Most of us have emotions about emotions. And they work at lightening speed. Before we are even aware of it. For example, you’re flipping something in a frying pan, and you miss, and it lands on the floor. (This happened to me last night lol). First you get pissed. Then you get upset about being […]
The Magic Wand Mind Trick
Here’s a fantastic way to obliterate an objection whether it comes from a partner, a child, or a client. When people are thinking about real things that they think are likely to happen, they generally have their shields up, so to speak. A large part of conversational hypnosis is getting around those shields and getting […]
Be Careful What You Pick Up
Once there was this hiker, out for an afternoon stroll. He was up hiking in the mountains, and was moving along a pretty good clip. He got up over the tree line, and noticed that the temperature had dropped considerably. He zipped up his jacket, went for a while longer, and then decided to head […]
Dig Deeper For Higher Level Criteria And Find Treasure
Everybody wants something. Soon as we get something, we want something more. All human life is based on exchange. What we’ve got, for what we want. That position you’re sitting in now, as you’re reading this. Did you just shift your weight? Just a little bit? If you didn’t, you’re thinking about it now. Part […]
Find Gold In Your Past To Assure Your Future
Sometimes doing new things is scary. Especially if we focus on a potential negative outcome. For example, if you’re starting a new job, or promoting a new product, you might not know what to expect.

Who’s Pulling Your Strings?
Which is more important, nurture or nature? Some people with advanced degrees can effectively argue one way or the other. Bottom line is people come with two things most animals don’t: Tons of Instincts Tons of Learning Abilities Animals respond without thinking. They put rats in a cage, and set up a lever that will […]
Keep Your Eyes On The Prize For Consistent and Mind Boggling Success
I like to golf sometimes. I suck, but I enjoy it. I don’t think I’ve ever finished a course without losing a couple of balls. Which means I never buy new balls. I always use old ones that I find. I can’t justify buying new ones if I know there’s a good chance I’m going […]
Easy Mind Seduction With Hypnotic Structure
Structure is hypnotically seductive, but we usually can’t see it. What do I mean? Consider this sentence: Yesterday I ate a banana. The structure is [time reference] + [subject]+[verb]+[object]. The content, the stuff that fills in the blanks, is yesterday, I, eat, banana. How about this sentence: You are smart because you are reading this […]

If you listen to the Sex Pistols’ version of “Substitute,” originally by The Who, you can hear Johnny Rotten in the background saying, “You don’t need permission for anything!” allegedly referring to that fact that they didn’t get “official” permission from The Who to cover the song. I remember a kid, I learned that if […]
Follow Your Bliss
Joseph Campbell, the studier of mythology from around the world, had this to say when asked what the best life strategy is: “Follow your bliss.” See, he had studied mythology and discovered that pretty much all stories from all cultures followed the same basic premise. The “reluctant hero” would be living a pretty boring life, […]
