Week 7 has been most challenging!! So many adversities surfacing. I know when I am on the path for good, this happens, but to be honest, this week has challenged me to my core!! I’m grateful for the MasterKey experience as the compass and focus has pulled me back into truth.
My week started out good with an appointment except everything went wrong with the appointment, preparation and the appointment. No cell service, computer downloads not working and the appointment itself went in a negative area from the investigator. As the week went on, she kept texting me with so much negative information about her, her family, life, etc. that it started affecting me. I remember reading in the Seven Day Mental Diet, “Of, course, it will be very helpful if you can take steps to avoid meeting during this week anyone who seems particularly likely to arouse the devil in you.” The negative thoughts were beginning to consume my thoughts to the point I was feeling negative in my world. In my mind, I kept thinking the word “LOVE” but I was still struggling. I made a service on my service card that had been impossible to achieve. I was running behind getting my poster completed. I usually make good food choices and this week the Sugar Bomber was even there!! I even didn’t accept a compliment with “thank you.” My visualization exercises were not working. I wonder why? How could I focus on something positive when I was feeling so negative? Then I remembered Mark’s words that he so passionately stated, “START OVER.”
START OVER – Today I begin a new life and I will greet this day with love in my heart. In my soul, searching, thoughts came to me of how to change my service so I am successful. Who was I listening to? The world without or my world within when I created this service? It was an impossible achievement setting myself up for failure just as the negative self talk was taking over all my positive efforts for the last 6 weeks. START OVER!! Today I make my service achievable. I set my self up for success. I have the POWER from within. I will pray and meditate with each reading three times daily. My inner compass knows more than the world without! The focus has returned to me. I can achieve when I stay on the course with my compass. I did visualize the picture of the compass that was posted on the MK website. I could see this compass in my mind. Not every detail but enough that it guided me back to positive forward thinking learning to love myself for my failures as well as my success. “I will welcome obstacles for they are my challenge.” “But how will I react to the actions of others? With Love. For just as love is my weapon to open the hearts of men, love is also my shield to repulse the arrows of hate and the spears of anger. Adversity and discouragement will beat against my new shield and become as the softest of rains.” I did leave this beyond discouraged woman with the thoughts of “Peace and Love.”
As I was reading my scroll, “And most of all I will love myself”, I realized what I was doing to myself. STOP IT!! START OVER!! FOCUS. Yes, the COMPASS, the magnetized pointer. Magnetized, magnets attach to magnets. What was I attracting? What we FOCUS on we will receive. My reading was linking and creating the POWER to overcome week 7. See it clear. Focus and let the magnetic power bring love as I give love, more light as I give light until I can visualize more and more, and in more complete detail and, as the details begin to unfold the ways and means for bringing it into manifestation will develop. As the details begin to unfold the ways and means for manifestation – this must be the key to why it is so hard for me to visualize the details. Details are extremely important for the way and the means for manifestation!! I will keep my concentration on the thoughts that idealize and create and find the details. Making them clear, concise and attainable and realize the perfectionist in me needs to allow myself to endure and have courage to develop the power of concentration, visualization and to develop the kind of Faith that is the “Substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen,” instead of thinking I have to do it all myself!! I need patience with myself. So on to week 8. Stay the course! PecorelliPower holding to the compass and love, not just for others but love for myself! When I look in the mirror and into my eyes, which I do every day as I use a magnifying mirror to put on my eye make up, I truly will feel “I love myself as I look into my soul through my eyes, not just say the words. FEEL – With EN-THU-SI-ASM!!!!
