the master key system part 12 part 12 is enclosed here with in the fourth
paragraph you'll find the following statement you must first have the
knowledge of your power second the courage to dare third the
faith to do if you concentrate upon thoughts given if you give them your
entire attention you'll find a world of meaning in each sentence and will
attract yourself other thoughts and harmony with them and you'll assume
grasp the full significance of the vital knowledge upon which you are
concentrating knowledge does not apply itself we as individuals must take the
application and the application consists in fertilizing the thought with a living
purpose the time and thought which most persons waste an aimless effort would
accomplish wonders if properly directed with some special object in view in
order to do this it is necessary to Center your mental force upon a specific
thought and hold it there to the exclusion of all other thoughts if
you've ever looked through the viewfinder on a video camera you find
that when the object was not in focus the impression was indistinct and
possibly blurred but when the proper focus was obtained the picture was clear
and distinct this illustrates the power of concentration
unless you can concentrate upon the object which you have in view you will
have but a hazy indifferent vague and distinct and blurred outline of your
"the master key system" Charles f. haanel part twelve law of attraction
ideal and the result will be in accordance with your mental picture
there is no purpose in life that cannot be accomplished through a scientific
understanding of the creative power of thought this power to think is common to
all man is because he thinks man's power to think is infinite consequently his
creative power is unlimited we know that thought is building for us
the thing we think of and actually bringing it nearer then we find it
difficult to banish fear anxiety or discouragement all of which are powerful
thought forces and which continually send the things we desire further away
so that is often one step forward and two steps backward the only way to keep
from going backward is to keep going forward eternal vigilance is the price
of success there are three steps and each one is absolutely essential you
must first have the knowledge of your power
second the courage to dare third the faith to do with this as a basis you can
construct an ideal business an ideal home ideal friends an ideal environment
you are not restricted as to material or cost thought is omnipotent and has the
power to draw on the infinite bank of primary substance for all that it
requires infinite resources are therefore at your command but your ideal
must be sharp clear-cut definite to have one ideal today another tomorrow and a
third next week means to scatter your forces and accomplish nothing your
result will be a meaningless a chaotic combination of wasted material
unfortunately this is the result which many are securing and the cause is
the master key system Charles f. haanel part twelve "law of attraction"
self-evident if a sculptor started out with a piece of marble and a chisel and
changed his ideal every 15 minutes what result would he expect and why should
you expect any different result in molding the greatest and most plastic of
all substances the only real substance a result of this indecision and negative
thought is often found in the loss of material wealth supposed independence
which required many years of toil and effort suddenly disappears is often
found that money and property are not independence at all on the contrary the
only independence is found to be a practical working knowledge of the
creative power of thought this practical working method cannot come to you until
you learn that the only real power which you can have is the power to adjust
yourself to divine and unchangeable principles you cannot change the
infinite but you can come into an understanding of natural laws the reward
of this understanding is a conscious realization of your ability to adjust
your thought faculties with the universal thought which is omnipresent
your ability to cooperate with his omnipotence will indicate the degree of
success with which you meet the power of thought as many counterfeits which are
more or less fascinating but the results are harmful
instead of helpful of course worry fear and all negative thoughts produce a crop
after their kind those who harbor thoughts of this kind
must inevitably reap what they have sown again there are the phenomena seekers
who Gorman dies on the so called proofs and demonstrations obtained and
the master key system Charles f. haanel part twelve law of attraction
materializing seances they throw up in their mental doors and soak themselves
in the most poisonous currents which can be found in the psychic world they do
not seem to understand that it is the ability to become negative receptive and
passive and thus drain themselves of all their vital forces which enables them to
bring about these vibratory thought forms there are also the hindu
worshipers who see in the materializing phenomena which are performed by the so
called add ups a source of power forgetting our never seeming to realize
that as soon as the will is withdrawn the forms wither and the vibratory
forces of which they are composed vanish telepathy or thought transference has
received considerable attention but as it requires a negative mental state on
the part of the receiver the practice is harmful a thought may be sent with the
intention of hearing or sing but it will bring the penalty attached to the
inversion of the principle involved in many instances hypnotism is positively
dangerous to the subject as well as the operator no one familiar with the laws
governing in the mental world would think of attempting to dominate the will
of another for by doing so he will gradually but
surely divest himself his own power all of these perversions have their
temporary satisfaction and for some a keen fascination but there is an
infinitely greater fascination and a true understanding of the world of power
within a power which increases with use is permanent instead of fleeing which
