This is my first blog. I have never done something like this before. I start a new adventure and I share on it my experience of week 1 in the Master key system. I know that I have a long way in front of me, but I do not feel discouraged, on the contrary, I am motivated to do progresses, step by step. This first week was full of challenges, I felt like everything was going against my motivation to do the required assignments: the line to attend the webinar on Sunday did not work (technical problems), my husband went abroad for work, my daughter was sick and the babysitter, sick as well (since a month already…). As I do not live close to my parents, I do not have their help either and my children are still small. So, I was completely alone with the kids, my regular work, and all the new assignments for the Master key class…it was a bit too much, because I had to put in place new routines in my daily life, new habits. Actually, in the end I was sick too, especially because I could not sleep properly. I hope that, after such a difficult start, the situation will improve. I am proud of myself, because, despite all this, I did all the assignments.
The most difficult one for me is writing the Definite Major Purpose in general and especially in such a short time. I know also that if I have no deadline, I will certainly procrastinate, because this exercise is so difficult for me and because I have the tendency to attend others’needs before mine. Even now that I submitted it, I am not sure of it…I will certainly change it pretty much, with the help of my guide. What I like a lot in this course, is that I find many concepts that are probably taken from the Yoga philosophy. Being a Yoga teacher myself, I learnt them already in the past, so I am familiar with Karma, Dharma, functioning of the mind etc.. I love the Yoga philosophy! It was an amazing discovery.
The easy task for me is the 15 minutes of stillness every day, since I am used to do more than 15 minutes sitting in meditation. I always enjoy this exercise a lot: it brings clarity in the mind and after it I am much more efficient and focused in my daily tasks. I like the reading of Scroll I of Og Mandino’s book, it brings me more confidence and I definitely need that. I have problems with the reading out loud, I feel strange, especially if I have to show more enthusiasm in my voice…of course, the fact that English is not my mother tongue, does not help much. It sounds a bit artificial… I also think of translating into Italian my DMP to add more power to each word of it.
Voilà, these are my first impressions. I hope to solve at least the technical problem to follow the webinars directly each Sunday. I finish by thanking the Master key teachers for sharing this precious knowledge and the Universe for putting me on this fascinating journey.
