It’s literally like ‘hacking’ into someone’s mind and commanding it from within.
The key thing to remember, is that the person you’re trying to influence cannot be
‘conscious’ of any form of blatant manipulation, otherwise you’ll encounter a lot of
resistance.
This is not to say they can’t be manipulated. You just don’t want them to ‘feel it’.
You see, the conscious mind is like a servo-mechanism to the subconscious mind.
Guess what? You really can’t help but think of a pink elephant can’t you?
This is exactly why you realize that we really couldn’t help but consciously disobey our
parents when we were young and they told us stuff like…
Our conscious mind can NOT be told what not to do. It can only do what the unconscious
mind tells it to do.
But as you master more Forbidden Persuasion skills, the easier and more automatic it
gets to embed commands like this without people realizing it.
Try reading that sentence out and emphasizing the words in bold slightly.
One of my favorite and easiest ways to do this is to use what is termed in ‘seduction’
circles as weasel phrases.
This term ‘weasel phrase’ was coined and popularized by ‘seduction guru’ Ross Jeffries.
Weasel phrases are seemingly innocent phrases that would cause your listener’s brain to
momentarily ‘buzz out’ and ‘drop their guard’ so that it would be the perfect time for you
to embed any command of your choice.
So if we were to embed the command “have sex”, it’ll look the following. Weasels are in
italics and embedded commands are in bold.
(I invite you to say these out loud and subtly emphasize the embedded commands)
What’s it like when you want to have sex?
If you were to feel like having sex…
As you feel like having sex…
What would it be like to feel like having sex…
I invite you to notice what it’s like to want to have sex…
It’s not necessary to feel like having sex…
Have you ever gotten so horny to the point where you feel like you must have sex
now?
You don’t have to feel like having sex…
How does it feel like to want sex now…
You really shouldn’t feel compelled to have sex…
Sidenote: The way you use weasels and embedded commands in print are
exactly as illustrated. Italics for weasels and bold for embedded
commands.
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
You see, one of the major keys to selling anything at all, is really not to ‘sell the product’
but to sell how the prospect will benefit from the product.
And unless your prospect can ‘see’ himself/herself benefiting from your product, it’s hard
to clinch the sales.
So when you write any form of copy, you wanna communicate to your prospect as
though they already purchased your product. For example:
As you are participating in this program, you will feel as if you are
on top of the world. Literally, you’ll feel like a million bucks.
Your entire life will be brighter, more fulfilled and you’re friends
will be jealous.
With writing in this manner, you will have your prospects visualizing what it will be like
to own your product. One way to accomplish this is to spend some time thinking to
yourself what your ideal prospects (the positive ones) will feel and experience owning
your product.
Visualize them sending you testimonials and expressing to you how great your product is.
Write down those feelings your ideal prospects will experience, and then put that in your
salesletter…
It is powerful.
Well, now, it’s already my car and I have not even bought it yet. That is a good example
of selling on assumption.
“You will feel rich driving your car with the leather seats and the
custom trim it has.”
Again, people buy on emotion. People do not buy on logic often. I mean, do you really
need that big screen TV with surround sound?
Of course not, you wanted it. People are interested in buying stuff they want… not need.
Here’s a 26 point checklist by direct mail hall of fame winner Ed Mayer of why people
buy, and if you align your appeals to any one of these reasons, it’ll be hard not to get
money.
1. To make money.
2. To save money.
3. To save time.
4. To avoid effort.
5. To get more comfort.
6. To achieve greater cleanliness.
7. To attain fuller health.
8. To escape physical pain.
9. To gain praise.
10. To be popular.
11. To attract the opposite sex.
12. To conserve possessions.
13. To increase enjoyment.
14. To gratify curiosity.
15. To protect family.
16. To be in style.
17. To have or hold beautiful possessions.
18. To satisfy appetite.
19. To emulate others.
20. To avoid trouble.
21. To avoid criticism.
22. To be individual.
23. To protect reputation.
24. To take advantage of opportunities.
25. To have safety.
26. To make work easier.
That is why the entire planet is in debt. They finance everything they want and ignore
paying things they need to pay for. Well, not the entire planet, but many…
Do you really need that steak dinner out on the town, or would a ham sandwich provide
the same thing?
Of course not, you wanted the steak dinner out on the town.
If you can appeal to your prospect’s wants and desires and couple that with feelings and
emotions… and in a manner where they ALREADY purchased your product, you are
well on your way to making more sales…
Also, get them to visualize themselves with your product. Most people are visual and
those who are not are just weird.
Actually, even those who are not visual and are more auditory, can still be focused on…
Just use certain words to get them to picture or hear what you want them to see or hear…
For example:
Auditory
I bet you can hear the engine roaring as you are speeding down the
highway. The sound of the wind whipping around your new car is
magical. Doesn’t that sound great?
Visual
I bet you can see yourself speeding down the road as onlookers
gaze at your new shiny luxury car. The metallic paint is radiant
and you are just smiling from ear to ear as you take a quick peek at
yourself in the mirror…
Again, these methods we are discussing right now are what 98% of the population knows
nothing about… All of these methods capture your prospects and get them to identify
with your sales message.
One other similar stimulus is to focus on people who are kinesthetic. These people are
more attracted to touch.
You can frame your statements to focus (or hit on…) those who are kinesthetic. Here’s a
quick example:
The leather seats feel great and are comfy. You can almost
take a nap in these and rest beautifully as they are so
cushiony. The instruments are slick and sleek. Notice how
it feels to turn corners in this luxury car. Feels pretty good
doesn’t it?
With sales messages, you have no idea if the prospect is visual, auditory or kinesthetic.
Therefore, you can mix in one of these types of stimulating statements for each.

Logical, Factual Appeals
Facts can be quite compelling if you use them correctly and psychologically.
It is quite important, in your sales message, to get the prospects to identify with you,
agree with you, trust you, see you as a credible source, and BELIVE YOU!
These facts are not about your product per say. Rather, they have to do with your
industry, or your target market.
For example, if your product is “how to lower your high blood pressure”, then you may
state a fact such as:
Now, that is a simple fact taken from The American Heart Association. It says nothing
about your product.
It is a simple fact.
However, it is quite alarming to those who are worried about having high blood pressure
isn’t it?
Earlier we discussed that it is important to disrupt your prospects and capture their
attention. Stating facts like that can help do the trick.
However, that’s not all these facts can do… read on.
After you state that fact, you provide some compelling information about your product
and how it will benefit the prospect. Then, you state another fact that flows with your
message (or writing…).
This means that most of the people who died as a result of high
blood pressure, knew they had it. In fact, a very large majority
knew they had high blood pressure.
With this product, you will drop your high blood pressure by using
natural remedies. This extensive program is geared towards saving
you tons of money as well.
Therefore, the prospect may link buying this product to saving money by not needing to
visit the doctor as often…
That is an example of using facts and statistics to frame your message. When prospects
read a letter in this manner, they will better identify with you. They will believe you
more.
It surely looks convincing that you are a credible source and that you know your stuff.
Plus, you can use these facts in this psychological manner to implant certain emotions or
thoughts into your readers’ heads…
You see, I know that most people want to work from home. I
know most want to have freedom to enjoy life more. Nothing
gives me more pleasure than helping people, like you, achieve
those dreams.
You are not alone though. There are plenty of people, just like
you, who want what I have to provide you. However, it is
unfortunate that most of them will never discover exactly how to
escape the rat race. In fact, did you know that…
Another thing to try is using this type of tactic offline with friends or family members…
Imagine being in a car on a trip with a few people. Everyone is talking along about
various subjects. You decide to start talking about this pizza place you used to hang out
at as a kid…
People in the car will start getting hungry. Someone will mention that it’s time to eat.
Although that might not be the greatest example in the world, the method works for
implanting the thoughts and feelings you want your visitors to experience.
One last twist on this method is that it does not need to be statistics or facts either. You
can use general statements to achieve the same types of results.
“This software will allow you to zip through your work easily and
effortlessly. Time is important, and this program will save you
tons of time. Additionally, you will not have to deal with all those
frustrations anymore. This software saves you from exerting
yourself.
Where else can you find a program that saves you time, relieve
frustration and help you make a ton of money?
Many people will read through a salesletter and catch bits and pieces of it. Some will
scan the sub-headlines. Others will read every word. That blanket statement above can
allow you to implant a specific “feeling” or “emotion” or “thought” in your reader’s
minds.
A classic example of this was an old advertisement for the Wall Street Journal, where at
the beginning of the ad, it explains how two friends went to college and worked their way
up the ranks for a bank. One became the president and the other remained a normal
working stiff.
Then, the ad goes right in to selling the readers on buying the Wall Street Journal.
Nowhere does it say that the one who reached the level of president did so by reading the
Journal. It says nothing about that.
However, the mind links the two together. At the end, you can not help but to think or
feel that by buying the Journal, you will be more successful!
At this point in this publication, you have discovered a few methods to convert more
prospects into buyers. You should be seeing that there is a lot more going on behind the
scenes than one would normally catch on about…
As we dive a bit deeper into more methods, please understand that much of this insight is
used by the largest and most successful ad writers and copywriters alive…
Many relate business to war. Competition is looked at as war. Well, if you are at war,
then you need weapons. Forbidden Persuasion is your secret weapon!
However, even a nuke bomb in the wrong hands is horrifying. Do your best to use these
seductive methods for the greater good of business.

Goji contains beta-sitosterol (shown to lower cholesterol levels). Its antioxidants keep
cholesterol from oxidizing and forming dangerous arterial plaques. And, the flavonoids
in Goji help to keep your arteries open and flowing smoothly.
PROOF: A 2004 study reported in Life Sciences demonstrated that Lycium barbarum
fruit extract significantly reduced total serum cholesterol, triglyceride concentration and
blood glucose, while markedly increasing HLD cholesterol (the “good” cholesterol).
If you are like most people, you don’t want to suffer the devastation of losing your
memory, your mind…or even your life…to neurodegenerative diseases such as
Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
If you are among the one in four U.S. adults with hypertension (high blood pressure),
you are at risk for numerous problems — including heart attack, stroke and kidney
failure. For this reason, high blood pressure is often called the "silent killer."
PROOF: Researchers from Beijing Medical University reported in a June 1998 issue of
the journal Acta Physiologica Sinica that increased blood pressure could be prevented
significantly by Goji’s unique polysaccharide.
The Chinese have used Goji to treat adult-onset diabetes for many years. Goji’s master
polysaccharides have been shown to help balance blood sugar and insulin response. The
betaine contained in Goji can also assist in preventing fatty liver disease and the vascular
damage often seen in diabetics.
PROOF: From the Journal of the Pharmaceutical Society of Japan, 2006: Clinical
findings suggest that Lycium barbarum polysaccharide can control blood glucose and
modulate the metabolism of glucose, leading to significant improvement of oxidative
stress markers in rats with NIDDM (non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus). They also
found that LBP decreases damage to DNA, possibly via a decrease in oxidative stress
levels.
Not surprisingly, the Goji fruit is revered as one of the premier sexual tonic herbs in all
of traditional Asian medicine, and is downright legendary for helping to spark the
passion. So much so that an old Chinese proverb recommends caution to men who are
traveling far from their wives and families: "He who travels one thousand kilometers
from home should not eat Goji!”
Modern findings indicate that Goji markedly increases testosterone in the blood, thereby increasing libido in both men

Assignment #1 by Paul Chow:
How would it feel to drink Goji juice and be on top of the world each and every day as
you roll out of bed in the morning? No headaches, no pain, and boundless energy to take
you through the day? You will feel energized, refreshed, and incredibly motivated to
confront life on your own terms and conditions. This is no idle pipe dream or fantasy.
Imagine drinking Goji juice and acquiring almost superhuman vitality that will
empower you to take on any challenges that come your way, and shrug them off like they
were nothing more than inconsequential flies?? Picture yourself being in the pink of
health, and possessing the feeling that you can go out and conquer the world? If you
were to drink Goji juice, you will feel exactly this way! Studies have proven that this
juice is a virtual fountain of youth in a bottle that will turn back the hands of time and
make you look and feel younger than ever before. As you drink the Goji juice, you will
begin to notice a remarkable change in yourself. Painstaking research has shown Goji is
capable of astounding feats that no other vitamin, supplement or liquid known to man
can do! Besides the well-known benefits which include strengthening your immune
system and prolonging your life span, it will also help you to maintain a healthy
weight, promote normal blood sugar levels, enhance sexual function, restore and
repair DNA, improve fertility….the list goes on and on!! I have saved the most
important point for last. Did you know that Goji is the most powerful anti-aging food
and supplement on earth? Its powerful blend of unique master molecule
polysaccharides and potent antioxidants help prevent premature aging as they help
your body fight the free radicals that bombard it constantly. In addition to that, you will
look and feel younger due to Goji’s ability to stimulate your pituitary gland to produce
hGH (Human Growth Hormone), also known as the ‘youth hormone’ since it
rejuvenates your body and turns back your biological clock! As you review the jaw-
dropping, awe-inspiring benefits of drinking Goji juice, would it make any sense at all
not to??
Jo Han’s Comments: This is great. The embedded commands have been used
appropriately alongside with the ‘weasels’ and trance words. However, if you want to use
these hypnotic devices in print, it’ll be more appropriate to add italics, to the weasels and
trance words.
Notice how I’ve also included a line break right after the trance word ‘imagine’.
It’s always a good idea to keep your sentences and pargaphs short.
Short, is hypnotic.
For example…
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
“Imagine…
Drinking Goji juice and acquiring almost superhuman vitality that will empower you
to take on any challenges that come your way, and shrug them off like they were nothing
more than inconsequential flies”
Stuff on health tends to include boring jargon, and the word pictures he used like
‘fountain of youth in a bottle’ that will ‘turn back the hands of time’ make it easier for the
prospect to imagine the benefits even better, and should be sprinkled liberally into the
copy.
Dear Friend,
It’s true and I am here right now to let you in on one of the world’s biggest secrets about
antioxidants. Picture this…
The facts are overwhelming…hundreds of university studies have proved that regular use
of antioxidants dramatically increases total circulation in the human body. When this
happens all parts of your body respond.
The physician’s desk reference cites over a hundred effects brought about by improved
circulation, here’s a few:
You don’t need a PhD. to figure out that means, thousands of people that have increased
their circulation and raved about their increased sex drive and explosive orgasms. Just
wait it gets better… It’s not only for men, women find that there desire for love making
increases 10 fold.
For hundreds of years Eastern cultures have known the secrets of achieving all the
benefits listed above. Hidden manuscripts have revealed that Goji has been a secret that
has been passed on from Emperor to Emperor as far back as the Ming Dynasty.
The secret is found in the bright red berry call Goji berry. The scientific name is Lycium
barbarum. It turns out that Goji is classed super oxidant, having the highest antioxidant
values of any substance. When crushed and dried the cherry red powder can be mixed
with water or juice making a flavorful pleasant drink. The powder can also be lightly
rubbed onto the skin where it is absorbed quickly resulting in a warm tingling sensation.
Let me show you hundreds of testimonials from totally satisfied customers, I am sure
you we see that what they had to say was pure happiness…their message is loud and
clear. You too will know the feeling as soon as you experience the magic of Gogi.
Order today!
Warmly,
Tim Johnson
PS. While you wait for your Gogi to arrive by express mail, I would suggest you get
some sleep, because you are going need your rest after your woman tries Gogi. You are
going to be busy lad! Get ready because it’s going to be on hell of a wild ride!
Jo Han’s Comments: First of all Tim, you gotta check on the grammar. The first word
should be ‘Imagine’ and not ‘Image’. Oh well, it was probably a typo cos I know how
excited you are about this course.
Secondly, I am very impressed in how comprehensive the ‘benefits’ of Goji are and how
you’ve enunciated so many of them in the copy.
One big mistake though, early in the copy, is that you don’t want to do things like
“OK...back to the present for a minute…”
Big BIG mistake. You’ve worked hard in the opener to create a trance state, and with that
statement you’ve erased everything you’ve done earlier because you’re implying “Hey,
that stuff you were thinking about ain’t real!”
When you evoke a trance state, you wanna KEEP them there!
Also, I don’t see many ‘weasel phrases’ and embedded commands. You want to
highlight these by italicizing the weasel phrases and bolding the embedded commands.
Also, there are hardly any word pictures. So make sure you try to use more of these
devices.
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
See yourself at your check up with your doctor. What would it be like to hear that your
blood pressure is now down to normal levels? You can now count yourself outside the
one in four U.S. adults with hypertension, so you are now less at risk from heart attack,
stroke and kidney failure. (Researchers from Beijing Medical University reported in a
June 1998 issue of the journal Acta Physiologica Sinica that increased blood pressure
could be prevented significantly by Goji's unique polysaccharide.) And what if you were
to be told that your cholesterol had reduced to an acceptable level.? (A 2004 study
reported in Life Sciences demonstrated that Lycium barbarum fruit extract significantly
reduced total serum cholesterol, triglyceride concentration and blood glucose, while
markedly increasing HLD cholesterol (the "good" cholesterol).) How does it feel to learn
that your blood sugar is now under control? (From the Journal of the Pharmaceutical
Society of Japan, 2006: Clinical findings suggest that Lycium barbarum polysaccharide
can control blood glucose and modulate the metabolism of glucose, leading to significant
improvement of oxidative stress markers in rats with NIDDM (non-insulin dependent
diabetes mellitus). They also found that LBP decreases damage to DNA, possibly via a
decrease in oxidative stress levels.) As you realise that this is all down to your drinking
Goji juice, you appreciate that this is the most important thing you have ever done for
you and your family's health and well being. It's not necessary to understand how Goji
juice works at a cellular level, just allow this super food to work like magic to turn you
into the epitome of glowing health! And you don't have to be a highly qualified medical
practitioner to notice the major health shifts that occur when you drink the Goji juice.
Quit being sick and tired of being sick and tired. Do the right thing - grab your bottle of
Goji juice NOW!
It take s a lot more details to get people to ‘see themselves’ at their checkup with their
doctor.
“You hand your appointment card over to the nurse and you’re ushered to the waiting
room. Beads of sweat gather around your forehead, and you feel your heartbeat racing at
a 100 miles per hour. What would the results of this health check be like?”
Other than that, the usual applies. The word pictures, italicization of the weasel phrases
and trance words and bolding embedded commands.

