PRAISE FOR MAXWELL MALTZ * : *
Maltz is the man who popularised the notion of the self-image. He's far wiser and more profound than those who came after. This is a deeply insightful and classic book about your inner game * Entrepeneur.com *
In 1960, surgeon Dr Maxwell Maltz discovered that unless the patient also worked on their self-identity and developed their feelings of self-worth, surgery would be useless, concluding that what was really needed was plastic surgery for the mind. In other words, unless we believe in ourselves, our performance in any field (and our self-respect) will be low. Since then, countless studies have been done that corroborate Dr Maltz's findings ... If we can create a ritual of talking to ourselves in a supportive, positive manner, then our self-belief will indeed strengthen * Forbes *
Maxwell Maltz was an early exponent of the visualisation principle. Almost half a century ago, he captured a truth that can literally transform the way we think, act and communicate -- Bert Decker, entrepreneur and author of You’ve Got to Be Believed to Be Heard
