"Before the mind can work efficiently, we must develop our perception of the outcomes we expect to reach." Maxwell Maltz calls this Psycho-Cybernetics; when the mind has a defined target it can focus and direct and refocus and redirect until it reaches its intended goal." While science fiction has co-opted the term "cybernetics", the Greek word translates to "a helmsman who steers his ship to port". By combining cybernetics and by adding "psycho", Maltz identified how "self-image" (a psychology term he popularized) effects how we operate in life. He explains how the Self-Image has complete control over an individual's ability to achieve (or failure to achieve) any goal. Psycho-cybernetics, a term coined by Dr. Maltz, means "steering your mind to a productive, useful goal so you can reach the greatest port in the world: peace of mind". Since it was originally publshed in 1960, Maltz's groundbreaking best-seller has enhanced the lives of more than 30 million readers. In this revised and updated audiobook edition, with a new introduction and editorial commentary by Matt Furey, president of the Psycho-Cybernetics Foundation, the original text has been annotated and amplified to make Maltz's message even more relevant for the contemporary audience. Maltz developed a series of techniques for improving and managing one's self-image - visualization, mental rehearsal, relaxation - that have inspired countless motivational gurus, sports psychologists, and self-help practitioners for more than half a century. 0:00:00 - Introduction 0:05:02 - CHAPTER 1: The Self Image – Your Key to Living Without Limits 0:56:48 - CHAPTER 2: How to Awaken the Automatic Success Mechanism within You 1:34:35 - CHAPTER 3: Imagination – The Ignition Key to your Automatic Success Mechanism 2:26:50 - CHAPTER 4: How to Dehypnotise Yourself from False Beliefs 2:56:47 - CHAPTER 5: How to Succeed with the Power of Rational Thinking 3:34:45 - CHAPTER 6: How to Relax and Let Your Automatic Success Mechanism Work for You 04:09:15 - CHAPTER 7, You Can Acquire The Habit of Happiness 04:42:48 - CHAPTER 8.
