Psycho-Cybernetics

Updated and Expanded

By: Maxwell Maltz

Narrated by: Matt Furey

Since its first publication in 1960, Maxwell 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.

• 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.”

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 that 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.

Timeless teachings based on solid science, Psycho-Cybernetics provide a prescription for thinking and acting that lead to quantifiable results.

Discover the power of the mind with this book!

amazing book that provides the secrets to mastering your life and mind! I first read it about ten years ago and thought it was good, but now, after listening to the new and updated version, I think it's an all-time great!

Some great advice, but...

This book includes some excellent advice. But it is very dated. The author was clearly an old white Christian man from the era of white Christian male privilege, and he’s also clearly trying very hard to draw imperfect parallels between humans and machines that aren’t based on current evolutionary psychology. Also the narration sucked... super annoying manner of speaking. And the Matt Furey commentaries added nothing for me. Still, I gave it 4 stars because Dr. Maltz has some great life advice in there.

One of the best books I’ve ever read (listened to!

I will be re-listening to this many times moving forward. In my opinion, this is a staple book you have to read if you’re looking for self-improvement!

Absolutely loved it, definitely recommend’

I wasn’t expecting to love it as much as I did. Specially because at the beginning, the vocabulary and the acting didn’t amuse me.

YOU MUST LISTEN TO THIS AT 1.4x/1.5x speed, trust me.

Then, around chapter 3/4 I think, he starts hitting you with some truth bombs that no matter how many books of this type you have read, no one explained this to you like this before. I had to start writing concepts down and I was constantly saying “#%*£, that is super true”.

I must re listen to it as soon as possible, to soak the concepts a bit more. I wasn’t expecting yo write this review, I was sure I wasn’t going to finish it, but I did...and I can’t wait to re listen to it with a more open mind and heart,

life changing!

everyone should read this, its a good book and it's amazing how much better you can feel with positive thinking
