The program - Self-Programmed Control or SPC - provides you with the two most important components for achieving maximum fulfillment and happiness in life: a good clear picture of what leads to happiness and most important - the means to implement this picture. The first component - The Self-Control Methods - presents a set of the most effective techniques for achieving self-mastery and facilitating the reprogramming of any negative behaviors holding you back from optimum fulfillment in life; i.e., it solves the most difficult problem in any self-improvement program - the inability of most people to change. The techniques are even more effective than such methods as bio-feedback, self-hypnosis, or meditation. The main reason these SPC techniques are so effective is that not only are they simple to follow but, most importantly, they produce immediate results. The second part, the Positive Direction Component, makes this the most comprehensive of the self-help books, as you can readily see from the Table of Contents, covering just about every aspect of human behavior. It is virtually a handbook for self-improvement including in-depth sections on habit control, assertiveness training, stress control, holistic health, pain control, sex, memory improvement and many more. It is a profound book as well, answering questions that have heretofore puzzled some of the greatest minds down through the ages. The following are some of the concepts you will now be able to see in a new and clearer light: Free Will, The Mind, Belief, the Placebo, Faith Healing, Positive Thinking, Hypnosis, Happiness, Love and Brotherhood. Written in simple, easy-to-understand language and replete with case histories and examples, you will find the book not only easy to read but hard to put down.. 2nd Edition. Hard Cover.