not only is potent as a remedial agency to bring about the remedy for past error
or results of wrong thinking but as a prophylactic agency protecting us from
the master key system Charles f. haanel part twelve law of attraction
all manner and form of danger and finally as an actual creative force with
which we can build new conditions and new environment the law is that thought
will correlate with its object and bring forth in the material world the
correspondence of the thing thought or produced in the mental world
we then discern the absolute necessity of seeing that every thought has the
inherent germ of truth in order that the law of growth will bring into
manifestation good for good alone can confer any permanent power the principle
which gives the thought the dynamic power to correlate with its object and
therefore to master every adverse human experience is the law of attraction
which is another name for love this is an internal and fundamental
principle and Herenton all things in every system of philosophy and every
religion and in every science there's no getting away from the law of love it is
feeling that imparts vitality to thought feeling is desire and desire is love
thought impregnated with love becomes invincible we find this truth emphasized
wherever the power of thought is understood the universal mind is not
only intelligence but it is substance and this substance is the attractive
force which brings electrons together by the law of attraction so that they form
atoms the atoms in turn are brought together by the same law and form
molecules molecules take objective forms and so we find that the law of love is
the creative force behind every manifestation not only of atoms but of
worlds of the universe of everything of which the imagination can form any
conception is the operation of this marvelous law of attraction which has
"the master key system" Charles f. haanel part twelve "law of attraction"
caused men in all ages and at all times to believe that there must be some
personal being who responded to their petitions and desires and manipulated
events in order to comply with their requirements it is the combination of
thought and love which forms the irresistible force called the law of
attraction all natural laws are irresistible the law of gravitation or
electricity or any other law operates with mathematical exactitude there is no
variation it is only the channel of distribution which may be imperfect
if a bridge falls would you not attribute the collapse to any variation
of the laws of gravitation if a light fails us we do not conclude that the
laws governing electricity cannot be depended on and if the law of attraction
seems to be imperfectly demonstrated by an inexperienced or uninformed person we
are not to conclude that the greatest and most infallible law upon which the
entire system of creation depends has been suspended we should rather conclude
that a little more understanding of the laws required for the same reason that a
correct solution of difficult problem in mathematics is not always readily and
easily obtained things are created in the mental or spiritual world before
they appear in the outward act or event by the simple process of governing our
thought forces today we help create the events which will come into our lives in
the future perhaps even tomorrow
educated desires the most potent means of bringing into action the law of
the master key system Charles f. haanel part twelve law of attraction
attraction man is so constituted that he must first create the tools or
implements which he gains the power to think the mind cannot comprehend an
entirely new idea until a corresponding vibratory brain cell has been prepared
to receive it this explains why it is so difficult for us to receive or
appreciate any entirely new idea we have no brain cell capable of receiving it we
are therefore incredulous we do not believe it
if therefore you have not been familiar with the omnipotence of the law of
attraction and the scientific method by which you can be put into operation or
if you've not been familiar with the unlimited possibilities which it opens
to those who are unable to take advantage of the resources it offers
begin now and create the necessary brain cells which will enable you to
comprehend the unlimited powers which may be yours by cooperating with natural
law this is done by concentration or attention the intention governs the
attention power comes through repose it is by concentration that deep thoughts
wise speech and all forces of high potential ality are accomplished it is
in the silence that you get into touch with the omnipotent power of the
subconscious mind from which all power is evolved he who desires wisdom power
or permit a success of any kind will find it only within it is an unfoldment
the master key system Charles f. haanel part twelve law of attraction
the unthinking may conclude that the silence is very simple and easily
attained but it should be remembered that only in absolute silence may one
come into contact with divinity itself may learn of the unchangeable law and
open for himself the channels by which persistent practice and concentration
lead to perfection this weak go to the same room take the
same chair the same position as previously be sure to relax let go both
mentally and physically always do this never try to do any mental work under
pressure see that there are no tense muscles or nerves that you are entirely
comfortable now realize your unity with the omnipotence get in touch with this
power come into a deep and vital understanding appreciation and
realization of the fact that your ability to think is your ability to act
upon the universal mind and bring it into manifestation realize that it will
meet any and every requirement that you have exactly the same potential ability
which an individual ever did have or ever will have because each is about an
expression or manifestation of the one all our parts of the whole there is no
difference in kind or quality the only difference being one of degree thought
cannot conceive of anything that may not be brought to expression he who first
uttered it may only be the suggester but the doer will appear Woodrow Wilson
