Don't you feel that this is a completely disempowering way in which to view the world? Isn't there room for personal growth in tandem with reaching out to others, being proactive?
the question was how this works IN the SR belief system, not your belief system. If thoughts create reality, if belief determines what we experience, then changing the beliefs & thoughts inside oneself is the ONLY way to help others or change the world.

No, it is extremely empowering to realize you are the only one who can save the world.
