You may not have heard this before:

There’s a success switch in your mind/brain. And when it’s turned on, good things happen.

You move toward your goals and accomplish them.

People show up in your life and help you out.

Information you need suddenly shows up on your radar.

Why doesn’t this happen when you’re down in the dumps?

Dr. Maxwell Maltz wrote about this in Psycho-Cybernetics. He referred to this switch as your “automatic servo mechanism.” Then he broke it down even further, writing about your “automatic success mechanism” and “automatic failure mechanism.”

He wrote that there are “success prone personalities” and “failure prone personalities,” explained why this is the case, then told you how to turn it around.

Tonight I am going to pull the curtain back even more than Dr. Maltz did, giving you the “inside the mind secrets” of how you activate yourself to be success prone.

Funny thing is I have taught my private clients how to activate this switch within seconds. The first exercise I teach takes about 30 seconds. I can teach it to a child even faster. I can even teach it to a “grumpy old man.”

There are many different levels of activating this success switch, making you success prone, and I’m going to cover a whole bunch of them tonight in the Success Switch Intensive I’m conducting.

As of now I have 3 spots left.

If you want in, click the following link to send me an email: Success Switch Intensive and I’ll send you a direct link to enroll.

It’s not cheap to be involved in this intensive – (it’s $177.00) and for many, many good reasons. Then again, in many other ways, I’m certain I am undercharging for it.

The question is: How much is being “success prone” worth to you?

Last time I checked, failure is expensive. And heartbreaking.

If you want in, contact me NOW.

Only 3 spots left.

‘Twas a long, long time ago, but I can still vividly recall.

I was working a wrestling camp in Cedar Falls, Iowa, and my friend and fellow instructor, Mike, was teaching the high schoolers a new technique.

As Mike was doing so, someone asked, “What if he counters that move by doing this?”

Mike thought the “What if?” questions were over, but later on, when he began teaching another technique, a whole new level of “what if?” questioning began.

Mike did his best to be polite and answer the boys’ questions, but you could see he was getting ready to erupt.

Why? Because the boys didn’t even know the move, yet they were already dreaming of imaginary scenarios where it might not work. That’s not the proper way to learn.

Anyway, a bit later that evening, when Mike started showing another move, the boys hit him with the same type of questions again. With a stern smile on his face, Mike barked, “What if my aunt had a deek? Well, she’d be my uncle, wouldn’t she?”

Mike didn’t stop there, either. He ran through a litany of off-color “what if?” scenarios that made almost everyone howl.

Mike’s humorous outburst was the perfect answer to the ridiculous questioning taking place. His point was that you can always come up with a “What if?” – but ‘what if’ your questions are coming too soon in the process?

And that process goes as follows:

First, you practice what the instructor taught without pressure of any kind; without anyone attempting to counter in any way.

Second, you continue to practice until you can do the move smoothly enough that even if someone tries to counter, it will be difficult to do so.

Third, when you finally do run up against someone who can counter your move, that is when you begin to make refinements and adjustments.

If you ask “What if?” before you give yourself a chance to learn before someone counters, you’re defeated before you start.

There is a positive way to use “What if?” questions, but today’s message is about guarding yourself against the negative “what if’ers,” especially when it is directed at you by doubters, naysayers and counter-creators.

For example, let’s say you have a goal in mind, such as writing a book, and you make the mistake of telling a malcontent about it. Instead of supporting you, he or she will immediately say something such as, “Well, what if it doesn’t sell? Whatcha gonna do then?”

The worst part of being around negative “what if’ers” is that you can unconsciously become one yourself.

Every time you get an idea, instead of mapping it out with enthusiasm, you begin to interrogate yourself. You ask yourself negative “What if?” questions, and it isn’t long before you discard your goal. This is when you are being your own worst enemy.

Again, there is a time and place for “What if?” questions, but it isn’t in the beginning, before you have traction.

