End Emotional Games & Manipulation • Won’t it be great to finally be able to ignore those who intend to hurt you, manipulate, or punish you? • Won’t it be great to have such a stiff outlook that nothing unimportant or useless can distract you from your chosen course? • Yes, you can learn to bear the critics, and, more importantly, you can learn to stand your trials and tribulations to focus on and achieve your dreams. Revolutionary New System • We will be developing and exploring a revolutionary new paradigm, STPHFR, that will help you map your mind in unheard-of productive ways. • This new paradigm is an evolutionary development, which we will trace through this book. • STPHFR works better than other mind-mapping methods because it provides a mapping structure (variables, sequence, impact) that better fits the workings of your mind. • The structure of this paradigm is neither too simplistic for reality nor too complicated for application. • Moreover, it works more effectively and efficiently than other paradigms when adequately applied, implemented, and practiced. Understand Feelings Now • This book explains how human emotions arise, are caused, and are chosen. • Understanding emotions will help you in every area of your life. • Feel clearer and deeper now.
