It had been a long time since I went out, but last Saturday, I decided to visit my old folks to check in and see how they were doing. When we met, they were happy to see me, and I was just as happy to see them. We shared a few laughs, and they were enjoying their usual weekend activities—indulging in alcoholic beverages and watching sports.

As I sat there for about 30 minutes, I realized that while my body was present, my mind was elsewhere. The conversation just didn’t resonate with my current mindset. You could say I wasn’t impressed.

Now, I’m not judging them, nor do I think I’m better than them. Just two years ago, I was right there with them, indulging in my fair share of escaping reality. I spent too many years in that lifestyle.

The only difference now is that I have a clear understanding of consciousness, and I’m eager to learn more about it. It’s like I’m a vampire who’s tasted blood for the first time—now I need more.

What I really enjoyed about week 2 of the MKE (Master Key Experience) is the focus on the cause. It’s all about giving clear direction to my DMP (Definite Major Purpose) to influence the subconscious. I’ve got 40 billion soldiers at my disposal, ready to work for me and bring my desires into reality.

When I first heard that, I took the time to really process it. In that moment, I decided to invest all my time and energy into focusing on my intentions—absorbing all the information and performing the MKE exercises exactly as instructed.

The road ahead is bound to be a bit bumpy, but I’ll just have to tough it out and take it like a man. This is my opportunity to finally build the bridge that will carry me from where I am now to the life I truly desire. If that means sacrificing a redundant lifestyle with no real direction, then I’m more than happy to do so.
