MKS WEEK 15: Create Your Best Year Ever

Last year was a crazy year, but we have a feeling this year will be YOUR best year ever!

Despite a universally challenging 2020 year for all, there have been so many blessings – if we take the time to stop and look. 

Consider the challenges of the past year, through a different lens – the circumstances or situations that may have caused pain at the time but pushed you to evolve and grow, built resilience, forged progress, and, as a result, ultimately blessed your life. Find the blessing, be the blessing, and your life will be blessed.

As we head into the New Year and this entirely new world, we all find ourselves in, we want to give you the opportunity to grow even more and create whatever it is you truly desire – the life you were made for.  

If you are like most people, you are thinking about your goals and resolutions for 2021. Maybe you want to get healthy? Maybe you want to earn some additional income? Maybe you are looking for a new opportunity? Whatever you are looking for read this.

Biggest takeaway from 2020 is: Change happens and those who adapt fast will make it. That is the true meaning of survival of the fittest.

We believe survival in 2021 and beyond requires training from the Master Key System.  We really enjoyed the Master Key System reading this week.  There is so much substance in Part 15.  

There is so much I can link to the readings this week.  Here are a few examples.

  • The Master Key System Part Fifteen tells us more about the law under which we live.
  • It explains that these laws operate to our advantage.  
  • That all conditions and experiences that come to us are for our benefit.  
  • That we gain strength in proportion to the effort expended, and that
  • Our happiness is best attained through a conscious cooperation with natural laws.

My Master Key System exercise this week was to concentrate on Insight. And to focus my thought on the fact that to have a knowledge of the creative power of thought does not mean to possess the art of thinking. See: (4) How to use the Science of Mind, Ernest Holmes ( Excellent Book ) – YouTube

LAWS FOR PERSONAL CHANGE

The Power of Natural Laws:

The Master Key System tells me the laws under which I live are designed solely for my advantage. These laws are immutable. I cannot escape from their operation.

Difficulties, in harmonies, and obstacles in my life, indicate that I am either refusing to give away what I no longer need or I am refusing to accept what I require.

The Master Key System tells me I cannot obtain what I lack if I tenaciously cling to what I have. The Master Key System tells me I am able to consciously control my conditions as I come to sense the purpose of what I attract.

 The Master Key System tells me I am able to extract from each experience only what I require for my further growth.  Nothing may reach me except what is necessary for my growth.

All conditions and experiences that come to me do so for my benefit. Difficulties and obstacles will continue to come until I absorb their wisdom and gather from them the essentials of further growth.

The Master Key System tells me my highest happiness will be best attained through my understanding of, and conscious cooperation with natural laws. It is therefore essential that my emotions be controlled and guided by my intellect and reason.  The law of attraction, or the law of love, are one and the same. They will bring the necessary material for my growth and maturity.

The Power of Words and Affirmations: The Master Key System tells me thoughts also impact what I manifest in my life. It can be argued that the real power lies in my words. It is my words that provide a bold affirmation of my innermost thoughts.

Words are a confirmation to the world of how we see others, our lives and ourselves.

The Master Key System tells me the Law of Words provides: the first form which thought will find is language, or words.  This Law determines the importance of words.  Words are the first manifestation of thought — the vessels in which thought is carried. They take hold of the ether and by setting it in motion reproduce the thought to others in the form of sound.

Thought may lead to action of any kind, but whatever the action, it is simply the thought attempting to express itself in visible form. It is evident, therefore, that if I wish desirable conditions, I have to entertain only desirable thoughts.

This leads to the inevitable conclusion that if I wish to express abundance in my life, I have to think abundance only, and as words are only thoughts taking form. I must be especially careful to use nothing but constructive and harmonious language.  When my thoughts finally crystallized into objective forms they will prove to be in my advantage.

The Law of Visualization: To successfully use Visualization and the Law of Attraction, you need to communicate your desire to the unconscious mind.

This can be done through visualizing the circumstance or event you want to attract. Do this regularly enough and in the right way, and your subconscious mind will get busy finding ways to make it a reality and bring it about.

The Master Key System tells me I cannot escape from the pictures I incessantly photograph on my mind.  This photography of conceptions is exactly what is being done to me by my use of words.

The Master Key System tells me I manifest more and more life as my thought becomes clarified and takes higher planes.  I have to use word pictures that are clearly defined.

The Power and Law of Thought provides: The law of mind action (thoughts held in mind produce after their kind) certainly operates 100 percent of the time at the level of the mind. Whatever we think about with emotion will affect our mental state and create our reality

The Master Key System tells me it is with words I must express my thoughts.  If I am to make use of higher forms of truth, I may use only such thoughts as has been carefully and intelligently selected by me with my purpose in view.

This wonderful power of clothing thoughts in the form of words is what differentiates man from the rest of the animal kingdom.

The fact I have been enabled to come into communion with the greatest writers and thinkers of all time, and the combined record which we possess today is therefore the expression of Universal Thought as it has been seeking to take form in the mind of Man.

