A new self-image
What is Psycho-Cybernetics
“You” are not a machine
Zig-zag servo-mechanism
“You” are not a failure
Your current identity is built by your past narratives
What stories are you telling yourself
Get the “winning” feeling
Make your inner reality more real than your external environment
How Conor McGregor became the most successful athlete
Integrate your emotions into your vision
You already self-hypnotize unconsciously
Why do you need goals for your creative-mechanism to function
Viktor Frankl and why you need higher purposely goals
-Why knowing your purpose is crucial
Trust the process
Act as if you've achieved your goal
Forgiveness = getting an emotional facelift
The S.U.C.C.E.S.S. acronym

Lesson from Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz.
Psycho-Cybernetics is a well-known self-improvement book. Its author, Maxwell Maltz, was a plastic surgeon who discovered that his patients frequently needed more than surgery to improve their self-image. In the book, Maltz details techniques for cultivating a positive internal goal, which he believes can lead to positive external outcomes. The book draws on the works of Preston Lecky, Norbert Wiener, and John von Neumann.
