Publisher Description
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.

The Power of the mind
Psycho-Cybernetics is a book filled with practical tools that I can see myself using for years to come. As I read it, I often caught myself wishing I had discovered it much earlier in life, because many of its ideas could have helped me navigate challenges I faced in the past. One sign of a powerful book is that you continue thinking about it even when it’s closed, and that was my experience here—I frequently found myself wondering how one of the approaches in the book might apply to problems I’m currently facing. The book helped me see imagination in a new way, not just as something creative, but as a real asset for shaping the direction of my life. It also introduced the idea that the mind has the ability to generate solutions if we allow it the space to work. For anyone who feels stuck or is looking for practical mental tools to create change, this book offers ideas that are both thought-provoking and useful.
By FAR the best book i’ve ever read in my life.
EVER. I am not the same. I was able to go from a train to a gym owner before even finishing reading the book.
Thank you Dr. Maltz,
Sincerly