Universal Thought has for its goal the creation of form. Individual thought is likewise forever attempting to express itself in form. The word is a thought form. A sentence is a combination of thought forms.

If I wish my ideal to be beautiful or strong, I must use exact words. They must be put together carefully.  Accuracy in building words and sentences is the highest form of thinking.

Words are thoughts and are therefore an invisible and invincible power which will finally objectify themselves in the form I give them.

  • The beauty of the word consists in the beauty of the thought.
  • The power of the word consists in the power of the thought.
  • The power of the thought consists in its vitality.

The Power and Law of Truth

The Master Key System tells me about the Laws of Truths and that they are Absolute Laws. Something that works constantly on its own or is established to be consistently constant.

The Master Key System tells me the Law of Truth relates to the real truth behind my existence on this planet earth. There was total darkness which existed before the creation of this Universe. God created light, the sun, the stars, and the moon. Then God created Man and Woman as a manifest of His love.

To identify truth is to try what you are learning in the Master Key System and see the cause and effect in your life. This means, if someone you know claims to know the truth about, for example, God, then you try the things they suggest about God in your own life. See if it really works. If so then there IS truth in what you have learned.

  • There is a principle of Mathematics, but none of error.
  • There is a principle of health, but none of disease.
  • There is a principle of truth, but none of dishonesty.
  • There is a principle of light, but none of darkness.  
  • There is a principle of abundance, but none of poverty.

How shall we know that this is true? Because if we apply the principle of Mathematics correctly, we shall be certain of our results.

  • Where there is health there will be no disease.
  • If we know the Truth we cannot be deceived by error. If we let in light there can be no darkness, and where there is abundance there can be no poverty.

There can be no question but that he who “is wise enough to understand” will readily recognize that the creative power of thought places an invincible weapon in his hands and makes him a master of destiny.

The Power and Law of Compensation states “You get back what you give to others”.  The Law of Compensation is another restatement of the Law of Sowing and Reaping. It says that you will always be compensated for your efforts and for your contribution, whatever it is, however much or however little.

The Master Key System tells me the Law of Compensation basically states that you will be compensated for your actions. Similar to the Law of Cause and Effect, what you do, affects what you get. What you sow, so shall you reap. But this is not about money.

The Law of Compensation is as simple as it gets. You get what you give, positive or negative. When you understand that you are directly compensated for everything you do, it will start to put more weight behind the things that you do daily and will reward you in ways you could previously only dream of.

The Law of Compensation is when you are compensated for your deeds. It weaves into your life when through the Law of Cause and Effect. When compensation pays its dues, blessings arrive. Compensation can come in many forms such as money, gifts, people, new jobs, and experiences.

We find that we can get only what we give. If we pledge ourselves to a certain action, we must be prepared to assume the responsibility for the development of that action.

Insight:

The Master Key System tells me Insight is absolutely essential for the development of any great achievement. With it we may enter, explore, and possess any mental field.

Insight must be exercised so that the thought which I entertain contains no mental, moral, or physical germ which I do not wish objectified in my life.

Insight is a faculty of the mind whereby I am enabled to examine facts and conditions at long range.  It enables me to understand the difficulties, as well as the possibilities, in my undertakings.

Insight enables me to be prepared for the obstacles which I meet.  I can overcome them before they have any opportunity of causing difficulty.

Insight enables me to plan to advantage and turn my thought and attention in the right direction, instead of into channels which can yield no possible return.

Insight is a product of the world within me and is developed in the Silence, by my concentration.

FOUR TECHNIQUES FOR PERSONAL CHANGE

[1]: MKE Technique for Change

One of the tools the Master Key Experience introduced me to in week 13 was called NARC. It stands for Neurological Associative Reactive Conditioning, a way to change beliefs and behaviors.  

  • Basically, it is a technique where you link pain to your old beliefs and behaviors that are holding you back (the old blueprint).
  • Conversely you link immediate pleasure with your new preferred behaviors. Essentially, we are utilizing the Law of Dual Thought. We can attach any feeling to a thought we want.

What we do in this Master Key journey is decide what we really want, our Definite Major Purpose.

Then we attached strong emotion to our Definite Major Purpose so that it becomes our strong “why”. 

Now linking enormous pleasure to the experience of attaining our Definite Major Purpose increases the momentum of its manifestation.

On the other hand, we can also ask, “what will it cost me not to change?”

Then link pain to all the reasons. Make the pain of not changing so real, so intense, so immediate that you cannot put off taking that action any longer.

If that is not enough then focus on how it would affect your loved ones, your children, or other people you care about. For many of us that is the stronger pull.

[2]: Another technique is to “interrupt” limiting behaviors or beliefs.

If you notice a behavior that you would like to change, then think of some ways you can interrupt that belief or behavior. The wilder and more outlandish it is, the better.

You need to implement immediately when you notice the limiting belief or behavior with the crazy one.

