Description
Did you know that most self-help programs that follow the standard success blueprint have a 97% failure rate?
The truth is that the typical approach of tapping into your willpower and activating the power of positive thinking is actually a formula for failure.
This Special Report will show you the superior way to finally overcome hurts, hang-ups and habits.
In his bestseller, Good to Great, Jim Collins relates his conversation with Admiral Jim Stockdale on the latter’s ordeal in Vietnam War.
Admiral Stockdale was the highest ranking United States military officer in the “Hanoi Hilton†prisoner-of-war camp during the height of the Vietnam War. He was tortured over 20 times during his eight-year imprisonment from 1965 to 1973.
When Jim Collins asked Admiral Stockdale who were the soldiers who didn’t survive the ordeal, the latter gave this surprising answer:
“Oh, that’s easy. The optimists. Oh, they were the ones who said, ‘We’re going to be out by Christmas.’ And Christmas would come, and Christmas would go. Then they’d say, ‘We’re going to be out by Easter.’ And Easter would come, and Easter would go. And then Thanksgiving, and then it would be Christmas again. And they died of a broken heart.â€
If you have tried everything else and failed, this one is for you. If you are offended by spiritual ideas, this may not be for you.