Submitted by Eric Grigsby
If you were to look at your body under a high powered microscope you could see the
battle that is raging every minute of every day as your bodies cells fight for their very
survival. This fight rages against disease, and foreign chemicals that are harmful, and are
literaly sucking the energy and youth right out of you. Once every 40 to 50 there is a
major breakthrough of discovery and in field of medicine. In the last 50 years no medical
discovery will have more profound affect on your life. Hidden high in the remote
mountain regions of Asia, this tiny fruit has more disease fighting life-force per ounce
then any other natural substance known to man.
You don’t have to be a health expert to take charge of tapping into the best kept secret to
doubling your energy, clearing your mind, improving your mood, and sustaining your
life. Three days after taking this new superfood I invite you to notice how you
consistently feel great, are full of youthful energy.
What would it be like to have total confidence and peace about your health while others
around you are attacked by cold and flu symptoms. These bugs have no chance of making
you sick because of your daily intake of Goji, your bodies 10 trillion cells, have an unfair
advantage to protect and defend your body against sickness, disease.
Imagine yourself a year from now, looking back on the moment when you decided to make the
decision that ultimately changed your life forever. That first purchase of goji juice.
You look and feel much more healthly than you ever have in you life
Experiencing a never ending river of new-found happiness and joy every single day
Now Imagine what it would feel like for all this to happen easily and automatically without any
effort on your part.
Now what if I told you that this was infact a proven possibility.
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
Of course you would. I mean how could a fruit produce such stunning health and wellness
benefits.
When you take a few minutes to read this letter all will be revealed....
One of the first things you will begin to notice is you start to feel more relaxed and that you’re
more aware of your day to day life. You will begin to have more boundless energy throughout
the day than you ever had before.
Which will improve your sex life no end! Increasing your desire to want it more! While keeping
your performance at a high level.
So tell me this do you want to bulletproof your immune system so that you can say goodbye
sickness forever? Of course you do! If you could no longer become sick…
Just think right now how that will feel …What would your life look like?
Im sure you’’l agree that this will be the best decision to buy you’ll ever make!
1. Remove the phrase “The first purchase of Goji juice”. That will put your prospect ‘on
guard’ as you’re trying to sell them something in the first line.
2. I do not know why you capitalized the first letter of the word imagine in the sentence.
“Now Imagine what it would feel like…”
As I’ve mentioned previously, trance words are best italicized, and embedded commands
bolded.
#3: Do not use a command ‘Believe Me”. Whether you use it as a command or just
include it on your copy, it’s not a good position to take as people perceive it as you
‘begging’ for the sale.
Visualise yourself …
What its like when you go to bed and have such a deep and restful sleep, to the
point where that when you wake up you are so full of energy and enthusiasm
that you are able to deal with everything the day can throw at you.
Knowing that each and every day you have the ability to remain centred, calm and
collected even when everyone else is flapping around struggling to deal with the
issues to hand.
You don’t have to deal with the stress and anxiety that so may people suffer in
today’s fast paced society
If you were to have a body that would resist disease and infections that the
average person succumbs to
What it’s like when you are the envy of your friends and family as you start to feel
and look younger they will be amazed at the new slimmer trimmer you.
What would it be like to consistently have blood pressure that stays comfortably
within the prescribed limits without having to stick to eating tasteless bland food
every single day.
How would it feel to control your digestion and reduce your cholesterol levels
whilst enjoying the benefits of a drink that not only tastes great but is actually
good for your body?
If you were to enjoy greater virility and be able to make love for longer, to
the point where your love life reached heights that you had never imagined
were possible in the past.
All of these benefits and many more are yours because you made the decision to
allow your body to benefit from one of the greatest super foods ever found, one that
can aid in the development not only of your body but also helps to stimulate your
mind and improve your memory.
Jo Han’s Comments: This is the best example of weasel phrases. Dave, you did a good
job including so many of them. It’s a great assignment with little correction needed. Just
2 things though.
1. It’ll be more powerful to just use the word “Visualize…” instead of “Visualize
yourself…”
2. You didn’t really use much word pictures.
What would it be like to melt 10 pounds easily in one week? Picture how your life
would be different… Feelings of shame and unimportance are long gone. They were
exchanged by the happiness and power your slim new sexy body gives you. You now feel
more respected, more energetic and most important more attractive. I invite you to notice
how all the men that ignored you are on their knees with hope you will accept their
date invitation. To the point where you have to turn down all invitations to go out with
that one special guy you always day dreamed about. You really shouldn't care about all
the other guys you didn't go out with… Face it there's nothing you can do, all you can
think about is how rewarding and rewarding your new life is. How does it feel like to
wake up on comfy bed besides your secret crush after a perfect night? All you can
think about is how he passionately kisses your whole body and brings your favorite fresh
squeezed juice…
Jo Han’s Comments: This is another great example of superb use of weasels and
embedded commands.
1. Sometimes, weasel phrases can be more effective when replaced with a trance word.
For example “What would it be like to…” becomes “Imagine...”
There is a delicate balance between the two. An overdose of weasel phrases makes it
seem like you’re incoherent.
What’s it like when you feel years younger after drinking your Goji juice? Your
friends will accuse you of using an illegal stimulant because you will have so much
energy you’ll feel like a teenager who can work all day, play all night and still ace the
final exam.
Goji is the ancient nutrient rich natural fruit that has been used in
traditional Chinese medicine for nearly 2,000 years. “Legend has it that a
man named Li Qing Yuen who was born in 1678 and died in 1930. He
lived 252 years! What was the secret to his long, happy, active life? It was
daily consumption of a 'soup' made of the Goji berry, existing only in the
remotest regions of western Asia.”
Imagine having the libido of a teenager who just can’t turn off their sex drive and
appeals to the opposite sex without even trying. No more looking for those pills online
and worrying if they’re legit, or before someone catches you taking a look at those spam
emails for \/ | /\ *#! that keep clogging your inbox and spam folders. You’d want to
experience more frequent and intense orgasms, wouldn’t you?
Not surprisingly, the Goji fruit is revered as one of the premier sexual
tonic herbs in all of traditional Asian medicine, and is downright
legendary for helping to spark the passion. So much so that an old
Chinese proverb recommends caution to men who are traveling far from
their wives and families: "He who travels one thousand kilometers from
home should not eat Goji!”
What would it be like to be able to see without glasses or contact lenses anymore?
Goji’s powerful antioxidant carotenoids may protect against AMD and cataracts.
What would it be like to feel younger, have more energy, less stress, better sex,
eliminate morning headaches and feel happy all the time? Just listen to what others
who have tried it have said …
You are special, you are now one, one of the ten thousand who will ever get to know
about this Mysterious Superfood Secret.
You really shouldn’t tell your friends and family about this secret Superfood Secret
because you’ll want to keep it all to yourself.
It’ll be just our little secret between you and me. They’ll never know. But if they continue
to pester you how about why you look so good, and what did you do to your hair, clothes
etc. Just wink and smile. It’s our little secret. They can get a new suit, or hair cut, or
even a new car. So what? Because you’ll have the secret Goji Juice that’ll make you feel
great, “rest” and sleep more easily and they’ll be jealous of you because they won’t
know how you do it. You’ll definitely be the envy of your friends.
Jo Han’s Comments: Yet another model assignment. I’m speechless! One thing to make
sure of is that you break up your paragraphs into short ones, and try to use short
sentences.

Forbidden Persuasion 102
A key ability for practitioners of the persuasion arts is the ability to put your subjects into
trances and get them to do your bidding.
But do note, that this has nothing to do with the hokey stage performances typically seen
on TV sideshows, where you have members of the audience barking like dogs, or rolling
on the floor, scratching themselves.
Because we want our subjects to do our bidding, all while they’re fully awake, and yet
haplessly following our every command.
Hemingway formulated the Iceberg Theory, based on the fact that most of
communication transpires in an incognito fashion.
”
the writer had stated them. The dignity of movement of an iceberg is due to
only one-eighth of it being above water. A good writer does not need to
reveal every detail of a character or action.
Just imagine this for a moment, every iceberg you’ve ever seen in any documentary,
represents only a tiny fraction of it’s total mass.
Close to 90% of the iceberg lies hidden below the murky depths.
You might even go as far as to question “What the hell does a hidden iceberg have to do
with persuasion!”
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
And you’d be right to not care about this. That is, unless you were on board the RMS
Titanic in 1912.
Imagine that, the SuperLiner with a Gross Registered Tonnage of more than 46,000
tonnes, named as the pinnacle of naval architecture and epitomizing the height of
technological progress was brought down by a block of frozen water!
To be successful in the field of forbidden persuasion requires that we undertake the steps
to unlock the secrets of the mental iceberg, incorporate the secrets within to apply it
effectively.
Most people will only ever communicate at a conscious level, like the tip of the iceberg
which is seen above the waterline.
If you fail in your attempts to influence others, it will be because you have failed to
follow the prime principle behind the Mental Iceberg system, that is:
People are more interested in themselves, and couldn’t care about you!
Well, that’s not entirely true, but they care about themselves about 1,000 times more than
they do about you.
And if you think about this for a moment, the same holds true for you too. The single
most important person you are interested in, is yourself.
So bear in mind that the other person’s self-interest will be placed above everything else.
They may not say it, or even hint at it, but it sure as heck, rides tall above all other
priorities in their unconscious thinking.
Let’s begin:
The Driver Must Know The Destination
When was the last time you were in your car driving to a new location, perhaps a friends
new home for a housewarming?
Like it or not, your fellow passengers in the car were with you the entire trip (unless they
jumped out of your moving car).
Likewise, in effective persuasion, you MUST communicate with a clear goal in mind.
Before you even start applying any of the Mental Iceberg strategies in any of your
communication, you will already have in mind:
The Direction of the communication
The Goal of the communication
The direction of the communication has to do with knowing how to navigate and steer the
conversation.
As you’re interacting with the other person, you’ll inevitably encounter road blocks in
your communication.
The resistance that others will place in front of you, is an indication that you need to use
your skills to clear any objections or resistance they might have.
If you want to reach your eventual destination, you will need to clear the path of these
expected, and unexpected obstacles along the way.
-
The goal is something you should have in mind as you’re interacting. What action is the
other person supposed to take.
Would you expect them to make a financial commitment? Or take a particular action?
If you have a clear picture of the outcome you expect to achieve, you will have a greater
chance of achieving success.
There is a saying that “Nice Guys Finish Last” and there is more than a kernel of truth in
this.
Nice guys will finish last because that’s just it, they are too nice, to have any goal in
mind.
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
To be blunt, they are too clueless to have a clear goal in mind, and that is why they fail.
Why You Cannot Afford To Have Your Audience Sit On The Fence
The death knell is any interaction is hearing the other person tell you that you “should
just be friends”.
The worst emotional state is for someone to feel neutral, or even worse, indifferent
towards you.
A stationery iceberg will be near impossible to move. But one that is moving, even if it’s
in the wrong direction, can be brought about and steered to be moved in the right
direction.
In any relationship, you can work with negative emotions like jealousy, hatred, or even
pity.
In the hands of a masterful practitioner, these emotions can be steered into positions of
like, love, or even lust!
Just imagine what it could do for your relationships, and your business.
As you’ve just discovered, emotions are the master to accessing the unconscious 90% of
the mental iceberg.
Most information exchanged on a daily basis will be of an informational nature, such as:
“What time is it?”
“Is the project complete?”
“Where would you like to go for lunch?”
It’s no secret that women are usually more adept when it comes to getting men to do their
bidding. The difference lies in the emotional connection.
Emotions don’t serve any ‘useful’ function, compared to facts and figures, but they are
important because they trigger our innermost motivations. We might do something out of
a sense of pride, or duty, or jealousy.
When meeting someone for the first time, create an emotional connection.
Here’s an example:
YOU: Have you ever felt an INSTANTANEOUS CONNECTION with someone? (point
at yourself). Perhaps you were looking at them, and you started to PAY CLOSE
ATTENTION to what they were saying, as if there was a strong MAGNETIC FORCE,
drawing you closer to them, and building a CONNECTION to them? And you might
have this SENSATION that you have known them for years, and years, and felt a
CLOSENESS?
THEM: Hmm…yes
YOU: And I think it’s quite funny how some people can JUST DO THAT and LET IT
HAPPEN NATURALLY because for me I take time to WARM UP TO OTHERS. But I
find that if you really PAY ATTENTION to the other person during the conversation,
and you START TO RECOGNIZE those qualities in them that you hold dearly in
yourself…(pause)…WITH ME…that is the time when you make the CONNECTION and
FEEL THE GROWING BOND
As you’re reading through the sequence above, you will realize that there isn’t a whole
lot of ‘information’ or ‘facts’ being exchanged. Rather the conversation is focused very
much on the person you are talking to. It builds on the fact that you are paying attention
to how they’re feeling, and building on your observations and subsequently, you steer the
direction of the conversation towards your desired outcome (a growing bond with you).
By it’s very nature, persuasion is often more experiential, and based on a feeling, rather
than cold, hard facts.
When was the last time you made a big ticket item choice, or a major decision in your life
based on drawing up a list of Pros and Cons, creating a spreadsheet and running a
computation to get the results?
Or did you think about it, while you were laying in bed, tossing and turning, and finally
arriving at some solution, when you woke up one morning?
Once you have established an emotional connection with the person (also known as close
rapport), you can be proactive in moving towards your outcome.
One of the ways to slip in your commands are to use conversational softeners.
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
These are particular words that you use, that soften the impact of what you say, so that it
doesn’t sound like a command. But at the same time, these words allow you to give
commands, while you slip in ‘under the radar’ and just like a stealth bomber infiltrating
into enemy airspace, they will never know what hit them.
“You know, I hope you don’t mind me asking you this, but one of the things I like to do
is to find out about the person I’m getting to know, and I do that by asking questions
about what’s important to them. So as you look at me and think about what we’re talking
about, I’d just like to ask you:”
These softeners work because they put the person’s unconscious mind at easy before you
include your commands.
Note: Use softeners liberally, as they become more natural to you, you will find that
you’re able to ask probing questions, and come across as a polite and respectful person,
instead of a manipulative conversationalist.
You could try to reason your way through these objections, and likely be partially
successful.
If you choose an emotional approach, you will stand more than a fighting chance.
The principle of negation rests on acknowledging the resistance you encounter, at the
same time including embedded commands into the mix.
Yes, you’re right. I shouldn’t be asking for a lower price. I shouldn’t be pressing
so hard to get a better deal out of this discussion. And you don’t have to agree
with everything I am saying right now!”
Yes, you don’t need to imagine yourself a month from now, having accepted all
the conditions I’m asking for now, already having been totally satisfied with our
partnership, and looking back on today as having been the start of it.
Quotes
Quotes are a way of repeating what someone else has said (but it’s what you want the
person you’re talking to to hear). When the direct approach (saying what you want to)
will not likely work, having someone else say it in the form of a quote would work very
well.
Here’s an example:
“I was walking down the street, when I overheard this guy say to the person next
to him “Hey, could you imagine that she passed up on the opportunity to partner
with the big company? She just gave up on a huge quantity of new business! It’s
unthinkable!”
“I was sitting down at lunch with a colleague and he looked at me and said “Hey,
you know for every one of us, there’s a perfect person out there just sitting there
right in front of us, and as we look at them in the eyes, we realize that they’ve
been there for us all along”
Quotes are a powerful way of saying what we mean to say, but going through the other
person’s alert radar. Because we’re relating a command indirectly, the person will have
little resistance to our suggestion.
Stories
Stories may sound similar to quotes, but where quotes are focused on what someone else
has said, stories focus on what someone else has experienced.
This is more powerful because it will put your subject in the shoes of the person in the
story.
Example:
What’s the feeling of running a successful business? It’s like the lifestyle of my friend,
Jeff, who is just like you or I. And when Jeff wakes up in the morning, his typical day is
something along the lines of:
Waking up whenever he wants to, typically after everyone has gone to the offices hours
ago. He just lies in his large, soft bed, waking up sometime near noon. Then he takes five
steps to his computer, logs into his payment processing account, and looks at how much
his businesses have earned in the night, when he was asleep. If he feels like it, he’ll go for
a jog. Otherwise, he’s log on and chat with his friends about the upcoming vacation that
they’re planning. After lunch (and an afternoon nap), he’ll either go for a game of tennis
with his girlfriend, or catch a movie at the theatre. He’s watched all the recent releases,
good and bad. And as he’s sitting there, just feeling contented about the lifestyle that he
has created for himself, the sensation of being satisfied, spreads like a warm feeling
throughout his body, giving him an aura of contentment and peace, knowing that he has
created the lifestyle he truly desires for himself.
By describing the physical and emotional aspects of what you want your subject to
experience, you put them in the shoes of the person in the story. This creates a personal
“virtual reality” for the person involved, and they will relate as if they’ve gone through
the experience themselves.
So far, we’ve covered the primary steps in the Mental Iceberg theory, the stages are:
1) Have a clear idea of your intended direction and outcome
2) Create an emotional connection
3) Steer the Conversation toward an intended goal
4) Amplify the feelings you create and then link them to the intended goal
The process of creating the outcome you want lies squarely in your ability to raise the
emotions you want.
Remember the mantra: “He who controls the emotions win”.
Too often, people are caught up in the false belief that “He who has the most facts win”.
The reason why some legal cases (especially in front of a jury) are won on the basis not
of evidentiary proof, but because the lawyer was adept in swaying the emotions of the
jury.
In recent years, there have been a number of high profile legal cases involving celebrities.
Due to the skills of their legal counsel, the defendant was judged innocent of all charges.
Despite your personal beliefs, you have to give credit to the legal defense team on their
ability to convince the jury of their clients innocence.
There are several elements of the Mental Iceberg theory if you study their statements
carefully.
If you want to get your subject to take the action you desire, it requires that you put them
into a trance state.
The definition of a trance state is one where your subject is in an altered state of
consciousness.
Which may not mean a lot to you now, but it will make a major difference in the results
you see.
Your consciousness is how you are feeling right now, at this moment.
And your state of mind, changes from moment to moment. You can feel happy one
moment, and sad the next. It is this ability to switch states from something that you don’t
want (resistance) to something that you want (your goal), that gives you powerful to
influence others.
Pattern Interrupt
At any point in time, everyone has a goal or outcome they want to achieve.
For example, walking up to someone and saying “No” is a way of closing off the option.
But what if you want a person to say “Yes”, when the word “No” is in their minds?
That’s where the Pattern Interrupt comes in. You want to break their “No” pattern.
To break their “No” pattern and replace it with another response, you can use one of the
following conversation killers:
What these statements will do is stop your subject dead in their tracks in a “Huh?”
moment, and you will follow these statements with a command immediately.
Creating a state of confusion means that their conscious mind has to focus on
understanding what you just said.
While their conscious mind is fully occupies on what you just said, you slip in a
command “under their radar” and their unconscious mind accepts the command and
follows it.
So the name of the game is to confuse the conscious or active mind, taking up its full
attention, so you can slip commands to their unconscious mind.
Mastering these mind numbing techniques will give you unlimited access to insert
commands, and you’ll be pleasantly surprised at the influence you’ll be exerting.
Unspecified Nouns
A noun is a person or object. By making reference to something and leaving out
important information, you force the person to use their mind to sort out what you’re
saying and what you means.
While their mind is occupied, your command will be accepted by their unconscious mind.
For example:
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
As you’re throwing up all these mental obstacles, you occupy your subjects frontline of
resistance, meanwhile your embedded commands are like commandos slipping into their
unconscious, and you’ll observe that they start following your commands word-for-word.
Skeptical? These sequences work precisely because they go against the grain of common
sense (which is factually-based and mostly ineffective anyway).
Unspecified Verbs
Verbs are action words. When you include the generalized version of a verb in your
conversation, you create an open situation, where your subject has to unconsciously
figure out “how exactly” you expect your words to be interpreted.
For example:
Get the project completed now € How do you want the project to be completed?
I want you to resolve this argument € How would the argument be resolved?
He hurt me € How exactly did he hurt you?
I’m trying to fix my computer € How are you going to fix your computer?
When you generalize a verb, the person you’re talking to will do their best to understand
what you’re saying.
By leaving out the exact steps or context, you make them work to understand what you’re
saying. And when their conscious mind is focused on understand the obvious part of your
speech, you include an embedded command.
For example:
“Please fix my computer before the end of the day, when you go downstairs, take the
trashcan and tie up the bag and bring it outside now, and while you’re outside clear
the snow from the sidewalk --- it’ll only take you five minutes to do, so get a move on,
and you’ll be done in no time.”
The usage of unspecified verbs seems like common sense. And when you think about it,
as a child you needed to have the exact steps spelled out for you. For example, instead of
“clean your room”, you might be told:
And as you grew older, “clean your room” represented those small tasks.
What we’re doing is to reverse engineer the process, by using the reverse word “clean
your room” to get the conscious mind cranking on figuring out the small tasks.
While that is going on, the embedded commands do the dirty work for you.
Presuppositions
Based on our experiences, we carry a set of beliefs and attitudes and we make
assumptions based on these expriences.
It’d be impossible to live without the benefit of what we’ve done before, because we’d
need to relearn a new task or skill every time we needed to (imagine having to relearn
how to open a jar of jam every time!)
Can you see how presuppositions make assumptions that the commands that follow are
logical and “make sense”?

Think about it

Linguistic Binds
Linguistic binds are simple and powerful. The listener will think that what you say makes
sense, and it’s another powerful form of hypnotic persuasion.
Linguistic binds consist of two parts, the first is something that the person experiences,
the second part is what you want them to think or feel.
For example:
As you sit there and read this text, you will find your awareness of persuasion
secrets increasing by the second, growing to make you an expert in this hidden
art.
Now that you’ve learned to use the computer better, I’m sure you will feel more
confident about starting up your own online business today, won’t you?
As you think about what others are doing around you, you’ll realize that you only
have one choice to take and that’s to make a commitment to spend time practicing
your persuasion techniques daily to reach your goals.
For example:
The more you realize the power of persuasion techniques, the more effectively
you will convert your prospects into sales.
The more you read, the more you realize that success is all about applying these
techniques into action, to create the life you’ve always dreamed of.
Cause and Effect
The human mind can be lazy, and if a link can be made between an action, and a result it
creates, and it sounds reasonable the mind is likely to accept it.
For example:
It rained, and I got wet. (It rained, and you were standing in a park, and you got wet).
So it sounds logical.
But at the same time, with umbrellas and rain shelters being easily available, the fact that
you got wet when it rains, doesn’t need to be true.
If your mind doesn’t go into these details, you will tend to accept the statements as they
are presented.
More examples:
Traffic was heavy, so I was late. [Again, traffic jams will not be a cause of you
being late if you leave early enough to avoid any delays…But the mind is lazy
and will latch on to the reason for that.]
It’s tax season and I owe more taxes than I expected. Here’s a firesale on all my
products. You can benefit! [What does paying taxes have to do with discounting
your products???]
The human mind will always look for the easiest path out to explain and understand any
situation it’s presented with.
Cause and effect can be particular devastating because popular culture creates the belief
that person or things can cause emotional changes.
Popular culture already creates the belief (and countless subscribe to them), that people
have the power to create emotions, or beliefs in others. Even though the truth is that
people are responsible for their own emotions.
To use cause and effect is not easy though, it requires you to understand your subject
well, so that your statements are consistent with their beliefs.
“I make miracles happen!” will work with someone who trusts what you’re saying. But
walking up to a stranger on the street, and saying that without first establishing an
emotional connection, will only get you strange looks.
Comparisons
A powerful technique when offering an option to your audience is to make a judgement
of its value by using a comparison.
For example:
This is the best product in the market today [what market are you referring to? It’s
the best compared to what else?]
New, Fridges are better [better compared to what?]
XYZ Widget are absolutely terrible! [terrible compared to what?]
Best
Better
Worse
Worst
This opens the floodgates for you to follow up with a followup “because…” statement,
such as:
Product ABC is the best because it uses steel-enhanced tips, instead of many
competitors who use copper, in the market today.
Our new widgets are better. Take a look at our competition. As you’re looking,
you notice flaw A, and flaw B. Now mind you, our product doesn’t look that
great, and is in fact a little cheap, isn’t it? But when you compare the benefits, you
realize that our widgets are much more effective than the one you’re holding
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
Summary
Many would be persuader fail because they only use the head-on “facts and figures”
approach which will lead to a collision when they face massive resistance from their
prospects “mental iceberg” (where more than 90% of the resistance resides below the
level of consciousness)
Transcript/Log: Martin Luther King at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom
(August 28, 1963)
But 100 years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred years
later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of
segregation and the chains of discrimination. One hundred years later, the
Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of
material prosperity. One hundred years later, the Negro is still languished
in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own
land. And so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.
take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. Now is the time to make real the
promises of democracy. Now is the time to rise from the dark and
desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. Now is the
time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid
rock of brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of
God's children.
It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment.
This sweltering summer of the Negro's legitimate discontent will not pass
until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality. Nineteen
sixty-three is not an end but a beginning. Those who hoped that the Negro
needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude
awakening if the nation returns to business as usual. There will be neither
rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship
rights. The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of
our nation until the bright day of justice emerges.
But there is something that I must say to my people who stand on the
warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice. In the process of
gaining our rightful place we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us
not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of
bitterness and hatred. We must forever conduct our struggle on the high
plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to
degenerate into physical violence. Again and again we must rise to the
majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force. The marvelous
new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to
a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced
by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied
up with our destiny. And they have come to realize that their freedom is
inextricably bound to our freedom. We cannot walk alone.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the
true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all
men are created equal."
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of
former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down
together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state
sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression,
will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation
where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content
of their character.
I have a dream that one day down in Alabama, with its vicious racists,
with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition
and nullification - one day right there in Alabama little black boys and
black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as
sisters and brothers.
I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every
hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain,
and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord
shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together.
This is our hope. This is the faith that I go back to the South with.
With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a
stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling
discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this
faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle
together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing
that we will be free one day.
This will be the day, this will be the day when all of God's children will
be able to sing with new meaning "My country 'tis of thee, sweet land of
liberty, of thee I sing. Land where my father's died, land of the Pilgrim's
pride, from every mountainside, let freedom ring!"
But not only that; let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia.
Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi - from
every mountainside.
Let freedom ring. And when this happens, and when we allow
freedom ring - when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet,
from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when
all of God's children - black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles,
Protestants and Catholics - will be able to join hands and sing in the words
of the old Negro spiritual: "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty,
we are free at last!"

