers that generate an action of influence of certain beliefs which I automatically express response to." In recognition of all of these actions, in paying attention to you in the now to what you are actually DOING - for what you are actually doing is what you are choosing, regardless of what you are thinking. For if you are not paying attention to yourself and to your communications, you are not offering your thought mechanism accurate information.

But in this, as you allow yourself to be paying attention to what you are actually doing, what your communications are, what you are choosing, and evaluating what influences these choices, you offer yourself freedom. For once recognizing what influences your choices, you discontinue expressing automatic responses and you offer yourself greater choice. Now; this is not to say that in many of your actions and many of your experiences that even in the recognition of what influences those actions that you may not choose to continue to align with the influences of those beliefs. You may, but YOU are choosing.
