For the first 38 years of my life all I wanted was to be rich and famous. For me, “making it” would have meant I’d have several millions of dollars in my bank account and my picture on the cover of Fortune. But at the same time I had these dreams, I was generally depressed and very unhappy most of the time; I could not get relationships to work.
I took the est training in 1975, which totally shifted my focus from personal material success to making a difference in the world — to assisting others to have a better life. For several years I either worked full time on the est staff or assisted as a seminar leader and training supervisor. I was making my contribution to the world by supporting the est organization, which seemed to be making more of a difference in people’s lives than anything else I knew about. (Unfortunately, although the est training changed my perspective on life and made me feel less a victim, none of my specific problems were eliminated)
First I changed my life
Several years after leaving est (in 1985) I created the first of The Lefkoe Method (TLM) processes, the Lefkoe Belief Process. Because I didn’t fully understand how it worked and how to use it effectively on myself, it took many years before I was able to eliminate enough beliefs and conditionings to rid myself of my depression, unhappiness, and relationships difficulties.
But eventually I did. Once my life really started to work and I fully understood how to effectively use the various processes that comprise TLM, I was able to focus totally on making available to the world the same processes that had saved my life.
Obviously I need to earn money to pay my personal bills and the expenses of my company (including salaries, the cost of creating new programs, and Internet expenses), but my primary focus (sometimes my wife Shelly says, my “sole focus”) is on making TLM available to as many people as possible. I am committed to improving the quality of life on this planet.
What we offer without charge
In order to eliminate enough beliefs to get rid of a specific pattern, you might need to purchase our Natural Confidence program, or have private phone or Skype sessions, but I’ve created a free online interactive program that enables people to eliminate 3-4 of the most common and damaging negative beliefs.
Although you need to take the Lefkoe Method Training (LMT) -1 and 2 to learn all the details and subtleties for finding all the relevant the beliefs that cause specific problems and eliminating them, I’ve provided without charge the actual steps of the Lefkoe Belief Process, video demo sessions, and a number of blog posts explaining how to find and eliminate beliefs.
Although you might choose to have private sessions where you get help in deconditioning the triggers that cause emotional eating, I’ve written a Kindle book, The Secret To Ending Emotional Eating For Good, (available at http://amzn.to/13UlymT for 99 cents) that explains the real source of emotional eating and that describes in detail a process (the Lefkoe Behavioral Deconditioning Process) that deconditions the triggers that cause most emotional eating.
Although you can register for our Lefkoe Freedom Course where you will learn how to make automatic a process to dissolve the meaning you give moment-to-moment events (a new course one is starting next week), I’ve written at least 10 blog posts and created several instructional videos that explain how to dissolve meaning. You can get started on dissolving meaning making use only of the free material.
In other words, we have blog posts, interactive online processes, Q&A webinars, and video tutorials that provide significant free assistance in making fundamental improvements in your life. And if you want even more assistance, we have paid material starting at as little as $79.
In addition to all this, I answer as many of the comments and questions on my blog and emails sent directly to me as I possibly can. And, finally, several times a week I spend 5-10 minutes on the phone with someone who is having difficulty using our free material so I can show them how to use it more effectively.
This isn’t bragging; it’s just a fact
I’m not telling you all of this to brag or show how wonderful I am. I am just incredibly fortunate to have created a bunch of techniques that can make a profound improvement in people’s lives. And I am committed to using those techniques to make as big a difference in as many lives as possible. That’s just a fact.
The mission of the Lefkoe Institute is to be the best source of information on how to improve the quality of your life and the best source of techniques that actually help you do that.
My goal is to ultimately have TLM get absorbed into the culture, where everyone knows the power of beliefs, where parents help their children form positive beliefs, and where most people can help themselves and others eliminate beliefs.
Stress and unhappiness are not inherent in human nature. People do not need to suffer. It is possible to get rid of our fears, along with the negative behavior and feelings that plague us. It actually is possible to live a life of joy. I’m inspired daily by this vision of what’s possible.
I’d like your support
If this vision inspires you also, I want to ask for your support. Please help me get TLM out into the world. Please share your personal experience of using it with anyone who could benefit. Tell people how TLM helped you improve the quality of your life. And then please tell people where they can learn more: the free belief-elimination online process (http://recreateyourlife.com) and my blog posts (https://mortylefkoe.com)

I enjoyed that
I want a story like that but with me in it i enjoyed that it was fun ass nothing
Morty,
I have a question/problem myself about your material. I have purchased and listened to Natural Confidence which focuses on beliefs. Then I went further and got the Lefkoe Occuring Process, or LDMP for short. My issue is with working through LDMP is that I feel as though even when you can take this material, and apply it I have lingering issues with it.
For example I can dissolve a negative feeling I have toward someone I’m in a relationship with who previously would annoy me leaving dishes everywhere; but at the same time if I don’t take care of the dishes they will sit there for an extended period of time. In my example, I feel as though this method is just helping me “bury my head in the sand” sort to speak. It isn’t fixing the the underlying issue, “leaving dishes everywhere annoys me, because they know I will just clean up after them or it will sit there for an extended period of time” Doesn’t change. I despise living in a dirty environment. I’m not a super neat freak but come on.
The pattern is: Dishes left out—>me annoyed, they know I will just clean it up—> Me speaking to them and explaining I would appreciate they clean up after themselves—>I use the LDMP to dissolve negative feelings, BUT ONLY FOR THE MOMENT…BECAUSE—> It happens again confirming my previous annoyance. This is just one example.
If you could please advise me Morty, I think I could solve a lot of daily arguments, negative feelings, etc.
Thank you.
Hi Michael,
You say you “got the Lefkoe Occurring Process.” I’m not sure what that means. That process is made available in the Lefkoe Freedom Course where we teach people how to use the LOP. I have no idea what the LDMP is. So I’m not sure what you are using.
In any case, no one said you can’t take action to change a situation you want to change. You can ask someone to clean up the dishes and handle it any way you want. But leaving dishes is not inherently upsetting and if you don’t give it meaning, you can stop the suffering while doing what’s necessary to change the situation.
All of this is explained in detail in the Lefkoe Freedom Course.
Love, Morty