Transcript/Log: Vice President Johnson, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Chief Justice, President
Eisenhower, Vice President Nixon, President Truman, Reverend Clergy, fellow citizens:
The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish
all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life. And yet the same revolutionary
beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe--the belief that
the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God.
We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go
forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a
new generation of Americans--born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a
hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage--and unwilling to witness or permit
the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed,
and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.
Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear
any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival
and the success of liberty.
To those old allies whose cultural and spiritual origins we share, we pledge the loyalty of
faithful friends. United there is little we cannot do in a host of cooperative ventures.
Divided there is little we can do--for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds and
split asunder.
To those new states whom we welcome to the ranks of the free, we pledge our word that
one form of colonial control shall not have passed away merely to be replaced by a far
more iron tyranny. We shall not always expect to find them supporting our view. But we
shall always hope to find them strongly supporting their own freedom--and to remember
that, in the past, those who foolishly sought power by riding the back of the tiger ended
up inside.
To those people in the huts and villages of half the globe struggling to break the bonds of
mass misery, we pledge our best efforts to help them help themselves, for whatever
period is required--not because the communists may be doing it, not because we seek
their votes, but because it is right. If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it
cannot save the few who are rich.
To our sister republics south of our border, we offer a special pledge--to convert our good
words into good deeds--in a new alliance for progress--to assist free men and free
governments in casting off the chains of poverty. But this peaceful revolution of hope
cannot become the prey of hostile powers. Let all our neighbors know that we shall join
with them to oppose aggression or subversion anywhere in the Americas. And let every
other power know that this Hemisphere intends to remain the master of its own house.
To that world assembly of sovereign states, the United Nations, our last best hope in an
age where the instruments of war have far outpaced the instruments of peace, we renew
our pledge of support--to prevent it from becoming merely a forum for invective--to
strengthen its shield of the new and the weak--and to enlarge the area in which its writ
may run.
Finally, to those nations who would make themselves our adversary, we offer not a
pledge but a request: that both sides begin anew the quest for peace, before the dark
powers of destruction unleashed by science engulf all humanity in planned or accidental
self-destruction.
We dare not tempt them with weakness. For only when our arms are sufficient beyond
doubt can we be certain beyond doubt that they will never be employed.
But neither can two great and powerful groups of nations take comfort from our present
course--both sides overburdened by the cost of modern weapons, both rightly alarmed by
the steady spread of the deadly atom, yet both racing to alter that uncertain balance of
terror that stays the hand of mankind's final war.
So let us begin anew--remembering on both sides that civility is not a sign of weakness,
and sincerity is always subject to proof. Let us never negotiate out of fear. But let us
never fear to negotiate.
Let both sides explore what problems unite us instead of belaboring those problems
which divide us.
Let both sides, for the first time, formulate serious and precise proposals for the
inspection and control of arms--and bring the absolute power to destroy other nations
under the absolute control of all nations.
Let both sides seek to invoke the wonders of science instead of its terrors. Together let us
explore the stars, conquer the deserts, eradicate disease, tap the ocean depths and
encourage the arts and commerce.
Let both sides unite to heed in all corners of the earth the command of Isaiah--to "undo
the heavy burdens . . . (and) let the oppressed go free."
And if a beachhead of cooperation may push back the jungle of suspicion, let both sides
join in creating a new endeavor, not a new balance of power, but a new world of law,
where the strong are just and the weak secure and the peace preserved.
All this will not be finished in the first one hundred days. Nor will it be finished in the
first one thousand days, nor in the life of this Administration, nor even perhaps in our
lifetime on this planet. But let us begin.
In your hands, my fellow citizens, more than mine, will rest the final success or failure of
our course. Since this country was founded, each generation of Americans has been
summoned to give testimony to its national loyalty. The graves of young Americans who
answered the call to service surround the globe.
Now the trumpet summons us again--not as a call to bear arms, though arms we need--not
as a call to battle, though embattled we are-- but a call to bear the burden of a long
twilight struggle, year in and year out, "rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation"--a
struggle against the common enemies of man: tyranny, poverty, disease and war itself.
Can we forge against these enemies a grand and global alliance, North and South, East
and West, that can assure a more fruitful life for all mankind? Will you join in that
historic effort?
In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of
defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this
responsibility--I welcome it. I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with
any other people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion which we
bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it--and the glow from that
fire can truly light the world.
And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you--ask what you
can do for your country.
My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together
we can do for the freedom of man.
Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world, ask of us here the
same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good
conscience our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth
to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on earth
God's work must truly be our own.
I can therefore allow my mind, with the experience of a lifetime, to play over the
problems which beset us on the morrow of our absolute victory in arms, and to try to
make sure with what strength I have that what has been gained with so much sacrifice
and suffering shall be preserved for the future glory and safety of mankind.
The United States stands at this time at the pinnacle of world power. It is a solemn
moment for the American Democracy. For with primacy in power is also joined an awe-
inspiring accountability to the future. If you look around you, you must feel not only the
sense of duty done but also you must feel anxiety lest you fall below the level of
achievement. Opportunity is here now, clear and shining for both our countries. To reject
it or ignore it or fritter it away will bring upon us all the long reproaches of the after-time.
It is necessary that constancy of mind, persistency of purpose, and the grand simplicity of
decision shall guide and rule the conduct of the English-speaking peoples in peace as they
did in war. We must, and I believe we shall, prove ourselves equal to this severe
requirement.
When American military men approach some serious situation they are wont to write at
the head of their directive the words "over-all strategic concept." There is wisdom in this,
as it leads to clarity of thought. What then is the over-all strategic concept which we
should inscribe today? It is nothing less than the safety and welfare, the freedom and
progress, of all the homes and families of all the men and women in all the lands. And
here I speak particularly of the myriad cottage or apartment homes where the wage-
earner strives amid the accidents and difficulties of life to guard his wife and children
from privation and bring the family up in the fear of the Lord, or upon ethical
conceptions which often play their potent part.
To give security to these countless homes, they must be shielded from the two giant
marauders, war and tyranny. We all know the frightful disturbances in which the ordinary
family is plunged when the curse of war swoops down upon the bread-winner and those
for whom he works and contrives. The awful ruin of Europe, with all its vanished glories,
and of large parts of Asia glares us in the eyes. When the designs of wicked men or the
aggressive urge of mighty States dissolve over large areas the frame of civilized society,
humble folk are confronted with difficulties with which they cannot cope. For them all is
distorted, all is broken, even ground to pulp.
When I stand here this quiet afternoon I shudder to visualize what is actually happening
to millions now and what is going to happen in this period when famine stalks the earth.
None can compute what has been called "the unestimated sum of human pain." Our
supreme task and duty is to guard the homes of the common people from the horrors and
miseries of another war. We are all agreed on that.
Our American military colleagues, after having proclaimed their "over-all strategic
concept" and computed available resources, always proceed to the next step-namely, the
method. Here again there is widespread agreement. A world organization has already
been erected for the prime purpose of preventing war, UNO, the successor of the League
of Nations, with the decisive addition of the United States and all that means, is already at
work. We must make sure that its work is fruitful, that it is a reality and not a sham, that
it is a force for action, and not merely a frothing of words, that it is a true temple of peace
in which the shields of many nations can some day be hung up, and not merely a cockpit
in a Tower of Babel. Before we cast away the solid assurances of national armaments for
self-preservation we must be certain that our temple is built, not upon shifting sands or
quagmires, but upon the rock. Anyone can see with his eyes open that our path will be
difficult and also long, but if we persevere together as we did in the two world wars -
though not, alas, in the interval between them - I cannot doubt that we shall achieve our
common purpose in the end.
I have, however, a definite and practical proposal to make for action. Courts and
magistrates may be set up but they cannot function without sheriffs and constables. The
United Nations Organization must immediately begin to be equipped with an
international armed force. In such a matter we can only go step by step, but we must
begin now. I propose that each of the Powers and States should be invited to delegate a
certain number of air squadrons to the service of the world organization. These squadrons
would be trained and prepared in their own countries, but would move around in rotation
from one country to another. They would wear the uniform of their own countries but
with different badges. They would not be required to act against their own nation, but in
other respects they would be directed by the world organization. This might be started on
a modest scale and would grow as confidence grew. I wished to see this done after the
first world war, and I devoutly trust it may be done forthwith.
Now I come to the second danger of these two marauders which threatens the cottage, the
home, and the ordinary people - namely, tyranny. We cannot be blind to the fact that the
liberties enjoyed by individual citizens throughout the British Empire are not valid in a
considerable number of countries, some of which are very powerful. In these States
control is enforced upon the common people by various kinds of all-embracing police
governments. The power of the State is exercised without restraint, either by dictators or
by compact oligarchies operating through a privileged party and a political police. It is
not our duty at this time when difficulties are so numerous to interfere forcibly in the
internal affairs of countries which we have not conquered in war. But we must never
cease to proclaim in fearless tones the great principles of freedom and the rights of man
which are the joint inheritance of the English-speaking world and which through Magna
Carta, the Bill of Rights, the Habeas Corpus, trial by jury, and the English common law
find their most famous expression in the American Declaration of Independence.
All this means that the people of any country have the right, and should have the power
by constitutional action, by free unfettered elections, with secret ballot, to choose or
change the character or form of government under which they dwell; that freedom of
speech and thought should reign; that courts of justice, independent of the executive,
unbiased by any party, should administer laws which have received the broad assent of
large majorities or are consecrated by time and custom. Here are the title deeds of
freedom which should lie in every cottage home. Here is the message of the British and
American peoples to mankind. Let us preach what we practice - let us practice - what we
preach.
I have now stated the two great dangers which menace the homes of the people: War and
Tyranny. I have not yet spoken of poverty and privation which are in many cases the
prevailing anxiety. But if the dangers of war and tyranny are removed, there is no doubt
that science and co-operation can bring in the next few years to the world, certainly in the
next few decades newly taught in the sharpening school of war, an expansion of material
well-being beyond anything that has yet occurred in human experience. Now, at this sad
and breathless moment, we are plunged in the hunger and distress which are the
aftermath of our stupendous struggle; but this will pass and may pass quickly, and there is
no reason except human folly or sub-human crime which should deny to all the nations
the inauguration and enjoyment of an age of plenty. I have often used words which I
learned fifty years ago from a great Irish-American orator, a friend of mine, Mr. Bourke
Cockran. "There is enough for all. The earth is a generous mother; she will provide in
plentiful abundance food for all her children if they will but cultivate her soil in justice
and in peace." So far I feel that we are in full agreement. Now, while still pursuing the
method of realizing our overall strategic concept, I come to the crux of what I have
traveled here to say. Neither the sure prevention of war, nor the continuous rise of world
organization will be gained without what I have called the fraternal association of the
English-speaking peoples. This means a special relationship between the British
Commonwealth and Empire and the United States. This is no time for generalities, and I
will venture to be precise. Fraternal association requires not only the growing friendship
and mutual understanding between our two vast but kindred systems of society, but the
continuance of the intimate relationship between our military advisers, leading to
common study of potential dangers, the similarity of weapons and manuals of
instructions, and to the interchange of officers and cadets at technical colleges. It should
carry with it the continuance of the present facilities for mutual security by the joint use
of all Naval and Air Force bases in the possession of either country all over the world.
This would perhaps double the mobility of the American Navy and Air Force. It would
greatly expand that of the British Empire Forces and it might well lead, if and as the
world calms down, to important financial savings. Already we use together a large
number of islands; more may well be entrusted to our joint care in the near future.
The United States has already a Permanent Defense Agreement with the Dominion of
Canada, which is so devotedly attached to the British Commonwealth and Empire. This
Agreement is more effective than many of those which have often been made under
formal alliances. This principle should be extended to all British Commonwealths with
full reciprocity. Thus, whatever happens, and thus only, shall we be secure ourselves and
able to work together for the high and simple causes that are dear to us and bode no ill to
any. Eventually there may come - I feel eventually there will come - the principle of
common citizenship, but that we may be content to leave to destiny, whose outstretched
arm many of us can already clearly see.
I spoke earlier of the Temple of Peace. Workmen from all countries must build that
temple. If two of the workmen know each other particularly well and are old friends, if
their families are inter-mingled, and if they have "faith in each other's purpose, hope in
each other's future and charity towards each other's shortcomings" - to quote some good
words I read here the other day - why cannot they work together at the common task as
friends and partners? Why cannot they share their tools and thus increase each other's
working powers? Indeed they must do so or else the temple may not be built, or, being
built, it may collapse, and we shall all be proved again unteachable and have to go and try
to learn again for a third time in a school of war, incomparably more rigorous than that
from which we have just been released. The dark ages may return, the Stone Age may
return on the gleaming wings of science, and what might now shower immeasurable
material blessings upon mankind, may even bring about its total destruction. Beware, I
say; time may be short. Do not let us take the course of allowing events to drift along
until it is too late. If there is to be a fraternal association of the kind I have described,
with all the extra strength and security which both our countries can derive from it, let us
make sure that that great fact is known to the world, and that it plays its part in steadying
and stabilizing the foundations of peace. There is the path of wisdom. Prevention is better
than cure.
A shadow has fallen upon the scenes so lately lighted by the Allied victory. Nobody
knows what Soviet Russia and its Communist international organization intends to do in
the immediate future, or what are the limits, if any, to their expansive and proselytizing
tendencies. I have a strong admiration and regard for the valiant Russian people and for
my wartime comrade, Marshal Stalin. There is deep sympathy and goodwill in Britain -
and I doubt not here also - towards the peoples of all the Russias and a resolve to
persevere through many differences and rebuffs in establishing lasting friendships. We
understand the Russian need to be secure on her western frontiers by the removal of all
possibility of German aggression. We welcome Russia to her rightful place among the
leading nations of the world. We welcome her flag upon the seas. Above all, we welcome
constant, frequent and growing contacts between the Russian people and our own people
on both sides of the Atlantic. It is my duty however, for I am sure you would wish me to
state the facts as I see them to you, to place before you certain facts about the present
position in Europe.
From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic, an iron curtain has descended across
the Continent. Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of Central and
Eastern Europe. Warsaw, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade, Bucharest and
Sofia, all these famous cities and the populations around them lie in what I must call the
Soviet sphere, and all are subject in one form or another, not only to Soviet influence but
to a very high and, in many cases, increasing measure of control from Moscow. Athens
alone - Greece with its immortal glories - is free to decide its future at an election under
British, American and French observation. The Russian- dominated Polish Government
has been encouraged to make enormous and wrongful inroads upon Germany, and mass
expulsions of millions of Germans on a scale grievous and undreamed-of are now taking
place. The Communist parties, which were very small in all these Eastern States of
Europe, have been raised to pre-eminence and power far beyond their numbers and are
seeking everywhere to obtain totalitarian control. Police governments are prevailing in
nearly every case, and so far, except in Czechoslovakia, there is no true democracy.
Turkey and Persia are both profoundly alarmed and disturbed at the claims which are
being made upon them and at the pressure being exerted by the Moscow Government. An
attempt is being made by the Russians in Berlin to build up a quasi-Communist party in
their zone of Occupied Germany by showing special favors to groups of left-wing
German leaders. At the end of the fighting last June, the American and British Armies
withdrew westwards, in accordance with an earlier agreement, to a depth at some points
of 150 miles upon a front of nearly four hundred miles, in order to allow our Russian
allies to occupy this vast expanse of territory which the Western Democracies had
conquered.
The safety of the world requires a new unity in Europe, from which no nation should be
permanently outcast. It is from the quarrels of the strong parent races in Europe that the
world wars we have witnessed, or which occurred in former times, have sprung. Twice in
our own lifetime we have seen the United States, against their wishes and their traditions,
against arguments, the force of which it is impossible not to comprehend, drawn by
irresistible forces, into these wars in time to secure the victory of the good cause, but only
after frightful slaughter and devastation had occurred. Twice the United States has had to
send several millions of its young men across the Atlantic to find the war; but now war
can find any nation, wherever it may dwell between dusk and dawn. Surely we should
work with conscious purpose for a grand pacification of Europe, within the structure of
the United Nations and in accordance with its Charter. That I feel is an open cause of
policy of very great importance .
In front of the iron curtain which lies across Europe are other causes for anxiety. In Italy
the Communist Party is seriously hampered by having to support the Communist-trained
Marshal Tito's claims to former Italian territory at the head of the Adriatic. Nevertheless
the future of Italy hangs in the balance. Again one cannot imagine a regenerated Europe
without a strong France. All my public life I have worked for a strong France and I never
lost faith in her destiny, even in the darkest hours. I will not lose faith now. However, in a
great number of countries, far from the Russian frontiers and throughout the world,
Communist fifth columns are established and work in complete unity and absolute
obedience to the directions they receive from the Communist center. Except in the British
Commonwealth and in the United States where Communism is in its infancy, the
Communist parties or fifth columns constitute a growing challenge and peril to Christian
civilization. These are somber facts for anyone to have to recite on the morrow of a
victory gained by so much splendid comradeship in arms and in the cause of freedom and
democracy; but we should be most unwise not to face them squarely while time remains.
The outlook is also anxious in the Far East and especially in Manchuria. The Agreement
which was made at Yalta, to which I was a party, was extremely favorable to Soviet
Russia, but it was made at a time when no one could say that the German war might not
extend all through the summer and autumn of 1945 and when the Japanese war was
expected to last for a further 18 months from the end of the German war. In this country
you are all so well-informed about the Far East, and such devoted friends of China, that I
do not need to expatiate on the situation there.
I have felt bound to portray the shadow which, alike in the west and in the east, falls upon
the world. I was a high minister at the time of the Versailles Treaty and a close friend of
Mr. Lloyd-George, who was the head of the British delegation at Versailles. I did not
myself agree with many things that were done, but I have a very strong impression in my
mind of that situation, and I find it painful to contrast it with that which prevails now. In
those days there were high hopes and unbounded confidence that the wars were over, and
that the League of Nations would become all-powerful. I do not see or feel that same
confidence or even the same hopes in the haggard world at the present time.
On the other hand I repulse the idea that a new war is inevitable; still more that it is
imminent. It is because I am sure that our fortunes are still in our own hands and that we
hold the power to save the future, that I feel the duty to speak out now that I have the
occasion and the opportunity to do so. I do not believe that Soviet Russia desires war.
What they desire is the fruits of war and the indefinite expansion of their power and
doctrines. But what we have to consider here to-day while time remains, is the permanent
prevention of war and the establishment of conditions of freedom and democracy as
rapidly as possible in all countries. Our difficulties and dangers will not be removed by
closing our eyes to them. They will not be removed by mere waiting to see what happens;
nor will they be removed by a policy of appeasement. What is needed is a settlement, and
the longer this is delayed, the more difficult it will be and the greater our dangers will
become.
From what I have seen of our Russian friends and Allies during the war, I am convinced
that there is nothing they admire so much as strength, and there is nothing for which they
have less respect than for weakness, especially military weakness. For that reason the old
doctrine of a balance of power is unsound. We cannot afford, if we can help it, to work
on narrow margins, offering temptations to a trial of strength. If the Western
Democracies stand together in strict adherence to the principles of the United Nations
Charter, their influence for furthering those principles will be immense and no one is
likely to molest them. If however they become divided or falter in their duty and if these
all-important years are allowed to slip away then indeed catastrophe may overwhelm us
all.
Last time I saw it all coming and cried aloud to my own fellow-countrymen and to the
world, but no one paid any attention. Up till the year 1933 or even 1935, Germany might
have been saved from the awful fate which has overtaken her and we might all have been
spared the miseries Hitler let loose upon mankind. There never was a war in all history
easier to prevent by timely action than the one which has just desolated such great areas
of the globe. It could have been prevented in my belief without the firing of a single shot,
and Germany might be powerful, prosperous and honored to-day; but no one would listen
and one by one we were all sucked into the awful whirlpool. We surely must not let that
happen again. This can only be achieved by reaching now, in 1946, a good understanding
on all points with Russia under the general authority of the United Nations Organization
and by the maintenance of that good understanding through many peaceful years, by the
world instrument, supported by the whole strength of the English-speaking world and all
its connections. There is the solution which I respectfully offer to you in this Address to
which I have given the title "The Sinews of Peace."
Let no man underrate the abiding power of the British Empire and Common-wealth.
Because you see the 46 millions in our island harassed about their food supply, of which
they only grow one half, even in war-time, or because we have difficulty in restarting our
industries and export trade after six years of passionate war effort, do not suppose that we
shall not come through these dark years of privation as we have come through the
glorious years of agony, or that half a century from now, you will not see 70 or 80
millions of Britons spread about the world and united in defense of our traditions, our
way of life, and of the world causes which you and we espouse. If the population of the
English-speaking Commonwealths be added to that of the United States with all that such
co-operation implies in the air, on the sea, all over the globe and in science and in
industry, and in moral force, there will be no quivering, precarious balance of power to
offer its temptation to ambition or adventure. On the contrary, there will be an
overwhelming assurance of security. If we adhere faithfully to the Charter of the United
Nations and walk forward in sedate and sober strength seeking no one's land or treasure,
seeking to lay no arbitrary control upon the thoughts of men; if all British moral and
material forces and convictions are joined with your own in fraternal association, the
high-roads of the future will be clear, not only for us but for all, not only for our time, but
for a century to come.

