The New Psycho-Cybernetics
About this ebook
Self-image is the most important psychological discovery of the modern age. It is our mental blueprint. It dictates where we think we belong and thus can stand in the way of our success.
In 1960, Maxwell Maltz published Psycho-Cybernetics seeking to help others learn how to redraw that negative wiring and remove the obstacles blocking their dreams. Dr. Maltz developed revolutionary techniques for managing and improving self-image—visualization, mental rehearsal, relaxation—which have informed and inspired countless athletes, entrepreneurs, college students, and many others for more than fifty years. Since its initial publication, the book has become an influential bestseller, improving the lives of more than thirty million readers.
In The New Psycho-Cybernetics, Matt Furey, president of the Psycho-Cybernetics Foundation, expands and updates Maltz's original work. Furey adds a new introduction and editorial commentary, and the original text has been annotated and amplified to make Maltz's message even more relevant for today. Get ready to tap into the power of your subconscious mind to:
- Improve your self-image
- Learn to use your positive past
- Set and achieve worthwhile goals
- Develop compassion, self-respect, and forgiveness
- Cultivate the power of rational thinking
- Discover the key to a happier, more successful life
With timeless teachings based on solid science, The New Psycho-Cybernetics offers a prescription for thinking and acting that leads to real results.

About the author
Dr. Maxwell Maltz created his self-improvement phenomenon Psycho-Cybernetics at age sixty-one. After a successful career as a surgeon, writer, and speaker, Dr. Maltz was inspired to move from treating "outer scars" to "inner scars". In his groundbreaking first book, New Faces, New Futures, Dr. Maltz suggested that many people "see themselves" inaccurately, their perceptions distorted by unchallenged and often erroneous beliefs imbedded in their subconscious mind. After a decade of counseling, research, and testing, Dr. Maltz published his findings in the original Psycho-Cybernetics (1960). It became an instant bestseller and made Dr. Maltz one of the most in-demand motivational speakers throughout the 1960s and the early 1970s. He went on to amass a wealth of "case history" material, seminars, workshops, radio broadcasts, and more than a dozen books, all applying Psycho-Cybernetics to different purposes, from business success to athletic achievement to sex-life improvement.
Matthew Furey, a former world-renowned wrestler and martial artist, went on to become a bestselling fitness and self-help author. Some of his books and audiobooks include Psycho-Cybernetics 365, Maxwell Maltz's Theatre of the Mind, Combat Conditioning, Expect to Win—Hate to Lose, The Unbeatable Man, and 101 Ways to Magnetize Money . . . in Any Economy. Furey's pioneering work in bodyweight exercise paved the way for an entire movement of functional fitness. His latest breakthroughs and techniques in psycho-physical exercise are available at psycho-cybernetics.com and mattfurey.com. Since 2005, when Furey became president of the Psycho-Cybernetics Foundation, he has held seminars and coaching programs all over the world, teaching Psycho-Cybernetics and mind-body fitness, as well as advanced techniques in the "mental game" of sports, business, and entrepreneurship.
