As a lense, subjectivity is a great tool, but just a tool nonetheless. One of many.. You can't rely just on it and take it as the ultimate truth because it is not. There are areas where it works great and others where it doesn't apply.
Incidentally, another name for subjective reality is
psychology. It is the perception of the outer from the inside. I know, I know, when you call it that it becomes blend, dry, boring, overdone, uninteresting, common, etc.. It loses its sparkle, magic, mystical essence, but still it is what it is. Kudos to Steve and others though for coming up with a better packaging for an existing product and make it appealing again to the masses!

Fortunately, not everything is due to what you have done at an emotional, conscious, psychological level. If you have a physical ailment, it may or may not be because of an emotional trauma or your belief system in general. The subjective reality lense looks at these realms for answers and it may very well find them there, but you may be looking for ghosts. Don't discount other realms and other tools!
The human mind strives to simplify, turn things into little, sequential lists, into 12-step programs, which it can easily take in, follow and reap rewards (instantly of course). Sometimes it works, but often these simplifications mask the full complexity of the truth. A smart student of personal development has to face the fact that things are much more complex under the hood and any attempt to simplify is noble, yet comes with much fineprint.
