Klappentext zu „Psycho-Cybernetics “
Cybernetics (loosely translated from the Greek): "a helmsman who steers his ship to port." Psycho-Cybernetics is a term coined by Dr. Maxwell Maltz, which means, "steering your mind to a productive, useful goal so you can reach the greatest port in the world, peace of mind."Since its first publication in 1960, Maltz's landmark bestseller has inspired and enhanced the lives of more than 30 million readers. In this updated 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 reader.
"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." -Tony Robbins (from Unlimited Power)
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. And he developed techniques for improving and managing self-image-visualization, mental rehearsal, relaxation-which have informed and inspired countless motivational gurus, sports psychologists, and self-help practitioners for more than fifty years.
The teachings of Psycho-Cybernetics are timeless because they are based on solid science and provide a prescription for thinking and acting that lead to quantifiable results.

About the Authors
There are two kinds of self-help books: those you read and say, What a great book, and those you experience so profoundly your life is positively changed forever. When you truly experience a great self-help book, you can mark down the date and time you accidentally stumbled across it or who referred you to it. You can also clearly determine the distinction between who you used to be, before you read the book, and who you are now.

My Introduction to Psycho-Cybernetics
In February 1987, shortly after graduating from college and moving to California, I decided to go into business for myself as a personal fitness trainer. Because I had won a national title in college wrestling, and had been trained by Olympic champions Dan Gable and Bruce Baumgartner, I figured I had something valuable to teach young athletes as well as anyone who desired to be more physically fit.
Even as I was embarking on this career, I felt that something was holding me back. There was this inner voice telling me I wasn t good enough, that I couldn t make it.
To be honest: First, I had no business experience. Second, I had very little money. And third, deep down I felt like a failure even before I started.
Imagine that. I wanted to succeed but felt like a failure.
Why did I feel like a failure?
When I think about that question, I recall that when I was in high school, my goal was to wrestle for Dan Gable at the University of Iowa. I fulfilled that goal but I wasn t the number one guy in my weight class. I was almost always number two. I got a lot of matches in tournaments and dual meets and won the majority of them but I was not in the driver s seat. And so, after my sophomore season, I transferred to Edinboro University of Pennsylvania, where I d be on the varsity.
During my junior year at Edinboro, I set a single-season win record for the team (39) and won the NCAA II national title.

This classic by Maxwell Maltz is considered by many experts in the field to be the grandfather of all self-help books. Although it was written in 1960, Psycho-Cybernetics is just as relevant more than 50 years later. His timeless tenets offer a road map for self-image improvement and better quality of life.

Maxwell Maltz, author of Psycho-Cybernetics, was an early exponent of the visualization principle. Almost half a century ago, he captures a truth that can literally transform the way we think, act, and communicate.
--Bert Decker, You ve Got to Be Believed to Be Heard
Psycho-Cybernetics has sold in its millions because it provides a scientific rationale for dream fulfillment. The science and computing references are now outdated, but the principles of cybernetics have only grown in influence. Complexity theory, artificial intelligence, and cognitive science all grew out if the cybernetic understanding of how the non-physical, the ghost in the machine, guides matter. This makes Psycho-Cybernetics the perfect self-help book for a technical culture.