Practical Assignment:
Your practical assignment for this training session is to create a fictional conversation on
any topic of your choice that does the following:
You can use any of the hypnotic devices you’ve learnt to do this.
Remember, the ‘outcome’ has to be crystal clear. “Give me the job”, “ have sex with
me”, “buy this product now”.
I’d recommend a weasel opener that leads into a story with strong embedded commands
which are disguised by ‘softeners’ and vivid word picture painting to ‘future pace’ the
reader.

Assignment #2: by Theodore Chan
I invite you to notice what it feels like to spend every day like it was a lazy Sunday.
That is exactly the lifestyle that my friend, Fred, who is just like you, now enjoys.
Imagine the birds are singing and twerping, the sky is blue and you roll out of bed fully
rested and energized. You feel so happy and peaceful and know that you will have a
fulfilling day, doing exactly what you want; when you want with whomever you want.
Fred has never been healthier, happier, and looks years younger since he discovered
ASR. He was just like you, maybe even worse… He would wake up at 4:00 AM every
day, commute 2 hours each way to do some computer work, be a drone in a cube. The
work was alright, the pay was decent, but could’ve been higher (whoever says they get
paid enough anyways?), but something was just missing.
The first time Fred read about ASR, he immediately bought it and devoured the
contents. It filled the gap. They thought that he had a lot of potential. They were right!
Fred was able to easily make enough money so that he could quit his J-O-B and do what
he truly loved, watch his infant daughter learn to crawl and coaching high school
basketball. Obviously, you can generate more income. Fred has the freedom of life and
the time to enjoy it. He can now do what he wants, when he wants with whomever he
wants.
When your ASR package arrives, immediately devour the content, then follow it as per
the step by step outline and give it a week to ‘load up’ bank account.
Jo Han’s Comments: This is very well done assignment. It could do with more ‘word
pictures’ to make it more powerful.
There is also a little ‘too much’ going on about Fred, and you need to ‘throw it back’ to
the prospect as a way of eliciting more ‘criteria’ and ‘values’ so that you can sprinkle
them in the form of embedded commands later.
“Firstname, what is the most important thing you look for in a business opportunity”
Me: Ever feel like you could go for a drive somewhere just for the sake of the sheer
fun of doing it?
Me: Haven’t you ever felt like just getting into your car and just driving because you feel
like it? Not because you need to get somewhere or do something, but just to enjoy the
sheer unadulterated experience of controlling a powerful and precise machine that
literally reads your will and obeys, and rewards you with input that shows you precisely
what it is doing?
2nd person: Hmm, well, I have never really thought about driving in that way before.
Me: There are times when I just feel like getting in it and driving and driving without
stopping except to sleep; I can’t wait to hear the intoxicating mellifluous roar of the
engine, the wind in my hair, and the subtle vibrations and kickback in the steering wheel
as it reacts to the road. I also get such a thrill from rowing through the gears and pointing
and twirling the steering wheel, making it bend to my will almost like it was an extension
of my body.
2nd Person: What do you think could cause you to feel such passion and derive such
enjoyment from driving?
Me: Naturally, everyone has to feel a connection with the car that they are driving. One
has to feel at one with the road and the machine, because driving is all about being
immersed in the experience. This is actually very thrilling and addictive, if one goes
about it the right way.
2nd Person: This is a very unusual way of looking at driving. Please go and tell me more, I
am really curious to hear more about your take on it. Quite truthfully, I have never ever
really looked at it this way before.
Me: A friend of mine who is a Formula 1 race car driver puts it very succinctly when he
says, “Driving is all about interaction between man and the machine. It is almost like a
love affair between the two, and the closer they are, the more one will enjoy driving. You
have to hear it, feel it, smell it even.”
2nd Person: Wow, I have never really heard driving described in such passionate terms!
Me: Well, this is a true story; three years ago he let me take the reins of his sports car as I
had won a little bet over a woman we were both interested in. I won’t bore you with the
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
excruciating details as this is a story for another time and place! Anyway, we left from
his place up in the hills, and started driving down this incredibly twisty and winding
mountain road that leads up to his house. The narrowness and bumpiness of the road
forced me, initially at least, to concentrate on steering it and judiciously using the gas
pedal so as not to over inadvertently drive off the edge of the mountain! Strangely
enough, after several minutes I started to feel at home in it, and I was twirling the wheel
fluidly and working the brake and gas pedals gracefully, making the car fly and sing its
beautiful aria, reaching obscene and illegal speeds in the process.
Me: Well, I was driving a very rare and obscure car called the Pagani Zonda. It is a
limited edition sports car of which only 800 copies are produced every year. It is an
exquisite car produced in a little village in Italy, where artisans cut and stitch everything
in the upholstery, and practically everything is handcrafted, from the dashboard to seats
to the engine, which is painstakingly assembled by just two highly trained craftsmen who
also place their autographs on it. The car is rigorously tested on the highway at extremely
high speeds and also on a test track before even going on sale. It is so technically
sophisticated that you become a better driver by default!
2nd Person: Wow, I had no idea that so much attention and care could be lavished on what
is basically an automotive conveyance.
Me: As you sit in the car, you will feel at one with the road, and it will make you drive
better, smoother, and faster than ever before. It is almost effortless in the way it makes
you a better driver. It leaves me with no other choice than to recommend you to go out
and buy one for yourself.
2nd Person: It sounds like a really awesome car, but it sounds really expensive and maybe
even a little frivolous.
Me: The less you try to understand, the more you’ll get it.
Me: You just have to buy the Pagani to understand what I mean.
Me: Follow along with me for a moment here. Pretend that you don’t want to enjoy
driving, you don’t want to feel the thrill of controlling and machine and becoming one
with the road, you don’t want to clip apexes on the road with the same precision that
surgeon wields his scalpel. Think about how dull and unrewarding driving an automotive
appliance just designed to convey you from point A to point B would be. Imagine never
Me: Well, that is why you need to buy the Pagani Zonda, and leave behind the dreariness
of automotive appliances designed by bean counters.
2nd person: You could be right. I should see about test driving the Pagani.
Me: You are doing the right thing, believe me when I say this. You will not be
disappointed.
Jo Han’s Comments: This is an excellent use of hypnotic devices. What would make
this much more powerful is not to ‘hard sell’ the car too much.
Too many of the commands seem like you’re asking the prospect to buy the car.
The objective would be to get the prospect in a ‘trance’ to imagine the ultimate driving
experience, and then shoot to ‘close’ test drive.
The easiest way obviously, would be to say, nothing beats you actually experiencing it
for yourself.
Here’s an example:
“Mr Prospect, just from the watch you’re wearing, I can tell that you obviously go for the
finer things in life. Clearly a normal ‘run of the mill’ vehicle to take you from point A to
point B will not be enough for a person like you. You want flash, you want speed, you
want performance blah blah…”
It’s important at the end of it all, you wanna ‘take it away’ a little and just tell the
prospect to decide for himself, and whether or not he can live with himself settling for
‘second best’.
Assignment #2 by Tim Johnson
The setting is a presentation in a board room at an oil company. The oil company has a
bad record of environmental compliance and I am there to convince them that they
require my services in environmental auditing. Its an beautiful fall day, the sun is shining
brightly through the big boardroom windows.
It’s 8am and I arrive at the office of Big Oil. I am there early to set up my laptop and
projector for my presentation. I mention to the receptionist that is very nice of her let me
into the boardroom before everyone arrives. It’s 8:15 and incomes Big Oils
environmental coordinator. His name is Ken; this is great that I get some face time one
on one with him because he has a lot of pull when it comes to deciding on who get the
environment auditing contract.
He enters the room and looks surprised to see me all set up and ready to go, his comment
was:
Howdy Tim you sure are an early bird, I am usually the first guy in the boardroom for
these early meetings.
My response was hi Ken it’s nice to see you again (nice firm handshake and eye contact),
thanks for setting up this meeting; I’ve got great photos from our helicopter flight last
week… You know it’s funny, but you and I were the only Troopers that didn’t get sick
when we hit that turbulence on last leg of the flight.
Ken…that’s right Tim, now that mention it those others guys woofed their cookies…
(We both laugh)…I respond I could tell when they showed up for the chopper ride with
street shoes and dress pants that they were not experienced, but when I saw you with your
hiking boots, backpack and rain jacket I could see you were a seasoned field guy…a
Trooper…Funny but we were the only ones that packed extra food and a tent, good thing
because when we had to put the chopper down and spend the night I knew that you were
the one guy that I could depend on…with my life. Funny how near death situations bring
people together and you know I really felt comfortable when we communicating with
hand signals on the pontoons…like we both had ESP…yah funny eigh…Yup…sure is!
Hey, last night when we finally got the tent set up you mentioned something about the
problems with wildlife study from your last consultant…the wind was blowing so hard
that I couldn’t hear everything you said, just so I understand was that the Duck Study in
the marshland.
Its 8:30 now and here is the section Director and his two planners. Ken introduces me and
for the next 20 minutes I walked them through the slide presentation and when we got to
the discussion on my fees I encountered some resistance. I stated the following:
Yes, you’re right. I wouldn’t ask for you to give me a higher fee, it’s up to you. I
wouldn’t be pressing hard to get a better deal out of this discussion. And you don’t have
to agree with everything I am saying right now!
Yes, you don’t need to imagine yourself a month from now, having accepted all
the conditions I’m asking for now, already having been totally satisfied with our
partnership and looking back on today as having been the start of it.
Upon reviewing the wildlife study the conservation offer was wondering why would you
believe something that’s not true. I wouldn’t condemn my peers from the other company
that conducted the Duck study; I just feel it’s my duty to pass on what the Conservation
Officer mentioned. Ethically, I can’t say they broke the law with false results, that’s up to
the judge.
As you think about what others are saying in town, you might be in a position where you
have to defend your decisions, I can’t advise you to act quickly and make a commitment
to spend right now, and it’s up to you.
In summary, I can’t say my company is better or even best for this job because that’s not
the way we operate, we just do our very best every time for every customer and we fully
guarantee our work 100%.
It’s up to you to decide, I don’t have a crystal ball, and I can’t tell you that the CEO will
go to jail over the Duck report scandal. What I can tell you is we are here for you and we
have arranged to have the best wildlife biologist ready on short notice when you need us.
The End
PS. The charges were dropped. My company now advises Big Oil Ltd on all
environmental matters.
Jo Han’s Comments: Good use of weasels and trance words. Once again, the big thing
here that would make a critical difference is word pictures.
Assignment #2 by David Thomas
Have you ever found yourself when meeting someone for the first time warming to them
immediately; suddenly it’s as if you have known them for years. You don’t know why
but for some strange reason you listen closely to what they have to say, clearly there
seems to be a real connection between you, instinctively you know this person is
someone you can trust and rely on.
You may not see each other for months but as soon as you meet up again that bond is
there
Well my friend Tom is someone who falls in to that category as soon as I met him I
thought this guy is genuine he tells it as it is and over the years that has proved to be the
case.
Picture this
I had not seen Tom for around four months when out of the blue I get a call from him
asking if I would like to meet up for lunch one day the following week, so without any
hesitation I told him that I would love to meet up with him
On the allotted day I made my way to this little Italian Bistro in the centre of town you
know the type of place, the red and white checked table cloths the waiters in their white
aprons and big genuine smiles and lots of loud banter back and forth, as soon as you walk
in you feel your spirits lift.
Looking around the place I spot Tom at a table over in the corner and make my way
across to him as I get closer I can see that he is well tanned and looking full of the joys of
life,
It transpired that he had just returned from a month long vacation to Barbados where he
had been having a great time Scuba Diving, Water Skiing, Para gliding etc through the
day and dining out on fine food and drink every night.
As I said earlier Tom and I get on really well so I just came straight out and asked him,
how could he afford to pay for such a holiday and how did he get a month off work?
Well I have got to say I nearly fell off my chair when he told me he was working for
himself on his Internet Business.
To give you a little background Tom and I used to work together in the Financial
Services Industry and to say that Tom was a little technically challenged when it came to
computers would be an understatement, even though the programs we were using were
basic menu driven ones Tom was regularly at my door asking for help. You can imagine
how shocked I was when he told me he was making thousands a week on the internet.
The one thing I did know was that if Tom was telling me this, then it had to be the truth.
The next thing that came into my mind was I had to know how he was doing this.
With a slightly disbelieving look I said to him “Tom no offence mate but you were never
the most computer literate person in the world so how can you be making all this money
on the internet?”
He just laughed when I said that and said Dave I remember all the times I used to come to
you for help, so I can understand your disbelief. If someone had said to me a year ago
that I would be making my fortune on the internet and only having to work an hour or
two a day I would have told them they must have got me confused with someone who
actually knows how to use a computer.
Then came the role reversal when we worked together I used to be the Manager and Tom
the Financial Adviser I could see the twinkle in his eyes as he said to me
What would it be like if I could show you a way to earn thousands a month and only
work an hour or two a day would this be of interest to you?
Me - yes Tom
Tom - If you had a step by step foolproof plan laid out for you to follow would this be of
benefit to you
Tom - What if you had every step available to you on video showing you not just what to
do but more importantly how to do it and a timescale to do everything in would you like
that.
Me – to true I would
Tom - If you were to have everything you needed to get your business up and running
and making a profit in just a few days available to you at no extra cost would this help
you
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
Tom – If 97% of the work was already done for you, so that you don’t need to be a
computer whiz to get your business up and running do you think you would want to get
started right away?
Tom - What if I was to tell you that you could get all of this for less than the price of our
lunch today!
Me - Tom stop prolonging the agony just tell me where to sign up!!!
Well that was 3 months ago, has it been as good as Tom said? Well let’s say that I have
just booked a month’s holiday with my mate Tom we are going to Bali this time. Why
don’t you join us? Just go to the order button below sign up and see how easy it is to be
able to live your life instead of just existing.
I have based the assignment for lesson 2 on a fictional situation where I am providing a
live sales presentation to a struggling firm, who require assistance in business strategy
and optimizing employee performance. I chose this as a challenge as I know very little
about the subject and actually repossess houses for a living!
ME: Have you ever heard of the real story of how one man's amazing rise to personal
financial wealth also catapulted America into the most powerful nation at the start of the
century?
ME: Well, this incredibly influential man spotted a major flaw in working methods in his
industry, a flaw which is still been used in companies in many industries all around the
world today leading to stagnation, lack of growth and the eventual demise of many
companies.
It's this flaw which is clearly hindering many companies growth and the worst part it is ...
nobody knows how to solve it even though this secret has been used by all of the most
successful companies all over the world.
Instead, firms are been ripped apart and go out of business because:
a.. Employees are leaving companies in droves, with skyrocketing turnover rates
b.. Managers are losing control leading to a sharp decline in productivity for the manager
and employees below
c.. Sales and profits are reducing as the domino effect begins to take hold
d.. Companies growth begins to slide and sink into quicksand and desperately clinging
on to dear life
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
e.. Clients expectations are not been met and the shocking likelyhood is your business
could drop down dead
Now I just wanted to ask you this, and I hope you don't find it too intrusive but is your
employee turnover high, and has your companies growth come to halt?
FIRM: Yeah, our average employee retention is less than 7 months and we have been
struggling to grow as a company over the last couple of years or so.
ME: Your response says what you are unaware of. Clearly you require a new way of
thinking, which is what you are receiving today.
Now, picture your company as it begins to march forward, your competitors scratching
their heads wondering how you are suddenly so profitable, you have the freedom to
spend more time with your families ... you are truly enjoying life now that you have left
all the stress behind ... you are on your 3rd dream vacation already this year ... your stress
has just vanished into thin air.
And all it takes to achieve this is implementing just a few secrets that this one man used
to build a global wealth empire.
You know, it was just a year ago when I shared these lost secrets with another business
leader called John Smith, and you wouldn't believe what he said at the time. He said,
'Whoa! I can't believe that these secrets have not been unleashed before! It's amazing to
think that I can take my business to a whole new level by just changing a few small
things that nobody else in my industry even knows exist'.
Now you are maybe feeling really skeptical about this, and that's cool. I would be
skeptical too.
But just one year later, John Smith's profits have quadrupled ... his staff are now
extremely happy ... staff turnover has declined faster than a rapid river ... he has zero
stress in his life ...
John has taken 3 dream holidays this year ... basking in the sun as the waves lap gently at
his feet ... he can go pick up his kids from school everyday and is now even known as
superdad to all the other parents!
Suddenly, you begin to realize just how powerful this information you are implementing
is, and as you listen to my voice you are beginning to understand how important it is to
have these secrets in your possession today.
And as you picture the competitors that seek to destroy your business for their own gain,
you will begin to realize that owning these secrets is your only chance to fight back and
ME: Yes. The man I have mentioned is known by all. His amazing breakthroughs
revolutionized an industry, brought stunning personal wealth, as well as an amazing
lifestyle to macth.
The company he started in 1903 is still building wealth to this very day all over the
world. His name was Henry Ford creator of the Ford Motor Company.
Oh and the secrets that he personally used boiled down just 2 things, which amazingly,
virtually most people don't even know about:
a.. Integration
In fact without implementing these 2 small secrets any business will die.
Picture the scene at the turn of the century ... the motor car is now available and man can
can get from A to B without horse and wagon.
Henry Ford sat down and said to himself "How can I get more cars produced faster, more
efficiently, at less cost, with less stress whilst demolishing my competition like a
sledgehammer?"
"These 2 little secrets will propel my company forward, make the automobile available to
everyone and bring me amazing wealth". And the assembly line was born.
It wasn't with working harder ... it wasn't through working longer hours ...
FIRM: So what you're saying is that we need to develop an assembly line to develop our
products? That's no secret, we have been using an assembly line since we started the
company 3 years ago.
ME: Yes you're right. The assembly line is used by everyone. It isn't a
secret that many companies now use an assembly line.
But just imagine for second as you listen to my voice, if you were to use this division of
labor technique with your own daily tasks. And visualize your employees and managers
utilizing this mind blowing concept in their own working day.
b.. Managers would have a complete iron grip and even the smallest details
f.. Competitors will be left in the dust as you burst on ahead and leave them trailing
behind
g.. You will have tons more free time as the business takes care of you
h.. The dream lifestyle ... the holidays ... more time with the family will become a reality
You see, everyone is reacting to the work around them instead of controlling the work.
With me on your side your employees will fully understand how to control their work
and quadruple their productivity and finally give you the dream lifestyle, exceptional
profits that will turn others green with envy.
(I would at this point hand out testimonials from other business owners stating how their
business as quadrupled in profit, living the dream etc)
FIRM: This sounds quite incredible, but how exactly would this work? What exactly is
you are offering?
ME: Clearly you are beginning to see just how powerful this information is. And if you
are ready to achieve optimal business growth you will receive the following:
b.. I work with all employees both one on one and in workshops teaching how to
implement the division of labor into their own day to achieve optimal productivity and
job satisfaction
c.. We develop a titanium strength business plan for you to carry out to crush your
competition and bring unheard of profit levels in your business
d.. An 8 part DVD recording of my breakthrough workshop from 2004 detailing in exact
steps how I took several companies to millions of pounds worth of profit each year
e.. A 12 part DVD set explaining the division of labor concept and how to utilize it in
your own working day, so that new starters in your growing company quickly grasp the
concepts and begin implementing them seamlessly
f.. Phone support for a whole 12 months so that you can call me anytime, anywhere to
discuss any challenges you have.
Obviously this is something that will transport your business to new levels at warp speed
and the more you begin realize just how powerful this division of labor is, the more you
will begin to see a seismic shift in your company growth and quality of life your life.
And just by investing the small sum of £9,997.00 your business will be rocketed to a
whole new level, an amazing lifestyle will be literally handed to you on a plate as your
business begins to look after you whilst earning more money than you ever thought
possible.
FIRM: I see the value in what you are offering, but I know that another firm offer
business coaching for less than half what you are charging. Why should I pick you over
them?
ME: The business coaching you will receive from me is the best because I offer a number
of things other companies simply cannot provide. I know one firm who don't provide any
ongoing support whereas with me I hold you by the hand for a whole year.
Other firms I know don't even realize that you will have new employees who will need to
master these unique secrets so your business ends up where you started. That is where my
12 part DVD set comes in. So although you invest more with me, you begin to realize the
benefits and long term gains were worth 10 times the investment at least.
Jo Han’s Comments: This is a very good script. In fact, I’d say this is THE model
assignment of the week.
Craig, I think you’ll be reasonably pleased when you try out this script. The only caveat
is that you must prepare multiple ‘outs’.
In short, your script should be a framework that is flexible enough to accommodate the
prospect should they choose to say ‘no’ anytime in the process.
Also, I’d tweak the opener, as it’s not easy to ‘lead into’ the opener in real life.
I know that more than anything else in the world, you want to know what it’s like to be a
pop singing star – it’s what you’ve been dreaming about. You watch American Idol
every week desperately wishing you were one of the contestants.
What would you say if I told you that it isn’t necessary to participate in the American
Idol contest to win – and that it’s also isn’t even necessary to spend thousands upon
thousands of dollars trying to record your own demo cd to try to attract a recording
company to sign you as one of their artists?
What if I further told you that in order to achieve your goal of becoming a famous singer
– with all that goes with it – is as simple as buying a short book and following the
instructions to a “T”?
Imagine the joy you’ll feel when you hear the crowd at your sold-out concert cheer for
you to sing one more encore. Feel the jealous vibes you get from other “wannabe”
celebrities who haven’t quite achieved the level of success that you have. Envision the
adoring fans fighting through the throng to get your autograph.
You’re probably saying “it can’t possibly be that simple” – and in a way, you’re right. It
actually is simple: but it’s not easy. And you probably know that anything really worth
having isn’t easy. But the simple. “follow the steps”, guide book to becoming a star is
very doable. Many have done it – and it’s built the foundation of adoring fans that
propelled those who have followed it to stardom. But, you have to follow the instructions
– and do the work. If you don’t, you might as well keep watching those episodes of
American Idol and continue dreaming.
But if achieving your goal without having to be one of thousands to make it to the final
few who actually compete on American Idol – and do it in a systematic way that almost
ensure success – is for you – then click the link below to buy the book that will teach you
the industry secrets of how to become a singing sensation.
Jo Han’s Comments: Good use of weasels. This is more of sales copy rather than a
conversation.
One thing to note Amy, is that hypnosis is usually a result of ‘vagueness’. Being
deliberately vague about something somewhat forces a person to go into a ‘trance’ as he
has to imagine what you actually mean.
Why not use the ‘invisible man’ technique and say “I’m not psyhic, but I can pretty much
guess that there a ‘part’ of you that secretly yearns to be a pop star. I mean, who doesn’t
want to be famous?
Can you see the ‘difference’ from copy like this versus the traditional ‘sales letter’?
Look at how many times I’ve used the word “maybe”. I use this because one of the
biggest reasons people don’t buy your product is not because your product is bad, or the
sales copy is bad. It is because they lack confidence, so making them go ‘maybe’ unlocks
their dreams and hopes again.
So apply what I’m teaching you here, and you’ll find your speech and copy acquiring a
more hypnotic quality faster and easier than ever before.
Assignment #2 by Cliff Rose
Man is standing with his horse in a stall after competing, grooming his horse down.
I approach with keen and admiring look.
(Me)
Well hello there, what a beautiful mount she is, isn't she ?.
(me)
I have a feeling you did really well in that round.
It must be a magnificent feeling ... when you're riding her.
How does it feel, riding such a magnificent horse ?.
(man) Well, quite frankly, there's nothing else comes close, it's total bliss riding this girl
!.
(me)
Has she been with you for long ?.
(me)
Wow, is that all ?.
Seeing you ride, I would have thought you and your mare were life long
partners. Man, she just looks so "majestic", I bet you feel like a king riding
her ?.
(me)
I hope you don't mind me asking, but ... oh, never mind, it doesn't matter ...
(man) No, it's OK, don't be shy, just ask away ...
(me)
I don't want to be nosey, but I can't help wondering how much she cost ?.
I mean, well, she looks like a million dollars, really ...
(man) Well, lets' put it this way, I could have built a new house for less.
(me)
Hell ... I'm not surprised though, I bet she's worth every cent !.
(me)
Ahh maybe, but I'm sure there are times you wouldn't part with her for any amount of
cash, aren't there ?. I know that I'd do anything for a horse like her.
(man) Ha, you've got me there ... if push came to shove, I really don't think I'd let her
go for any sum. She's really part of the family now.
(me)
I knew it !, I could tell when I saw you riding her, it's as if you are "One".
I couldn't even see you giving her any aids, and the way you performed that dressage test
was absolutely beautiful ... picture perfect.
Can't you just see youself taking the grand prix cup with her ?.
(man) I'd like to ... a fair bit of work to do before we reach that level though.
(me)
So you can see it ?, I didn't doubt you would.
(me)
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
(man) Yep, I better get it on before she cools off too much, can't have her catching a
chill now.
(me)
I wasn't sure if that was her's or not ... I though it might have belonged to that shabby
looking horse in the next stall.
(me)
See my old mare in that stall over there ?.(I point to stall) In the royal blue cover ?.
Can you imagine how proud you'd feel ?, having your prize mount in the best looking
attire, standing head and shoulders above the rest.
(man) Yeah, it looks pretty good from here. You'd certainly be noticed.
(me)
I know my old mare's no champion, but I still feel like the proudest man on earth when
she's so smartly dressed, and you can't help but notice all the passers by admiring her
and her cover.
Can you see everyone looking at her ?.
(me)
Can you see yourself stealing the show in one of those covers ?.
I'm sure you'll agree it's the best looking horse cover you've ever laid eyes on.
(man) No, I can't disagree with that, it looks pretty stunning actually, can I take a closer
look ?.
(me)
We can do better than that.
She looks like a five foot to me and I've got one right here.
Let's try this on her now, and I'll help you fit it up correctly so she'll be in total
comfort.
(man) Don't go to any bother, we've got her covers right here.
(me)
Here, (as I place the cover on horse) can you check the front strap while I do the leg
straps and adjust them ?.
(man) No problem.
(me)
Here we go (as I adjust and check fitting), look at that !.
When you see how much she loves this cover, you won't want to take it off her.
Notice just how perfectly that fits her ?
As you check where the pressure and rubbing points are on standard covers, you'll notice
how superior this cover is.
I'm sure you can see how free these shoulders are.
(man) Hmm, that's pretty impressive, but her old covers don't rub on the shoulders
anyway.
(me)
Yes, you're right, I see her shoulders haven't been rubbed. But just check this out.
I invite you to put her saddle on and ride her ... with the new cover on !.
(me)
No joke. This cover is so well designed, you can even saddle up and ride in it, no rubs or
pressure points, guaranteed.
Notice the fit over her withers ?. Perfect, even, and no pressure points.
See how the saddle fits straight over the cover without a saddle blanket ? (as I place the
saddle over the cover)
(man) Amazing, I never would have thought it possible to put a saddle on over a cover.
(me)
Come on then, really, adjust that saddle and slip her bridle on.
(me)
Let me trot her up the race while you look from behind and check how free the leg
movement is.
(me)
You'll be surprised just how comefortable it is for both of you.
With your new cover, you can take a quick ride in any weather without any of the
normal hassles.
Just five minutes to thow on the saddle and slip on the bridle, and you're away ... it's that
easy !.
(man) Right, we're away then. (Man mounts horse and trots off down the race, turns
and canter's back).
(me)
Isn't that truly amazing ?, and I bet it wasn't all that wierd !.
(man) Incredible, what's wierd is knowing she has a cover on, but it actually feels great.
(me)
You like it then ?.
(man) I've never seen anything like it. How much are they ?.
(me)
Come on, let's take her tack off and leave her in her new cover.
Today at the show only, this cover is hers at only $337, and that's after taking the $112
show discount from the retail of $449.
(man) That could be a bit of a problem, I'm not holding any extra cash here.
(me)
No problem, come on down to my tent and we can do EFTPOS, put it on your visa, or
any other card you might prefer.
(man) O.K. it's a done deal then. Thanks you so much, I wish I'd known about these
covers before.

