The excitement is building as I progress in Week #2 of the Master Key Master Mind Alliance journey.
At least as fast as this 70+ year subconscious and conscious mind can assimilate ~smile
Reviewing Week #2 of the Master Key, by Charles Haanel, reinforced my earlier commitment to the Power From Within that is generated when we learn to TRAIN our Subconscious Mind. The Subconscious is such a dynamic, always available, machine of greatness or emptiness and negativity.
Not only have the daily recitals of Og Mandino’s Scroll One been beneficial, the direction from Mark and his crew regarding the use of Index Cards for focusing thought and creating good habits.
The Letter of Transmittal for Week 2 of The Master Key has an impact every time I read for the past 5 decades.

As mentioned previously I have wandered several times from my Definite Major Purpose (Established in 1960) and let a few of my solid Habits get pushed aside by external pressures. Being part of the #MKMMA Master Key Master Mind Alliance has reinforced my original Life commitment and I have been experiencing the thrill of getting back to ME and how I was destined to live.
Do those statements sound Egotistical and Full of Self?
In some ways they should, with the exception of EGO. The writings of Hill, Haanel, Marden and Mandino all point to fact that EGO (as defined by society) is devoid of a person who Knows the Keys to unlocking and mastering the Subconscious Mind.
Being Full of Self is a good. We cannot give to others that which we do NOT possess. The Law if Dual Thought explains that unique life force very well.
From Week #2 The Master Key, by Charles Haanel
…..3. The subconscious soul, like a benevolent stranger, works and makes provision for our benefit, pouring only the mature fruit into our lap; thus ultimate analysis of thought processes shows that the subconscious is the theatre of the most important mental phenomena.
4. It is through the subconscious that Shakespeare must have perceived, without effort, great truths which are hidden from the conscious mind of the student; that Phidias fashioned marble and bronze; that Raphael painted Madonnas and Beethoven composed symphonies.
5. Ease and perfection depend entirely upon the degree in which we cease to depend upon the consciousness; playing the piano, skating, operating the typewriter, the skilled trades, depend for their perfect execution on the process of the sub-conscious mind. The marvel of playing a brilliant piece on the piano, while at the same time conducting a vigorous conversation, shows the greatness of our subconscious powers.
But we must Exercise that talent…….
and this what The Master Key Master Mind has helped so many understand.

On Sunday, October 5, 2014 I eagerly attended the Week Two Webinar of The Master Key Master Mind Alliance, conducted by Mark Januszewski and his dynamic crew.
“I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand. Henceforth will I apply ALL my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy. ” ― Og Mandino, The Greatest Salesman in the World
The first week’s assignment was to read and digest Week One of The Master Key, start reading, daily, Scroll One of theThe Greatest Salesman in the World, and that continuesfor 30 days, and redefine our Definite Major Purposes (DMP) and set up our 3 x 5 card system to help focus on Habit Change and Focus.
Item #1
I was interested in the fact I have probably been using the wrong WORD in defining my DMP. Over the past 50+ years I have used the word Freedom associated with one of my two Definite Major Purposes (DMP), but thanks to Mark Januszewski and his direction, the more appropriate word would be Autonomy.
Is there a difference?
Since our Subconscious Mind does NOT know Good from Bad, Big to Little maybe NOT; but there are subtle differences, according to accepted definitions:
Autonomy:
Freedom from external control or influence; independence
Personal (or individual) autonomy should also be distinguished from freedom, although again, there are many renderings of these concepts, and certainly some conceptions of positive freedom will be equivalent to what is often meant by autonomy (Berlin 1969, 131– 34).
Generally, one can distinguish autonomy from freedom in that the latter concerns the ability to act, without external or internal constraints and also (on some conceptions) with sufficient resources and power to make one’s desires effective. Cited from http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/autonomy-moral
So I have readjustment my Subconscious and Conscious mind to see
Autonomy.
Do you think it is a major difference? Express your thoughts in comments below.
Item #2
The next direction discussed was the impact and importance of staying the course of Og Mandino’s 10 Scrolls, from his 1968 book The Greatest Salesman in the World.
The book directs the reader to read the Scrolls, starting with Scroll One, 3 x’s a day for 30 days. I know that seems a bit sophomoric in this “sophisticated, fast paced” environment…….
BUT
The object of that exercise is TO ESTABLISH habit. And they are GOOD Habits. Our Subconscious Mind (“Subby” as named on the Webinar) does not know the difference of Good or Bad nor from where the content or data originates. If we allow or Conscious mind to provide Garbage to our Subby, garbage becomes our thought, and since thoughts are things, and things manifest, we end up being purveyors of Not-So Valuable Content and Influence. (CRAP)
So the repetition of the scrolls has merit as a Proved method of creating new Positive Habits.
Do you agree or disagree?
Would you Read something daily for 30 days and 10 Months

