Facts Tell, But Stories Sell And People Don't Buy Hypnotherapy Services, They Buy Benefits.

Question: Why would someone pay for cosmetic surgery?
The answer is “To look better (in their own judgment).”

Why not just buy a new face and stick it on? Because you can't buy them, that's why!

Until somebody invents stick on faces, thousands of people each year are stuck. They have to buy a service they don't want called cosmetic surgery. What they want is the benefit of the service called a newer, better looking face.

In reality, we'd rather buy a new face and stick it on. It's a lot easier and less painful than the surgery. Remember that people don't buy hypnotherapy services, they buy benefits.
Facts Tell, But Stories Sell And People Don't Buy Hypnotherapy Services, They Buy Benefits.

In order to sell somebody something, you just have to remember what it is that we're offering. The problem is that, as human beings, we tend to forget facts, and we tend to remember stories. This is an inherent characteristic of the human memory system.

It's not a miraculous revelation. In fact, it's been known from time immemorial. All the great books of religion in the world are written in story form. We teach children using stories, and we do this because stories are easy to remember.

When we want somebody to remember what it is that we're offering them through the use of hypnotherapy, we need to tell stories.

Consider that if you were to be asked right now how much you could remember of what you learned in high school, you would probably say "very little". On the other hand, if you were asked if you could remember your first date, you would probably think for a moment and say "yes".

An interesting question then comes to mind, and that is, since both of these were at about the same period of your life, why is it easier to remember one than the other?

The answer is this. You do, in fact, remember a great deal of what you learned in high school. In fact, you use it every day. You just don't remember it with any degree of specificity, because what you learned was an endless string of facts and data that were to be used in your daily life in your work.

Your first date, however, is a story. There are names, faces, people, and places connected with it. You could probably tell a story and, if you stop and think about it deeply, you can probably recall sounds, and some people can even recall scents and odors.

Therefore, when you're selling hypnotherapy services, it's important, if you want them to remember it, that you put it in the form of a credible story in a prose format if you will, so that it's easy for them to hold onto and remember the story.

All the great books of religion in the world were written in story form. We teach children using stories. Here's a perfect example for you to think about:

You go to the store and see a copy of Good Housekeeping. The headline reads, 25 Ways to Keep the Kids Quiet On A Long Trip in the Car. "Just what I need", you say to yourself.

You buy it for the story and you read it for the copy. Facts tell, but stories sell. The story is in the headline and that's what got you to buy the magazine.

Do you recall the book "How to win Friends and Influence People?" The title is 10% primary message, 90% implication. The implication is that you're going to learn how to win friends and influence people.

That may or may not be true but that's why you purchased the book. Whether you really accomplish the task of winning friends and influencing people is another matter, but the title of the book said you could and you believed it.

You see what you believe, and you buy the book.

The implications of the advertising and marketing of hypnotherapy are:

• Facts tell but stories sell and
• People don't buy hypnotherapy - they buy the benefits.

As you're developing advertising and marketing plans, remember to tell good credible stories about the benefits of your hypnotherapy services, as perceived by the buyer, not you as a seller.

Now! You may be lying in bed tonight and you will hear a little voice inside say maybe I should!

Pavlov Hypnosis on Animals for the Skeptic!


This eminent Russian physiologist and founder of classical conditioning was not a hypnotist, but in his brilliant work studied the science as applicable to animals.

While observers for years had noted hypnotic effects on animals, Pavlov clearly equated hypnosis with conditioning. His series of scholarly discussions with Sigmund Freud on the subject of hypnosis are now considered classics in the behavioral sciences.

Dr. Pavlov created a new dimension in behavioral conditioning in his experiments with dogs, eliciting salivating with bells and lights, so did he also construe a (then) new aspect of hypnosis.

Pavlov claimed animal hypnosis was a "reflex of self-preservation - if the animal could not seek safety in flight or fight, it immobilized itself, and it seemed this immobility had the power of halting the enemy's attack."