It must be something that will cause you lots of pain (i.e., makes you feel ashamed when you do it) so you do not have to do it more than a few times to break that belief or behavior.

[3]: Equally important technique for change is to create some new empowering habits which we have doing in the Master Key journey.

We have taken control and created new habits instead of allowing the unconscious habits to take over.

Conclusion: NARC is a reminder to link pleasure to all the new habits. Reward yourself for every small improvement so that your nervous system will associate pleasure with change. Congratulate yourself for implementing every new habit. Positively reinforce every time you produce the behavior you are looking for.

Franklin Makeover (week 15) – Naz #Master Key Experience

[4]: Another technique is the Franklin Makeover

Week 15 was the week of the beginning of the “Franklin Makeover.” This week’s assignment for MKMMA members is the Franklin Makeover created by none other than Benjamin Franklin.

In the “Franklin Makeover” we categorized a list of 13 virtues in descending order with the virtues needing the most improvement at the top.

Master Key Experience’s Virtues Exercise

13 Virtues                             M        T          W        Th       F          S          S

  1. Self-Control
  2. Kindness
  3. Discipline
  4. Enthusiasm
  5. Courage
  6. Persistence
  7. Specialized Knowledge
  8. Imagination
  9. Decisiveness
  10. Well Organized
  11. Taking Initiative
  12. Pleasing Personality
  13. See God in Others

Recognize, Relate Assimilate, Apply Identify, Magnify, Multiple

Awareness is the beginning of Change Instruction: 

  1. For the virtue you want to develop the most put it in the top spot on your spread sheet.
  2. Focus on that virtue for one week
  3. Multiple Choices
  4. Focus on this virtue all day
  5. Law of Growth-What you Focus on Grows
  6. Law of Substitution-Your Focus Though Substitutes and Old Thought
  7. Your 13 Week Payoff-You will See the Virtues in Yourself

On the top of my “Franklin Makeover” list, I had the virtue of Self-Control.

Using the list of Virtues provided, I listed them in order of what I required the most improvement. Then I listed Kindness.

So, #1 on my list is Self-Control.  I require exercising more self-control in certain areas of my life, so I am focusing on self-control for the first week.  By focusing on self-control for a week, I am able to identify, magnify and multiply my awareness and therefore effect change.

During week #2, which is Kindness Week, I will be posting acts of kindness either given or received into my Kindness. 

This is being done to see the Law of Growth in action…” whatever I think about grows and what I forget atrophies without exception”.

Here is my Virtue list:

#1 -Self-Control

#2_ Kindness

#3 – Specialized Knowledge

#4 – Well-Organized

#5 – Discipline

#6 – Persistence

#7 – Courage

#8 – Taking Initiative

#9 – Pleasing Personality

#10 – Imagination

#11 – Enthusiasm

#12 – Decisiveness

#13 – See God in Others – Our members focus on seeing God in others for the final week

Master Key System Week 15 Conclusion

The Master Key System exercise for this week, concentrates on the Laws and Insight.  

I was able to:

  • Let my thought dwell on the fact that knowledge does not apply itself.
  • My actions are not governed by knowledge, but by custom, precedent and habit and action.
  • The only way I can get myself to apply knowledge is by a determined conscious effort.
  • That knowledge unused passes from my mind. And that the value of the information is in the application of the principle.
  • I am to do these things until I gain sufficient insight to formulate a Definite Program for applying this principle to my own particular problems.

This exercise made me think of my Definite Major Purpose (DMP) and why it needed multiple revisions.  This also made me think of the importance of the words written down on the bottom of my Service Card.  “I am whole, perfect, strong, powerful, loving, healthy, harmonious and happy.”

MKE: New Year: A New Wonderful You in 2021

What a year 2020 was!

It was unlike any other we’ve all seen, that’s for sure.

I don’t know about you, but I’ll be glad to put some things about 2020 in the past, such as COVID-19. I’m believing for a much better 2021 on all levels, as I’m sure you are too.

With the New Year here, most people start writing down or making a mental assent to New Year Resolutions.  In fact, many people come up with a whole list of New Year’s Resolutions and have great intentions of following through with them.

Some common resolutions include losing weight, eating healthier, exercising regularly, beginning a hobby, and getting out to have more fun.

We think resolutions are great because essentially, they are goals. And, having goals in life is a wonderful way to make progress.  It’s helpful to create personal, professional, social, relationship, and financial goals in mind and written down on paper to be at your best or at least be progressing.

New Year’s Challenges

Along with New Year’s Resolutions come challenges.  Most of us have made a resolution and broken it within a few weeks due to one reason or another.  If this is the case for you, take heart.  Read further for Franklin Solution for your challenges to your New Year’s Resolutions. Then head into your New Year pumped up for the changes you’d like to see happen.

Creating goals for the New Year is probably the easiest part of New Year’s resolutions.  Most people have some pretty high hopes and dreams that they want to accomplish, but the challenge comes when they get one to two weeks into the New Year and forget all about those resolutions. There certainly are challenges when it comes to New Year’s Resolutions. However, there are things you can do to get past them.

