This is essentially what Charles F. Haanel is teaching in The Master Key System: the power of thought and the power of thinking.

This is what The Master Key System is really about.

It’s not about “manifesting” something from nothing.

It’s not about using the awesome power of the Universe to supply you with trinkets.

It’s about learning how to use your awesome power of thought — your ability to think — to solve your problems great and small.

So, how do you get tangible results with all of this?

How do you get to the point where you can see and enjoy the fruits of your labours?

Here is point #22 from Week Thirteen:

22. In the first place, we must put our knowledge into practice. Nothing can be accomplished in any other way. The athlete may read books and lessons on physical training all his life, but unless he begins to give out strength by actual work he will never receive any strength; he will eventually get exactly what he gives; but he will have to give it first. It is exactly the same with us; we will get exactly what we give, but we shall have to give it first. It will then return to us many fold, and the giving is simply a mental process, because thoughts are causes and conditions are effects; therefore in giving thoughts of courage, inspiration, health, or help of any kind we are setting causes in motion which will bring about their effect.

It begins with a thought.

You must then put your knowledge into practice.

You must work — and probably work hard. Nothing comes for free and we must give before we can get.

Before a book hits the shelves, before one penny is made by a publisher or author, countless hours and many dollars are invested into a book.

Before you see the band that you love hit the stage at their sold-out stadium concert, that band practiced for hours on end, they played seedy bars where the audience consisted of a few drunks, and they sent countless demos to record companies and agents.

Read the biographies of your favorite actors and actresses.

Discover the stories about the people you enjoy.

See what it took for them to make it to the “top.”

You’ll find the Haanel “formula” within them.

Just as you will find it within yourself.