He experimented with inhibitory techniques such as laying dogs on their backs with a monotonous stimuli and in fact hypnotized his dogs to remain in their inert state. He felt that feat was the reflex for inhibiting animals and demonstrated how hypnosis (like sleep) could be brought about by monotonous stimuli.

In the many experiments Pavlov and his associates had with animals to construct behavioral response, they noted the many and varying hypnotic states, degrees or levels exhibited. His contributions to hypnosis and psychology in general are enormous and can never be over-estimated.

It was Pavlov's classical conditioning that led to operant conditioning (Watson-Skinner) and today's Behavior Modification, a new science highly compatible with hypnosis.

Become The Master Of Your Mind - The Impetus For Driving Your Success

You can ignite the flame of your subconscious
mind
to create the motivation for achieving your
goals and coping with change. During these times
of crisis, shocking news of terrorism, biological
warfare and sliding economic conditions you can
transform your thinking and refocus your mind to
achieve extraordinary results in life and
business.

Now, more importantly than anytime in the last 20
years you need to transform your thinking from
reactive to proactive in your business.
A
reactive mind is poisoned by the mass weapon of
self-talking ourselves into mediocrity and
failure. A proactive mind comes about through a
simple shift in the way you talk to yourself. By
shifting your thinking
you literally transform
your business into higher performance levels and
productivity.


Proactive thinking is critical for achieving
greater success in business today. Your success
will come about with discipline in your strategic
performance marketing and planning. Regardless
of the competition in the marketplace today, we
find there is a greater weakness that prevails
because of complacency and dispirited
entrepreneurs over the fears of the present
economy.
Most of who are looking to cut staff,
reduce inventories, eliminate training, and slash
pricing to survive - when in fact they should be
focusing their thinking outside the box with
solutions on how to capture more customer share.


Adopting a proactive mindset means that you solve
your problems before they happen, opposed to
reacting with a bandage approach and scrambling
for whatever market share is out there. You have
no control over the events of the world or
current economic conditions. But you do have
control over how you position through thinking,
strategic performance marketing and planning.



Here are 5 steps to propel your performance and
edge out your competition while driving your
business up several levels.


1. Think of the ultimate strategic objective you
want to achieve. Write out your goals and
objectives and crystallize in your mind how you
will execute to arrive at the results you want.



2. Rework your tactical processes - specific
action you'll use to accomplish you goals.



3. Enroll your entire organization into your
vision and strategic objectives. Help them take
personal ownership of their role for
accomplishing your goals.



4. Leverage and capitalize on the relationships of your clients,
vendors, centers of influence, associations, and
other outside business contacts.



5. Lead with a passion, purpose, plan and the training for
reinforcing the behaviors and skills necessary to
enable everyone to take appropriate action.



Brilliant marketing doesn't always yield big
results - But proactive thinking does.

4 Perilous Myths to Avoid in Your Career and Life

Positioning or should I say extreme positioning has become a critical skill for competing with a sales and marketing edge. It's virtually impossible to remain a recluse wishing that we never had to come out from behind our computers.

Regardless of how compelling technology has become in influencing others to participate in our offerings doesn’t eliminate the need for constant contact with other people. Aesthetic values continue to reach higher levels of importance in the consumers purchasing habits. Like ability of advertisement, first impressions of company facilities, packaging, customer service communications, and yes most importantly, the value created in relationships has serious implications on the continued grow of a business.

Meeting those demands of aesthetic values and favorable impressions on others can be perilous, especially if it becomes an urgent drive. The urgent need to gain approval of everyone is an impossible desire to meet. The bottom line is that people have different tastes and you can't possibly please everyone. If you try, you will find yourself living in a bubble of universal popularity myths -- leading to anxieties and procrastination.

Flying high in your career requires that you see what myth is and what is rational. Dr. William J. Knaus says, "We act on approval-seeking myths to relieve social tensions." "These approval-seeking habits of mind inevitably lead to procrastination as we wait for the myth to become real."