Jo Han’s Comments: The next model assignment of the week. This is perfect! Cliff, it
definitely sounds like you’ve actually used the script in real life before. : - )
By Jo Han Mok
#1 Bestselling Author of The E-Code
Contrary to it’s portrayal on TV and the movies, hypnotism has little to do with
brainwashing and neither is it a supernatural power. You will not be able to walk through
walls, but you will be able to get people to obey your commands.
Picture this: Your nephew takes out the trash because he wants to. The child in your
home volunteers to do the dishes.
While this can seem trivial, imagine the power when you apply this through the Internet
and reach an audience of millions, and compel them to buy your products because it
solves a problem they are facing.
Within the context of this forbidden persuasion lesson, you will understand and learn to
apply hypnotic techniques that you might already be practicing on an unconscious level,
and further refine it to be more effective.
Is Hypnotism an Art?
You may have observed people on a stage in a “Hypnosis Demonstration” bark like dogs
or remove their clothes. It might seem wacky and wild. Some find the experience scary
and even bordering on the occult.
Contrary to what you might believe, hypnotism is not a subjective, anything goes “wild”
theory. It is something that you can follow, especially if you understand the system and
apply it.
Although there are “subjective” elements involved, it is more a science than an art.
Everyone’s brain is like a computer, as we go about our daily business, we are faced with
choices. We have to decide what to wear, what to eat for lunch, whether we want to
watch the Late Show on TV.
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
We feed thoughts and feelings into our brain, and we make decisions based on the
“output” or the commands that we get.
The keys to unlocking the hypnotism center lies in our imagination and emotions.
We will go into these details shortly.
You can read hypnotism books and go through thousands of pages to get at this, and the
bottom line is that hypnotism succeeds when you put your audience into a trance and:
Hypnotism is an irresistible force, and if you’ve ever been watching a show on TV and
felt uncontrollably excited, or you’ve seen someone whom you haven’t seen in a long
time step off the airplane and you run towards them, you’ve experienced a form of
hypnotization.
That’s because you’ve seen the “visualized reality” on TV (maybe when an underdog
triumphed over their rivals), or you’ve been expecting to see your friend for weeks and
weeks and finally see them. You connect that reality with the feeling you create and you
take that uncontrollable action, whether it’s jumping and screaming, or smiling from ear-
to-ear and laughing.
Although you will be able to create a hypnotic trance as you get more experienced, newer
practitioners will want to keep the following in mind:
Intention:
How consistent is the action you want the person to take in line with their
personal beliefs.
Is it something they’d be predisposed to doing already?
Process:
Outcome:
As you recall from the previous lesson, the subconscious mind like an iceberg which
resides below the “waterline” of consciousness, can be very powerful in determining our
behavior.
The human mind is unable to tell the difference between something that is imagined, and
something that has happened in reality.
If you concentrate hard enough and recall a sad experience, you will find that your body
will go into a “sad” posture, you might even find tears dripping from your eyes. And you
will discover that physical sensations such as a sense of loss seem to come from within
your chest.
The longer you focus on this experience, the more intense the emotion will become.
As you continue to visualize how the scene might look, you will discover that the
emotion will become more intense too. The two critical components of how “deep” you
go into the trance depends on how long you spend focusing on the experience and how
vivid you make it.
Whether through a verbal, face-to-face hypnotic session or through written sales copy,
the same principles apply. The longer a visitor spends reading your sales copy, the more
likely they will buy. If your copy is engaging and they come back repeatedly to read it,
they will find themselves being more and more attracted to your product before they
finally buy it.
There are various ways to guide their imagination as you induct them through the trance.
Here are three approaches:
Your audience should identify with the king, or one of the characters in the story.
Creating Word Pictures
Of the five senses, the sense of sight is the most powerful in creating a picture.
You would want to use visual words like:
Picture this
Visualize
See
Mentally Observe
Dream about
Recall
View
See through your mind’s eye
Drift back to
Observe
And you can further enhance this experience with hearing/auditory words like “hear”,
“listen” and feeling/kinesthetic words like “sense”, “go back to”, “feeling”.
By involving all the aspect of the sense, you will create an all-encompassing
environment.
For example:
As you look back on the time when you were a young child,
you can picture how the favourite room in your house
looked like. And you can remember the color of the wall
and smell the familiar smells, maybe it was the aroma of
freshly baked bread, and as you sat on the floor, I want you
to imagine the texture of the floor below you. How it feels
on your fingers.
Perhaps some have been “brainwashed” by motivational gurus, but not every situation
has to be a “happy-happy” scenario. You can use the power of “negative” scenarios
(being broke, divorced, old) as a driver for people who like to resist authority or have a
rebellious streak in them.
There is no “right” or “wrong” outcome. The best outcome is one that fits into the IPO
(Intention-Process-Outcome) you mapped out at the start of the process.
By this stage you’d have engaged their minds with the picture and physical sensations of
the experience, by including the emotional component, you would create a complete
experience which involves their mind and feelings.
Agonized
Annoyed
Betrayed
Burdened
Pitful
Conflicted
Comfortable
Defeated
Happy
Eager
Enraged
Foolish
Frightened
Hopeful
Greedy
Lazy
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
The Others
Up to this point, we’ve talked only about your subjects thoughts and feelings.
But a large part of why we do what we do is because of the people around us.
Being part of a group helps us feel connected. Likewise, the need to conform gives you a
chance to relax because we can follow what others do, and we don’t have to make all the
decisions ourselves.
The other reason which has been handed down from our ancient past is that doing what
someone else has done (and is living) means that it’s safe to do. For that reason, we don’t
stick our hands on hot saucepans or electric sockets because we’ve been told not to do so.
To complete the hypnotic experience, we bring in the “others” which are significant
people in our lives because of the relationships we’ve established.
Grandparents
Parents
Best Friend
Spouse
Significant other
Enemy
Boss
Teacher
Children
Niece/Nephew
Again, emotions are neither “positive” nor “negative”, you can use them to shape your
communication.
You can layer your hypnotic commands with the following techniques:
Metaphors:
Metaphors are figures of speech which refer to something to which it is not literally
applicable in order to suggest a resemblance.
Metaphors attach to a concept or idea that is already in your mind, and it latches on what
you know and is very powerful.
Examples:
A mighty fortress is our God
Not giving in is equal to failure
Walk proud in the race of life
Examples:
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
Symbols need not be physical objects, they can be a song or a movie, or an experience.
Subtle Communication
The details in the experience you relate will carry meaning too. The fact that one of the
characters has well-polished shoes, a crisp suit and neatly combed hair has a different
meaning from a man in tattered clothes who smells like he hasn’t showered in weeks,
with leaves in his beard, will leave different emotions in your audience.
For example:
Just imagine the freedom of working from home in your
pajamas on your Internet Marketing projects. How
different it will be from the 9-to-5 cubicle existence in your
office.
Word Tone
The tone of your words has an impact on your subjects.
Saying “sex” and laughing has a different impact from saying “sex” in a low voice and
embedding a feeling of closeness into the word.
“There was no more joy in his existence now that Sally had left him” has a different
meaning from “He jumped for joy at the great news!”
As you bring your prospects into the trance state and guide them through the hypnosis,
pay attention to the following principles to ensure your success:
It may sound a little sadistic, but the more pain they experience while they are recalling
the experience, the more compelled they will be to do something about it.
If they have been holding back on investing in your product or service, and it’s causing
them pain or loss in their relationships or their financial well being, it is your
responsibility to help them realize that they need your product to have a better quality of
life.
This epitomizes the phrase “short term pain for long term gain”
We intuitively identify with people who are like us, and frequently see ourselves in their
shoes.
Using this model, and seeing the success portrayed after can be a powerful attractor.
Witness the weight loss “Before” and “After” photos which work on this principle.
Adapt this system to your specific product, because people usually trust and agree with
people who are like them
Again, people have an almost unlimited capacity for self-denial and blocking out reality.
If you can unlock the floodgates to let them fully experience the guilt that they have been
holding back all this time, it will be a powerful motivator.
We have seen people take immediate action because they feel compelled to do something
about their situation.
Picture this: your product is an instant “guilt release” mechanism for all the guilt they’ve
been holding back all these years.
Secrets Revealed
The human mind has a “curiosity killed the cat” gene implanted in it. Everyone has this
gene.
If you start to disclose a secret and suddenly pull back, it will have the effect of a magnet
in piquing the person’s curiosity and getting them motivated to find out more.
An example:
You know, for the longest time I had the biggest difficulty
losing weight and keeping it off. Until the other day, I
bumped into this strange man in the library, and he
whispered two things to me which he said would help
me, and then he just disappeared.
I’ve put those 2 simple techniques into action and I’ve lost
7lbs over the last 2 weeks. I’m really impressed with it,
especially since it’s different from all those yo-yo diets
and pills I’ve tried and haven’t worked out for me in the
past.
Put your prospect in the shoes of having already benefited from your product and help
them see the type of life they would be leading…if they invested in your product.
Make it a multi-sensory experience. What would they see, what would they hear, what
would they feel after they have bought and used your product?
Hypnotized…And being totally unaware
Did you know that you are subject to hundreds of hypnotic messages every day and you
are probably aware of less than one-tenth of them?
Look at the billboards on the freeway, listen to the ads on the radio, the ads that pop up
on your Internet browser. There are at least 10 things around you at any point in time
affecting you on a subconscious level, and you might only be aware of the ad on TV.
Maybe you saw a burger on TV and your mouth started salivating. Or you looked at the
ad in the paper for an upcoming movie and saw yourself as the hero in that epic.
If you haven’t been exposed to hypnotism, your brain is absorbing all these hypnotic
suggestions like a sponge, and leaving you vulnerable to calling 1-800 numbers to order
products you don’t need now.
Spend time scrutinizing the influences around you. As you look at them, ask yourself
these questions:
Process:
How are they doing what they want to achieve?
What are the tactics involved?
Is it successful?
Outcome:
Were they successful?
What was the turning point?
How could I do it better?
Through adapting techniques we see around us, we can become experts in the art of
hypnotic persuasion.
Hypnotic Selling Stories
Using stories in your persuasion process will be one of the most powerful tools in your
arsenal of persuasion weapons.
Stories sound like they are just entertainment, but because they have embedded meanings
behind them, and even more insidiously, embedded commands, people listening to the
stories will experience an overwhelming urges to take action, and they will not even be
aware where this motivation came from.
Fast forward to the part where the wolf breaks down the straw house, and eats the pig.
He does the same to the pig living in the stick house, gobbling him up.
When he gets to the brick house, he’s unable to open the door, tries to climb down the
chimney and lands in a pot of hot water and dies.
It’s a pretty violent story, and we might not realize the impact it has on our children,
especially when they turn violent on us!
Whether we realize it or not, these deeper meanings are being imprinted into our
consciousness and is one of the motivators used to persuade children to do well in school.
There is another (possibly bastardized) version of this story which involves the straw
house pig running into the stick house pig’s house after his house collapsed, and the two
pigs running to the brick house pig when the stick house collapses.
While this version is less violent (all 3 pigs survive), it does contain further lessons:
You don’t need to work all that hard because there is always a fallback (running
to another house)
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
As long as you have a strong mentor (brick house pig) at your back, you will have
a security blanket to protect against failure
Incorporating stories into your persuasion will require more effort, because stories are
more complex than straight copy or straight dialogue. Often the message you want to get
across, isn’t even in the story itself, that is what makes the story so potent.
If you execute it effectively, the message of the story will mysteriously appear in the
reader or listener’s mind and not knowing where it came from, they will assume it’s their
own thought and take action based on what they think and feel at that point in time.
Stories can take on many forms, and they are known by various names, such as:
Tales
Anedotes
Movies
Novels
Fiction
Non-fiction
Biographies/Autobiographies
Jokes
Similes
Movies
Documentaries
History
News updates
Nursery Rhymes
And so on
I picked up the phone to call the police, but the line had
gone dead. I woke my wife and told her to remain calm,
before I crept out to the hallway and sat at the top of
the stairs, holding my baseball bat. My heart was
thumping.
See how stories can raise emotions and carry your message?
Characters
Situation
Plot and Development
Conclusion
You don’t need to have all the details in place before you start the story, but you must
have an idea how the story will develop.
For inspiration, you can read business biographies, movies, children’s stories. The best
plots are those adapted from real life.
Some examples:
Bald Man grows back hair with ancient Chinese formula
Miracle Dog saves family of four from drowning
Scientist finally discover cure for cancer
Introduction of characters and situation
You want to introduce the characters and situation, and goals. Include enough detail for
the prospect to continue reading. Include details on the problem or situation
For Example:
Joe was a frustrated business executive. He had been in the
position for the past 5 years and although he worked hard
and got pay raises regularly, he felt he could be doing
much better than he was now…
Joe is off on his second trip this month to Switzerland for his
skiing holiday. If a overworked, frustrated business
executive can achieve this success in less than a year, what
about you? Take up the same no-risk guarantee and order

You, as a proud owner of our "KeyWords that Bring You Riches" have been
selected to gain immediate access to the most powerful information to
hit your eyes this year.
If you've ever wondered how you can gain the financial freedom,
lifestyle, and control you truly desire in life, then You need to read
every word in this letter.
You've received this important letter today, to draw you attention to
our brand new lineup of "Lightning Fast Super Profit" marketing tools
and information, so You Too can enjoy the lifestyle you desire by
making that crucial, yet simple decision.
How would it feel to show your friends and family how you've learned to
quickly and easily crank out online profits at lightning speed ?.
You see, what I want to show you is much more than just another bunch
of second rate scripts accompanied by a plethora of success stories
from marketers, telling you "what they did" to make their "Online
Millions".
You're about to see a complete "How To ..." (not just what to ...)
take you by the hand and walk you through, step by step from A - Z"
System, for creating Simple Profit Pulling websites.
I'm inviting you to take this brand new system for a no obligation
test drive, so you can prove the incredible power of this system for
yourself at absolutely Zero Risk !.
Let me tell you a story about a friend of mine, Theo, who desperately
tried for nearly two whole years to pull his first dollar online before
he nearly gave up.
I bet you know that feeling just oh too well ... and don't try to lie
about it !. I reckon we all know that feeling.
Sure, you know ? some people are just plain "doing it all wrong"
because they really don't have a clue.
Sadly, often they just don't know any better and chug along until ...
usually they eventually give up.
You see unfortunately, for many of those people who are "doing it all
wrong", they believe they're doing it right and "it just ain't working
for them".
You know it's amazing the numbers of different places, and different
ways people get stuck when trying to create their "Online Profit
Center".
+ write sales copy that sucks. (or copy someone else's copy that
sucks)
+ fail to test their ads, or anything else for that matter. ('cos
they don't know how)
See, I was talking to Theo, telling him about just One of my successful
sites, when suddenly he launched into a huge "rant" at me about what a
lot of BS and hot air all this internet marketing stuff was.
After Theo finished venting his frustrations at me, I invited him over
to have a look at exactly how I'm able to rake in obscene amounts of
cash, while hardly lifting a finger to do it.
Picture this ... he arrived a 7:10 pm, we sat down at the computer with
a good old cuppa at 7:20 pm.
7:30 pm, a whole ten minutes, and Theo's ranting at me again, almost
screaming at me because he's been trying so hard, yet failing so
miserably to achieve the huge successes that I'm now showing him are
real.
You don't have to think very hard to imagine Theo's frustration ... can
you see him pulling out the last of his hair from around his ever
growing bald patch !.
If I had a photo, I'd put it right here for you !.
Now ... what happened next literally changed Theo's life, forever !.
Over the next few days I sat with my friend Theo, and as we worked
through his portfolio, we found some amazing stuff. Theo was literally
sitting upon goldmines, but just hadn't managed to strike his pick into
the veins of gold ... YET !.
Within hours ... Theo could see exactly that ... Results.
As I led Theo through right from the beginning, we developed the exact
same "take you by the hand and walk you through, step by step from A -
Z" System that I'm offering you now.
I don't need to tell you "how disgusted Theo was", at all the time and
money he'd wasted buying and trying hype filled (but sadly flat) ebooks
and courses that simply didn't deliver.
On the other side of the coin, once we finished putting the final
touches on my new system, we went back to check and compile the
statistics from Theo's new found "Profit Pulling Websites".
How easy it was to crank out winner after winner in record time.
How anyone could do the same, as long as they have my new system
!.
How easy it is, "Just like anything", he said, "Easy If you Know
How ?"

how ?."

