I also now think that a lot of ego-based resistance to subliminal programming is the result of good 'ol "sunken cost fallacy". Having had a lot of energy, time, etc. (a lot of *life*, basically) invested into defining oneself in one way, observing particular survival patterns et. al., may result in an unwillingness to let go of it and do something else due to it being perceived as a literal "waste of life". I'm reminded of this quote from, I think, "Dune" - "When a person has become one thing, they would rather die than become its opposite" (or something to that extent, it's not that accurate an analogy for me to go look it up. Also, I'm sleepy 
).