Here are four examples of myths and the rational alternative suggested by Dr. Knaus.

  • Myth: Perfect first impression -- A conviction that disaster follows unless you make a perfect first impression. When you feel the pressure of having to make a perfect first impression, your hesitation and uncertainty ruins the impression.
  • Rational alternative -- Consider that though first impressions are often important, acting natural and showing interest in others is more important in creating a good first impression than worrying about how you are going to come across.
  • Myth: Perfect articulate person -- The notion that you should not express yourself unless you can do it in a highly articulate style.
  • Rational alternative -- Remember that ordinary conversations rarely translate into perfectly written text.
  • Myth: Perfect preparation -- this is the belief that you can not speak up in groups until you have read all the latest important books and completely analyzed all the current news.
  • Rational alternative -- You learn and contribute more by talking to people about what they know, rather than concerning yourself with discussing the thoughts of book writers and newsmakers.
  • Myth: Perfect complete comfort -- Idealized prerequisite to social interaction. You avoid any social contact until you feel completely comfortable and at ease. In the end, you procrastinate until the opportunity passes.
  • Rational Alternative -- Certain amount of discomfort is natural when you meet people for the first time. Feeling awkward is more normal than being comfortable.

Make Your Audience Hunger For More!


Regardless, if your goal is to make a sale or educate. You don’t want to fall prey to the mistakes that many presenters make -- loading us down with piles and piles of information and communication hodgepodge. Excellent presentations are designed to anchor in the key points that are relevant for influencing the listeners to take some kind of action.

When you make a presentation to a committee, corporate board of directors or presenting an all day seminar, your aim is to accomplish two very important goals. First, it is crucial that your audience walk away with a “Top of the Mind” memorable experience. Second, you want to influence your audience to take an immediate or future action. Every, presentation should have an outcome and action steps for your audience to take.

For us to accomplish those two goals we need to help the audience focus-in on our presentation so that we touch and communicate with the head and heart of our audience. Effectively, we want to mesmerize, hold their attention and filter out any outside distractions that would compete with our presentation and desired outcome.

We are visual beings by nature. Our eyes, being the most powerful information conduit to the brain, are always in motions feeding us images and disrupting our thought processes. People have limited attention spans and information processing capabilities. Therefore, we as presenters need to simplify the communications to hold attention for influencing the thinking of our audience.

I use a very powerful communication technique that anyone can apply with their very next presentation to accomplish extraordinary results. Your presentation and visuals will communicate faster, clearer, better and be more congruent -- eliminating the communication hodgepodge that so many presenters use.

First, reduce all you visuals to pictures and either eliminate words and numbers altogether or reduce them to three or less per visual. Visuals should be used as anchors to support your key points that you want your audience to remember.

Second, your visuals must be associated in some ridiculous and/or illogical way for transferring key points and word phases for your audience to remember and retain your information.

A simple example is: You are giving a financial report showing an increase in earnings for your division. You could use a rising balloon lifting a building block, showing the percentage of increase stenciled in the block, giving your audience and image of growth and profits. Visuals that are your typical bar charts, graphs, and lines of words are boring and have a lesser impact connecting with your audience. Whereas, ridiculous and/or illogical visuals add retention, entertainment, and can illustrate with greater impact the benefits, not just facts and figures of your presentation.

Third, support your key points and visuals with a story.

Here’s how it works:

In delivering a presentation, recently to a group of sales people, one of my key points was that we have to understand our customers buying strategies and buying incentives for us to influence them to make a purchase from us. The visual that I used (now visualize this in your mind) was a man peering over a chessboard with his chin snuggled on his tightly clutched hands with a very pensive look in his eyes. The picture was stretched and elongated to exaggerate the image to influence the inner thinking process that our customers go though in their decision-making.

I then illustrated the point with a story of how one of my clients went about uncovering his clients’ strategies, buying incentives and how this same presentation process helped him get the sales and acquire a major key account for his company. Most importantly during the story I explained how my client was able to fine out what would create a win situation for his client. That gave way, for transitioning, to the next key point and slide in the presentation.