Jo Han’s Comments: This assignment is good as a whole. Clearly you’ve mastered the
use of hypnotic verbiage. The only bone I’d have to pick is the ‘content’, as the
connection between the ‘discount’ and the sweepstakes does not seem too congruent.
Other than subject matter, well done.
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
his is very well done assignment. It could do with more ‘word pictures’ to make it more
powerful.
My product is a hedge trading fund (called APEX) that generates a fixed and predictable
20% per month on your capital. I have deliberately tried to pick a harder target market –
wealthy millionaires who are looking for a safe AND hyper-profitable investment that
will pay consistently for years to come.
How does it feel like to invest in the Apex hedge trading fund and have the security of
the world’s biggest Investment Trading Firm literally guarantee an astounding 20%
interest per month year after year after year?
Do you think this is a pipe dream, and something that only exists in fantasy land? Have I
gone crazy or out of my mind in even making such a statement? The less you try to
fathom this, the more you will understand.
As you are investing in the Apex fund, you will find that all your financial worries will
literally melt away and vanish. No longer do you have to worry about your investment
funds vacillating in tandem with the swings of the stock market. You will also never have
to stay glued to a computer screen or phone to monitor your investments. You can now
deal with the demands of your surely very important businesses and affairs without
having to resort to gluing yourself to the computer screen. Wealthy people like you lead
complex multi-faceted lives that are eventful and exciting, and the last thing you need is
to baby sit your investments day in and day out.
You have been lied to by the investment industry and its so-called experts!
Don’t believe me? Industry statistics have shown that over 70% of wealthy investors who
hand over their money to traditional investment advisors end up doing worse than the
Dow Jones index! In other words, you could have easily invested in a Dow Jones Index
Fund available to the masses, and actually realized greater gains than entrusting your
wealth to some exclusive (and expensive!) investment “expert” who professes to know
the market like the back of his hand. Why on earth would anyone wealthy like you place
significant sums with these clowns, and wonder if they are doing a good job with your
money or not?
There is no investment product out there that compares with Apex for several simple
reasons. I will not bore you and take up your obviously valuable time with mumbo jumbo
and industry buzzwords in the hopes of bedazzling and bamboozling you. I am going to
break it down for you simply and clearly so that you will have no doubt whatsoever about
the superiority of Apex.
You have obviously worked long and hard to get where you are today. You surely know
the value of something special when you see it. The benefits of Apex are crystal clear and
there is absolutely nothing that can compete with it!

What would it be like when you see the looks on the faces
of your neighbours as you pull into your driveway in a top
of the range car of your choice – a car that you had paid

deep throb of the engine and feel the spray in your face

the one that you had been dreaming about for years the one
that you thought that you would never be able to own.

that take away 90% of the drudge work. Systems that allow
them to focus on the areas that make them even more money.

J o Han’s Comments: Dave, you got all the verbiage down. But the ‘content’ once again
is not too congruent. You have a very powerful ‘start’ that shoots for the ‘trance’ but then
the ‘content’ and the ‘sales pitch’ is all over the place after that.
Picture the scene. You and your wife have spent a wonderful evening together and
are taking relaxing stroll home as a light summer breeze calmly laps your face as the
sun sets behind you, but then you are suddenly ambushed by a pack of youths.
Before you can cross the road to safety, your path is blocked and the snarling leader
slaps you across the face whilst his friends laugh. Humiliated and petrified, you stand
frozen as the laughter turns to growling menace and you are savagely attacked.
You are knocked senseless as your blood spills out into the street, the screams of
your loved one fills the air. You hear the coins from your pockets fall to them floor
and scatter like broken glass. No help arrives.
Sadly, this trend is snowballing up and down the country and is only getting worse.
The odds of this happening are spiralling upwards as copy cat beatings take place by
‘happy slapping’ youths who even take sick videos of attacks and post them online.
Everyday it seems there are more and more reports in the papers about violent
attack by feral youths. I hope this never happens to you like it did to me.
In fact I can guarantee that once you have this read letter that this will never
happen to you.
But to reach that summit where you can calmly walk down even the most dangerous
streets is a painful climb. Consider this letter your painful climb.
Once you have read every word you will have no dount about what to do to
protect yourself and your family from any attack or threat. In fact you will be almost
laughing at any would be criminal attacker.
Panicked, I didn’t know what to do. Worse still, my children began to cry as my wife
clutched my shirt obviously terrified. As I tried to move away, that’s when it
happened.
I was pounced on, kicked around like a football, as my captors laughed, my face
contorted with rage, pain and humiliation. As I screamed for my children to run, I
saw my wife pinned down, tears streaming down her face as she was repeatedly
slapped. I screamed for help but none arrived. A few minutes later, our ordeal was
over.
I will spare you the full details of the following year as I came to terms with what
happened but suffice to say, next to death, a man reaches his lowest point when his
masculinity is stripped away in such a degrading way. I hope you never have to go
through the same heartache I did.
I went to pieces. I couldn’t leave the house for 6 months, my fear had grown to such
dramatic levels. My mind kept wandering back to that fateful night and I began to
suffer from panic attacks and the mental torture I went through coursed through
my body like poison every single day.
Drink then entered my life as I desperately tried to block out the visions of my
tormentors kicking me around like a rag doll and slapping my wife as she lay
helpless. You could say I reached rock bottom.
Imagine crying yourself to sleep all because you froze up when confronted by an
angry mob baying for your blood simply because you didn’t know what to int
heat of the moment.
Clearly you wish to avoid the same nightmarish scenario that I had to go through
and if you take decisive action today, you will ensure you are fully protected
against any violent confrontation that is thrown at you.
Everyday, virtually every second, I agonized over that fateful moment. Was
there something I could have done? Should I have fought back?
Eventually, my wife left me. To be honest, I wasn’t exactly fun to live with. Even the
kids became wary around me as I wandered around in a drunken stupor day after
day.
Then one day, I received a phone call out of the blue which changed my life
forever. It was from my old school friend Ben who I had not heard from in years.
Needless to say, he was shocked when he discovered the state of my life. I was
always a happy go lucky kind of guy but I was a total mess at this point.
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
I finally broke down, as I told my gut wrenching tale, how I felt I had let down my
family, the helplessness of the attack.
“Craig”, he said, “pop over to my house, I have something to show you which will
change your life. In fact I guarantee that after you leave, you will never worry about
been attacked again after what I have shown you”. And with that, he put the phone
down.
I was skeptical at first. I had tried everything before to try and go back to ‘normal’
but nothing had worked. But at the same time I was incredibly excited too.
Racing out of the house (a rare excursion), I hopped into the car, almost dropping
my keys. My heart was thumping as something told me this was moment I had been
waiting for.
Finally I reached Ben’s house. I nervously rapped the door and Ben ushered me into
his home.
I perched myself on the edge of his sofa waiting anxiously to discover what Ben had
in store.
“Right Craig”, he said, “I want you to come at me and try and hit me and wrestle me
to the floor”. At the time I had no idea why, but as I said I was desperate, for
something to work.
In fact at first I thought he was joking but a glint in his eyes said he was deadly
serious. I felt compelled to act as instructed and imagined I was facing one of
my tormentors from my nightmares and let fly!
Next thing I know, I am laying helpless on the floor, my right arm twisted behind my
back and my face contorted with pain. I was completely paralyzed. Funny thing was,
Ben was quite weedy looking, skinny, with childish features and stood only 5’6” tall!
I can’t tell you here exactly what I said to him, needless to say I was not happy at
the time!
Finally though, something shifted in my head. I understood what Ben had done and
begged him to show me how to stop any attack and in any situation.
We spent the next 2 hours, as Ben (who told me after he had dropped me to the
floor that he was a certified self defence expert) showed me every single self
defence technique that he knew.
I left the housing buzzing, realising I could now walk the streets again without fear. I
drove calmly home through the rush hour traffic. I felt at peace, and miraculously,
my confidence returned, my self esteem sky rocketed and I felt no fear again
about any situation and still don’t to this day. I felt instantly transformed.
It was an amazing transformation. I went home and poured all the alcohol down the
drain, crying tears of liberation. I felt free from my the shackles which had bound me
“Yeah right, I have heard all this before” she said skeptically, and decided not come
home. She sensed though that this time something was different. (We are now back
together ;-)
Pacing down the street, I came across a young woman, she must have only in her
early 20’s, surrounded by a young gang who were snatching her bag. Next thing I
know they are wrestling her to the floor, her face filled with horror and screaming for
help. To my fury, I realized she was pregnant too.
This was my moment. I ran, lungs pumping, and heart racing. It took only 2
techniques that Ben had shown me to halt the attackers. It was an amazing feeling
to see them fleeing down the street! I even became something of a hero to the
woman and ended up in the local newspaper!
After I helped the young woman to her feet, it suddenly dawned on me.
What if hadn’t been there? That poor woman would have no doubt been in the same
situation as me.
Obviously many people are out there at the mercy of these thugs with no protection
and probably many others just like me who had been humiliated and left shattered
by these devastating attacks.
I had to do something. I simply couldn’t stand by and watch helpless people’s lives
been destroyed like this, but I couldn’t possibly reach out to people who needed
protection the most.
I quickly phoned up Ben and arranged for it to happen. He spent the following day
going through every single self defence technique he knew whilst been filmed live on
camera and created the remarkable “Self defence protection kit” DVD.
Obviously you don’t want to experience the anguish and terror I went through that
year. But you can’t protect yourself and your family if you don’t have the the insider
knowledge that can save you.
As an owner of the Self Defence Protection Kit you will never fear any attack and
will be prepared for any violent confrontation. Your confidence will be catapulted and
you may even be regarded as hero yourself!
But you can’t be expected to protect yourself if don't invest in your future. All you
have to do is simply fill in the attached Self Defence Protection Form attached,
and you will never have to worry about any attack and will stand tall and proud,
knowing you can handle any situation.
And the sooner you act, the less chance you have of becoming a victim to one of
these shocking attacks. There are not many sets left either as word begins to spread
about this insider DVD so you must act today.
And even if you decide for whatever reason that you cannot implement these insider
secrets to self defence then you can send it back within 30 days and you will receive
a full refund.
Don’t be like me, frozen in the headlights, letting your life fall apart. Don’t delay any
longer as your very future and families future depends on it.
Whatever decision you make today, I wish you the best of luck.
Imagine the rush of becoming a new pop singing sensation by pulling back the curtain on the
It’s such a great feeling to see the shock and jealous looks you now get from your
acquaintances back home all because you followed a simple set of instructions out of a
manual.
Maybe you’ve dreamed about a life where everyone treats you like royalty because you’re a
celebrity – and having the money to get and do the things you always wanted to do - like buy
the latest fashions and travel the world. It’s really as simple as using the information that’s
This life can now be yours – if only you’ll take advantage of the secrets that can unlock your
dream future.
Jo Han’s Comments: Amy, you got the verbiage down. What I think can be improved is
your ability to ‘tell more’ in order to ‘sell more’.
Take for example this sentence:
It’s such a great feeling to see the shock and jealous looks you now get from your
acquaintances back home all because you followed a simple set of instructions out of a
manual.
You’re not making enough of a ‘connection’ to a manual. It’s as though the ‘manual’ just
popped out of nowhere. The person listening or reading will go “Huh, what manual?”
Get my drift?

In these cases, you have to break out the heavy artillery and get ready to break down their
resistance.
Resistance (also known as objections) is encountered when the other person has a
different point of view from you.
Before we go into objections, let’s look at opinions, which form the basis of objections.
For example, if you grew in a family where the political preference was toward a
republican style of government, you will have a higher chance of selecting a republican
political stance, especially if you admired the character and behavior of other family
members who had this attitude.
On the contrary, if a family member smokes heavily and suffers related health problems,
you might be less inclined to take up smoking, even though you witness this behavior in
your own home.
A large part of how our values, beliefs and opinions are shaped are determined by our
background. Where we came from and the environment we were exposed too.
In recent years, the unruly and promiscuous behavior of teen actors and musicians has led
to many parents complaining that their children were more receptive to the influences of
TV, rather than their own family members.
This has led to family and religious groups lobbying for the government to exercise a
heavier hand on mass media channels.
Dealing with Objections and Changing Opinions
By the time most individuals turn 21, their personal, values and attitudes tend to be quite
“fixed”, meaning they are quite constant throughout the rest of their lives, unless a major
event takes place.
Major events can include: failed relationships, death in the family, divorce, as well as
positive life events such as childbirth, adoption, reconciliation and reunification with
family members.
Research has shown that highly educated individuals tend to have more flexibility in
being able to change their opinions.
When two opposing opinions are brought against each other, the majority point of view is
considered the “opinion”, while the weaker point of view is considered the “objection”.
An equal society?
Although some would like to think that everyone in a society is an individual, the truth is
that people are usually more similar than they are different.
For example:
The major political orientations are Democrats, Republicans, and minority parties
like Green environmental political parties
The most popular ice-cream flavors are chocolate, strawberry and vanilla, while
the other flavors represent a minority
And it’s usually the more “important” questions that raise the most violent objections.
The terrible three are:
Sex
Politics
Religion
If you get objections, it is a reflection that you are doing your job, you are prodding
prospects or family members to think about your message and do something about it.
It’s dealing with these objections which will reap you the richest rewards.
The “Impossible” Objection
You may believe that some objections cannot be overcome.
Being fearful of objections, could stunt your personal growth, whether it’s in your career,
your social or family life.
In extreme cases, individuals are unable to progress further in life, or get “stuck” at a
certain place because they are unable to overcome an objection.
For example:
After the failure of a long term relationship, a distraught individual might be tempted to
declare that “All men (or all women) are scum” and fail to progress further in their social
life.
In ancient times, nearly everyone believed the world was flat, and sailing too far on the
ocean, one might hit the edge and “fall over”.
Only after Greek scientists and philosophers proposed the idea of a spherical Earth did
the people’s beliefs change to the point that they heaved a sign of relief that they would
not fall off the Earth’s edge.
Unlike physical objects or one’s weight or height, opinions can be changed instantly.
The person lacks the information to make a choice, so they slam on the brakes and
procrastinate on making a decision.
It’s healthy to see that objections are just one of the elements in a conversation. It is
neither “good” or “bad”, or helpful or discouraging.
Rather than focus on the “purpose” of the objection (which may be a fruitless exercise),
instead focus on how you might deal and overcome the resistance you encounter.
The Two Categories of Objections
Objections can be divided into 2 categories:
Fact-based
Opinion-based
For example:
The Sun burns brightly
We need oxygen to live
I burned the newspapers
These statements are accepted as fact, and you’ll not have much leeway to negotiate.
(Unless you are performing stage magic and make a torn dollar bill, appear whole).
Opinion-based objections on the other hand are based on a person’s view of a situation,
although it can have some basis in fact, it opens up the possibilities of forbidden
persuasion.
As children growing up, we encountered lots of objections, and these objections shape a
great deal of our personality. Objections can influence major life decisions, and are
responsible for making and breaking billion dollar business deals.
Ducking Objections
A common tactic among some those in sales and marketing is to tackle objections head
on.
Upon hearing the objection, the person might say something like:
The price is not expensive
There is nothing wrong with the product
The pasta dish looks perfectly fine to me
Ignoring the objection will not make it away. In fact, it will probably make your prospect
upset, impatient or angry.
Evading the objection ranks among the worst ways to deal with the objection.
If you plan to be in business long, or build relationships, this is probably one of the worst
ways to go about doing it.
Dealing with Objections Head-On
Whether you’re marketing a product or service, or marketing yourself to a potential
business partner or aiming to establish a new relationship with someone new, you need to
take care of the objection basics.
As you’ve learned from the previous lesson, you’d ideally use the product yourself.
Familiarizing yourself with the products functions, and common objections are part of the
preparation.
This preparation should be done before you start marketing the product.
If you are unsure about any information, you should check with a product expert.
A good approach is to ensure you have at least 30% more information than what you
expect to present or talk about.
It’s also a given that people tend to have the same questions.
A new customer patronizing a restaurant for the first time will be likely to ask:
What are the specialties?
How a particular dish is prepared?
What is the soup of the day/ dessert of the day?
Are there any promotions or incentives being offered?
What credit cards are accepted?
As a wait staff at this establishment, you should have this information at your fingertips,
or ask the cook.
I’ve been to more restaurants than I care to count where my simple questions send the
staff scurrying to the kitchen several times.
At best, you’ll look like it’s your first day on the job, as worst, you’ll seem like a
complete idiot.
You can use the evergreen “Let me check on that for you, anything else?” as a lifesaver,
but you should use it sparingly.
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
This approach can be one of the most effective ways of dealing with objections because
you’re answering the objection (a sign of asking for information) with the appropriate
information for the prospect to decide.
Here are some tips you can use to tip the persuasion scales in your favor:
Act ignorant:
Ignorance is a state of not having information to make the appropriate information.
This is not to be confused with acting stupid, which involves a “Huh?” and staring
dumbly at the person.
You can act ignorant by acting as if you don’t understand the basis for the person’s
opinion.
“You say my price is expensive and out of this world. Explain what you mean”
This will get the person talking and trying to explain why the dress is expensive.
She could have difficulty justifying why the dress is expensive and her objection will
naturally die out.
On the other hand, with some probing from you, she might even talking herself into
believing that the dress really isn’t that expensive after all.
Using this technique, you will be able to uncover the true intent behind the objection.
There could be a secondary reason (perhaps she just doesn’t want to buy the dress now)
that lurks behind her false objection.
Get them to come clean:
If you start to hear what sounds like a false objection, you can go on the offensive.
Many people are hesitant and possibly afraid of confrontations and might be
uncomfortable with this approach.
But consider this for a moment, would you prefer to deal with the issue there and then?
Or would you prefer to dance around the issue and not settle it?
Leaving too many unsettled objections in the air will eventually load to frustration
building up and will leave you feeling unhappy with the person. Sometimes it’s just good
to ‘air the dirty laundry’.
“Hi, I can tell that what you’re saying may not be the whole picture, can you tell me what
you’re really focusing on?”
“I hear the words you are saying, and somehow I have difficulty understanding it from
your point of view. Is there something you want to tell me?”
When prospects are consciously trying to hide something from you, their natural instinct
will cause them to feel uneasy as they’re saying it. If you can tell that they’ve not giving
you the whole picture, you can insert emotions like guilt, duty or honesty into your
response:
“That’s not really the key reason is it? After all, your company spends much more on
marketing than what my product costs. When you say it’s too pricey, what do you really
mean?”
“I hear what you’re saying, and it doesn’t sound like the whole story. Based on your
earlier interest, and sudden decision to back out, I know that something has changed. Can
you tell me what it is?
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
Example 1:
“You know, it’s strange how your objection reminds me of the same concern Mr Jones
from the Garment District has about my Lint Vaporizer. I suggested he test out the
product for himself to see how powerful it really is.
It’s been six years since he first took delivery of the product and he has five units running
in his factory.”
Example 2:
“The Training Director at Paper Consolidated also wondered if a new company like ours
could really deliver quality team building training, as you’re mentioning now.
We made the same offer as we’re doing now and he’s retained 95% of his staff over the
last 3 years. He’s been very happy with us and has also engaged us to conduct similar
training in Atlanta, New York and Baltimore.”
This is one of the most powerful objection crushing techniques in your arsenal.
Example 1:
“The training package is too expensive? It’s expensive because we have recruited
qualified trainers who have created one of the most comprehensive programs available
anywhere.
A cheap training package will fail to achieve your goals and it will put you in a worst
shape, compared to now”
Example 2:
“You don’t have time to take the course? It will help you manage your time better,
CREATING more time in your life to do the things you enjoy.
Procrastinating in investing in the time management package today means you will
benefit less when you eventually do take it up”
The Bleak Future
If a prospect doesn’t take up your offer now, it will come back to haunt them, either
because of lost business opportunity, a failure to reach the next level in their
development, or just because they would waste a lot of time and resources otherwise.
“What would you do to cope with the fact that your lead generation efforts are not giving
much new customers? How would that affect your profit and ability to continue?”
“If you choose not to invest in the product today, I can see that six months down the road,
you’ll be sitting beside your phone in a room like this one, just waiting for it to ring. It
may ring once or twice that day.
Based on your company’s current marketing system, it looks like meeting your sales
objectives is going to be nearly impossible. I can’t imagine the prospect of having 15-30
possible sales a month in an organization with 50 people, can you?”
Joining Forces
Your goal is to frame her objection as a goal you need to achieve in order to close the
sale.
For example:
“Your product is too expensive!”
“So our goal is to make it less expensive, so you will buy the product”
You make the objection a common goal, so that both of you can solve it and close the
sale.
Example 2:
“You can’t deliver it on March 3rd.”
“So if I can arrange delivery on March 3rd, you will buy a unit today?”
Once you have agreement on the objection, confirm the details and close the sale.
If the prospect doesn’t agree to your proposal, it may be a false objection and you should
find out what their true objection is.
Covert Persuasion Tactics
Preempting Objections
An effective way to deal with objections is to raise them first and address them. This will
show that you have thought about issues they might have, and demonstrates that you have
their interest at heart.
The first stage involves raising the objection and the second stage involves providing a
credible and rational answer to the question:
Example 1:
“Some might say that investing 10% of your budget on a new research program will not
yield results.
And you will realize that at the rate that technology is developing in the computer
industry, choosing not to invest in the future will mean we will get left in the past”
Example 2:
“As you’re sitting there listening to my presentation, the first thought that might come to
mind is: Can we turn around the company in 2 years.
That’s a reasonable thought and I would be concerned about that too. This is why we
have recruited some of the best mind available in our industry to help us through this
difficult time. We can’t guarantee that we will pull through, but we have the best possible
team to aid us in our efforts.”
Fragmenting Objections
You can diffuse the power of objections by giving examples of situations where the
objections prove to be an advantage.
Key to this skill is the power of lateral thinking to consider “In what other time or
situation, would this objection be an advantage?”
Example 1:
“I know what you might be thinking, that 150 horsepower is way too powerful for a
vacuum cleaner. And when it comes to spring cleaning and doing a thorough job of
removing every trace of dirt from your lovely home before the relatives visit, you will
appreciate the fact that it is 5 times as powerful as any other product in the market.”
Example 2:
“I know the idea of a round-the-world trip seems like it will take a lot of time, and cost a
lot. Your friends might even be asking if you’ve gone off the deep end.
But when you consider that we have one life to live and most would kill for an
opportunity to see the world and visit places that they’ve only read about, then you’ll see
that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity few will ever have the fortune to consider!”
The most important skill you will have is to remain calm, reflect on the objection and
understand what the person might be saying.
As you deal with more objections, you will see patterns emerge and there are only so
many different “types” of objections.
A positive attitude will give you an aura of confidence, and people are most affected by
non-verbal aspects of communication.
As you hear and process the objection, you can observe how the other person is reacting
and behave appropriately.
If they look angry, you can express concern, nod your head slowly and vocalize a “I can
see why you’re upset”.
Take note, this is different from agreeing with them, you are merely acknowledging their
emotions.
Show of objection crushing strength
Our minds are like powerful computers and process all the thoughts and emotions we
feed into them.
If you start to feel fearful, your body will react accordingly and you may feel your heart
racing, your palms sweating and you may even feel like you’re quivering or shaking.
When you start from this mindset, you will speak from a position of authority and your

