Challenging and fun week

Week 5 of MKMME continues to challenge and produce results. This week the challenge of being the observer and having no opinions has been added. I found that I am very opinionated. I never realized how much of the conversations I engage in are mostly a back and forth of opinions, in an effort to disagree or agree. I am enjoying the role of observer and the peace that not giving an opinion is providing me. Becoming a better listener is rewarding, and I am grateful for that improvement. My brain has less to deal with and that has a welcome freeing affect giving me peace and more room for other thoughts.

Feeling the Changes

The discoveries on this journey feel good and are rewarding. As I am working through week 4 of MKE I am seeing definite changes that I know will be lasting. There are a couple of those changes that I would like to address. The chores that I had performed the previous weeks needed my thought and prompting. This weeks chore or now renamed a service, became automatic without mental effort to make it happen. That service just became part of the flow of a normal day and was completed earlier in the week as opposed to the end of the week as the previous weeks choirs. I just paused after it had been done with pride and joy. That felt really good and promising. The good habits are becoming established.
The next good habit that is becoming a part of my day was the regular reading. Today as I was not on my normal lunch schedule and as lunch “time” passed I felt the prompting to read. My subconscious was speaking to me saying ”hey its time to read.” I was not even paying attention to the clock. I am really loving how this journey is taking hold.

“Thus a new and good habit is born, for when an act becomes easy through constant repetition it becomes a pleasure to perform……” Og Mandino

Another huge change that I am excited about is the completion of daily work and thought for almost 4 weeks now and it is becoming habit. That is a huge thing for me to have stuck with this process. I was a great starter of things but lacked completion. I have consumed many books on self improvement in trying to find my answer yet they did not seem to stick. I have watched countless coaching videos, but something was missing. The thing for me they missed was the process and guidance that MKE has given me. I know with full faith that I am in the right place and on the correct journey. I am in a harmonious place walking the path that I want to be on. Again that is life changing and exciting. I will complete todays thoughts with one of my favorite statements in the Blue Print Builder “ I will engage in no transaction which does not benefit all whom it affects”

The Observer

I have enjoyed my new role as the conscious observer. I have encountered old habits that I wish to change and have found other habits that where programmed into my subconscious without my choice. It has been a very interesting journey. One of my directions in life is better heath. Tuesday at 9:30 as I was driving and I was in automatic mode heading to pick up a burrito with a coke just like I had been doing previously. Yet since I was on alert it occurred to me this was not the habit I wanted to continue and I was able to turn away from my burrito run. That decision felt really good and proves I can remove old habits and replace them with good habits. That moment confirms for me that MKE is working and is the guide that I am so excited to be participating in.

How do I choose?

Master Keys continues in week two to deliver new incites, observations, reflections, and awakenings. How do I choose the topic for this week? My old blueprint is pushing back as I am building the new habits to create my new blueprint. As of this moment the Key that is on my mind and has put me on alert is that my conscious is the gatekeeper and guardian of my subconscious. I knew of this truth at some level, but I was not staying aware of the content that I allowed past the gate. I was on automatic. That is such a scary thought now that I am clear on how my blueprint was formed. Even more concerning is that others had input to my blueprint when I was a child. I now have the most important task of being on guard and keeping watch of my own thoughts as well as the content that I consume and allow into my subconscious. My future and my legacy depend on that vigilance. The method I will use to complete the task is intentional awareness and complete observation so that I make good conscious decisions on what I accept or reject.
Thank you again Master Key Experience for the directions and solid plan to create the life I have always dreamed of.

Excited to get rolling

MKE is what I was looking for and what I needed. After over two years of searching and reading many self help books and buying many coaching programs I had such small gains in myself for the amount of time I had invested. Old blueprints and patterns still persisted. The MKE has already been a game changer on week one. The daily victories of doing the work and being guided by such amazing coaches have reignited my hope that I can succeed, and my future is what I choose it to be. I am so excited about the changes I will be able to make in myself. I wake up every day before the alarm without laying in bed dreading the day. I am full of gratitude that MKE is the focus and the guide that I have been searching for.
