Jose Silva began his research into the mind and human potential in 1944 and began finding ways to help his children improve their test scores and earn better grades in school. During the next 22 years he helped many people in his hometown of Laredo, Texas, to change their lives for the better with the groundbreaking techniques he was developing. This book has those techniques, the way he researched them, with the exact words he chose for the formulas that have now helped millions of people worldwide to make the rest of their life the best of their life. Jose Silva Jr. was the first of Jose and Paula Silva's 10 children. He was there when his father began the scientific research that unlocked the secret of developing intuition and using it regularly and reliably in all aspects of your life. Nobody is more qualified than Joe Jr to teach you how to apply his father's research findings to your business career. Joe was not a research subject - Joe documented the research, recording the sessions and filing the data that his father was acquiring. By observing and recording Joe was provided an understanding that nobody else has of how to how to help the average person develop extraordinary mental powers. When Mr. Silva realized that he needed to establish a business to propagate his findings, he called on his son Joe to help manage the new business, something Joe continues to do today. Then when Mr. Silva started the new Silva UltraMind Systems business 25 years later, at the age of 84, he put Joe in charge. Ed Bernd Jr. grew up in the newspaper business and said he was way beyond skeptical about ESP-he was certain that it didn't exist. Ed says that he has used his ESP virtually every day since he attended that first Silva program back in 1975. He became a Silva Instructor in 1977, and was invited to join the Silva world headquarters staff in 1981 as an instructor and editor of the company newsletter. He quickly began putting his communications skills to work to let people know about the benefits of the program, and worked with Jose Silva as editor or coauthor of more than a dozen books.