Befriend Change, Proven Systems and Motivation

To accomplish any goal, it takes a proven system and motivation on your part.  Sometimes it is tough to use a proven system or feel motivated to keep working toward a goal.

  • You might lose two pounds and be eating great for a while, but then the motivation wanes and before you know it, you’re back to your unhealthy eating habits. 
  • Or maybe you’ve been feeling lonely and would like some new friends. You might attend a community gathering once or twice, and then get right back to hibernating at home. You simply lose steam.

To keep your motivation levels high, there are several things that you can do. 

  • You can learn to Change Your Life with Ben Franklin’s 13 Virtues.
  • The next thing to do is to write your New Year’s Resolutions down on a piece of paper and then put that list in a place that you will see frequently. Put it on the fridge, on your bathroom mirror, at the office, or on your dashboard.  The key is to see (or hear) your goals each day so that you don’t forget what your resolutions are. This helps you to stay motivated.
  • The next thing you can do is to listen to audios or read your Definate Major Purpose. That will keep you inspired and encouraged to keep moving forward toward your goals. 
  • The next thing is to Change Your Life with Ben Franklin’s 13 Virtues.
Benjamin Franklin and His Son, Divided by Independence | The New Republic

Benjamin Franklin was born in 1706 into a family of very modest means. Today, they’d probably be called lower middle class at best. His parents had just enough money to send him to school for a couple of years in hope that he could eventually join the clergy, but by the age of 10, he was done with school.

He was a print shop apprentice by the age of 12, climbing around on printing presses, sorting letters, mixing ink, and all of the other tasks needed to keep a printing press running.

From that humble background, Franklin became a highly successful printer, a well known writer, a scientist, a politician, and a diplomat, among the many other hats he wore. During those efforts, he accumulated enough wealth to effectively retire independently wealthy in his forties, and he largely devoted the rest of his life to public service (and his individual interests). He was such a towering figure in the American Revolution that he was deservedly called the “first American,” and his light shines brightly even today.

One of the things that has really stood out to me each time I’ve read his autobiography is the fact that he attributed most of his success (beyond that of luck) to practicing 13 core life virtues, to the best of his ability. He believed that by living those virtues, he had done everything he could to put himself in a position to be on the good side of the unexpected events of life.

He actually had an incredible system for working on those virtues, which we want to talk about now.

Ben Franklin’s ‘Virtue Cards’

For a large portion of Franklin’s life, he carried around a card in his pocket that depicted a simple table with seven columns and 13 rows on it.

Each column on this card represented a day of the week – Monday through Sunday. Each row on this card represented one of 13 virtues that he wanted to work on.

During the day, he might glance at these virtues a time or two to keep them fresh in his mind. At the end of each day, however, he’d pull out a pen and go through those virtues, asking himself if he’d actually practiced them during the day and marking the box if he had done so. His goal was to fill in as many boxes as possible, and each week, he would start anew with a fresh blank chart.

That wasn’t all. Not all of the charts were identical. In fact, he had 13 variations of the charts, which he cycled through every 13 weeks. On the top of each variation of the card was listed one virtue, which was the main one he wanted to practice that week, along with a brief description of that virtue.

For example, one week, he might really focus on frugality, while the next week might particularly focus on temperance. He’d reflect on and record his success with all 13 virtues each day, but he would intentionally focus on just one virtue each week.

Benjamin Franklin's 13 Virtues | Friday.app

A final key part of his practice is that he’d review the cards as a whole at the end of each week, evaluating which virtues were successful that week, which ones were not, and which areas really needed focus and improvement in his life.

He’d also review them as a set, and thus with 13 cards to review, that roughly covers three months of living. A larger review like this – a “quarterly review” if you will – can point you to some larger patterns along your path to becoming a better person.

Over time, these virtues became more and more ingrained in his character. He found himself naturally practicing them more than he once did, which made him into a more well-rounded and successful person and a better participant in society, which he attributed to being a healthy part of the success that he found in almost every attribute of life. So what were these 13 virtues?

25 13 virtues ideas | benjamin franklin, franklin, virtue

Here are the virtues that Franklin tracked and reflected upon each day.

His goal was to improve himself with regard to each virtue so that over time he was a better person in that regard, and by being a better overall person, he was more open to life’s opportunities.

Temperance

Eat not to dullness; drink not to elevation.

This one’s pretty simple. Eat until you’re not hungry any more rather than stuffing yourself, don’t eat just for entertainment’s sake or for boredom’s sake, and stop drinking when it begins to impair your judgment and sensibilities. It’s about self-regulating what you put into your body and making the conscious choice to put in only enough for good living.

Silence

Speak not but what may benefit others or yourself; avoid trifling conversation.

If you don’t have anything of value to add to a conversation, don’t do so. Instead, just listen to what’s being said – and actually listen. Try to seek out meaningful conversations and avoid meaningless chatter. This doesn’t mean that you avoid getting to know other people and small talk, but that you recognize that there is a distinct purpose to such conversations and you keep a focus on that purpose. Idle chatter for no purpose is the problem, as is speaking just to fill space in the conversation.

