PSYCHO-CYBERNETICS, Maxwell Maltz, M.D., F.I.C.S., Pocket Book, Simon & Schuster
This book presents the basic concept of the
self-image which has been so helpful on understanding human behavior and the
forces that motivate and molds our actions. Dr. Maltz
found that he could change the outside looks of a person through cosmetic
surgery but it had little impact on a persons sense of
worth if the inner picture the person held in the sub conscious belief system
did not change. A person’s self-esteem
does not change unless the self-image in the subconscious belief system
changes.

life.
