The Law of Balance in One's Habitual Attitude (part 2))

 7. OBJECTS / OBJECTIVES::  Up to 5 on AAC (Attitude-Action-Condition) on Tone Scale, the person is more concerned in striving for objects. From Contentment on up, the individual is more conscious of having the objectives of life rather than striving for objects. The person is enthusiastic rather than ambitious. Value is in work rather than what work may bring. Below this point on the tone scale, the decision is that objects make life worthwhile.

8. RESPONSIBILITY / BLAME PLACING:  When an individual nears 6 on the AAC tone scale, he answers to self as cause. He no longer looks for someone or something outside of himself, nor creates an entity such as a diagnosis on which to place blame as cause. He accepts responsibility for self and the betterment of his environment.

9. INTEREST and CONTROL:  Below 6, a person centers his interest in himself and wants to control others in such a way that will serve self. His feeling is that if he can control others, he will not have need to control self. As one moves above 6, his interest centers around others because of the fascination he sees in them. He loses all desire to control others, finding control of self being attained. 

10. STRESS vs.HARMONY:  There's action in both worlds, but in man-made world has action which produces stress while the real objective of action is HARMONY. The attitudes of #1 through #5 deal with dissatisfaction. Above #6, the attitudes deal with satisfaction. The feelings below 6, deal with fear, above 6 deal with confidence. The higher degrees on the tone scale indicate an individual that sees relationships rather than thinking in terms of cause-effect

11. PERSONAL INTEGRATION:  The call of the Father is union with Him through love. Due to misconceptions, an individual feels false feeling of threat or emergency and causes him to put up defenses which fracture or disintegrate the Light of Truth given to him by God. It is the Truth which makes man free. Responsibility or independence is a matter of degree. Some may study self to achieve enough responsibility to rid themselves of headaches and indigestion, but go no further. Some may study and observe to raise themselves to the tone of Contentment, some to Exhilaration, some to points much higher.

12. RESPONSIBILITY and DUTY:  The study of self or personal integration opens the way for the person to see and feel responsibility for self and to differentiate duty for others from responsibility. No one can be responsible for another, even though there can be duty for another.
