Lost on the Internet

Lost on the Internet

Sometimes I prefer educating myself as a writer using books rather than the Internet, because with books I stay on track and with the Internet I get sidetracked.  One link leads to two others and then these lead to another five, until hours later I’ve forgotten my original purpose or how to get back to […]

In 1960, Maxwell Maltz, a plastic surgeon from New York, published a book on self-image psychology and goal visualization called Psycho Cybernetics. In it, he introduced the analogy of the brain as a cybernetic “servo-mechanism”, like a computer designed to find a path to the target it is programmed with. Today, there are hundreds of books on self-image psychology […]
