Tony Michalski's Master Key Coaching

“My method is different. I do not rush into actual work. When I get a new idea, I start at once building it up in my imagination, and make improvements and operate the device in my mind. When I have gone so far as to embody everything in my invention, every possible improvement I can think of, and when I see no fault anywhere, I put into concrete form the final product of my brain.”

– Nikola Tesla

Haanel wrote about Tesla in Week Seven of The Master Key System.

10. The inventor visualizes his idea in exactly the same manner. For instance, Nikola Tesla, he with the giant intellect, one of the greatest inventors of all ages, the man who has brought forth the most amazing realities, always visualizes his inventions before attempting to work them out. He does not rush to embody them in form and then spend his time in correcting defects. Having first built up the idea in his imagination, he holds it there as a mental picture, to be reconstructed and improved by his thought. “In this way,” he writes in the Electrical Experimenter, “I am enabled to rapidly develop and perfect a conception without touching any- thing. When I have gone so far as to embody in the invention every possible im- provement I can think of, and see no fault anywhere, I put into concrete the prod- uct of my brain. Invariably my devise works as I conceived it should; in twenty years there has not been a single exception.”

How is this mental accuracy — this mental clarity — obtained?

Haanel wrote,

13. Clearness and accuracy are obtained only by repeatedly having the image in mind. Each repeated action renders the image more clear and accurate than the preceding, and in proportion to the clearness and accuracy of the image will the outward manifestation be. You must build it firmly and securely in your mental world—the world within—before it can take form in the world without, and you can build nothing of value even in the mental world unless you have the proper material. When you have the material you can build anything you wish, but make sure of your material. You cannot make broadcloth from shoddy.

Matt Schmoldt

Everyday I take a break from my work when I get to the point of being tired of what I am doing, and I usually go play basketball. The breaks that I enjoy the most are when I am alone on the court. Uninterrupted.

I shoot, shot after shot. I enjoy trying to perfect my shot. I have an inner desire to become gifted. I have come to the point where I know what I need to do to consistently make shots, but I just don’t consistently do what I need to do.

The rim lets me know how I am doing. I love having it’s instant feed back. The loud clang of the rim challenges me to become better, and the soft swish of the net rewards me.

But today, I realized that the rim’s instant feed back is unnecessary.

I realized that I already knew if the shot was off course even before it hits the rim. I know by how I feel during the shot. I know if it is too short, or sailing wide left, and I know if the shot is perfectly on track.

I realized that I was concentrating on the result and not on how I felt during the shot. I was fixed on making my next shot (the destination of the ball), but not on how I should feel during the shot (the journey).

When I let go of my fixation on making shots and instead focused on how I felt during the shots, an amazing thing happened. I made way more shots. Why? I got rid of my self imposed pressure on the result, and became free to follow how I felt during the journey. I didn’t care if I made or missed a shot; I only cared if I was focused on feeling what I knew I should be feeling during the shot.

Our lives are the same way. We want to succeed so badly that we become fixated on succeeding. Our every thought and desire is to succeed in whatever thing it is. Sometimes we want to succeed badly enough that we do things against our conscience and better judgement. You see this happening in our schools. Students want to pass a class without putting in the work, so they turn to cheating, and when they aren’t caught, they continue cheating.

The world has recently seen what this pattern of cheating leads to in the likes of Bernard Madoff and Allen Stanford. They wanted to succeed so badly in their financial businesses, that they lied and cheated for decades. They took their new investor’s money and gave it to their old investor’s, pretending that this money came from legitimate investments.

They let their fixation on succeeding rule their actions and look what it brought. It brought devastation to thousands of honest people who invested in their lies. It brought families heartache and devastation.

In the words of Joshua Marcus Manuel, “It hurts to look at yourself in the mirror and hate yourself, look into the mirror and wonder what ever happened to that smile that used to shine so bright. When you look at yourself, you see this version of ‘you’ that your mind has created, someone that has become so distant and cold that nobody wants to be around. Empty eyes. Fragile bones. The only thing you have left are the lies you tell yourself everyday to survive, lies that have become your painful reality, lies that will swallow you whole and crush your insides, lies that have turned you into someone you never wanted to be.”

Let go. Let go of those fixations that are preventing you from living a successful life. The way to success and happiness comes from letting go and following your heart, from being in harmony with yourself.