The visual was dynamic in that it supported the key points and anchored the story in the mind of the audience. The story used was linked back to the visual and was congruent with the key points.

This presentation process reinforces your points and makes them easy to understand. You can take any subject from a ten-minute annual report presentation to an all-day training session and use this approach of structuring your presentations. When you substitute lines of words, boring bar charts and graphs, with key points, supportive stories anchored with ridiculous visuals, you make it easy for your audience to assimilate, focus, remember and become engage and mesmerized with your material.

If you want the Gold -- You have to develop the habits of winning!

We tend to look at champions like Michael Jordan who makes the game of basketball look easy, while rarely giving consideration to the endless hours of work at practicing that which makes winning possible. We don't see the years of training, practice and the power of concentration that made great champions who they are.

All champions pay the price in the action they took before expecting to reap the benefits and rewards. Success in any undertaking comes from developing habits that play important supporting roles in our lives.

In sales and marketing good habits make complex and repetitive acts possible without having to constantly stop and think about them. Good habits that are goal supporting will make life more enjoyable, while other habits will create a life of regret, anger, displeasure, frustration and lead to a destructive personal life and professional career.

Sales super stars have learned to overcome the habits of destruction by suppressing bad habits with productive behaviors that makes winning in sales possible. There are two common denominators in becoming a winner and Sales Super Star.

First: Develop the habit of becoming a master prospector for new customers

Second: Create a habit of asking. If you don't ask…You don't get.

William Schreyer, former Chairman, of Merrill Lynch, tells this story: **It seems there was a pretzel stand out front of an office building in New York. One day a man came out of the building, plunked down a quarter, and then went on his way without taking a pretzel. This happened every day for three weeks. Finally, the old lady running the stand spoke up: "Sir, excuse me. May I have a word with you?" The fellow said: "I know what you're going to say. You're going to ask me why I give you a quarter every day and don't take a pretzel." And the woman said, "Not at all. I just want to tell you the price in now 35 cent."

Nothing Sells Like Repetition

Marketing and advertising has long used techniques based on self-hypnosis. Savvy Marketers know that a message repeated again and again can sink into the deepest subconscious level of a person's mind. Repetition of a message is so effective in triggering self-hypnosis that we begin to hum or sing those Madison Avenue advertising jingles. Example: When I say "Spearmint Gum" your mind probably thought of "Double Your Flavor, Double Your Fun".

Competition is the hallmark of all Marketing and Sales and it is essential to be focused, strong, full of energy and motivated to be a success. Therefore, we can use self-hypnosis in the same way Madison Avenue dose to create our own ads and advertise to ourselves messages that propel us to greater achievement and peak performance. We all experience self-hypnosis frequently in everyday life in such diverse activities as day-dreaming, jogging, prayer, reading, listening to music, meditation, or even driving the freeways.

Self-hypnosis offers a unique opportunity for the marketing and sales professional to give themselves positive messages that will influence in a positive way their thinking, attitudes and behaviors.

**Use self-hypnosis to transform many of your fears, concerns and anxieties into strengths.

**Use self-hypnosis to transform negative thoughts into positive action and watch your sales and career take a quantum leap.

With a stroke of pluck


65-year-old avid swimmer to take the Alcatraz Challenge, and his secret weapon is hypnosis. By Ryan Vaillancourt Glendale News Press --

When Glendale resident Jim Zinger, 65, wades into the chilly San Francisco Bay on Sunday to swim the 27th annual Alcatraz Challenge, he'll be among the oldest and coldest athletes in the water.

Unlike most men and women signed up for the event, which starts at the former federal prison on Alcatraz Island and ends 1.5 miles away on the lush green shores of the Presidio, Zinger doesn't plan to wear a wetsuit over his trunks.

"Out of 650 swimmers, I think there's less than 40 going, as we say, 'naked,'" race director Gary Emich said.

