The Master Key System

The Master Key System by Charles F. Haanel


This book was the basis of the movie "The Secret", and its a shame that it wasn't talked about more in that movie. It was written in 1912, and i am amazed at the information found in this book. Honestly when you look at some of the information coming out of people from the 1800s/1900s it was a giant spiritual revolution. Charles Haanel lays the ground work for success and writes about how everything we see in the world today is created with our thoughts and that our beliefs, fears, and issues are directly affected by our thoughts. In the book he describes a 24 week course that shows you how to change your thoughts to better connect with the cosmic consciousness that is inside of you. Great book! But don't read it as a book.

I am still trying to find the original copy, there are some being sold on ebay for over 1000 dollars. But the book was over 400 pages long and i think the one in that link comes closest to the original (i hate it when they revise these kind of books for the 21st century)

Gee thats a good find. I had no idea some of that stuff was so old.

This book has arrived. I have read the intro and most of the first 'lesson". Unfortunately I would say that that which I have learned, contradicts that which he seeks to "teach". I don't know if it will alter the thrust of the book, but I have no desire to have my ego (or what he calls mind) control my soul. (What he calls sub-conscious) I have every intention of it being the other way around.

love,
Geoff

I have to agree it does play more into the role of the ego, still i found it to be a great book on personal motivation and determination to succeed in your goals. I am still looking for one of the originals, i feel like there have been many changes to the original book.
