The holiday season is always a moment of reflection, as I have more time for myself, but it is true that it’s more difficult to do all the exercises, as the daily routine changes. I did my best to be faithful to the assignments, despite a lot of distractions. I keep in mind the quote from Haanel: « Knowledge will not apply itself » and I keep on repeating it to me.

I start this post, by saying that I am grateful for the Christmas holidays, because they give me time with family and friends, but also because I can test more the change in my mind and in my life. I am still amazed by my calmness during this period, where most people run into the shops to buy presents, to prepare meals etc etc. I did not want to be part of that and actually everything was made by itself,  with minimum commitment from my side. An example? I had 6 persons from the family coming over to stay in my house for a total of 10 people: I prepared everything, meals ,beds etc so easily, that I could not believe it. Everyone was helping me and we even had a family yoga session together! Another example concerning the presents: some of them were bought by my husband and the others by a family member that proposed herself to me without asking! Wow!! Of course, my toe operation helped me to avoid all this stress…so it was a good timing for it 😀 Lire la suite →

This week, I really put all the teachings to an interesting test: on Monday, I had a small operation on a toe. Normally, I would have arrived stressed to the hospital (a place that I do not like at all, I stay away from hospitals as much as I can), fearing the pain I would suffer, worried about the good exit of the operation etc etc..but now, that I am following the Master key, I have all the tools at my disposal to stay calm and positive in any given situation.

So, one week before the operation, I visualized that everything will be just fine, that the doctor will have a « soft touch »and that the operation will be a success. I repeated this visualization several times. Lire la suite →

Here we are at week 11 already! Wow, it passed so quickly…Actually, I was tired on Sunday evening, so I decided to watch the webinar replay. What a surprise when I saw my face there, among all the others! I did not expect that, I felt honored and blessed. I saw that so many participants are experiencing such an amazing change in their life..what a beautiful gift! Thank you so much to you Mark J., Davene and all the guides. I am so happy to be in this course and to share my experience with all of you. I want also to give a special thanks to my Mastermind partner Hitomi, for her support and her enthusiasm :-). Toward the end of the webinar, I was moved, listening to the inspiring story of DJ. The doctors told him that he will never be able to walk and, in the end, he walked more than anybody else, I am sure…what a nice lesson of perseverance and focus! The result of a Strong Mind and a Beautiful Soul. Love that. I really want to persevere, even if sometimes I have doubts on my definite major purpose, that it is maybe too ambitious and not very realistic..and then I have the temptation to revise it. I do not know what to do. I still have to reflect a bit on that. I will also ask my guide Liane her opinion (she is an expert, she can give opinions, right? :-). Lire la suite →

I came back from the yoga retreat really recharged and refreshed. It was much needed, as last week was a very challenging one. This week was a lot easier, and I could complete 4 days of mental diet: of course 3 of them were done during the retreat! Back home, the daily routine in the family and difficult moments with the kids made me restart again. I know I will succeed as I will persist! Scroll 3 from Og Mandino’s book is really inspiring and pushes me out of my comfort zone. I like that. Actually I love this book as much as Haanel’s lessons. I also noticed something interesting, while reading Scroll 2: my heart opened to the world, but I became very sensitive, maybe too much…I am curious to see what happens next, but I hope to stabilize my emotions a bit more, as much as I would like to have a relaxed mind, which is a precondition to succeed in the mental diet (and one of the 7 laws of the mind).