But Zinger, a professional hypnotist, has a secret weapon that he likens to a mental wetsuit.

Psychological Barriers That Block Change




  • Ambivalence - the presence of two opposing ideas, attitudes, or emotions at the same time – The destructive behavior of the obsessive drinking of alcohol may relieve depression and loneliness. But stopping dinking of alcohol may take away the only means the person knows how to deal with depression and loneliness.

Fear the effort will be fruitless. In the effort to change, they will feel worst if they fail.

Perfectionism: Not being a 100% successful at change would be considered a failure.

Dreaming Your Way to Success Hypnosis Airs on Relaxation Radio Internet Radio Station

Burbank, California, May 9, 2007 -- Don L. Price leader and innovator of hypnosis training in the corporate market place and personal success coach announced today that Dreaming Your Way to Success through hypnosis will air on Relaxation Radio Internet Radio Station at www.needtorelax.us


For 39 years Hypmovation Inc. has helped tens of thousands of people overcome bad habits and experience greater success through radio, television, corporate seminars and private sessions.

Don said that Internet radio opens up a direct worldwide link for coaching minds to succeed through hypnosis. Conventional radio never allowed us to hypnotize people while being interviewed on air, for fear of what may happen, when people listened during drive time. Internet radio has changed all that because listeners are in the comfort of their home or office environment and in front of their computers not driving a car while listening.

The shows station owner of relaxation radio Chris Handley said; Don brings a motivational and inspirational message for our listeners and a full session of hypnosis that can be listened to daily. Our listening audience will profit from little-known secrets on how to train their brain to work for them and not against them with new insights and new scientific discoveries. Needless to say we are extremely pleased and excited to host Dreaming Your Way to Success. Show schedule can be found at www.needtorelax.us

In an interview with Don L. Price, he said that more than 90% of his clients who walk out of his office, after going through their private hypnosis session, experience positive life changing results. However, unquestionably when the word hypnosis pops-up in a conversation or in the mainstream press, nostrils flair, minds conjure up strong reactions of parlor tricks and pictures of late night scary movies where starry-eyed maidens are seduced to carry out satanic acts. Altered states and trance experiences have been around long before the word hypnosis.

What is unique about hypnotic communications is that it's truly magical and at the same time clearly explainable and understandable. Regardless, of the mystique surrounding hypnotic communication, there is no hocus-pocus involved, and the only tool you will need when listening to Dreaming Your Way to Success is your MIND. You can only begin to imagine the positive and dramatic effects it will have on your journey for greater success in life and business.

Don noted that his next venture will be coaching and training, individuals and groups from around the globe, in his privately secured Internet conference center.

What Triggers Insomnia? Success to Treat it...

Sleep disorders and difficulties are experienced in people for an assortment of reasons. Pain, stress, medications, alcohol, cigarettes and caffeine are major contributors of insomnia.

Resolving and eliminating these causes will enable people on their own to get the needed sleep and overcome the chronic inability to either fall asleep or keep sleeping.

However, insomniacs habituate their belief that they lack sufficient sleep causing deeper problems and requiring outside intervention.

To help treat insomnia may begin with developing habits of good sleep hygiene and hypnosis; eliminating noise levels, avoiding excess foods, alcohol, cigarettes and excessive exercise several hours before bedtime.

Learning hypnosis will bring your level of sleep deeper and sounder for waking fully rested with more energy following sleep.

Personal hypnosis sessions are easily done over the Internet with all the privacy associated with going to an office. In fact you may want to download our free session room to see first hand the facilities I use to assist people from around the world.

Growth and Development - Hypnosis

In the psychological development of all of us we must concern ourselves with the embryonic state or the nine-month period of fetal growth. Specialists tell us that there is a critical period in prenatal development during which both favorable and unfavorable genetic and biological processes may take place.

