Maltz was the first researcher and author to explain how the self-image (a term he popularized) has complete control over an individual's ability to achieve, or fail to achieve, any goal. He developed techniques for improving and managing self-image visualization, mental rehearsal and relaxation which have informed and inspired countless motivational gurus, sports psychologists, and self-help practitioners for more than fifty years. Rooted in solid science, the classic teachings in Psycho-Cybernetics continue to provide a prescription for thinking and acting that lead to life-enhancing, quantifiable results"--Publisher's description; The self image: your key to a better life Discovering the success mechanism within you Imagination: the first key to your success mechanism Dehypnotize yourself from false beliefs How to utilize the power of rational thinking Relax and let your success mechanism work for you You can acquire the habit of happiness Ingredients of the success-type personality and how to acquire them The failure mechanism: how to make it work for you instead of against you How to remove emotional scars, or how to give yourself an emotional face lift How to unlock your real personality Do-it-yourself tranquilizers that bring peace of mind How to turn a crisis into a creative opportunity How to get "that winning feeling" More years of life and more life in your years ER -