“By far the greatest discovery of all the centuries is the power of thought.” – Charles F Haanel –
As the ongoing challenge requires, each week we are directed to read several and apply the Exercises offered in Charles Haanel’s Classic, The Master Key (remember, FREE copies always available here)
Since The Master Key was originally published as a 24-week correspondence course in 1912. It was later published in book form in 1916 by Psychology Publishing, St. Louis and The Master Key Institute, New York, I am used to using the words WEEK when referencing the “Chapters”. Interesting side note that it cost $1.00 per week. The subscriber would complete the exercise and send back with $1.00 for the next “Week’s Chapter”
Week Two focuses on the Subconscious Mind (Subby) and has always been a Favorite of mine for review since first reading in 1960.
Week 2 The Master Key Paragraph 7:
7. The value of the subconscious is enormous; it inspires us; it warns us; it furnishes us with names, facts and scenes from the storehouse of memory. It directs our thoughts, tastes, and accomplishes tasks so intricate that no conscious mind, even if it had the power, has the capacity for.

I recorded the entire The Master Key several years ago and is Available as Complete Download.

Well, do you agree Selling is the Word’s Oldest Occupation?
And if so, everyone should be able to Master the skills of Selling, since there must be a wealth of information available.
I knew at an early age (10) that I really enjoyed SELLING because I was led to believe, and still do, Selling is an honorable vocation. What other vocation can offer the enjoyment of a life filled with the daily knowledge they had contributed to the well-being and satisfaction of so many people?
I recently joined a 400 person member course offered by Mark Januszewski and the crew at The World’s Laziest Networker. I had the privilege of hooking up with Mark almost 10 years ago because we share a Passion for Napoleon Hill, Charles Haanel, and Og Mandino.
The course is called The Master Key Master Mind Allianceand runs 26 weeks with a focus on developing YOUR Business Mindset. It is very structured and requires the 400 “members” to read, study and discuss the works of Charles Haanel and Og Mandino, apply some direct mental exercises, learn how to pay it forward and attend Webinars weekly.
I determine to render more and better service, each day, than I am being paid to render. Those that reach the top are the ones who are not content with doing only what is required of them.” ― Og Mandino, The Greatest Salesman In The World
It was the re-introduction to Og Mandino’s famous books that energized me since I purchased the book when first published in 1968 and it was most instrumental in MY fine tuning my developing Sales Skills and I credit to being pivotal for my Success in the SELLING Business for the past 50 years.
I actually followed the directions of the Book, The Greatest Salesman in the World…..
Reading each scroll daily for a month and applying a daily action to my Definite major Purpose, declared in 1960 thanks to the direction of Think and Grow Rich.
What defines SELLING as the Oldest Profession?
If you think about it, everything that has happened (good or bad) to mankind, over the eons, has been the result of a Sale.
Do you agree?
Og Mandinobooks intensify that fact and cause those with a burning desire, to improve the Skill Sets required to SELL effectively.
Selling is most rewarding, not only with an opportunity to appreciate potentially unlimited income, but also the sense of real accomplishment and the knowledge that your skill has SOLVED the problem initiated by the Prospect (potential customer).
My personal experience has proved that it is NOT the money received that provides the sense of well-being from being a Salesman. It is the sense of knowing you have Helped Others solve a problem they possessed. Don’t misunderstand that compensation is important.
It is that compensation that allows a professional sales person to grow and help others.
“Wealth should never be your goal in life. True wealth is of the heart, not of the purse.”― Og Mandino, The Greatest Salesman In The World
The basis of Mandino’s first book The Greatest Salesman in the World is the 10 scrolls available to the protagonist, Hafid as he embarks on his quest to become The World’s Greatest Salesman in the World.
These scrolls are to read 3Xs daily, once out loud. It is that “requirement” that stops most people from being impacted positively by this book.
I followed the exercises several times in the past decades and have been renewed in energy and success each time.
From Scroll One, The Greatest Salesman in the World Today:
I begin a new life. Today I shed my old skin, which hath, too long, suffered the bruises of failure and the wounds of mediocrity. Today I am born anew and my birthplace is a vineyard where there is fruit for all. Today I will pluck grapes of wisdom from the tallest and fullest vines in the vineyard, for these were planted by the wisest of my profession who have come before me, generation upon generation. Today I will savor the taste of grapes from these vines and verily I will swallow the seed of success buried in each and new life will sprout within me……..
Get more from the Book
My reading of Scroll One
It is really interesting that this BOOK does little to share the SKILLS of SELLING, but it does lay the foundation and direction to BECOME the person who OWNS control of their Habits and Thought processes.My experiences have proved that my OWNING the power to perceive and conceive have been crucial in my ability to Sell easily and have customers who felt very well served. In fact, doing the best job possible assures your customer base to return and NOT spend your life worrying about continually building new “lists”
More on that idea in a later post
Are you ready to invest a little Time and Energy to increase your Selling Skills and Life Skills?
I really recommend the small investment of capital (as little as $3.00). I enjoyed getting the Kindle Version lately now that I am becoming more technically savvy.