Order

Let all your things have their places; let each part of your business have its time.

Keep your physical possessions organized so that you can always find what you need. Do the same with your time, so that you always have time for the things that are important to you; if that’s a struggle, adopt some form of time management or a smarter approach to one’s possessions. If you have too many things that it becomes very difficult to keep them all straight, then this is a call to start downsizing the less important things.

Resolution

Resolve to perform what you ought; perform without fail what you resolve.

If you decide to do something, carry through with it. Don’t commit to things that you can’t follow through on or aren’t actually intending to follow through on. Say “no” if you’re asked to do something that you can’t actually follow through on. In fact, if you’re unsure, say “no” just so you’re not left with someone else holding the bag due to your failure of resolution. If you say “yes,” follow through on that yes.

Frugality

Make no expense but to do good to others or yourself; i.e., waste nothing.

My favorite virtue, perhaps. Don’t be wasteful with your money. Whenever you spend a dollar or use something, have it be genuinely purposeful. You want to get maximum value for the dollars that you have when you choose to spend them. If you’re not choosing to spend them, put them to work for you in some aspect of your life, either by paying down debt or building an emergency fund or saving for a big goal like retirement.

Industry

Lose no time; be always employ’d in something useful; cut off all unnecessary actions.

Don’t spend your time idling. Try to spend your time doing something productive, and if you lack the energy or focus to do the task at hand, find something else that fits where you’re at. If you don’t have anything on hand to do, spend that time improving yourself. If you’re too tired to do anything, sleep, and if that tiredness is consistent, engage in purposeful leisure or talk to a doctor.

Sincerity

Use no hurtful deceit; think innocently and justly, and, if you speak, speak accordingly.

Be honest in your words, but also kind in terms of the impact that they can have on others. Don’t be hurtful with what you say, but strive to lift up the other person. Don’t lie and don’t mislead, but don’t be cruel with your words, either. If you must criticize, find ways to criticize without being “brutally honest,” which is insincere in its intention.

Justice

Wrong none by doing injuries, or omitting the benefits that are your duty.

Don’t bring harm to others for your own benefit. Try to find ways so that everyone involved in your interactions finds some genuine benefit. Seek out solutions so that everyone wins. If you agreed to an arrangement, stick by that arrangement, or renegotiate it if it’s now untenable.

Moderation

Avoid extremes; forbear resenting injuries so much as you think they deserve.

Choosing extreme positions or acting toward others in extreme ways often ends up with negative consequences for you without any real benefit. Avoid taking positions or behaving in ways that bring harm towards others unless you intentionally are bringing harm, in which case be careful in the amount of harm you bring.

Cleanliness

Tolerate no uncleanliness in body, cloaths, or habitation.

Practice hygiene. Keep your clothes clean. Keep your home clean. Keep your office clean. Keep your teeth clean. This is not only for your own health, but also for how you present yourself to the world.

Tranquillity

Be not disturbed at trifles, or at accidents common or unavoidable.

Don’t be upset by the unexpected events that life throws at you. They’re going to happen – being upset does not help resolve them. If you recognize your emotions swelling, consciously keep them in check. Learn how to recognize your own emotions inside and understand them without reacting to them or acting upon them. Use them as information instead in order to make better decisions.

Chastity

Rarely use venery but for health or offspring, never to dullness, weakness, or the injury of your own or another’s peace or reputation.

Don’t let physical passions become a distraction or a main focus in your life. Don’t allow it to cause you to betray or harm others. Again, if you find yourself in a position where things are untenable, seek outside help and don’t simply toss the virtue to the side.

Humility

Imitate Jesus and Socrates.

Undersell and overdeliver in everything that you do. Don’t talk about how great you are; instead, be great and give abundant credit to others.

A person who is a true master of these 13 virtues would be a great person, indeed, and would likely find that great success nearly falls on their lap.

Make Your Own Virtues

While we believe that these are all worthwhile virtues to practice, one might want to choose other virtues – or even personal skills – that they want to improve and substitute them into Franklin’s plan. One could easily remove some virtues and substitute other ones, or even start from scratch with one’s own virtues.

For example, let’s say that someone wanted to use this practice to strictly improve their finances. They would likely retain frugality and temperance, but they might want to add other virtues and skills to the mix, such as mastering food preparation, using deliberate practice in one’s career path, building social skills, and so on.

Let’s say that you wanted to master becoming a calmer person. You might include things like meditation and prayer in your list of virtues.

It all depends on what you want to achieve. Franklin’s list of 13 virtues really will go a long way toward improving your overall character and life situation no matter where you’re at in life.

The goal with all of this is to come up with a set of very specific virtues or skills that you can apply every single day to become a better person, the person you want to be, and then review your progress with those virtues and skills each day, week, month and annually. Over time, those skills and virtues would become natural to you, shaping you into the person you desire to become.

