by Michael Corthell Unlocking Your Potential through Self-Induced Change In our journey to achieve personal growth and accomplish our goals, the power of the mind is a formidable ally. When we consciously decide to harness this power, we open doors to countless possibilities. One effective technique that taps into this potential is autosuggestion, a method akin to the placebo effect.
