Offers a simple yet very effective technique that works!, March 2, 1999
Reviewer: A reader
Whenever motivational speakers address the “how to’s” of a person who wants to change his life, the first place they go for resolution is the person’s “beliefs.” They give us a 12 step, 28 day (and if you miss a day you start all over again) program of affirmations, written and mental exercises, all designed to change your beliefs and behavior. FOLKS, STOP RIGHT NOW! In his book, Re-create Your Life, Morty Lefkoe offers us a simple yet very effective technique that quickly and permanently eliminates the beliefs that keep us stuck. His description of the DM Process intrigued me, then the case studies sold me, as I quickly tossed out my initial skepticism (belief) about eliminating life-long beliefs so easily and efficiently. WOW! It’s an amazing technique that he’s so graciously shared with the world (or at least those that read) in his book. I’m in the business of helping people feel better in their bodies, mind and emotions and I use several powerful tools to achieve that, but I must concede that Morty has discovered something worth calling a “revolutionary” process. I’ve tried the process and there’s a beauty to it– it’s experienced from a place of love. Morty helps us get back to our God within. He has created a technique that has the potential to change the human experience and, as we enter the energy of the new millennium, “change” smacks us in the face. The Decision Maker Process has the potential to create a richly healthy, happy and caring human experience on this planet.

Learn how to stop thwarting your own success!, March 2, 1999
Reviewer: A reader
Have you ever wanted to lose weight but somehow kept sabotaging your efforts to do so? Or wanted to change careers but were afraid you may not have what it takes to succeed? Or were afraid of something that you knew was totally irrational but for some reason those fears kept popping up and kept you from doing things you wanted to do and from enjoying your life? Well, if so, then this is the book you need to read. RE-CREATE YOUR LIFE reveals the secret to why we do all those things that get in the way of our own happiness. And it’s so simple and makes such sense! Once you understand WHY you’re doing what you’re doing, that it’s really a survival strategy that’s based on certain beliefs that you have (that may even be unconscious), you can follow the easy steps to get rid of those beliefs and totally and permanently change your behavior, your life, and the way you feel about yourself. All I can say is that it has worked for me and I have tried the process on about 20 of my friends and it has worked for every single one of them. I don’t usually endorse products or books or things, but I consider this kind of a public service message. Why continue to block yourself from achieving what you want when you can learn how to live your life as if you are the one making the decisions and creating your life, which you are!

Powerfully simple and simply powerful, July 29, 1999
Reviewer: A reader
Both the Decision Maker Process and the book written about it are powerfully simple and simply powerful. For years I`ve believed “I don’t matter”, “I’m not worthy enough to be loved by a man”, “Being in families is painful”, “I don’t deserve to be happy”, and “The way to survive is to not let people in.” These beliefs have been at the basis of undesirable patterns that have driven my life. While years of therapy, reading, retreats, and processing helped me identify the patterns and beliefs, they did very little to diminish their strength in my life. I continued to use a wall of words like a veil to separate me from my feelings, to keep me numb and not let others get close to me. In order to avoid real intimacy, I would keep busy. It was hard to relax, loosen up and have fun. Then I heard Morty Lefkoe speak at a Wellness Conference and learned about the Decision Maker Process. After experiencing three sessions of the Decision Maker Process, those beliefs no longer exist and the patterns no longer drive my life. I just married the warm, funny, supportive man I’ve been living with for eight years in a fun ceremony on the top of a dam above sunny water and blue sky. I’m happy to be part of a special family and stepmother to his perceptive, sweet, 11 year old boy. Each day we grow in deeper love and respect with one another. I devoted a year of college to studying other techniques and philosophies seemingly similar to the Decision Maker Process and found none. It stands as unique in helping people transform themselves and re-create their lives. The Decision Maker Process clears the way for living in a space where nothing is missing and anything is possible. That, after all, is the space we are all born into.

I receive an overwhelming number of daily emails linking to blogs, most of which I glance at and delete. I actually read most of Morty’s and Shelly’s. They write well about fascinating ideas and teachings. They have a clear, intelligent logical approach, and more importantly write from experience with heart, warmth, honesty and vulnerability.

Just a quick note to thank you for your weekly insightfulness and addition to your courses through your weekly blog. I find it helpful to read your blog weekly as it reinforces the work that we have done together. I see the value in it for those who have not participated in your work. It gives them a place to enter the conversation and begin to glean a new understanding of themselves and others around them. Most of all thank you for contributing to my life and those you are reaching. To a prosperous and joyous 2014.

I've been reading Morty's blog off and on for about 3 years and I have to say that it is the best source of self improvement information out there today. Every week, he posts a new article full of content on how you can improve yourself and your life by eliminating the beliefs and meanings we give in every moment of our lives each and everyday. The blog articles stretch my perception of reality, and how I view the world.

Mortylefkoe.com is an incredible resource of information - sort of an encyclopedia of personal development. I often use the search tool to read articles in reference to certain topics I'm curious about or am working on in my life. Practically any topic you might be curious about, Morty has an article chuck full of life-altering information in it. It is an almost never-ending source of information and actionable steps to improve your life.

No matter how well you know Morty and his work, you will learn a TON from it and grow as a person. It is a great intro to his work, as well as a great way to dive deeper. I am personally very grateful that he continues to write in it his new thoughts and techniques. It has helped me incredibly in my life!

There's more actionable advice in Morty's blog than in most of the self-help books out there (I know because I've read most of them). Plus it's free. So I urge you to start reading it, today!

I never miss Morty's weekly blogs. They put his work into concise and clear terms. He shows how the Lefkoe Method applies to a myriad of real human situations that cause suffering to most people. He explains how to eliminate this suffering by eliminating the core beliefs that fuel it such as "I'm a failure." He also demonstrates how his method differs from psychotherapy and is often more effective at producing long-lasting change in less time. … The blogs are different from his other services or products in that you don't need to buy them, schedule a session, or order a book. They are … brief, reader-friendly language, enough to read on a 10 minute break from work, for instance. The best part is I've seen positive changes in my own life that come directly from his blogs. This means a lot coming from a psychotherapist trained extensively in models of psychotherapy. I've also found them useful in my work with my own clients and to complement many theories of psychotherapy. I could go on effusively about Morty's magnificent blogs but I think I've already made my point.

Thank you! I've read and considered the concept of creating my own world many many times but this is the first time I've actually experienced and felt it at my core. As you point out, it is one thing to know something intellectually and another to actually feel it and fully believe it. Thank you so much. This was truly a positive life changing experience. I will pass it on to all of my friends. I wish you every happiness and continued success.

-Shirley

I have to tell you that you really broke something open for me when you shared your story about creating obstacles for yourself, because you thought your value was in how hard you could work to overcome those obstacles. Listening to you was a major "Aha!" moment for me - I realized I had been doing the same thing! I've experience enormous and recurring relief, knowing that I don't ever have to struggle again, and I'm perfectly worthwhile. Opportunities that I have been wanting for a long time have come pouring through the door since that "Aha!" moment...so thank you for putting your material out into the world!"
