Psycho-Cybernetics
Dr. Maxwell Maltz is the author of the book
Psycho-Cybernetics, a self-improvement book which includes several
subliminal tapes to reprogram yourself for success. Like all other
subliminal tape courses there is no scientific evidence I've ever seen
that shows these are effective. In fact I've tried some in the past and
got no benefit whatsoever from them. If you could really reprogram
yourself with these, everyone would use them and most social problems
would go away. You'll hear people quoting subliminal messages that were
used in a movie theater many years ago and the increased concession
sales of soda and popcorn that they say resulted. The problem is with
courses like Psycho-Cybernetics that audio subliminal messages simply
are not effective in my opinion (having tried them) and trying to get
someone to change all their life habits is not the same as trying get
them to buy popcorn with some visual messages embedded into some movie
frames.
Psycho-Cybernetics makes the claims of all the other
self help programs out there, but I found the quotes and information on
their site less than convincing. This is another program that if it was
half as effective as advertised would have been embraced by the medical
community long ago as a cure for many of lifes problems. The one red
flag is that they claim that 30 million people have studied his
materials, but there's only about a dozen testimonials listed, it just
doesn't add up.
Since I review business opportunities and internet gurus
all day for a living, you can guess I know which ones work and which
ones don't. Click here to see how I
