So Nathan, are you saying that these are two separate variables? If so
does that mean myMethod() would return false?

No, not at all.
THIS is a reference to the public scope of the CFC instance.
VARIABLES is a scope global (but "private") to the CFC instance.
Generally speaking, using THIS for instance data is a bad practice (see
list
archives for ad nauseum discussion of this matter).
In your example you should ge an error because variables.local.myVar is
not
defined, nor is this.local.myVar