Make the Franklin Technique a Daily Practice

[1]: The key to this is to make it a daily practice. Once you’ve defined a set of virtues or specific skills that you want to work on in your life and integrate into your normal behaviors, take it a step further and copy Franklin’s entire system, using your desired virtues and skills as the basis for your practice.

[2]: You can start by making a set of cards for the virtues you want to practice. It’s pretty simple to design a small table, with rows for each thing you want to improve and columns for each day of the week, in your preferred word processing program. Just design a size that prints easily on a blank 4″ by 6″ index card and print them yourself. If you prefer, you can also design them by hand using a ruler and a pen.

[3]: On each card, simply write the days of the week at the top of each column and an abbreviation of the skill or virtue you want to practice to the left of each row.

[4]: Consider designing a set of these cards, one with each virtue or skill you want to practice at the top with a brief description, so that you have a particular virtue or skill to focus on that week. Print off (or make) the entire set at once, cycle through all of them, and then make a new set and start from scratch.

[5]: At the end of the week, review your overall progress. Which virtues are you particularly weak on right now? What can you do to strengthen those virtues going forward? Use the data you recorded – both the marked virtues and skills you succeeded with and the ones you missed – as a source of insight on how to continue to improve.

[6]: The key thing to always remember with a process like this is that it takes time. People always want immediate results that appear like magic. Improving yourself takes time, and then it takes even more time for the effects of that improvement to propagate out into your life.

[7]: The key thing is to remember that you are getting better, little by little. If you strive to be a little better than the day before, you’re always heading in the right direction, and given enough time, that change will ripple out into the world.

If you keep your resolution going until the end of January… well then you’ll be ahead of 80% of the world! (Not a bad place to be, right?) If you need help we suggest you review this message and consider The Master Key System and Experience.

[Q]: WHY Study The Master Key System? [A]: A New Life and Awesome Future

Napoleon Hill wrote to Charles Haanel expressing his gratitude for the course and recounting its influence on his bestselling works.

Here is a copy of the letter Napoleon Hill sent to Charles Haanel:

April 21, 1919.

Mr. Charles F. Haanel,

St. Louis, Mo.

My dear Mr. Haanel:

You probably know, from the editorial in the January issue of the Golden Rule, copy of which my Secretary sent to you, that I began twenty-two years ago as a coal miner at a dollar a day.

I have just been retained by a ten-million-dollar corporation at a salary of $105,200.00 a year, for a portion of my time only, it is having been agreed that I shall continue as editor of the Hill’s Golden Rule.

I believe in giving credit where it is due, therefore I believe I ought to inform you that my present success and the success which has followed my work as President of the Napoleon Hill Institute is due largely to the principles laid down in The Master-Key System. You are doing a good work by helping people to realize that nothing is impossible of accomplishment which a man can create in his imagination. Surely my own experience proves this.

I shall cooperate with you in getting your course into the hands of the many who so greatly need your message.

Cordially and sincerely,

Napoleon Hill, Editor,

The Golden Rule

Chicago, Illinois

Endorcements

It has been rumored (and remains unconfirmed) that Bill Gates, while a student, read the Master Key System and then began Microsoft Corporation.

The Master Key System by Charles Haanel was also a key foundation of the modern book and movie, The Secret.

It has also been quoted and is the foundation of many other books and writings over the past 100 years.

MASTER KEY SYSTEM INTRODUCTION

Nature compels us all to move through life. We could not remain stationary however much we wished. Every right-thinking person wants not merely to move through life like a sound-producing, perambulating plant, but to develop – to improve – and to continue the development mentally to the close of physical life.

This development can occur only through the improvement of the quality of individual thought and the ideals, actions and conditions that arise as a consequence.

Hence a study of the creative processes of thought and how to apply them is of supreme importance to each one of us. This knowledge is the means whereby the evolution of human life on earth may be hastened and uplifted in the process.

Humanity ardently seeks “The Truth” and explores every avenue to it. In this process it has produced a special literature, which ranges the whole gamut of thought from the trivial to the sublime – up from Divination, through all the Philosophies, to the final lofty Truth of “The Master Key”.

The “Master Key” is here given to the world as a means of tapping the great Cosmic Intelligence and attracting from it that which corresponds to the ambitions, and aspirations of each reader.

Everything and institution we see around us, created by human agency, had first to exist as a thought in some human mind. Thought therefore is constructive. Human thought is the spiritual power of the cosmos operating through its creature man.

“The Master Key” instructs the reader how to use that power and use it both constructively and creatively. The things and conditions we desire to become realities we must first create in thought. “The Master Key” explains and guides the process.

~F.H. BURGESS

Some men seem to attract success, power, wealth, attainment, with very little conscious effort; others conquer with great difficulty; still others fail altogether to reach their ambitions, desires, and ideals.

Why is this so? Why should some men realize their ambitions easily, others with difficulty, and still others not at all? The cause cannot be physical, else the most perfect men, physically, would be the most successful.

