This article just sounds like you're stuck on the fence between an objective reality and a subjective reality.

I don't think it's like equating hearing with sight as those are two completely seperate senses, and what you're talking about are two different perspectives on the same thing.

For example, lets take a situation. Your wife judges your friend harshly for eating meat.

Pure Subjective Reality Response - "I am creating this. I still have a lot of judgement towards people with different beliefs than me. I need to be more accepting. I accept my friend as he is and my wife just the way she is."

Pure Objective Reality Response - "Why is my wife so fricken judgemental? What's her problem? And why does my friend have to eat meat? What an idiot!"

These are just examples, but they stem from a viewpoint of whether or not you are "creating" the situation (subjective) or just witnessing it (objective).

I think it would be more wise to choose which you believe and stick with it, don't you think? Trying to say you believe both are equally true is sitting on the fence. It might result in something like this:

"Honey, why are you so judgemental? Don't you realize that you're creating and attracting people like this? You should really learn to be more accepting!"

to which, you will eventually get:

"Quit judging me!"