Look at what this did for Mother Teresa. For over 45 years, she ministered to the poor and the sick. She lead 610 missions in 123 countries for people with AIDS, leprosy and other illnesses. She dedicated her life to being in harmony with her conscience; she was her best self.

What things do you need to let go of?

Let go of them.

What things does your heart ache to achieve?

Achieve those things of your heart and live a life of success in harmony and happiness. Remember, “It is better to deserve honors and not have them than to have them and not deserve them.” (Mark Twain) and “A great man shows his greatness by the way he treats little men.” (Thomas Carlyle)

About the Article’s Author: Matt Schmoldt currently attends Utah State University in Logan and is studying marketing. He loves life, his family, his heaven, and his sports (golf & basketball). He also runs a necktie website on the side which teaches people how to tie a tie.

Tony’s Comments: If you’re doing the exercises in The Master Key System, then you know that quite often Haanel instructs you to let go, both mentally and physically. This is a method of relaxation, which is somewhat key to truly understanding and getting results from Haanel’s philosophy.

When I am consulting with Master Key Coaching clients, one of the things we often do is practicing letting go. I’ve seen it do some amazing things. As one lets go, they lose the tension and they clear their mind. When that happens, they are not “tied” to the goal in a debilitating way; rather, they allow themselves to move fluidly and with agility.

Try it! Let go.

In The Master Key Workbook, I wrote

Many people dwell on the past. “It’s not my fault, Your Honor. I had a bad childhood.” Have you heard that before? How about “My mother was never there. She didn’t love me enough.” Have you heard a person explain with that excuse why they encounter one bad relationship after another?

Let go of the past. It is gone. Bring yourself into the Now. Why dwell on something that happened many years ago? If you’ve encountered failures, then try something new! The movie Vanilla Sky provides us with a wonder- ful thing to remember.

Every passing minute is another chance to turn it all around.

What goes for the past is true of the future. If you are not making plans, then why are you worrying about the future? Worry and anxiety are some of the biggest wastes of mental energy. They cause us to fear and many times they throw us into a state of paralysis. Keep your thoughts courageous and in the Now. You will be happy that you did.

Letting go may not be easy at first, but with practice you’ll get there. Pretty soon, you’ll be able to let go with ease.

As Haanel wrote, “You will not succeed the first time you try, but practice makes perfect, in this as in everything else…”

There is a new web site in town.

Since I started doing weekly teleseminars — the Master Key Coaching Teleseminars — I built a web site where you can download and/or subscribe to the podcasts of the calls and comment on what was discussed.

You’ll find that web site at

www.tuneinunlockattain.com

I am very excited with these calls. In our first week, we had at one point sixty people on the call! About five people asked some very good questions — and I think I gave good answers. Give the call a listen and let me know what you think.

I plan to do these calls every Monday at 8:05 pm EST into the foreseeable future. As long as people come to listen and ask questions, I’ll do them. So please, if you have the time and/or if the time is convenient for you, join the call.

If you are unable to join the call because of scheduling conflicts or you’re in a very different time zone, then please download the audio file. You can still take part by leaving a comment. You can ask a question, make a comment, or even just say hello.

Once again, the web site is www.tuneinunlockattain.com.

Oh, to answer the question you may be asking yourself, the web site is that name because at the heart of it all, that’s what we’re learning to do here. We’re learning how to tune in to the power within ourselves. We’re learning how to unlock that power and use it. We’re doing those things so that we can attain the things (goals) that we want.

Join the Master Key Coaching Teleseminars Every Monday at 8:05 pm EST!

To join the call to listen and/or to ask a question, dial -

Phone number: 1-218-862-1300

Conference Code: 183292

Please let me know if I can be of service to you. All the BEST!

Have fun … Tony.

It is with great pleasure that I invite you to the very first Master Key Coaching Teleseminar. Many people have asked for this — a few even demanded it! — so here it is.

We will be conducting the calls weekly beginning on Monday, July 26 at 8:05 pm EST (Eastern Standard Time). The call should last about an hour and will include a short monologue by me followed by an open question and answer session.

To join the call to listen and/or to ask a question, dial this phone number -

1-218-862-1300

then enter the Conference Code -

183292

The topic of the first call will be an introduction to The Master Key System: What it is, what it isn’t, and how to use it to attain your goals.