The difference, therefore, must be mental – must be in the mind; hence mind must be the creative force, must constitute the sole difference between men. It is mind, therefore, which overcomes environment and every other obstacle in the path of men.

When the creative power of thought is fully understood, its effect will be seen to be marvelous. But such results cannot be secured without proper application, diligence, and concentration. The student will find that the laws governing in the mental and spiritual world are as fixed and infallible as in the material world.

To secure the desired results, then, it is necessary to know the law and to comply with it. A proper compliance with the law will be found to produce the desired result with invariable exactitude. The student who learns that power comes from within, that he is weak only because he has depended on help from outside, and who unhesitatingly throws himself on his own thought, instantly rights himself, stands erect, assumes a dominant attitude, and works miracles.

It is evident, therefore, that he who fails to fully investigate and take advantage of the wonderful progress which is being made in this last and greatest science, will soon be as far behind as the man who would refuse to acknowledge and accept the benefits which have accrued to mankind through an understanding of the laws of electricity.

Of course, mind creates negative conditions just as readily as favorable conditions, and when we consciously or unconsciously visualize every kind of lack, limitation, and discord, we create these conditions; this is what many are unconsciously doing all the time.

This law as well as every other law is no respecter of persons but is in constant operation and is relentlessly bringing to each individual exactly what he has created; in other words, “Whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap.”

Abundance, therefore, depends upon a recognition of the laws of Abundance, and the fact that Mind is not only the creator, but the only creator of all there is. Certainly, nothing can be created, before we know that it can be created and then make the proper effort.

There is no more Electricity in the world today than there was fifty years ago, but until someone recognized the law by which it could be made of service, we received no benefit; now that the law is understood, practically the whole world is lit by it. So, with the law of Abundance; it is only those who recognize the law and place themselves in harmony with it, who share in its benefits.

The scientific spirit now dominates every field of effort, relations of cause and effect are no longer ignored.

The discovery of a region of law marked an epoch in human progress. It eliminated the element of uncertainty and caprice in men’s lives, and substituted law, reason, and certitude.

Men now understand that for every result there is an adequate and definite cause, so that when a given result is desired, they seek the condition by which alone this result may be attained.

The basis upon which all law rests was discovered by inductive reasoning which consists of comparing a number of separate instances with one another until the common factor which gives rise to them all is seen.

It is this method of study to which the civilized nations owe the greater part of their prosperity and the more valuable part of their knowledge; it has lengthened life, it has mitigated pain, it has spanned rivers, it has brightened the night with the splendor of day, extended the range of vision, accelerated motion, annihilated distance, facilitated intercourse, and enabled men to descend into the sea, and into the air.

What wonder then that men soon endeavored to extend the blessings of this system of study to their method of thinking, so that when it became plainly evident that certain results followed a particular method of thinking it only remained to classify these results.

This method is scientific, and it is the only method by which we shall be permitted retain that degree of liberty and freedom which we have been accustomed to look upon as an inalienable right, because a people is safe at home and in the world only if national preparedness mean such things as growing surplus of health, accumulated efficiency in public and private business of whatever sort, continuous advance in the science and art of acting together, and the increasingly dominant endeavor to make all of these and all other aspects of national development center and revolve about ascending life, single and collective, for which science, art and ethics furnish guidance and controlling motives

The Master Key is based on absolute scientific truth and will unfold the possibilities that lie dormant in the individual and teach how they may be brought into powerful action, to increase the person’s effective capacity, bringing added energy, discernment, vigor, and mental elasticity.

The student who gains an understanding of the mental laws which are unfolded will come into the possession of an ability to secure results hitherto undreamed of, and which has rewards hardly to be expressed in words.

It explains the correct use of both the receptive and active elements of the mental nature and instructs the student in the recognition of opportunity; it strengthens the will and reasoning powers, and teaches the cultivation and best uses of imagination, desire, the emotions, and the intuitional faculty.

It gives initiative, tenacity of purpose, wisdom of choice, intelligent sympathy, and a thorough enjoyment of life on its higher planes.

The Master Key teaches the use of Mind Power, true Mind Power, not any of the substitutes and perversions; it has nothing to do with Hypnotism, Magic, or any of the more or less fascinating deceptions by which many are led to think that something can be had for nothing.

The Master Key cultivates and develops the understanding which will enable you to control the body and thereby the health.

It improves and strengthens the Memory. It develops Insight, the kind of Insight which is so rare, the kind which is the distinguishing characteristic of every successful business man, the kind which enables men to see the possibilities as well as the difficulties in every situation, the kind which enables men to discern opportunity close at hand, for thousands fail to see opportunities almost within their grasp while they are industriously working with situations which under no possibility can be made to realize any substantial return.

The Master Key develops Mental Power which means that others instinctively recognize that you are a person of force, of character – that they want to do what you want them to do; it means that you attract men and things to you; that you are what some people call “lucky”, that “things” come your way’ that you have come into an understanding of the fundamental laws of Nature, and have put yourself in harmony with them; that you are in tune with Infinite; that you understand the law of attraction, the Natural laws of growth, and the Psychological laws on which all advantages in the social and business world rest.

