It is my privilege to enclose herewith Part One of The Master Key System. Would you bring into your life more power, get the power consciousness, more health, get the health consciousness, more happiness, get the happiness consciousness. Live the spirit of these things until they become yours by right. It will then become impossible to keep them from you. The

person to another, were a closely guarded secret in Europe for decades - a century ago. They were considered essentially secret wisdom teachings amongst primarily only the very wealthy, a testament to the worth of the esoteric techniques disclosed. In 1912, Charles F. Haanel published this body of knowledge as a work which he presented as The Master Key System. This material was distributed as a weekly correspondence course. Twenty-Four parts, including a transmittal letter and questions and answers, were sent to students who sought more out of life.
The Master Key System had been out of print for some time. Except for a few copies available in rare book stores (where the prices reflect the rarity). Motivational speakers and gurus have used this material as the foundation for seminars that cost as much as $20,000 per day to sponsor.
Aggressive companies seeing the power of the course have placed it on audiocassette, enhancing the original work, making it more “21st century” compatible, and selling this material from $400 to over $1,000. Some include on-site seminars and some include weekly telephone mentoring. But even with more attempts to bring this material to the limelight, only a very small percentage of the world’s population has ever seen this material. It’s no wonder the ultra rich and incredibly successful individuals stay that way… these secrets have been guarded since they were first introduced.
Just look at the “self improvement” section at your local bookstore, and you’d think you’d have to read a hundred self-development books to stand the slightest chance at achieving success.
Fragments of Haanel’s work appear in the material and messages of present day gurus like Napoleon Hill, Earl Nightingale, Tony Robbins, Stephen Covey, and countless others. Unfortunately, these “fragments” often turn out to be just watered-down versions of Haanel’s work.
But, somehow, there is a significant step beyond awakening your inner giant, finding the habits of the successful, reading the science of getting rich or listening to the strangest secret. Motivational sessions are great… but have proven to be only temporary. That is why, after “being motivated”, we find ourselves battling the same struggles when the motivational “pump you up” session wanes?

1. That much gathers more is true on every plane of existence and that loss leads to greater loss is equally true.
2. Mind is creative, and conditions, environment and all experiences in life are the result of our habitual or predominant mental attitude.
3. The attitude of mind necessarily depends upon what we think. Therefore, the secret of all power, all achievement and all possession depends upon our method of thinking.
4. This is true because we must “be” before we can “do,” and we can “do” only to the extent which we “are,” and what we “are” depends upon what we “think.”
5. We cannot express powers that we do not possess. The only way by which we may secure possession of power is to become conscious of power, and we can never become conscious of power until we learn that all power is from within.
6. There is a world within – a world of thought and feeling and power; of light and life and beauty and, although invisible, its forces are mighty.
7. The world within is governed by mind. When we discover this world we shall find the solution for every problem, the cause for every effect; and since the world within is subject to our control, all laws of power and possession are also within our control.
8. The world without is a reflection of the world within. What appears without is what has been found within. In the world within may be found infinite Wisdom, infinite Power, infinite Supply of all that is necessary, waiting for unfoldment, development and expression. If we recognize these potentialities in the world within they will take form in the world without.
9. Harmony in the world within will be reflected in the world without by harmonious conditions, agreeable surroundings, the best of everything. It is the foundation of health and a necessary essential to all greatness, all power, all attainment, all achievement and all success.
10. Harmony in the world within means the ability to control our thoughts, and to determine for ourselves how any experience is to affect us.
11. Harmony in the world within results in optimism and affluence; affluence within results in affluence without.
12. The world without reflects the circumstances and the conditions of the consciousness within.
13. If we find wisdom in the world within, we shall have the understanding to discern the marvelous possibilities that are latent in this world within, and we shall be given the power to make these possibilities manifest in the world without.
14. As we become conscious of the wisdom in the world within, we mentally take possession of this wisdom, and by taking mental possession we come into actual possession of the power and wisdom necessary to bring into manifestation the essentials necessary for our most complete and harmonious development.
15. The world within is the practical world in which the men and women of power generate courage, hope, enthusiasm, confidence, trust and faith, by which they are given the fine intelligence to see the vision and the practical ski

Abundance, therefore, depends upon a recognition of the laws of Abundance, and the fact that Mind is not only the creator, but the only creator of all there is