Biologists tell us that in the growth of the embryo, as specific organs develop, there appears to be a specific time sequence for their development. Should anything interfere, it is felt, the developing organ does not gain a second chance. Hence, in the case of a pregnant woman becoming afflicted with German measles, for example, the embryo can and often does become adversely affected.

Whether after birth a negative psychological atmosphere can also adversely affect an infant, while open to controversy, is largely accepted by the majority of psychologists today as true. Conversely, providing a warm, affectionate, loving and secure environment for the infant supports and stimulates favorable growth. It is felt that the first year of a child's life is the "critical" period. See writings by E. H. Erikson, "Childhood and Society" (Norton Publishing Co.), for support of this hypothesis.

Inherent growth or development from infancy is called "maturation." The experience of maturation and its influences is called "learning."

Other than to suck, cry and teach, most of what we come to know and be is learned. We learn to become whatever we may be, though dependent upon biological, environmental and developmental processes both before and after birth. With positive organic development, two other inherent capabilities are evident in humans and other mammals; they are seeing and hearing.

These are the bio-physiological aids to life as provided by nature. But behaviorally, remember our "talents" at birth are extremely limited. We have to be taught, trained, disciplined - and then, with some natural curiosity, we learn how to become members of our society, Maturation after birth then takes many turns and innumerable experiences. Most of which are learned.

While maturation lasts a lifetime, it is in the study of infants and growth (from birth) that scientists have been able to predict behavior for later on in life. E. H. Erikson and Jean Piaget are the two most prominent scientists who have investigated the phenomena of early development.

The student must remember that the regularity (or lack) of the time sequence of development determines growth, maturation and behavior. Stages of orderly maturation vary from child to child; some children learn to walk before others. Environment varies; consequently the effect of maternal love, stroking and affection (or lack) can determine or retard development, physically, emotionally and psychologically.

We go through different stages of development, dependent: upon our heredity, environment, and the orderly (or lack) maturation of our physiology and mentality.

Many studies show that motor development is more maturation than learning, indicating growth more from within than without. Here is where the growth of neural, muscle and fat tissue is more decisive than environmental influences.

Maturation, then, plus motor development are necessary for learning and behavior. It is important to note that stimulation to learning in childhood is dependent upon the maturation or maturity of the child. A child will not become stimulated unless his development has matured to that point of readiness to learn. This is why children differ in learning to walk, talk and play.

The difference is not in the age but in sequence of maturation, mentally and organically. It can then be seen that the degree of maturation invites the appropriate stimulation and not necessarily the age of the child.

From these bare-bone beginnings come the development of personality and social behavior.

Studies clearly show that the interaction of mother to child in infancy is a crucial (critical) period. Bottle-fed babies held by the mother who croons, sings, strokes and cradles the infant in her arms adjust to life as well as breast-fed babies.

Opposed to this would be the propping of a bottle against a pillow and the departure of the mother with no contact or loving interaction. Studies show that many of these infants grow up to have emotional problems. When we talk about interaction of mother to child we are talking about loving interaction, for it is well known that a tense "uptight" mother can transmit her feelings to an infant.

Heartbeat studies show that a tense mother stimulates tenseness in the infant, regardless of how the baby is fed Therefore, as a child's training (learning) begins at birth, one can easily see the effects of environment on personality, emotional growth and maturity. Influences beginning at birth are called "cultural" effects, and begin with feeding, nursing and maternal care. Later comes toilet training, (discipline), and in the process the psychological effects are stamped on the child permanently.

Also, in the satisfaction (or lack) of hunger pangs, distress at wetness, cold or heat. The experts tell us that how the feeding experience is handled determines the attitude of the infant to the world about him. A hungry baby is an exceedingly unhappy, distressed and tortured child. Just listen to a hungry baby cry to appreciate the pain he is undergoing.

On the other hand, view the utter contentment of a baby who has been lovingly held by his mother while fully satisfying his basic hunger drive. These infant-era experiences determine more about how a person shall be than any other experiences in our lives; for this is the beginning.

