5 Reflections from Week 13 in the Master Key Experience:
Bonus: New (to me) Word(s)

1. Gratitude Attack – The evidence that triggers Gratitudes in you creates actions in your Universe. LAW of GROWTH: What you think about grows. Give more….Get More. Binge Gratitude!

2. In the first place, we must put our knowledge into practice.

Nothing can be accomplished in any other way. The athlete may read books and lessons on physical training all his life, but unless he begins to give out strength by actual work he will never receive any strength; he will eventually get exactly what he gives; but he will have to give it first. It is exactly the same with us; we will get exactly what we give, but we shall have to give it first. It will then return to us many fold, and the giving is simply a mental process, because thoughts are causes and conditions are effects; therefore in giving thoughts of courage, inspiration, health or help of any kind we are setting causes in motion which will bring about their effect.” Master Key 13:22.

Charles Haanel, Master Key 13:22.

3. Love a movie night – We were given a movie list to watch over the next 2 weeks. So far, I’ve seen 2 of them: “Rudy” and “Mully.” Seeing “Rudy” again from the lens of these past 3 months brought the movie to life. “Mully” is an awe-inspiring story of one person holding an unwavering vision. I will never be the same.

4. The Mountain Metaphor – We’re 1/2 way in this Master Key Experience. The point of no return. The closer one gets to the mountain – wait…it’s too big. The top is only 1/2 way – so much more to discover. Old blueprint brings confusion. Reminder – Focus on MY part of the story. Trust my Guides. Especially in the storm. One Day at a time. LIVE THE COMPASS.

5. We are entitled to the Best of EVERYTHING

The old orthodox way of thinking was to be “a worm,” to be satisfied with our portion whatever it is; but the modern idea is to know that we are entitled to the best of everything, that the “Father and I are one” and that the “Father” is the Universal Mind, the Creator, the Original Substance from which all things proceed.

Charles Haanel, Master Key – 13:20

BONUS NEW (to me) WORDs:

1. Happy Nack (n) noun – Well..I found only a negative definition of “Nack.” One reference to “Happy Nack” was a letter from George Washington to one John Fairfax: “I have often remarked to you, and I repeat it once more; that contrivance in the arrangement of business, and a happy nack in having it executed by an observance of method; are the distinguishing characteristics of a good Manager. 

2. ignominious (adj) early 15c., from Latin ignominiosus “disgraceful, shameful,” from ignominia “disgrace, infamy, loss of a (good) name

Blessing you with the BEST of EVERYTHING, Awesome One.
