“The most delightful surprise in life is to suddenly recognise your own worth.” – Maxwell Maltz

Maxwell Maltz was a plastic surgeon from about 1930’s-1950’s.  He was one of the early pioneers in the world of self-help.  In 1960, he wrote a book expressing the opinion, based of years of counseling patients, that without a positive view of his/herself an individual will be stuck in a continual pattern of repeating limiting beliefs thereby never successfully achieving their goals.