important and exciting breakthroughs in male sexual health. --------------------------------------------
This is the 'Robert Collier' Opener.
News of this breakthrough is spreading like wildfire among men in every age group.
"With your permission..." is a very
powerful phrase to use.
In fact, this breakthrough is so radical, it's astonished the doctors and sex experts who
discovered it!
Ever heard of this Chinese Medicinal Classic called "Ben Cao Gang Mu" written by the famed
'granddaddy of Traditional Chinese Medicine", Li Shi Zhen?
Well, in it, Uncle Li reveals what he considers to be the herb of the highest order used by only
Emperors and Noblemen as clearly stated in Imperial Records.
Apparently ants are a superior tonic with such excellent curative powers that it's various beneficial
effects include: increased strength, energy, stamina; strengthens the nervous system, digestive
functions, detoxification functions and muscular system; boosts mental and physical energy.
Of course, not every ant qualify. The specific ant mentioned is the Polyrachis Vicinia.
"Ginseng may be the King of Herbs, but ANT is the Herb of Kings!"
Don't be too quick to dismiss it just because you only believe in Western Science though.
You don't need me to tell you this, but the Chinese have identified stuff like "Meridian
johanmok points" and
you know acupuncture has only been proven to be 'real' recently. (Though the 2009-03-17
Chinese have10:57:23
been doing it for thousands of years) --------------------------------------------
"You don't need me to tell you this..." is
Hey, they invented gunpowder and got ripped off by Marco Polo who 'invented'aSpaghetti,
great 'softener.
but that
it is a totally different story.
The point is, the Chinese are far more 'advanced' than you think. And as far as I'm concerned,
Western science sometimes makes a mockery of itself in validating what the Chinese have
already known for YEARS.

Antsy Fact #3: Ants are extremely rich in nutrients, including significant amounts
of vitamins B1, B2, B12, D and E.
Antsy Fact #4: Ant contains more than 42% protein and provide 8 essential
amino acids. It contains enzymes and other active substances. The ATP in ants
can provide energy directly to the human body.
Antsy Fact #5: Ant can increase the amount of DNA and RNA inside of human
cells. This is believed to slow down aging and to aid in the regeneration, and even
rejuvenation of tissue.
Antsy Fact #6: Ants are rich in more than 20 trace elements such as magnesium,
calcium, phosphorus, iron, selenium, and especially zinc.

Virility, Stamina, And A Lava-hot Love Life Is Right Within Your Grasp!
Can Hot Rod really change the way you think, perform and feel about sex?
It's hard not to be skeptical when you discover the potential benefits of Hot Rod:
Hot Rod kicks your libido into overdrive within minutes! (No form of
external stimulation. You don't even have to think 'dirty' for it to work. )
Hot Rod energizes you so that you can go on like a raging bull
without the need for taking a break.
Hot Rode pumps so much fresh 'juice' into your erections, desire and
performance, you'll be wondering where that extra 'inch' came from.
Hot Rod gives you solid steel erections, and doesn't let up. You'll
perform like a stud, in spite of yourself.
Hot Rod desensitizes your penis so that any form of premature ejaculation
becomes a thing of the past. You'll be able to give your partner hours of
endless, non-stop pleasure.
Hot Rod keeps you hard as a rock, even after multiple ejaculations!

(Go ahead and erase the word 'limp' from your dictionary)
Hot Rod stays in your body for up to 4 days. If you need to have sex
repeatedly (and you'll probably want to), you will be able to do so
with absolute ease!
Hot Rod gives you all the OOMPH without any nasty side effects.
Hot Rod eliminates 'performance anxiety' in men!
You Have The Amazing Opportunity To Enjoy What Other Men Can Only
Dream About!
Isn't it crystal clear why Hot Rod is causing a sensation among men (of all ages) everywhere?
Obviously you already know about the 'mighty' ant and it's incredible aphrodisiac
properties.
But what you may not know is that the 'ant tonics' used by the ancient Chinese
imperial emperors, were used to increase their Yang Jing, or 'Chi'.
You see, the Chinese believe that ejaculation of the male seed for purposes other
than having children is a wasteful loss of an extremely precious treasure.
The energy loss over long periods of time weakens the physical health of the male.
You may or may not buy this 'theory', but it may make sense to you when you
realize that if ALL of your sperm that you ejaculated was fertilized, then you could
have produced the equivalent of a COUNTRY'S population.
Which is why we added Deer Velvet as a 2ND ingredient to double the 'chi'
tonifying effects of the Polyrachis ant, so that you can have as much sex as you
want without feeling 'zapped'.
All species of deer (even moose) will have antlers sprouting, maturing and
hardening within 4 to 5 months every year.
And these impressive male structures owe their very existence to a very special
bioactive substance called velvet, a fuzzy external membrane that channels blood
and nutrients to the growing antler,
Deer Velvet also protects the fragile, pre-hardened antler from harm.
As antlers are how deers maintain their 'pecking order', this velvet is chock full of
hormones that stimulate both growth and testosterone production
Dr. Peter Yoon of Seoul, South Korea, use velvet deer antler to treat impotence in
men.
It has been noted that deer velvet appears to strengthen the body as it is balancing
the hormones needed for peak sexual function. Deer velvet has been believed to
strengthen the 'Chi' or life force energy.
The velvet from the deer antlers is harvested at peak mating season, when the
testosterone levels in the blood that circulates throughout the cartilage of the
antler are at it's highest.
Lots of documented research on the benefits of deer velvet antler has also been
done in China, Russia, Korea and Japan.
From these reports, here are some excerpts which relate directly to its sexual
benefits:
Recover sexual functioning and experience a return of potency and libido. Strong
kidney function, strengthen the heart, increase blood circulation, strengthen the
mind and the central nervous system and to have a positive mood. Directly

Tribulus Terrestris, also called "puncture vine" is a plant long used around the
world for the treatment of various ailments. It is widely acknowledged to improve
sexual function in humans.
One rodent study found the herb to be helpful as a sex booster. Sexual behavior
and intracavernous pressure (ICP) were studied in both normal and castrated rats
to further understand the role of tribulus as an aphrodisiac. ICP refers to blood
flow into the corpus cavernosa of the penis.
Adult rats were divided into groups of 8 each that included distilled water treated
(normal and castrated), testosterone treated (normal and castrated) and Tribulus
treated (castrated).
Tribulus Terrestris works by relaxing smooth muscles and increasing blood flow
into the corpus cavernosa. The relaxant effect observed is probably due to the
increase in the release of nitric oxide from the endothelium and nerve endings,
which helps to increase testosterone production and enhance erection.
Ubi Jaga is a creeper plant that grown wild in the tropical forest in South East
Asia. It improves blood circulation. It is traditionally used as one of herbal
medicine to strengthen male energy, as a general tonic, and to increase body
metabolism.
As you're reading this, I think you do realize that Hot Rod really does contain an
incredible blend that helps intensify sexual desire, increase sensitivity, strengthen
erections, and enable men of all ages to enjoy more frequent, and longer lasting
sex.
Plus, there are also the effects of mood stabilization, promotion of healthy blood
pressure levels, and energy level support; all of which contribute in a major way to
great performance between the sheets
So, unless you've been living in some cave, you'd know that the efficacy of these
ancient remedies have been so impressive they’ve now gotten the attention of
mainstream medical science.

What Men In Other Countries Already know That Makes Their Wives Thank
Them In The Morning!
The reason why Hot Rod works so well is that conventional erectile dysfunction (ED) drugs treat
impotency by merely redirecting blood flow.
Hot Rod, on the other hand, goes one step further by rectifying the problem at it's core level -
your libido. Hence, this is tantamount to killing two birds with one stone.
This is crucial as scientific research reveals that many erectile problems of men have erectile
problems are not necessarily due to blood flow issues, but rather an inherent lack of desire.
Between Jan to July 2006, we placed online ads offering free samples to users of other brands of

This is strategically placed to oblitrerate
1) Speed of reaction the 'objection' about 'other brands'
2) Duration of effectiveness.
Before Taking Hot Rod: 66% had little confidence in getting or sustaining an
erection.
After Taking Hot Rod: 95% had confidence that they could get and sustain
an erection.
2) When you had an erection, how often was it hard enough for penetration?
Before Taking Hot Rod: 60% said sometimes it was hard enough for
penetration.
After Taking Hot Rod: Half said most times they could get and sustain an
erection and the other half said they could ALWAYS get and sustain an
erection.
Before Taking Hot Rod: Half said "extremely difficult" and the other half said
"very difficult" to maintain an erection.
After Taking Hot Rod: 90% said it was NOT difficult to maintain their
erection until completion.
Before Taking Hot Rod: 60% said they were "rarely satisfied with

FACT: We have a list on our hands of many herbal sexual enhancers that have been banned by the ministry
of health of several countries due to the presence of presence of controlled chemicals and harmful steroids.
And YET, these very same brands are being sold freely over the internet... to unsuspecting
customers who think that they are buying a 100% herbal-based product!
Well, like it or not, the laws governing herbal products in many countries, including the US, are
still lax.
For instance, the US FDA does NOT require a manufacturer to send it's product for thorough
testing before it can be sold openly to the public.
Instead, they leave it entirely to the manufacturer to ensure that the product is safe for public
consumption!
So why jeopardize your health - and possibly even your life - with untested products when you
johanmok
can have 100% confidence in the fact that Hot Rod can produce the results you desire, with
2009-03-17 11:01:13
complete safety?
--------------------------------------------
FEAR is used here as a motivator.
However, I'd like to caveat that 'negative
"No Headaches And Nausea!"
motivation is twice as powerful when
preceded by 'positive' motivation.
"Prior to becoming an Hot Rod fan, I used to take a very
popular Herbal enhancer that got busted recently by the
FDA. But I would say in in all fairness, it worked like a
charm, and you could have sex like 9 times in a row with
it. The only problem was, it'd give you a fucking headache
and sometimes you'll feel nauseated. It just doesn't feel
good despite the 'kick' it provides you in between the
sheets.
With Hot Rod though, I can go at it for 12 times and NOT
have to suffer a headache or feel nauseated. In fact, with
Hot Rod, I feel pretty darn good! Hot Rod gets my two
thumbs up and send me another pack will ya?"
Hot Rod is manufactured in a GMP factory and has gone through rigorous testing at two
independent labs to ensure that it is safe for consumption.
Test results confirm that Hot Rod does not contain Yohimbe, Sildenafil, Tadalafil, Vardenafil and
Yohimbe.
Which is why...
Hot Rod Comes Without Any Of The Nasty Side Effects 'Other' Performance
Enhancers Bring To The Table!
Statistically, as many as 90% of our customers said that they did not experience any unpleasant
side effects - like headache, extreme palpitation, sweating and dizziness - that are so commonly
associated with other sexual enhancers.
The remaining 10% did feel some minor facial flushing and warmness in the body, all of which are
tolerable reactions. johanmok

These are caused by the blood-circulation enhancing herbs in Hot Rod, and do--------------------------------------------

as any form of threat to your well-being in any way. Admitting a flaw in your product makes
it much more believable.
You'll be assured to know, Hot Rod...
Unlike 95% of the sexual enhancers in the market, Hot Rod does not contain Yohimbe, a proven
herbal aphrodisiac that works well but... can cause very unpleasant side effects like palpitation,
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
While Yohimbe is not illegal in the US, it is banned in many countries throughout the world. That
in itself speaks volume about the safety of the herb, especially when you intend to use it for a
long period of time.

No matter how 'nice' a person your partner is, she will be sorely disappointed when
In thisyou are I add what I call the

unable to perform. 'hidden benefit'. Usually it's something that
will not normally 'occur' to you.
Sure, she might say 'nice things' like "It's okay...I understand" blah blah when what she really
means is, "You're such a loser!"
And that's totally ok. I've not had medical problems, and before Hot Rod was conceived, I had a
few occasions when I was unable to 'rise to the occasion'.
But what happens if she misinterprets your inability to perform and apparent lack of desire as not

What kind of damper will that put on YOUR relationship? I did a TOTM here. TOTM stands for

b) You're not 'pestering' your friends to
go to church.
Will she look for someone else who can fulfill her innermost deepest desires and You're saving them from
totally satisfy her at the core of her being? hell.
I think you'll realize why spending a few measly dollars on a 100% safe, natural herbal
performance enhancer can be the best investment you'll make in both yourself and your loved
one.
Hot Rod can cause dramatic and wonderful changes in your life in literally every level.
You'll surprise yourself when you discover why you don't have to take Hot Rod for weeks or
months to feel its invigorating and revitalizing effects.
And the most amazing thing is that once the herbs are in your body, they have the innate ability to
remain there for up to 4 days!
And during this time, you will be like a loaded gun, 'armed and ready' for any sexual encounters
that might come your way... even if you are currently impotent!
You'll be totally empowered with the supreme confidence and rest assured that any performance
you have in bed will be nothing short of explosive and stunning.
In fact, when you try Hot Rod yourself, not only can you potentially inspire your partner, you might
even end up inspiring yourself!
Can I Take You Aside For A Minute For Some Straight Blunt Talk?

Once again, I admit a 'flaw'. This
product MAY not work for you.
And let's get real. This is webpage. I don't really know you from a bar of soap. I don't know the

P.S. #1: If you're sick of not being able to 'get it up' and you've tried everything on the market and
suffered nothing but nasty side effects, Hot Rod could be the final answer.

P.S. #3: Here are a few more unsolicited testimonials about how Hot Rod has changed the life of
our customers...(All testimonials are verifiable and on file.)

everything over the last few years and nothing has worked.
ME: Jim was a young guy just like you, who just 12 months ago came to me, looking
just like a skinny little rake.
The first time I met him he almost bit my head off like an angry shark he was that
frustrated by his lack of muscle gains! His face was red, his arms were flapping like a
pelican's wings and his eyes were bulging like a madman.
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
He said “Craig, I have tried everything, multiple sets, super slow sets, supplements.
I have listened to and read everything by all the 'guru's' and nothing has
happened”.
His daily life before he met me was one of embarrassment, shame and humiliation
because of his skinny body. He was ridiculed almost daily he was that thin. It was
torture for Jim.
In fact he was that skeptical about my claims he even accused me of 'been on the
juice' and it was only a urine sample proved to him I was the real deal.
Well, just 12 months later, Jim is absolutely huge, with massive slabs of rock hard
muscle all over his body. In fact, we rarely call him Jim anymore, he is now simply
known as 'Arnie'.
Imagine this happening to you like it has for Jim. Picture yourself with huge pecs
... arms like tree trunks and abs showing off an 8 pack never mind a six pack.
Jim knows how this feels. He gets an incredible amount of respect from other
men and he is almost batting away women with a tennis racket he gets that many
offers these days. Once you invest in the Muscle Mania program, you will even
get to meet Jim in our closed door forum.
CUSTOMER: I guess I see why this could be different and would work, but I am not
sure I have the time to focus on all of this.
ME: I understand your concern but I don't think that's the key reason that you are
delaying your investment. You have said you have tried everything in the past so
obviously you have spent a lot of time trying to build muscle in the past. Is there
something else you are focusing on instead?
ME: Yes it is more expensive than our competitors because of the incredible support
you get from our world class group of muscle growth specialists who will hold your
hand during your muscle building journey. We have the most comprehensive
program available in the country and once you have made your investment you
will realize that you have made a wise choice.
Clearly you have used inferior products which have held you back and wasted far too
long and stole more of your time and money than you can count. Obviously if you
leave here today without investing, I can almost guarantee you will spend tons of
dollars on cheap imitations which won't even give you 1 pound of muscle.
Customer is looking a little sheepish still and scratching his head a little
nervously
CUSTOMER: Well, this is kinda embarrassing, but I don't have a DVD player so I
won't be able to even watch the DVD's so I won't be able follow the program.
ME: Hey, that's no problem, I have a spare DVD player I was going to put up on E-
Bay, but when you invest today, and I will let you have it for free.
CUSTOMER: Whoa! That's pretty great thanks Craig, but I am not 100% sure about
this...
ME: Well, if you don't invest today I can see that in 12 months time you are going to
be stuck in the same position you are in now, depressed because of your lack of
muscle gains, still unhappy every single day because you don't have the body you
deserve and you will feel that burning pain of frustration in the pit of your stomach,
knowing that you have passed the opportunity of a lifetime.
Obviously I can only offer so many places on my program and places are filling up
fast, in fact there a just 3 places left so if you want to discover the sheer thrill of
watching your muscles bulge up like a balloon, you must act now.

