EXCERPT: PREFACE Every human obviously wants to succeed--to realize the best of his potentials. And yet many of us clearly defeat ourselves in life. This is a shocking paradox, and yet it is true: Some people are their own worst enemies; they consistently prepare traps into which they themselves fall. It is not a question of intelligence. Self-defeatists are often extremely intelligent, but use only part of their brain power constructively. The remainder is used to undo what went before--to end a project with a crippling and over-all failure. Furthermore, it is not a question of sanity. However much self-defeat insults man's conception of himself as a rational creature, we are forced to admit that self-defeatists are often encountered among those who are clearly rational and sane. Then what is it a question of? Why and how do we defeat ourselves? These are questions the answers to which I have been seeking for the past fifteen years through clinical research. I have published several reports of my findings. These reports have been for the professional, the specialist. I now want to reach the non-professional, the man who may himself be involved in some form of chronic self-defeat . . . Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
