Recently I have had a number of readers contact me and since they came in email and not as comments on the blog, I thought everyone would like to hear my answers. Joshua wrote in with a positive response to TRN Inter-Talk and Alvin wrote in asking me to compare Inner Talk to TRNs Affirmation Audios.

In response, while I found Inner Talk-an NLP program to be very powerful, I still prefer TRN’s Affirmation audios. I believe them to be the best commercial affirmation audios available and I continue to use them. Home-made audios using the TRN format are even more powerful.

Nick wrote in to tell me that he was using Subliminal MP3 audios and was having a profound effect from these subliminal audios. Personally I am only seeing a small effect from these audios but that is likely because I have impaired hearing in the upper ranges and this may be causing me some difficulty. BTW-in the spirit of not competing with my followers, Nick has his own Personal Development E-book website at: http://tinyurl.com/yfk9fbv. While I have not reviewed their products, it might be worth looking at.

Finally, My rant for today. I am getting really tired of the hype in the personal development market.  I write this blog because I want to help people and I really don’t like the hype that I am seeing. The latest thing to irritate me is the way that Steve Jones is promoting his Paraliminal audios. He had gotten a trademark for the word “Paraliminal” but, he makes it sound like he has gotten a patent for his process. A trademark is nothing more than a license to have exclusive rights to use a specific word-it does not mean that the process that it represents has in anyway received a patent. He makes it sound much more important than it is. I happen to like Steve’s Paramininal products and I do use them on a fairly regular basis but, I just don’t like the hype.

Currently, I am working very hard on reviewing a number of new programs and will get them to you as soon as I can.
