Tapping the Source: Using the Master Key System for Abundance and Happiness

Rate this book
Easy to use, enjoyable to read, and proven effective, this is a revolutionary new method for taking advantage of the "law of attraction" drawn from the legendary Master Key System.Thanks to such books as Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich" and the recent best-selling "The Secret," millions of people now realize that success comes from more than just chance, fate, good connections, or even hard work. At the same time, these volumes don't offer a practical daily process for attaining your goals-and that's exactly what "Tapping the Source" provides. It teaches a daily method that stimulates the process for manifesting your dreams outlined in "The Secret." These techniques can be applied to any aspect of life, from sex to career to creativity. Just "tap into the source"-daily Manifestation Sessions, each totaling no more than three to five minutes-and live the life you want!What is the MASTER KEY SYSTEM?The genesis of the ideas in "Tapping the Source"-which are a natural extension of the concepts expounded upon in "The Secret"-is Charles Haanel's classic 1912 work, "The Master Key System." Although Napoleon Hill is popularly considered the father of the "law of attraction," a letter from Hill to Charles Haanel, reproduced in "Tapping the Source," thanks Haanel for his illuminating ideas. The letter is dated 1919, 18 years before "Think and Grow Rich" was published.

Notes for readers:

1. The book starts on page 52. Everything before then is irrelevant.

2. In fact, the book almost ends on page 52 also, because the summary is given there in seven steps. If you don't understand one of the points, skip to the relevant chapters.

3. The actual first instructions are given on page 61.

4. Step two's instructions are on page 75.

5. There doesn't seem to be instructions for step three.

6. Page 100 talks about the feeling focus of desire (step four) instead of the thought, and is most practical.

7. Step five is represented by a whole fascinating chapter. Does this prose manage to capture the captivating and mesmerising loveliness of Divine Grace? I don't think it does. In fact, I think it misses something Mysterious about the creative power of the universe, personally.

8. Pages 114-5 talk about how to work with the solar plexus to produce results in the outside world. This is really the mechanics of the book, after all, and step six also.

9. Finally, the book closes with suggestions for adding lovingness to the mix.

I suppose this book is really about how to get to know the god of the solar plexus, the god of the ego. And as such, it is perhaps successful.

Nice simple technique to connect to the universal subconscious mind. Very provocative research inside as well.

I’ve been binging the self help field this year — and this book brings together some of the best information and foundational principles I’ve been learning from pioneers like Napolean Hill, — and particularly Charles Haanel — a great insight how to utilise and connect to the source of power via the mind was really good. As that’s ultimately where and how the magic really happens by optimising our mindset primarily

Maybe not ground breaking to someone familiar with this type of work but authors had some interesting stories and fresh ways to get the teaching across which can help you bring things together and connect the dots.

To Our Continued Success!

This is a book talking about Charles Haanel and the Master keys and the details of the 7 steps to successfully tap into your source and manifest.

I found this very interesting and a good principle for meditation, quieting the mind and connected with our source.

For me, who can easily be distracted, I found this more engaging from chapter 5 onwards.

The steps are very helpful, and the focus breaths great. I will remember the 7 focus statements off by heart. Having a daily practice helps.

Totally opened my eyes about a lot of things.
In particular my main take aways were:
1) viewing the life and the work of Christ from a purely spiritual point of view
2) learning the meditation/manifestation flow in the booked opened new incredible doors for me and my family

Seems like the whole book is just expanding on a few ideas mentioned on Page 52. Not exactly my idea of a captivating book.

An excellent system in tapping your source. These three authors, Gladstone, Greninger, and Selby spell it out in easy to understand, easy to implement terms. The Master Key System for Abundance and Happiness originally written by Napoleon Hill's Mentor, Charles Haanel. A must read if you're seeking answers to Self.

Meh. It was largely a summation of Charles Haanel's Master Key System-- which they were up front with, but I am not sure why I would find any of their insights useful for myself. The book was 75% quotes from Haanel broken up with their own opinion. Often when I read books on this subject I am inspired to take action, this book didn't offer me that.

Great book simplifying Charles Hannel, Master Key System. It is interesting that Napoleon Hill the Author of Think and Grow Rich gives credit Charles as the originator of these ideas. Mind Opening book. Will recommend a read.

I found this very hard to get into and tried both the Kindle and audible versions. The idea sounds great but I found it far from easy and simple to grasp and when listening on audible I would replay bits several times as it was not always clear what point was being made.

I haven't read about the original but I felt this book was more fluff than tangible actions. The intro was very long and it touches on basic meditation. Doesn't seem like a real "update" to an old text but more like a brief summary without much value added. I'll read the original to see.

What makes this book different is that the process is very clear and thus, that process is very true to its title! A must read everyone!

I actually thought that this book would be about EFT. It is actually a book about tapping into positive thinking to help you achieve your goals. Several author's writings are presented in this book.
