Mindset: The New Psychology of Success

A reader wants to know:
“How can you fool your mind into positive thinking?”
“How can I stop thinking of complaints and negative things?”

There’s a Monty Python song that goes “Always look on the bright side of life” which basically says that life sucks.
And if that’s your view, then that’s what your life is going to be.

As far as “fooling your mind” think about it this way:

How can your mind fool itself? You can’t trick yourself into thinking positive.

You can change your habits, of course.

You can become more aware of when you complain and focus on negative things, and tell yourself “cancel” when they happen. Or you can consciously focus on something else. But you can’t really fool your subconscious mind.

If the negative beliefs are still there, it’s like a computer program–it will keep running the negative files over and over
again…

The only way to stop it is to rewrite the files. If you’re trying to “trick” yourself into thinking positive, I can tell you right now it’s not going to work. Because you haven’t changed anything on the subconscious level.

It’s like dressing up in a rabbit suit and pretending you’re the Easter bunny.
No one will mistake you for a real rabbit–you’ll just be a person in a rabbit suit.
You haven’t changed who you are–you’ve just put on a new mask.
So stop fooling around.

If you want to make a change, that’s great.
If you want to start being more positive, that’s great.
But don’t do it halfway, and don’t play “pretend” with your mind.
Real and rapid change is possible.
Success with the Law of Attraction is possible.

But you have to be ready to stop fooling around and be ready to go “all the way.”

Fortunately, there’s a way to make those positive changes you want–and make them on such a deep subconscious level that they become a permanent and natural part of who you are.

Hypnosis is the fastest way by FAR for personal change.

So when you use the Hypnotic Secret, you don’t have to “fool” yourself–or anyone else.

These recordings gently erase the negative messages and replace them with positive ones.
And within a short time, you notice yourself beginning to change.
You notice yourself attracting more and more positive things into your life.
And you notice just how easy it is to get what you want.
Ready for the real thing?
