Psycho-Cybernetics is an approach and a term developed by Dr. Maxwell Maltz. His book with this title was published in January 1960 and has sold over 30 million copies. Maltz was a cosmetic surgeon and author. He combined his psychology and concluded that our self-image is the cornerstone of our mental state and, therefore, all the successes and failures in our life.
It is still interesting to read his works and see that a plastic surgeon learned more about people in 1960 than psychiatrists had known!
He explained how the self-image has complete control over an individual’s ability to achieve or fail to reach their goals. He developed techniques for improving and managing self-image.
Psycho-Cybernetics teachings are still considered valuable and based on solid science with measurable results.
