Chapter 9 explains that failure is not a personality, but a habit of reacting. Maltz teaches that success and failure are the result of patterns — not who someone “is,” but what they repeatedly do.
He shows how the mind creates “failure mechanisms” like frustration, hopelessness, and self-doubt — and how to replace them with success habits, self-direction, purpose, and calm action.

This chapter breaks down how to build a “success-type personality” by eliminating emotional habits that sabotage your goals and replacing them with mental patterns that support confidence, resilience, and forward movement.

In this uplifting episode of The Frequency Shift, Alexis and Susan dive into Chapter 7 of Maxwell Maltz’s Psycho-Cybernetics: “You Can Acquire the Habit of Happiness.”

What if happiness wasn’t something to chase — but something you could practice like a skill?
What if you didn’t need permission, success, or the perfect circumstances to feel good now?

We unpack Maltz’s game-changing message: Happiness is a mental habit, not a reward.
Join us as we explore:

• The myth of “I’ll be happy when…”
• Why children are naturally joyful — and how to reclaim that
• The neuroscience of choosing positive focus
• How guilt and perfectionism block joy
• Simple daily shifts to rewire your emotional baseline

This is your permission slip to stop postponing joy and start practicing peace — right now.

You’ll learn how tension, anxiety, and over-effort actually block the success mechanism built into your subconscious mind. Dr. Maltz invites us to lean into a calm, confident state — where performance flows naturally, and creative solutions emerge without strain.

This episode explores:

• Why trying too hard often backfires
• The link between muscular tension and mental stress
• How to practice "relaxed success" through mental rehearsal
