Last week at the end of his first session, my client asked me this question: "What do you think about the concept of the Law of Attraction?" Never one to miss an opportunity to answer a question with my own, I asked "What do YOU think about The Law of Attraction?" "Well, he said "I don't know if I really believe it. Come on, how can you just think about something and then have it happen? I thought about a new SUV yesterday and when I woke up, it wasn't sitting in my driveway." For ...
What you Need to Survive a Personal Earthquake
When an earthquake happens, you need to find a effective way to survive it. But not all earthquakes are the same. Earthquakes come in all forms . There are physical earthquakes like the one that began in Virginia yesterday and was felt in Philadelphia up to Boston. Then there are emotional earthquakes. These are the ones that happen to you personally. When emotional earthquakes happen to you, it might feel as if someone has punched the air out of you. Or you mind find yourself light ...
We hope you were shaken up by the Philadelphia earthquake.
5.8 Earthquake in Virginia. Felt in Pennsylvania, Philadelphia and New York. Did you feel it too? It kind of makes you think about your life. A moment ago we were sitting in our 2nd floor office when we heard a low rumble. Thinking that it was a truck on Route 30 in Wayne, we ignored it. A moment later we felt our building undulate and move under our seats. We were confused. Surprised. We looked each other and bolted out of our chairs and ran outside. Were you frightened? Did the ...

Surprising Technique Works When Nothing Else Does
Last night my Dad (age 82) and his wife were visiting us. While we were sitting outside on our porch, my father mentioned that the new medication he is on had been causing him "awful nausea." Apparently the nausea has been sapping his energy and he feels awful pretty much all day. On a whim, I asked him if he was interested in using a new technique that will reduce his nausea. I was thinking about using EFT Tapping (aka the Emotional Freedom Technique.) Now, a bit of ...
False Positive Thinking
Last week I was discussing how important it is to be aware of our thoughts with one of my clients who happens to be single. She mentioned that she is very mindful of what she is thinking. In fact, she is very careful to make sure that she only thinks positive thoughts. For example, she said, I made a date with someone on match.com and I'm being careful with how I think about it. "I'm not thinking negatively, she exclaimed. "I'm focusing on the positive. Whenever I think about my ...
What the Beatles can teach you about Positive Thinking
Remember the song, "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds"? For older folk, you might remember it as an ode to LSD. For the younger generation its a song with lovely lyrics and a sweet melody. I use the first two words in the song as a reminder to myself. The first two words are "Picture yourself..." I use these words in almost every hypnosis and EFT Tapping session at The Center of Success. When I tell a client to "Picture yourself..." I'm asking my client to imagine what it is that they ...
