To embrace a journey….
What does that look like? What does that really mean to hold on to something and embrace it, vs letting something go? Where I am today and who I am becoming started 5 years ago. Five years ago I was letting go of more things than I was embracing. Many of the things that I was letting go of were toxic and they were for good reasons but there was other things that I let go of that were good. The one thing that I could not let go of that was very toxic, was myself. Since I am with myself all the time it was a very difficult situation to face in the mirror & embrace. It took me a while to accept myself, where I was at, and to forgive myself so that I could start the healing and rebuilding process. Making the choice to change was one of the most difficult decisions I have ever made. With God, Stefanie, my family and a few genuine friends I was able to start EMBRACING MY CHANGE.
The road to healing is full of trials and tribulations but they are all for good even when its difficult. And accepting myself where I was at was one thing, but loving myself was something much more difficult. Along the way I have embraced opportunities like this one, the master key, along with meditation and a healthier lifestyle of living. I have truly enjoyed and embraced becoming a better person step-by-step and day-by-day. It takes time but I’ve also realized that it took me a long time to get where I was 5 yrs ago.
I know now that anything and any changes are possible, it’s just a matter of whether or not I am willing to listen and embrace what I am hearing, but most importantly…..turn it into action(s). My choice and actions, to be here, in this master key community, is so essential to my internal growth. I cannot wait to learn, grow and change through this master key community, family and tribe of positive people. The information and the tools that I have seen so far are amazing. I am looking forward to the challenges that I will find here and the person I have the choice to become.

Great blog! You already have made some wonderful observations, good job!
Great Jake. Your story sounds similar and perhaps there’s some commonality with my past. I think I can relate (I was Mr. Negative, critical, always fault finding, and a toxic know it all. Hated myself. That was me, Version 1.0, three decades ago.) Now, looking to go to Version 3.0! Exciting times ahead…
Thank you Jake for sharing your thoughts and insights! I’m sure a lot of people can relate to it. Great start on your journey with Master Key Experience!
Hi Jake, so glad you make the choice to be a part of our Journey together. I enjoyed your post.
The change you will see is within you which you have already done. See joy and happiness and it will come to life. Jake congratulations on seeing it was you, great start.
How right you are, Jake! The changes occur when we decide to make them. Step by step, it becomes more comfortable and allows for even more! What a great step forward you’ve made! Thanks for sharing it here.
Thank you, Jake, for being so vulnerable. The cement makes you feel unloveable. Imagine how amazing life feels when you honor and love who you were created to be. Keep up the habits to make it all happen.
