		<description>Hi Michael,

If you have used the script for thirty to sixty days and have no positive response to the audio I recommend that you make some changes to your self talk regimen. I would also suggest that you consider consulting a self talk professional as you effectively work to talk about yourself and to yourself. I can offer my services to you if you believe I can be helpful to you. You can contact me through email gene@talktoyourself.com or call 469)-437-0828. I offer a free initial consultation and a money back guarantee if you believe the advice I give and the scripts I may write for you do not further you to achieve your goals.

		<description>Hi, Gene. I&#039;ve used the &quot;stop smoking&quot; script from the book, recording it three times with &quot;I&quot; statements and one time with &quot;you&quot; statements. I&#039;ve played the recording at least three times a day; for the past two weeks I&#039;ve played it while I slept as well. Yet I&#039;m coming on thirty days with no signs of slowing down on the smoking.  Any advice you can offer? Perhaps a more powerful script than the one in Shad&#039;s book? I&#039;m very keen to see if this technique works.  Thanks for any help/insight.</description>

		<description>Hi Frank,

Health and physical fitness Self Talk audios are good, but for your goal of removing the desire to drink, I believe some other scripts might work better. A modified variation of the stop smoking script could work. I would need to know more about your current self talk and some history before I would feel competent to make more specific recommendations.

When I do a consultation I spend some time on the phone talking to you about yourself, what you desire to achieve and then make recommendations for your consideration. I can help you create a custom script for you that I believe would be useful in achieving your objective. If you wish I can also create the audio for you which can be delivered as an MP3 download or on a CD. 

My fees vary with the services a client desires. I offer a money back satisfaction guarantee with all of my work. I would be happy to talk to you more about your interest in self talk whether you desire my professional services or do not wish to use those services.

My email address is gene@talktoyourself.com and if you send an email please put your name and more information about self talk in the subject line so I will not accidentally delete the message as spam. If you would prefer to communicate by phone we can arrange a time that is convenient and talk. My number is 469-437-0828. If you get my voice mail just leave a message and a good time to return your call. I have unlimited calling and will return your call if you leave a message with your number. There is no fee for the call.

I hope this has been helpful to you. I hope to be of help to you in the future as a self talk user helping another self talk user or in my role as a self talk professional.

I hope you will continue to comment on the blog and speak of your journey as you work to achieve your goals.

		<description>Thanks Gene,

Good advice about transfering the tapes, and playing them while sleeping. I didn&#039;t think that would work.

When I used the tapes in the 80&#039;s, I mostly listened to health and fitness exclusively in hopes that it would help curb my beer drinking, but it didn&#039;t happen. I don&#039;t drink a whole lot now, but the thoughts are still there. Any thoughts on that? Also, whats involved in consoltation? Thanks,

		<description>Hi Frank,

I would recommend you transfer the tapes to CD and let them play repeatedly as you sleep. I have experienced good results with clients using this method.

Another option is to have a consultation with a practitioner such as myself and have a custom audio produced to assist you in achieving your goals.

Let me know if I may be of further service to you.

		<description>Hi,

I have a large set of self talk tapes and cards I bought from s.h. in the 80&#039;s., and was wondering if I could use them still, or should I transfer them to disks? I didn&#039;t really get great results from them  
after listening one hour per day for a year, but I wasn&#039;t using the cards with them. Only playing them and expecting my life to change. Thanks,

		<description>I think the choice of present continuous or simple present tense is to be determined by which one helps the listener most effectively. In some of my longer audios I use many both of the above as well as future tense and occasionally past tense when I wish to draw a distinction between the past and the now and the future.

I suggest experimenting and discovering which tense works best for the listener.

I also create custom audios for people who wish help in an area more intense and personal than the free audios posted on this website. 

Thanks for reading the blog and thanks for your feed back.

		<description>Hi Tim,

A long time ago I used endless look cassettes just like you did. The computer is a much better tool for making the audios though. A person with just an ordinary computer can make better quality recordings than we could back in the old days using xassettes.

		<description>Self-talk can be one of the most positive ways of transforming your life.  So many people are unaware of just how many negative words they actually speak in one day.  It&#039;s a real eye opener for people to start watching their own self-talk.  By doing so they can change from a negative perspective to a positive one which will of course generate a high vibrational energy to the Universe.  This does of course bring the highest manifestions into a persons life.</description>

		<description>Hi RK,

I think the effectiveness in using a persons name would depend a great deal on the individual, for some people it might work very well and others might find it less useful. I would recommend you just try it and watch how you react to the self talk and also be aware of how effective the self talk script is in creating the empowering changes you desire in your life. 

Let me know how this works for you!

		<description>Hello Gene,
This is very useful information. Actually I had very similar questions as Linda before. I also had this question - How effective is the self talk audio when you use your name.
Example: Tom has a great memory
OR
Tom, You have a great memory !!
Is there any right or wrong way - how do you know. OR do you go with what &quot;feels&quot; best. Thank you for you input.
