Written by John M. Satterfield CHt


Criteria Elicitation This is without a doubtrepparttar most important persuasion skill that you can learn. If you’ll learn to apply this to every situation in which you find yourself you’ll be amazed atrepparttar 130421 positive results! Many ofrepparttar 130422 hypnotic skills I’ll be sharing with you have a parallel in old sales training techniques. This one is no exception! Lets say that you are needing to convince someone to do something, accept something, or behave in a certain way. You will need to communicate with their powerful subconscious to get your desired agreement. Once a person’s subconscious “buys in” to what you are proposing they will just naturally seem to come over to your way of thinking. The question then becomes “how do I get my message torepparttar 130423 person’s subconscious?” Here’s your answer-elicit their true criteria. Simply put, ask. Try this one SALESMAN John what’s important to you when shopping for a new car? JOHN Well I like to know thatrepparttar 130424 person I’m dealing with is honest.” SALESMAN Yes honesty isrepparttar 130425 best policy. What else is valuable to you when you are makingrepparttar 130426 decision about a car? JOHN I like to knowrepparttar 130427 car has a high reliability rating from Consumer Reports SALESMAN an unreliable car is not an acceptable situation. What else is important john? JOHN I want to know that I got a really good price. Inrepparttar 130428 above can you put John’s criteria in order of importance? If you chose 3, 2, 1 you were right! Our hypnotically trained sales man knew to ask at least three times what was really important or valuable. He agreed and parroted each answer so that John’s SC would react

Be a Change Master!

Written by Keith Varnum


The person who masters change, masters happiness.

The best way to thrive in today's ever-fluid, volatile world, is to become a master of change. A "Change Master" not only welcomes, invites and celebratesrepparttar flux of constantly evolving life, but also consciously drives and directs these rhythms. When you live "smart," you drive change. You don't have to let change drive you. When you shift from a "resistance-to-change" mindset toward a self-empowered frame of mind, you unlock your vitality, creativity and spirit. The better you manage change,repparttar 130419 better you manage your happiness.

Change,repparttar 130420 Unwelcome Guest

Most of us were not raised to welcome change. Onrepparttar 130421 contrary, our modern Western culture promotesrepparttar 130422 opposite:repparttar 130423 pursuit of predictability. We're advised to try to keep our life as regular, set and stable as possible. The status quo is sacred. The unknown future is portrayed as dangerous and threatening. "Don't rockrepparttar 130424 boat!" we' re admonished. The collective strategy is thatrepparttar 130425 more aspects of our life that remainrepparttar 130426 same,repparttar 130427 less we have to adjust and adapt. Andrepparttar 130428 less we have to change,repparttar 130429 easier life will be. The party line is that change is inevitable-unfortunately!-but certainly no fun. Having to constantly change and grow is experienced as a struggle-a challenging, hard ordeal-by most of our elders. Their motto: "Avoid change at all costs." Look atrepparttar 130430 message of our public buildings. They are granite monuments to immutability and permanence.

Make Change Your Ally

Indigenous peoples have a different approach to change. Native peoples live closer to Nature than most Westerners do. And they take their cue from Mother Nature who advises: "Make change your friend, your ally. Allow change to work for you, not against you." The natural world suggests we learn to roll withrepparttar 130431 punches, so we can enjoy life exuberantly expressing itself through continual change.

Feng-shui Your Life

If we observe elements of nature, we see that water and wind flow withrepparttar 130432 life's tides of constant change. Water and wind are flexible and fluid, willing to transform shape immediately withrepparttar 130433 fluctuating forces acting upon them. They move inrepparttar 130434 direction ofrepparttar 130435 movement of change. They takerepparttar 130436 quickest, easiest path-the path of least resistance-no matter what changes in form are required. Hence,repparttar 130437 whole philosophy and practice of Feng-shui:repparttar 130438 art of nurturing energy flow, health and aliveness. The very term literally means "the way of wind and water." In Chinese, "feng" means wind, " shui" means water.

Change as Opportunity

Native peoples wisely view change as a personal opportunity, not as a threat. They know that change brings fresh perspectives and new possibilities. Indigenous peoples look forrepparttar 130439 gift in every curve ball that life throws us. Indigenous cultures welcomerepparttar 130440 surprise and spontaneity that naturally accompany change. They know thatrepparttar 130441 more we flow withrepparttar 130442 fluctuations of life,repparttar 130443 more resilient and happier we are.

"How Can I Steer Change to My Advantage?"

A very smart question to ask! Knowing that change is inevitable and ever-occurring, tribal peoples intuitively respond to life's fluctuations ahead of time-rather than waiting until life forces them to change, reacting afterrepparttar 130444 fact. Looking ahead with excitement and clarity, native peoples anticipaterepparttar 130445 inevitable twists and turns of life's winding river. They prepare themselves and their lives to bend, re-arrange and transform to harmonize withrepparttar 130446 upcoming meanderings ofrepparttar 130447 river. They know that change is life's agent of renewal and strategy of survival.
