Lisa was frustrated. For years she had been an excellent sales representative but now had problems increasing her sales and her personal income. As a sales representative that was successful in the past, she could find no technique that would help her now. Even though she was making more sales presentations than ever before, the sales success eluded her. The harder she tried, the more frustrated she became.

Finally, Lisa decided to create a hypnotic prescription or prevailing thought and use it before every sales call. She told herself that every time she greeted a customer or prospect, she would imagine that person exactly like her in every way. She imagined that person looking for love, recognition and respect. Instead of focusing on a tangible product, Lisa would focus on the customer's personality. Instead of visualizing the customer as just another sale, the customer would be seen as a living, loving person, just like Lisa. The customer wanted to be respected and appreciated. The customer wanted Lisa to valued his opinion.

After only two weeks after creating and exercising this new hypnotic prescription or prevailing thought, Lisa began to achieve great results. Lisa was also making new, lifelong friends. Work was fun. Now, that Lisa was making sales and making friends, her appreciation of her job and her life was heightened.

What is a hypnotic prescription? What are the magic words you say to yourself to achieve results? How can you integrate the prescription into your personal success plan?

There are three objectives to Chapter 5.

You will understand what is a hypnotic suggestion or prevailing thought.

You will learn how to create your own hypnotic prescription or prevailing thought.

You will apply your own prescription to your self-hypnosis induction.

Let's begin!

It is truly amazing how you will change your habits and change your life by changing just a few words in your speech and your thought patterns. The above list can go on forever.

Think of a few goals right now. Make a "T" on a piece of paper or in this textbook. On the left side write down your prescription in negative terms, on the right, state your goal in a positive way.

Can you see or feel a difference? You will, in a very short time!

What are the magic words that will help you achieve all of your goals? Where do I find the right things to say? How do I say them? Let's find out.

In a prescription you say two basic things.

You state it in a way that assumes you have already reached the goal or are rapidly getting closer to achieving it.

In the case of controlling your weight, you may say something like this:

Then, you may talk to yourself in a way that assumes you are already in possession of the goal. For example:

For each of the above examples of prescriptions think of examples of hypnotic scripts or prescriptions. How do these examples relate to the challenges that you are facing? Do you feel that you would be too unrealistic with yourself to visualize and tell yourself that you are already in possession of these goals? Why do you feel that way?

If you feel that way you are normal. It takes some time to finally convince ourselves that we are everything we should be rather than everything we think we are not. Reality is in the eyes of the beholder. I have witnessed people achieving extraordinary accomplishments when logic and reason would dictate that they couldn't possibly achieve these goals.

When I taught Business Education classes at Elgin High School, in Elgin, Illinois, I remember having a student in class with many personal problems at home. By all circumstances this student should have become a drop out and perhaps a burden on society later on.

Due to a positive self-esteem, however, she was able to achieve straight "A's" in high school. She was a National Merit Scholar, worked part time, lived in a very abusive home, and had to raise her younger brothers and sisters. She accomplished all of this and with an IQ of 80. Fortunately, no one told her the test score.

You have the power to raise your self-esteem regardless of the conditions you face in life. The power of your belief will be enhanced and illuminated through the hypnosis induction, conditioning exercises and your custom prescription or script. You are the main ingredient, however, in making it all work!

Since ALL hypnosis is self-hypnosis, then WHEREVER you decide to place your custom prescription or script, this is going to be the correct place. How can you lose? Just to give you a head start, however, I am going to give a few tips on where it may fit in quite nicely.

As you are giving yourself instructions, such as, "As you sit up in your chair or lie down on your bed, you are seeing your-self in your perfect weight."

Another place a script may fit in nicely is after you say, " breathe deeply, and relax and push all the tension out of your lungs." You may insert something like, "I am calm and relaxed while taking tests." (This is from the test anxiety example in the preceding table)

A great spot to insert your custom script is just before you emerge from the state. For example: "When I emerge from this state of mind, I will feel better than ever before."

A plan to incorporate hypnotic prescriptions or scripts in your life is much like planning a speech or a paper for school. In a speech or paper, you are supposed to tell them what you want to tell them, tell them, and then tell them what you told them. This is what is called the power of threes. Concentrate on telling them what you want to tell them. Then, tell them. Finally tell them what you told them, as you complete Activity 1, Create Your Hypnotic Prescription.

Activity 1 - Create Your Hypnotic Prescription

Create a hypnotic prescription or prevailing thought based on your most pressing need or desire in life. State it in positive terms.

Activity 2 - Record Your New Induction

I am going to repeat the first induction we performed together in Chapter 3. Before you read it into your recorder, I want you to edit it by writing down prescription statements relating directly to your problem or goal. Then insert those statements anywhere you feel necessary in the induction text. Feel free to mark up your textbook as you insert your positive statements in your induction. You may even use different colored ink or a highlighter to make it easier to work with as you record the induction.

Note: From my experience and background, telling yourself the behavior you want, followed by strong, positive statements reinforcing that behavior, is your quickest guarantee for success.

Self-hypnosis Induction: Eyes Open Method.

Always remember that ALL hypnosis is self-hypnosis! You are always in control. You have all the power necessary to make positive changes in your own life. You may have found out already in life that you also have the power to make all the negative changes in your life. Let's focus on the positive changes.

Find an area in your home or place of work where you can have about 10 minutes to yourself. That's right, only 10 minutes are needed in your quest for a successful induction at this point. After practicing this exercise many times, you may reduce the time to only one or two minutes. Now read the following words into a recording device. Read very, very slowly. Pretend that you are tired as you read this exercise and you will react in a relaxed, sleepy, manner. (You may want to print out this page for future reference) Whenever you see the (Pause) cue, pause for 3 seconds, then go ahead and read again. Let your body relax for a few moments before continuing on.

BEGIN INDUCTION

END OF INDUCTION

How do you feel? You are rapidly gaining control over the problem you listed above and many more problems you may not have thought of yet!

Activity 3 - Evaluate Your Induction

Record your reactions and thoughts to this exercise by answering the following questions.

Activity 4 - (Optional) Recording the Script

Go back over the script, you prepared and substitute the word, "I" for the word "you." Record into the tape recorder. Label the tape, Chapter 5, Optional. Listen to the newly recorded tape.

Use one of the extra Evaluate Your Induction forms located in the appendix, and answer the questions.

In Chapter 5, you learned how to create a hypnotic prescription or prevailing thought. Every time you wish to begin a new project in helping yourself achieve a new goal, use the format presented in this chapter.

You learned how to integrate your prescription or prevailing thought, in your induction and you listened to it for your success programming. We will continue on in Chapter 6 in positively communicating your goals to your subconscious mind.

You are doing great!
