Gabriela Herold

I am Gabriela Herold. I studied German Studies, English Studies, Education, and also Developmental Psychology. I hold two state examinations and worked as a secondary school teacher from 2013 to 2024, engaging with children, teenagers, and parents. In 2020, I became a mother myself. In 2024, I finally manifested my dream job: becoming a full-time martial arts instructor for children. This was made possible through the principles and insights I share in this book. I am not a psychologist, though. I have meticulously researched what works and I apply it. I use the magic of language every day. It really exists, and it can be explained psychologically. In psychology, the concept of the self-fulfilling prophecy has been known since 1911. However, very few people are aware of the (negative!) self-fulfilling prophecies they live by and that they have a choice. You can decide what is written in your prophecy and what becomes true: “Money is not important,” or “My needs are important, so money is important.” “Admirable people love others more than me,” or “I choose people who recognize my worth.” I simply replaced my self-fulfilling prophecies in all areas of life. And that’s no secret formula.
