The Master Key Exercises
I just completed reading and listening to the Master Key System by Charles Haanel. Every chapter (there are 24 total) concludes with an exercise designed to help you apply what you just learned. Of the 24 exercises I tried maybe 12 and of those 12 I did not really practice them everyday for a week. I've spoken to a few people who have also read the Master Key System and had a similar experience. How can we know if this system is effective if we don't follow the simple instructions? So I'm going to post each exercise here and commit to actually performing each exercise everyday for a week and then return to summarize my experience.
July 5th, 2011, Week 1 Select a room where you can be alone and undisturbed; sit erect, comfortably, but do not lounge; let your thoughts roam where they will but be perfectly still for from fifteen minutes to half an hour; continue this for three or four days or for a week until you secure full control of your physical being. Many will find this extremely difficult; others will conquer with ease, but it is absolutely essential to secure complete control of the body before you are ready to progress. Next week you will receive instructions for the next step; in the meantime you must have mastered this one.
I'll be back in a week to tell you what I think...