Mental Power is creative power, it gives you the ability to create for yourself; it does not mean the ability to take something away from someone else. Nature never does things that way. Nature makes two blades for grass grow where one grew before, and Mind Power enables men to do the same thing.

The Master Key develops insight and sagacity, increased independence, the ability, and disposition to be helpful. It destroys distrust, depression, fear, melancholia, and every form of lack limitation and weakness, including pain and disease; it awakens buried talents, supplies initiative, force, energy, vitality – it awakens an appreciation of the beautiful in Art, Literature and Science.

It has changed the lives of thousands of men and women, by substituting definite principles for uncertain and hazy methods – and principles for the foundation upon which every system of efficiency must rest.

Elbert Gary, the chairman of the United States Steel Corporation, said “The services of advisers, instructors, efficiency experts in successful management are indispensable to most business enterprises of magnitude, but I deem the recognition and adoption of right principles vastly more importance.”

The Master Key teaches right principles and suggests methods for making a practical application of the principles; in that it differs from every other course of study.

It teaches that the only possible value which can attach to any principle is in its application. Many read books, take home study courses, attend lectures all their lives without ever making any progress in demonstrating the value of the principals involved.

The Master Key suggests methods by which the value of the principles taught may be demonstrated and put in actual practice in the daily experience.

There is a change in the thought of the world. This change is silently transpiring in our midst and is more important than any which the world has undergone since the downfall of Paganism.

The present revolution in the opinions of all classes of men, the highest and most cultured of men as well as those of the laboring class, stands unparalleled in the history of the world

Science has of late made such vast discoveries, has revealed such an infinity of resources, has unveiled such enormous possibilities and such unsuspected forces, that scientific men more and more hesitate to affirm certain theories as established and indubitable or to deny certain other theories as absurd or impossible, and so a new civilization is being born; customs, creeds, and cruelty are passing; vision, faith and service are taking their place.

The fetters of tradition are being melted off from humanity, and as the dross of materialism is being consumed, thought is being liberated and truth is rising full orbed before an astonished multitude.

The whole world is on the eve of a new consciousness, a new power and a new consciousness, a new power, and a new realization of the resources within the self. The last century saw the most magnificent material progress in history. The present century will produce the greatest progress in mental and spiritual power.

Physical Science has resolved matter into molecules, molecules into atoms, atoms into energy, and it has remained for Sir Ambrose Fleming, in an address before the Royal Institution, to resolve this energy into mind. He says: “In its ultimate essence, energy may be incomprehensible by us except as an exhibition of the direct operation of that which we call Mind or Will.”

Let us see what the most powerful forces in Nature are. In the mineral world everything is solid and fixed. In the animal and vegetable kingdom it is in a state of flux, forever changing, always being created, and recreated. In the atmosphere we find heat, light, and energy.

Each realm becomes finer and more spiritual as we pass from the visible to the invisible, from the course to the fine, from the low potentiality to high potentiality. When we reach the invisible, we find energy in its purest and most volatile state.

And as the most powerful forces of Nature are the invisible forces, so we find that the most powerful forces of man are his invisible forces, his spiritual force, and the only way in which the spiritual force can manifest is through the process of thinking. Thinking is the only activity which the spirit possesses, and thought is the only product of thinking.

Addition and subtraction are therefore spiritual transactions; reasoning is a spiritual process; ideas are spiritual conceptions; questions are spiritual searchlights and logic; argument and philosophy is spiritual machinery.

Every thought brings into action certain physical tissue, parts of the brain, nerve, or muscle. This produces an actual physical change in the construction of the tissue.

Therefore, it is only necessary to have a certain number of thoughts on a given subject in order to bring about a complete change in the physical organization of a man.

This is the process by which failure is changed to success. Thoughts of courage, power, inspiration, harmony, are substituted for thoughts of failure, despair, lack, limitation, and discord, and as these thoughts take root, the physical tissue is changed and the individual sees life in a new light, old things have actually died, all things have become new, he is born again, this time born of the spirit, life has a new meaning for him, he is reconstructed and is filled with joy, confidence, hope, energy.

He sees opportunities for success to which he was heretofore blind. He recognizes possibilities which before had no meaning for him.

The thoughts of success with which he has been impregnated are radiated to those around him, and they in turn help him onward and upward; he attracts to him new and successful associates, and this in turn changes his environment; so that by this simple exercise of thought, a man changes not only himself, but his environment, circumstances, and conditions.

You will see, you must see, that we are at the dawn of a new day; that the possibilities are so wonderful, so fascinating, so limitless as to be almost bewildering. A century ago, any man with a Gatling Gun could have annihilated a whole army equipped with the implements of warfare then in use. So, it is at present. Any man with a knowledge of the possibilities contained in the Master Key has an inconceivable advantage over the multitude.