While you continue to develop your formidable set of persuasion skills, you might come
across individuals at work or in your community that have a high “Persuasion Quotient”.
We’ll give you a set of techniques to effectively analyze, adapt and copy these set of
skills, so you can benefit from their experience. In the field of psychology, this is called
“modeling”.
Imagine a middle-aged man, emulating a giggly teenage girl, or a demure, quiet lady
shouting and huffing and puffing and demanding to get immediate service.
Modeling is adaptive: applied correctly, it gives you the ability to analyze anyone, male
or female, young or old, even someone from a different culture or nationality and make
their techniques your own.
I certainly don’t want you to be in a conflicted state as you read this, so let me give you
an “alternative world view”.
When you were a baby, not knowing any language, or what things meant, people pointed
at objects and gave them a name “apple” or “dog”, and you mimicked what they said.
You pointed at the dog, and said “dog” and someone clapped and said “Good boy!” or
“good girl!”.
As an adult, when you want to learn something, maybe replacing the sump filter in your
pool, or a new stitch pattern for your quilting, you might go to the Internet, or buy a book,
or ask someone.
So you’re learning by copying or emulating an expert in the field. That’s the nature of
how learning takes place. Whether you’re modeling someone living who write the book a
few years ago, or lived 500 years ago in England, the process is the same.
Am I a good modeler?
Some will inevitably ask if becoming a mirror image or a spitting image of your model is
the ideal to strive for.
Emphatically no!
As in all parts of the forbidden persuasion techniques you have learned till now, you need
to have the outcome in mind before you engage in your campaign.
Achieving the outcome is just one step in the forbidden persuasion process.
Adaptation refers to the ability to transfer the skills from one situation to another
situation. You might admire your plumber’s ability to close sales, and if you successfully
adapt his approach, you might be able to apply the same set of skills in another context or
industry like in real estate or internet marketing.
The key factors to identify when you are adapting a persuasion process are:
What is the person’s intention?
What is the person’s attitude?
How does their intention translate into action?
How does the subject react to their action?
How does the person react to objections that the subject might pose?
Modeling Resources
When you start modeling, the first instinct might be to model your boss or your neighbor
or maybe even your significant other. While this is better than the alternative (having no
one to model), you can certainly do better.
Look for role models you aspire towards, they can be living or deceased, the key
condition is that you must have some access to them. By access I am referring to a book,
a sound recording or a video recording of them.
You can also adopt multiple “models”. For example, you might have one model for sales,
one model for relationships, one for sports.
Your first step is to access his speech transcripts, and audio recordings of his speeches.
Do your research to find the situations, the contexts, and with the benefit of history, see
how the speech might have affected the course of history.
John F. Kennedy
Ich bin ein Berliner ("I am a 'Berliner'")
I am proud to come to this city as the guest of your distinguished Mayor, who has
symbolized throughout the world the fighting spirit of West Berlin. And I am proud --
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
And I am proud to visit the Federal Republic with your distinguished Chancellor who
for so many years has committed Germany to democracy and freedom and progress,
and to come here in the company of my fellow American, General Clay, who -- who
has been in this city during its great moments of crisis and will come again if ever
needed.
Two thousand years ago -- Two thousand years ago, the proudest boast was "civis
Romanus sum." Today, in the world of freedom, the proudest boast is "Ich bin ein
Berliner."
There are many people in the world who really don't understand, or say they don't,
what is the great issue between the free world and the Communist world.
There are some who say -- There are some who say that communism is the wave of
the future.
And there are some who say, in Europe and elsewhere, we can work with the
Communists.
And there are even a few who say that it is true that communism is an evil system,
but it permits us to make economic progress.
As you can see from the above example, speech patterns for leadership will vary
differently from everyday speech.
Speaking in everyday speech when attempting to inspire and motivate your audience will
obviously not have the same effect.
Likewise, you would not want to speak in a “leadership tone” in everyday conversations,
unless you wanted to be accused of trying to act “presidential”.
For speeches and video broadcasts, you can visit the White House website at
http://whitehouse.gov.
Besides emulating how the characters act in a romance movie, you can also take a look at
romantic novels and plays.
For example, Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet contains sections such as:
ROMEO
O, she doth teach the torches to burn
bright! It seems she hangs upon the cheek of
night Like a rich jewel in an Ethiope's ear;
Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear!
So shows a snowy dove trooping with
crows, As yonder lady o'er her fellows
shows.
The measure done, I'll watch her place of stand,
And, touching hers, make blessed my rude
hand. Did my heart love till now? forswear it,
sight!
For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night.
While the language is dated, the concepts and language patterns can be adopted to the
modern context.
That’s an example of how phrases might be adapted and used effectively. You will also
notice that the vocal tone and vocal speed will tend to be lower and slower in romantic
situations compared to everyday speech. Incorporating these and other observations into
your delivery will enhance your effectiveness.
Speeches by media and sports personalities, as well as politicians are usually written by
professional script writers, so by analyzing and modeling these speech structures, you
will have the world’s best script writers at your beck and call.
For video resources, you can find documentaries as well as non-fiction movies to model
this from. Movies from the 60s to 80s tend to contain more dialogue to model off of.
While movies from the 90s onwards tend to be more action oriented.
You can also search for and find movie clips from online video hosting sites like
YouTube and Google Video.
What would happen if you used “word pictures” in your communication, phrases like:
I am struck by the strength of the character of the people who live here in the
Plains -- people who refuse to be -- who refuse to have their spirit affected by this
storm
Over our six days in the United States, we have much enjoyed the chance to dwell
on the history of the relationship between our two countries, as well as celebrating
its present strength and vitality. I would like to thank everyone for the warmth and
kindness extended to us.
The friendship between the British and American people is one of the oldest and
most enduring in history. This friendship has been built on the common ideal of
freedom, and forged by our shared sacrifices in freedom's defense.
Troops from our two countries are serving side by side to bring the hope of liberty
to regions that have not known it. Together we're supporting young democracies
that are taking their first steps on the path to free and peaceful societies.
This morning the world witnessed yet another advance for freedom and peace --
the people of Northern Ireland took control of their future when Catholics and
Protestants came together to form a new government that offers the prospect of
peace and reconciliation after years of violence and division. In Belfast today,
we're seeing once again how democracy and freedom can help heal a wounded
world.
The excerpts were taken from the speeches of England’s Queen Elizabeth II and
President George Bush at Whitehouse.gov
After examining the content of the speech, you will also want to take note of the:
Speech patterns
Speaking speed
And you will notice that the slower you speak and in a deeper voice, the more authority is
associated with that way of speaking.
In contrast, speaking quickly, and in a high pitch tends to carry with it qualities of being
young, dynamic, and perhaps even naïve.
Accents can come into play to establish rapport with your audience.
During former president Bill Clinton’s election campaign, it was reported that when he
toured the Southern United States, he spoke with a Southern drawl, or accent.
The bulk of communication which accounts for the other 93% is achieved through:
Tonality: 38% (how you say the words)
Physiology: 55% (your body movement when you speak those words)
Although words may not seem that important because they only represent 7% of
communication, they are one of the most important elements in the modeling process.
In the next section, we will go into detail on how you can select and construct your word
sequence to powerful effect.
Advanced Modeling Strategies: Representational Systems
To be an expert in forbidden persuasion, you will need to understand a key concept which
will unlocking your understanding. That is:
Our minds process information constantly depending on the situation. We may not react
the same way if someone says the phrase “You are fired!” to us.
If you are in a job which you enjoy and pays you handsomely, you will be very sad when
you hear those words.
On the other hand, if you work for an oppressive boss, put in long hours, receive little pay
and are constantly being insulted, the sound of those words might be pure music to your
ears!
The meaning of our words depends on many other factors than just the words themselves.
Like fingerprints, two people will not communicate in exactly the same way. We have
specific cues in the way we communicate that is our personal “communication
fingerprint”.
Most people will never be able to identify or recognize these communication fingerprints,
much less use them. For the forbidden persuasion minority who have access to these
skills, you will have an unfair advantage.
We perceive reality according to how we ‘see’ the word. Just like some might be left-
handed and others might be right-handed, so too will we use each of our five senses in a
specific manner.
By analyzing the sequence, you might notice that someone might say:
“If you can see what I’m saying, you will get a grip on the situation and sound the alarm
now”
Analyzing the above sentence you will notice the following representational systems:
See: visual
Grip: kinesthetic
Sound the alarm: auditory
If you wanted to establish rapport with him, you would communicate following the VKA
sequence.
“I can picture your concern, and I will handle the situation so things are clean as a bell’s
whistle”
Correctly executed your audience will not be aware of what you have done, especially if
you have performed it subtly.
But on a subconscious level, their mind will recognize that you used the same language
sequence and feel affinity towards you.
Note: As we have previously mentioned, no two individuals will have the same
representational system communication pattern (which we call a strategy).
“I hear that many people are rushing out to grab the bargains at the great sale” (A-K-K)
“You see my children are yelling for attention again and crying out for help” (V-A-A)
So you can expect to see strategies consisting of various combinations such as V-V-V, V-
A-K, K-K-V, V-K-A.
Take note that the strategies I have presented are to build rapport with your audience.
If on the other hand you want to break rapport with someone, you can choose to
deliberately mismatch what they’re saying.
If they say “I don’t see what you’re saying at all. It sounds like the price is sky high” (V-
A-V).
You can mismatch them by saying “Sounds like you are not in touch with the issues
here. Our pricing is very sound.” (A-K-A).
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
In this interview, Erickson talks to Monde, 32 years old, married and mother of 3
children. Her major concern was her insecurity about herself as a person, wife and
mother.
Here are a few patterns in the following sequence you need to be aware of:
Presupposition: an assumption about the world whose truth is taken for granted.
Examples of presuppositions include:
Mind Reading: refers to situations when one person knows another well enough to be
able to suggest what the other is thinking.
Examples include:
At this moment, your mind will be racing as you think of the possibilities of this
product.
I know what you are going through now because I have been through it myself.
You realize this is probably one of the best offers you would ever see in your life.
Sentence fragment: These can be useful. Because each phrase contains a thought. The
fragment can change the pace. For your subject. As they focus on each word. They
become more. And more receptive. To your suggestions.
Embedded command: These generally have a context beyond what they seem to be
saying. It’s a phrase or sentence which contains a hidden command. Some examples:
I feel thirsty, it would be good to have a glass of water [embedded: get me a glass
of water]
I wonder what your name is [embedded: what is your name?]
My mother used to say that the best way to recover from a flu is to stay in bed all
day [embedded: go rest in bed]
Well, Monde, this time, I’d like to have Presupposition: …this time…take your

Dear John,
Remember when you were a kid. A "dreamer" was put down as someone who johanmok
would never
2009-03-17 11:04:19
amount to anything -- destined to be a "non-achiever" for life. --------------------------------------------
Introduction using a 'instant trance'
What a myth! word.
Let me tell you about some "dreamers" who became super achievers in direct marketing. They
succeeded beyond their wildest dreams.
There's the thrilling story of L. L. Bean in Maine. For years they ran a successful mail order
business...catering to outdoorsmen.
But Leon Gorman dreamed of new horizons...a new world out there of men and women who
never fished or hunted -- dressed the way outdoors people dress. A pipe dream? Hardly. Leon
Gorman turned dream to reality. Sales - plateaued at the $50 million level - boomed past the $100
million level in a few short years.
What about the legendary "kitchen table" people? Len Carlson, out in California, is a part of the
legend.
Len and his wife Gloria shared a dream. They dreamed they could put together a catalog of hard-
to-find gadgets that would appeal to the masses. Thus Sunset House was born.
Fifteen years and a customer base of 6.5 million names later, the press announced Sunset House
had been acquired by a major corporation for a price reported to be in the millions.
The most remarkable dream story on the agency side is that of Lester Wunderman. Les was an
account person with the Max Sackheim agency. He dreamed of having his own agency.
But an agency that would apply sophisticated direct response techniques to all media -- including
a "new" medium called television. Today his firm - Wunderman, Ricotta & Kline - has billings in
excess of $100 million, with offices in New York and 12 foreign countries.
As you read of these dreams-come-true I hope you are recalling your own. Thejohanmok
dreams you have
2009-03-17 11:04:45
had which have helped you to get to where you are today.
--------------------------------------------
Future pacing 'As you read', and
But of all the dreams-come-true which I have witnessed over the embedded
years there is one
command 'You are recalling
which supersedes all others. A dream-come-true which has touched allyour
our lives,
own.' dream
a
which will live on beyond our lifetimes.
The year was 1965. Lewis Kleid, a leading list broker in his day, was a close friend of Edward N.
Mayer, Jr., known around the world as "Mr. Direct Mail."
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
Lew made a proposition to Ed. He said, "Ed - if you will devote time to teaching the rudiments of
direct marketing to college kids, I'll provide the seed money to make it happen."
Thus, with the simplicity that was a trademark of Ed Mayer, the Lewis Kleid Institute was
launched. Today, almost 17 years later, The Direct Mail/Marketing Educational Foundation, a
non-profit organization which sponsors Kleid Institutes, continues in the Ed Mayer image.
Over the past 17 years over 1,000 bright college students have taken the 5-day intensive
course, sponsored by the Foundation...all expenses paid. It is estimated that over 50% of
these students have entered into a direct marketing career.
As one of the privileged few who has had the honor of lecturing each new group of candidates
over many years -- I only wish you could witness, as I have, the excitement thatjohanmok
comes to each as
2009-03-17 11:05:12
they are introduced to the wonders of direct marketing disciplines.
--------------------------------------------
A rather 'unusual' and rarely used
"I learned more in five days than in my four years as a marketing major," is a somewhat
'weasel'. typical 'I only wish you
statement from one of these exuberant students. could...'
But let me give you just a few quotes from hundreds in file.
"I learned so very much -- the week just set my spark for direct marketing into a big roaring fire!"
"The Institute has greatly increased my awareness and understanding of direct marketing, and
furthered my career interest."
Tim Harrison
University of North Carolina
"If one of your objectives was to stimulate young, ambitious people to enter your field, you
succeeded with me."
Paula Miante
College Of William and Mary
I guess from all of this one would have to conclude our dream has truly come true. Well - not
exactly.
None of us ever dreamed that direct marketing would have the explosive growth we have all
experienced. (As an aside - when I wrote my first book I trumpeted that total sales of goods and
services via the direct marketing method had reached the staggering figure of $300 million. The
estimated figure for 1981 is $120 billion!)
So now we realize that if our true dream is to be realized - growing our own at johanmok
the college level to
2009-03-17
people our future growth - we are going to have to raise our sights beyond the far 11:05:28
horizon.
--------------------------------------------
Future pacing again. "So now we
realize..."
I'm now going to tell you about what some regard to be an emerging "miracle," which is in the
process of happening as I pen this letter.
At a Board of Directors meeting a few months ago in the offices of The Direct Mail/Marketing
Educational Foundation, Richard L. Montesi, President, made a startling proposal. A proposal
which he stated would make our ultimate dream come true.
The ultimate dream, as he expressed it, is to establish a Chair for a Direct Marketing Center in
three major universities: one in the Middle West; one in the East; and one in the West.
The full-scale curriculums will be structured to earn a degree in Direct Marketing for each
graduate, carrying with them a stature similar to that enjoyed by a graduate from the Wharton
School of Business or Harvard Business School.
"An exciting idea," we said. "But how are we going to fund these centers?" "From a capital fund
of $1.2 million," Dick said. "$1.2 million. Good God!" was the reaction.
Well then the miracle started happening. Andy Andrews, one of the directors, said - "Why don't
we go around the table right now and see how much commitment we can get over the next three
years from the small group of directors at this table?"
Would you believe we raised $120,000.00 - 10% of our goal within five minutes!
When we left that day a few of us agreed to write some letters and make some phone calls. And
what happened as a result surpasses anything in my experience.
Remember those "dreamers" I talked about earlier? Well let me tell you what happened with
some of them.
Remember Leon Gorman of L. L. Bean? He's committed $15,000 over three years. And Len
Carlson - another $15,000. And Les Wunderman - $15,000. They're putting their money where
their dreams are.
The list goes on. "Dusty" Loo of Looart Press - a major commitment. John Flieder of Allstate
Insurance - "Count us in." Kiplinger Washington Editors. The Kleid Company. Jim Kobs of Kobs
& Brady - "Absolutely!" Publishers Clearing House. Grolier. Colonial Penn. Rodale Press.
Spiegel. American Express.
John Yeck of Yeck Brothers Group - "You can count on us." Eddie Bauer. Rapp & Collins.
Ogilvy & Mather. Alan Drey. The DR Group. Hanover House. And on and on.
To this moment, these people and some others we have contacted bring total
commitments to $725,000. So we have reached 60% of our goal!
This is exciting in itself, but equally exciting is the fact that we have two formal proposals from
two major universities detailing how a Chair would be established for Direct Marketing. And the
cost.
One proposal is from UMKC - University of Missouri, where Martin Baier of Old American has
taught Direct Marketing classes for a number of years. The other proposal is from New York
University. Both universities are ready when we are.
Now we come to you to ask you to share in this dream of dreams. There is a pledge card inside of
the enclosed envelope. The amount suggested is just that. A suggestion. You are the best judge of
what your company should pledge against the future.
I have asked for and have gotten approval to have your response come back to me personally. I'd
like to hear from you even if there is some unforseen circumstance under which you cannot make
a pledge.
We must decide very soon upon the first university to establish a Direct Marketing Center.
Therefore I will appreciate it if you will reply within the next 10 days. Thank you so very much.
Sincerely,
Bob Stone
johanmok
P.S. It is my fondest dream that you and I will be there to witness the commencement
2009-03-17 11:06:03
exercises of the first graduating class with a degree in Direct Marketing.

Trance word 'witness'
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
Practical Assignment:
Your practical assignment for this training session is to model Erickson’s ‘session’ with
Nick and Monde to create your own fictional ‘session’.
Go through the lessons thoroughly, and write your 300 word page paragraph.
By Jo Han Mok
#1 Bestselling Author of The E-Code
Assignment #5: by Ted Chan
Monde, this time, take a step back and take your time going into a trance.
I don’t want you too easily into a trance soon.
Begin to relax your whole body as your mind loosens up.
Now go deeply into a trance, so your unconscious can find your secret combination in the
vast stores of your.
And while you’re in the trance, I’d like you to hear the waves crashing over and over
again, calming your inner being. You feel the gentle breeze against your face and soft
warm glow of the sun. Getting warmer and you unbutton your top button.
Now, while you go further and further into your trance, it’s as if you’re zooming through
the trees of your life in the forest.
And perhaps something that you hadn’t thought about for years percolates up to the top
of your consciousness.
And I’d think it be most interesting, if you would find some childhood picture memory
that you haven’t thought of for years – such as the time you discovered how to say your
first words and your entire world felt different.
The world suddenly seems a lot brighter, and takes on a spectacular hue, as you say your
first syllables for the very first time.
Forbidden Persuasion: The Black Book Of Hypnotic Mind Control
So you discovered a whole new world where you interact and use very powerful words
and received all the attention.
I would like you to single out some one thing that you could talk to me about, that you
could share.
Jo Han’s Comments: There are some missing words from this assignment. It is well
done, and what I feel can be improved, is that even though your objective is to inject
ambiguity, you want to make it somewhat easy to understand as well. There’s a very thin
line between being ambiguous and not being able to be understood. Avoid big words like
‘percolate’ and try to use more ‘childlike’ language.
This sequence takes place between Dr. John House, PhD, and teenager Bebe Williams,
who has been traumatized by her mother’s 3 divorces, mistreatment by her stepfathers,
and extreme promiscuity. John has invited Bebe’s boyfriend Matt to the session to be a
catalyst in her recovery process.
Bebe, this time let’s do it slightly differently from before. It’s okay to change things
around. Change is good.
At this time, your mind may be whirling around and you may be thinking about the
approach I am going to take.
Don’t.
Just relax.
At this point Bebe starts to squirm and is visibly uncomfortable, a look of alarm
surfacing in her eyes and expression.
Not so fast, Bebe.
Keep in your mind’s eye the comforting presence of Matt as you are going deeper into
this very unique and comforting trance.
You will go deep so that you can recall and experience everything.
So heavy.
And relaxed.
But just a tad warm, just a notch above what your ideal temperature would be.
Closed.
That’s it. (Bebe’s eyes are completely shut now, and her face looks tranquil and calm.)
Let your mind’s eye run through your life’s experiences, all of them.
And find the pleasant ones you would like to share with Matt that make you feel so loved
and appreciated. That make you proud to be a loving and wonderful human being, at
peace with yourself.
You are so peaceful there that nothing, absolutely nothing, can upset or disturb the
tranquility.
Go back.
Way back……
As far as needed.
Find it.
The one experience that makes you feel the most loved and appreciated, where you are
completely at one with the world and yourself. You do not want for anything and
everything is in order, so you have nothing to do at all except to be.
Even looking back at this through the vagaries of time and space, you still feel the
peacefulness and stillness of the moment.
No conflict.
No tension.
Just stillness….
It would be very interesting if you could share this most peaceful moment with Matt and
relive it with him.
Make him see it and feel it like he was next to you, experiencing it.
Jo Han’s Comments: Same issue as Ted in the previous assignment. You want to avoid
big words, and make it simple to understand. Words like “vagaries” may sound good, but
are rarely understood for by educated people.
Monde has been suffering from a fear of open spaces for a considerable period of time
and Nick is her next door neighbour who is getting to be very keen on Monde and would
like to be able to get to know her better and start taking her out on dates.
Well Monde, this time, I would like for you to recall how relaxed you felt after our last
session together
And before we get too deeply into the trance lets have a little talk, as in the trance I want
you to think of something that is important to you
And while Nick is present, I would like you share in Monde’s journey as she goes into
her trance.
And you will learn how you can assist Monde in her day to day life
Now slip deeply into that warm comfortable place so that you’re unconscious can access
and cope with the depth of memories you have
And now that you are feeling comfortable and relaxed I want you to feel the warmth of
the sun on your body feel the breeze on your skin just enough to take the edge off the
heat, cool but not to cool.
Now while you slip deeper and deeper into the trance picture yourself just hovering
above the earth it is as if you are totally weightless and looking down on yourself an
observer - observing yourself.
And now I want you to recall something some distant memory perhaps the first time you
went out to play in the park with your parents do you remember how good it felt to play
on the swings and to run around in the park.
Suddenly you have this immense sense of freedom – wide open spaces for you to run and
play your legs never seem to get tired as you are revelling in this newfound sense of
freedom
Everything is so different and exciting I want you to pick out just one memory from that
period one that you want to share, one that you would feel comfortable talking to total
strangers about.
One that brings that warm feeling of pleasing memories one that makes you feel like you
are a small child again enjoying this newfound experience.
