"Last hope" proves successful

"Last hope" proves successful

Successful mental projection showed him who he really is

Wouldn't it be great if there were a "success course" that really worked...for everybody?

You know what I mean; you know what the success books are like:

A powerful, wealthy, successful man or woman writes a book about what they did and how they did it. They tell about their struggles and how they overcame those struggles to rise from failure to success.

And then they give you their secret formula for success:

Just do what I did, they tell you; persist, work hard, never give up; follow my guidelines and you will become successful too.

To prove their point, they always give you examples of people who have done it: They tell you about the people that they have taught their secrets to, and as a result, these people have also become rich and famous.

Sometimes they are honest enough to admit that most people are not successful with their system. But don't worry, they admonish you; persist, work hard, never give up; follow my guidelines and you will become successful too.

So you try. You give it your best shot. You put forth an honest effort and you do what the success guru says, you use the techniques, you persist, you work hard, you follow their guidelines, and success...eludes you.

If it works for all those other people, why not for you?

But hold on...wait a minute here. What do you mean, "it works for all those other people"? Didn't we just say that they even admit that only one person in ten succeeds in becoming successful?

Think about that: The odds are ten to one against you ever having much success with any of those success courses.

Oh, you make little gains with almost any program that you try. There is always something there that is helpful. It's just that very few people - only about one in ten - every achieves any significant gains over where they were previously, from the success courses.
