Can Self-Hypnosis Lead to a Better Life?

Self-hypnosis: what it is and what it can do
Hypnosis is the practice of promoting an altered state of mind or consciousness where patients become highly responsive to suggestions by the person performing the hypnosis. It is often used in psychiatric and medical treatments. Hypnosis is characterized by repetitive vocal suggestions and commands that are uttered in a monotonous tone of voice. The sound is meant to induce relaxation and calmness by focusing the patient's consciousness on a specific subject or idea.
With the use of self-hypnosis to achieve a better life, the act is performed by the patient himself, usually through the aid of a picture, video or audio recording. Sometimes, self-hypnosis that is similar to meditation may also be used. This is accompanied by controlled breathing exercises and repetitive verbal self commands.

On a basic enough level if your "self talk" sucks it is going to have an impact.

People who go around all day with an attitude of "this sucks. it won't work, it is going to fail" usually do see a lot of failures.

On the flip side then having great self-talk is going to help... "I can do this..., I can make this work..., this is just another challenge which I will successful conquer...". This type of self-talk helps a LOT.

So I don't know if that is Self-hypnosis or not but it does work and self-talk is probably the best place to start. If you don't have great self-talk then work on that first before using some elaborate system.

There are a lot of great books on self talk and self image out there.

I highly recommend the book "Loving What Is" by Byron Katie.
If you have recurring negative thoughts then it's highly likely that those are deeply held beliefs you have. This books deals with letting them go.

Your self image should lean just past your edge.

If you go too far, you’ll end up as a real life Twilight Zone episode.

Changing yourself precedes changing your environment. Sure, you can use hypnosis, gnosis, or any other -osis that works for you.
