What is it about some movies that make you want to watch them over and over, yet other movies you only want to see once?
![Page 3: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
I've seen plenty of movies, and I've enjoyed plenty of movies.
![Page 4: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
But some movies, even though I'd rate them pretty high, I already know I don't want to see them again.
![Page 5: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
But other movies, I enjoy watching them every couple years or so.

Same with books. There's a few books I've read several times.

What's the difference?
![Page 8: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
For me, at least, some stories are heavy on dramatic suspense.
![Page 9: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The story and characters draw you in, and you want to see what's going to happen.
![Page 10: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
But once you know what's going to happen, the enjoyment wears off on subsequent viewings.
![Page 11: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Other movies don't have that effect.
![Page 12: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Even though you KNOW what's going to happen, you enjoy it anyway.
![Page 13: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
I think part of it has to do with the old Greek theory of "Catharsis."
![Page 14: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Meaning you get emotionally involved in the character, and vicariously solve your OWN emotions as the hero solves his or her problems.
![Page 15: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Action packed movies don't tend to have that.
![Page 16: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
But stories with strong character arcs do.
![Page 17: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Because all us humans are continuously on our own character arc, we tend to "resonate" with those stories more.
![Page 18: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
We love to see the hero overcome their own inner demons, because as we watch them, we do so ourselves, if only a little bit.
![Page 19: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
This was the genius behind Milton Erickson.
![Page 20: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
He told stories, rather than simply talking about people about their problems.
![Page 21: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
He would match a story PERFECTLY with the person he was talking to.
![Page 22: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
And by following along, they would overcome their own problems.
![Page 23: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
That's one way.
![Page 24: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Which is great if you have access to a world famous hypnotist who solves people's problems in one or two sessions.
![Page 25: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
But there is another way.
![Page 26: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
And that is to create your OWN hero's journey in your mind.
![Page 27: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Rehearse and practice mentally, overcoming those demons, and getting the prize.
![Page 28: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Most people don't like doing this.
![Page 29: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
They'd rather self-medicate themselves with hours and hours of brainless TV.
![Page 30: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Not that there's not good stuff on TV.
![Page 31: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
But when you make and watch YOUR OWN mental moves, they are necessarily going to be a PERFECT match to help you conquer your inner
demons.
![Page 32: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
And believe me, we ALL have inner demons.
![Page 33: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The whole character arc of life is to conquer inner AND outer demons.
![Page 34: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
The more successful you get, the bigger the demons get.
![Page 35: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
You will NEVER face a demon you cannot destroy.
![Page 36: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
But you HAVE to face it.
![Page 37: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
With practice, it's easy.
![Page 38: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Mental exercise. Focus on what you want.
![Page 39: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Train your mind to expect to get it.
![Page 40: How To Crush Your Inner Demons](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58a349ec1a28ab62248b635d/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
That way, you can more easily focus on what's on the OTHER SIDE of that imaginary demon, that the demon itself.
