The title of this post is a quote from the book “The Master Key System“, By Charles F. Haanel. Click on the link and you can download the book for free from “The Secret” website.

I’ve been studying this book with my sisters and some friends, and it has been very eye-opening! Things that I’ve heard or read many times before, are explained just a little bit better in this book, which was written in 1912. Can you imagine that? Almost 100 years ago, the concepts that we’re learning now, was being taught and explained. What happened? Did these lessons not get taught to enough people? No, I think that we just weren’t ready for it yet. I think, much like all children, we hadn’t hit “the age of reason”. We were still to young, to disconnected from each other. I know, so many people think that the internet is making us more disconnected from each other, but I disagree. I think that we’re becoming so much closer, closer than we’ve ever been.

I think that it has to do with two things. 1. Our bodies are filled with electrical currents, and we’re connecting to the internet through electrical currents. I think that because we are physically connecting to our computers, and connecting to the internet, that we’re able to make an indirect physical connection to each other, one on one. And 2. Because it’s deceptivelly “anonymous”, we tend to be more open, vulnerable, and true online, than we ever are in person. We give more of ourselves to each other because we aren’t seeing the reaction of the other person.

So that physical connection that brings us together, enhances the intimate emotional bond between the individuals who are connecting online. It’s that intamcy that is what’s needed for this new reality to come into being. It’s the invisible bond that we’ve always been in contact with, that we’ve made it “real” through these computers & the internet. Through sites like Co-Creating Our Reality, our connection to each other and to The Source are getting stronger. As that connection gets stronger, we get closer to creating the New Reality. That connection is the persistent concentration that is neccessary to accomplish our goal.

Exciting, isn’t it!

I’ve been on a path of enlightenment for more than 18 years now. I’ve read literally tons of books, new age, spiritual, self-help, occult, and anything else I could get my hands on. They all say basically the same thing that “The Secret” does, but there is a difference in this book, something that none of the others have. That’s mass appeal.

Yes, there are some people who would say that it’s just more of the same, and to a certain extent, it is. However, this book puts the Universal Laws that I’ve read about many times before, in a way that makes it seem just a little more practical, a little more reachable. That’s why so many people have read the book, and why it has changed so many lives.

It doesn’t matter how many times you hear the same thing over again, what matters is when you stop hearing it, and start living it. Think back to when you were a teenager. I’m sure there is that one thing your parents kept drilling in your heads, that one thing that you HATED to hear, over and over. Now that you are an adult, you probably understand it better, maybe even heard the same words coming out of your mouth to your teenager. I know I have. The Secret is just like that. Not really “new” information, but it makes more sense now.

For a lot of people, it’s their first taste of some of the Universal Laws mentioned in the book. For them, this is a fantastic book. It doesn’t put any religious leanings in it, so it’ll appeal to just about everyone. It’s very easy to understand, and gives a lot of wonderful resources to expand further in your studies.

For the person who’s more familiar with the Universal Laws, this is a good quick read, like a refresher course. For me, it was like a confirmation of my beliefs and understandings. It also gave me very real, very easy techniques to implement into my everyday life.

So if you’re looking for something new, this really isn’t all that new. But if you’re looking for easy to understand, step by step guide, for the newbie or expert, this is a great book. I recommend this book to just about everyone I know.

This will be my blog where I will be talking about “The Secret” and how it is working in my life. I’ve been studying “The Secret” and learning about it with my sisters. But I need more than just a couple of places where I can learn about it, I need someplace to expound and brainstorm on it. Where I can talk about my wishes out loud, and cry about my stumbles along the way. I hope that at the very least, someone can see that they aren’t the only ones going through these things.