Untimely “What ifs?” are symptomatic of the failure mechanism. They’re designed to cause uncertainty, fear, worry and doubt.

It’s bad enough when other people clobber you with “What ifs?” – but it’s far worse when you do it to yourself.

P.S. Two days from now, April 16, at 7 PM EST, I am going to be holding another Intensive. This one, Defeating the Failure Mechanism, is a huge topic for so many. We will get into conquering the “What If’ers,” even those inside your own mind. The fee for this Intensive is $177. Want to be involved? Send an email to mattfurey@mac.com and I will get you a link to enroll.

“It is no exaggeration to say that every human being is hypnotized to some extent, either by ideas he has uncritically accepted from others, or ideas he has repeated to himself or convinced himself are true.” – Maxwell Maltz, M.D.Psycho-Cybernetics, Updated and Expanded

Before going to bed last night, I flipped open Psycho-Cybernetics to see what page it would land on. This is a great practice that allows you to tune in to exactly what you need to read, not what you think you should be reading.

On page 60, the words, “Is Everyone Hypnotized?” jumped off the page.

I pulled out my Montblanc pen and a blank index card and copied the quote. When you do this before bed, it will open the gates for you to gain additional insights while dreaming.

The knowledge that can come to you this way is out of this world and is one of the reasons that “priming the pump” before bedtime was and is used by so many successful creators, scientists, researchers, writers and so on.

Read for a while, write for a while.

What you write doesn’t have to be much… just enough to prime your subconscious mind and effortlessly put it to work for you.

You can also write a question, such as, “Is there something I have been hypnotized to believe that is simply not true?”

As you’re sleeping, don’t be surprised when your subconscious mind gives you the answer. That’s how this practice works, automatically, on command.

Upon receiving the answer, put a hook through it (as though it’s a slippery fish) by writing it down.

This method can also be used prior to taking an afternoon nap, something many people are hypnotized to believe is “a bad thing.”

Fortunately, I grew up in a home where afternoon naps were championed.

In fact, while getting mentally ready for my championship bout in the national finals (way back in 1985), I fell asleep. And while seemingly “out cold,” I dreamt about what I needed to do to win that match. When I woke up, I was ready to go. I put what was revealed to me in my dream into action, and the result was another victory.

Play around with this idea. Have fun with it. You’ll be amazed with the results.

P.S. The next Psycho-Cybernetics Intensive is on March 19 at 7 PM EST. It will be a “closed door” event for Platinum Goal Getters only, where I teach how to dehypnotize yourself from ideas you’ve bought into that are not helping you climb the ladder of success. Interested in being a part of this private coaching group? Then email me: goals@psycho-cybernetics.com

The opportunity of a lifetime is approaching at the speed of light.

In less than two days you will no longer be able to register for the Theatre of the Mind™ Intensive I am hosting on Wednesday, February 19, at 7 PM EST).

Those who are registered can participate in the LIVE event as well as get the recording to watch afterward. This is going to be HUGE!

Sometime in the future, I may release the recording to those not currently registered, but it will be much more expensive, probably in the neighborhood of $997.00.

So this is your last shot to get in at the current fee of $247.00.

The Theatre of the Mind™ Intensive will be a three-hour presentation, with QnA woven throughout. No matter how long the event, one thing is for certain: The information I am providing will begin to change your life the second you do what I am teaching.

If you want in, contact me now.

Yes, I am vetting everyone who contacts me about the event. This means that I do not reply to everyone as some people who write me aren’t truly serious.

Interested? Contact me NOW by sending an email to goals@psycho-cybernetics.com

After I hear from you, and if you are a fit, I will send you the link to register.

The doors are slamming shut very soon.

P.S. Theatre of the Mind is the ultimate visualization technique that Dr. Maltz taught. With it, you “get your goals” while enjoying the journey toward them. When you use this technique on a regular basis, you accomplish far more, far faster, and do so with a feeling of confident calmness all along the way. I break this technique down step-by-step, making it simple and easy for you to learn.
