What hypnosis can not do?
Hypnosis really only works for people who are very imaginative and have a rich fantasy life, so hypnosis can't affect people who are completely against that sort of thing. Many people believe that hypnosis is good for recalling forgotten events but the truth is that usually it doesn't work for that purpose and responses to memory recall are only due to leading questions the hypnotist asks. For example: If a hypnotist asks if a person was beaten as a child, the person under hypnosis may believe that they were because it was asked of them like as if it had happened. They tell themselves that that was what they wanted to remember and they alter their actual memories to support the claim. This is why hypnosis is no longer really trusted for criminal cases and important memory recall.

How do output control and behavior control differ?
When you talk about output control in a company, the managers only look at the result a single person has delivered to them. In that case it doesn't really matter how many days they've taken off or how many times they've left early, it's the result that matters. When you look at behavior control, the managers in a company look at the behavior of a person within the company. How much effort they are putting into the project, how many times they work late to finish something, how they behave around their coworkers and motivate them. This also focuses on the individual effort, if the project fails the company knows that the employees have tried their best.
Does hypnotism really exists?
Yes, hypnosis is a real phenomenon where an individual enters a state of focused consciousness and heightened suggestibility. It is often used in therapeutic settings to help individuals overcome various challenges or modify behaviors. However, it is important to note that hypnosis may not work for everyone and its effects can vary from person to person.
When did the practice of hypnosis begin?
There are two main thoughts about the origins of the use of hypnosis. First off hypnosis is really just getting a person into a certain brainwave, or state of mind. It is a natural state and we are in hypnosis just before we go to sleep, and when we first wake up. Also when we "daydream" we are in a state of hypnosis. So to use that analogy, some say the origins go back to Ancient Egypt during the reign of Ramses the XII. However really, if one says hypnosis is a certain state of mind then we can go back much further because sitting around a campfire and chanting or beating a drum will put you in that state also. However, as far as modern day hypnosis we can go right to Franz Mesmer (1734-1815). Mesmer is where we get the term "mesmerized" today. Mesmer treated patients in groups and individually and had a lot of success in doing so. One could say that he is the founding father of modern hypnotherapy.
How do you make hypnosis for other?
Are you asking how to use hypnosis to hypnotize someone? This is a very broad question, it really depends on what you are trying to accomplish. If you are taking a more stage-like approach, you would most likely be interested in covert hypnosis, or sleight of mouth or conversational hypnosis. If you were wanting to use it to help someone with a phobia, quit smoking, lose weight, etc you would be using a different type of hypnosis, for hypnotherapy.
What is a really good hypnosis video that works?

What do you do to hypnotize people?
All hypnosis is self hypnosis. So, so long as you have a way with words, and are able to manipulate people into believing what you're saying is true, they you will be successful at hypnotism. Basically what it boils down to is that if the person being hypnotized doesn't believe they can be hypnotized, they WILL NOT be hypnotized. Hypnosis does not tap deeper into you subconscious, or any of that BS, it's just really good sales men telling you "YOU CAN DO IT!"
Can somebody dislike someone after they really love them?
Yes this is possible, especially when one puts up a behavior that was noticed before. Strange behavior is responsible for this. But before disliking the person you can as well talk to him about the behavior.

social interaction
Do the people at hypnotize shows really become hypnotized?
Although sometimes it is staged, yes, they really do become hypnotized because hypnosis works. Also, you will notice them doing a few "tests" on the audience so they can find the best "victims" that will respond best to their hypnosis.
