All motivation comes from goals.
We want to reduce our thirst, so we drink.
We seek to reduce our hunger pain, so we eat.
We dislike being cold, so we put on clothes and find shelter.
We search for security, so we build, save, and protect.
We want that elbow pain to disappear, so we go to a physiotherapist or doctor.
We desire companionship, so we make friends, marry a spouse, and start a family.
We despise the pain of a spank, so we hide our desire to lie and to insult.
We want to do well in life, so we get an education.
We set a goal to own a house, so we scrimp and save for the downpayment.
We feel the pain of a mortgage, so work hard to get out from under it.
We need more money from work, so we get new training.
The prefix “cyber” refers to computers and online systems and comes from the word cybernetics, which is about feedback systems and control.
It comes from the Greek word ?????????? (Kubernetes), which also gives us words such as govern and Kubernetes.
Psycho-cybernetics teaches us how to reach our goals using the power of self-image and imagination, to act as if it were impossible to fail, to study the people with talents we want, and to rehearse our actions in the theatre of the mind.
Be a person who succeeds at your goals, and you’ll succeed. Even if you can only be that person in your imagination, you can still become that person and then succeed.