I look forward to speaking with you and getting to know you over the course of these calls. In the meantime, here are a few more questions I received about these teleseminars.

Do these teleseminars replace your Master Key Coaching Program?

No. Not at all. The Master Key Coaching Program is one-on-one personal coaching. It’s the difference between taking a class and asking a question during class to having a personal tutor or meeting the teacher after class for one-on-one time. It’s the difference between working out with a group and hiring a personal trainer. In both cases, the latter is more effective, more intense, and you’ll get more out of it. Of course, it also requires much more commitment.

In other words, the Master Key Coaching Program and the Master Key Teleseminars are two different animals.

Click here to learn more about the Master Key Coaching Program.

Are you planning on having webinars?

Yes, we are. The Head Coach for the Master Key Coaching Program, James Spooner, will be running those. They will begin about two weeks after these teleseminars begin.

Can I ask any question at all during the call?

The calls will run like this: We’ll open the call and I will deliver a ten to twenty minute monologue. The topic of the monologue will be about a key point in The Master Key System, an observation I had with a Master Key Coaching client, something like that. I think that you’ll find them interesting and informative.

After that monologue, we’ll go into the questions and answers. I ask that the questions be “limited” to what the main topic of the evening is. For example, if we’re discussing something in “Week Two,” I don’t think it would be helpful to entertain questions pertaining to “Week Twenty-Two.” Does that make sense?

As many of you know, I’m pretty flexible with things. I am here to be a resource for you, so just about everything is fair game. I will do my best to accomodate everyone, answer all questions, and do both in a timely and efficient manner.

Will these calls be available as a download?

Yes, they will. I plan to make them available in two parts for you to download: the monologue and the question and answer session.

They will be available about one week after the call. I will provide a link to the web site where they will be hosted.

Can I invite my friends onto the call?

Sure! The more the merrier.

In case you’re wondering why 8:05 pm EST: It has been my experience that if something is scheduled on the hour, then a fairly large percentage of people are late. So, to help people a little bit, I am beginning the call at 8:05 pm.

You just remember to be there at 8 sharp!

I look forward to “seeing” you on the call. It will be fun!

Howard Bloom: The Usefulness Of Feeling Useless

I am a big fan of Howard Bloom. Not only is he smart, he is insightful. He brings together the various ideas that he discusses — from the worlds of biology, psychology, sociology, neurology, physics, economics, statistics, and many other fields – and presents them in ways that are useful and illuminating.

For those not familiar with Mr. Bloom, please look into his books: The Genius of the Beast: A Radical Re-vision of Capitalism; The Lucifer Principle: A Scientific Expedition Into the Forces of History; and Global Brain: The Evolution of Mass Mind from the Big Bang to the 21st Century.

Now, this “video” (I put that in quotes because it is an audio interview and there is no real video to go along with it), at least at first glance, may offend some. The name of the show (or the name of the YouTube user) is “The Amazing Atheist.” Please don’t let that sway you to not listen to all 90 minutes! I guarantee that you will find much of what they discuss to be useful and fascinating, and, at the very least, you will learn something new.

How does this apply to Haanel and The Master Key System?

How does this apply to Master Key Coaching?

How does it apply to the upcoming Master Key Teleseminars?

Give it a listen. I think it will be obvious when you’re about half way through.

If not, then please post a comment. I think this interview will lead to a good discussion.

I need your help with something. In the very near future, I am planning to offer free Master Key Coaching conference calls. This will be of great value to you because

• you will have the opportunity to ask questions,
• you will hear experts explaining the ins and outs of the Master Key System,
• you will learn how to apply Haanel’s philosophy to your life,
• you will be exposed to an environment that will keep you focused, motivated, and excited about attaining your goals,
• and you will receive all of this free of charge.

I can do this because of the great success I have encountered with my Master Key Coaching Program. I want to help you to succeed like so many of our clients have.

Right now, though, I need your help.

I need to know when you’d like to have these conference calls, how frequently you’d like them, and what pressing questions you’d like answered.

Please take the time to complete this online survey -

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/5LQZQTX

Once I have enough data, I will announce when the first call will be and all of the information you will need to join the call.

I am very excited about this. I plan for the calls to be short, sweet, and to the point, with a minimum of talking by me so as to allow you ample time to ask questions and have them answered thoroughly.

For now, please help so that I can schedule the best time so that the greatest number of people can attend. The URL for the survey is -
