"Thank you for a wonderful inspiring teaching...The students are still talking about your very practical and systematic approach to making positive life changes. I know the students heard because they are correcting each other as they seek to keep their spoken words consistent with their spoken goals. ...It is evident to me that the principals you teach and write about are exhibited in the way you live your life and what you project to the world. I look forward to a long friendship."

"I just wanted you to know that your CD does really raise ones consciousness as to what types of messages are repeated and the emotions they purvey. In Particular, the "I'm tired message". If you say, feel and act it, you are! I also wasn't aware of the number of times the message is quietly repeated and this low level of negative energy that may accompany the repetition of the message. (It's like a chant of sadness that kind of get's bigger."

Michael J. Russ's Powerful Self-Talk CD describes the essential ingredients for understanding and unleashing the universal power of positive, intentional, and supportive self-talk. Russ identifies unsupportive, negative self-talk that reduces confidence, dampens self-esteem, and defeats personal performances. He provides dynamic visual and auditory images and specific examples of purposeful, responsible, and pro-active self-talk behavior. Russ prescribes a six-step model that focuses on increased awareness of self-defeating thoughts and linkages to overt behavior.