A good beginning can mean a happy, well-adjusted intelligent adult later on. And the reverse can be true, and may be the cause of many of our social problems today. It is well then for the hypnotist to understand the effects of where and how it all begins for all of us in infancy and early childhood.

In discussing maturation does this apply to such mundane matters as toilet training? Yes, indeed. A baby who is forced into toilet training before he is ready (mature) will acquire emotional problems, as will the mother who senses failure. Time sequence in maturation is as important in disciplining (learning) as in formation of the embryo before birth, and children differ in their readiness to respond to toilet training.

HALLUCINATIONS

HALLUCINATIONS

Many stage hypnotists delight in placing their chosen subjects in trance, handing them onions, and after telling them that they are holding a sweet roll, advise them to start eating.

The subjects then show their pleasure as they munch on the onions just as if they would something sweet. This is one form of hallucination through hypnosis.

Another is to tell a hypnotized person or group that when they open their eyes (waking hypnosis) they will see on a wall, directly opposite to where they are sitting, a sad or a happy movie.

If a sad movie is directed, the watchers will demonstrate exceedingly sorrowful facial expressions, some may even cry. If a happy one is indicated you can be sure that the hypnotized subjects will laugh, smile, grin, and at times become convulsed with laughter.

Another form of hallucination is to wave a bottle of ammonia under the hypnotized person's nose and tell him that what he smells is perfume. He will breathe in the fumes and show every evidence of pleasure, just as if he actually smelled perfume.

Still another example is to tell a hypnotized subject in a group that another person of the group has left the room and that when he opens his eyes he will not see the "departed" person.

The other person is told to remain in the room with the others, but when the group is awakened and the first person is asked where the other one has gone he will say something like, "out of the room." Even though he is now awake, he will not "see" the second person a few feet away. This, of course, is post-hypnotic suggestion, but is nevertheless categorized as an hallucination.

Yet another form is to tell hypnotized subjects that when they open their eyes a small animal (cat, puppy, rabbit, etc.) will be sitting on their laps. On becoming awake the group will be observed petting their imaginary animals. (This demonstration should be done only after ascertaining that the subjects love animals.)

The forms of hallucinatory demonstrations are almost endless. We include these examples to help explain that hypnosis is indeed an "altered state of consciousness." Certainly on the conscious level no one would comply so readily with the instructions indicated above.

We have often wondered how those few psychologists who have questioned hypnosis and who claim that similar demonstrations can be done on the conscious level, would explain either regression or hallucination.

Let Your Mouse Do The Shopping!

Unquestionably you have to mouse around the Internet to get the best deals. Clearly, just like in the brick and mortar world, the lowest price is not always the best deal. But in my case it was!

The other day I was snooping around the Internet to purchase Article Submitter so that I could reduce the time it has taken me submitting articles on the net.

So like many would do - I clicked Google search for Article Submitter and up popped a dozen or so choices to click on. The first site I clicked on brought up Magic Article Submitter – that’s not what I wanted to buy so I click on another Article Submitter and there it was.

Next I paged down the site and reviewed all the bonuses etc., with the usual claim “This Offer Is Limited.” I paged down a little further and found the asking price of $97.00

In the past I had received spam mail promoting Article Submitter for upwards of $197.00. The shopper in me said search around for a lower price and that is exactly what I did.

While searching, for the next 12 minutes, I had found three lower prices – $47.00, $14.00 and “Bingo” $9.75.

My skeptical mind log on to the one thought – is it fully functional at $9.95 and what is the hook? Having nothing to lose but a few pennies at $9.95 I clicked to purchase the product - paid for the product and downloaded it. And yes it is fully functional - no HOOKS – I have it up and running and it works fine!

Moral of the story: Mouse around on the Internet! A little time can save you a lot of money…

By-the-way – all promotional sites in each price range were similar in features and benefits - with exception to the free goodies and “Limited Time Offer”…

Proven Easy, Lucrative and Fun way to make money online

Let me ask you this question. What is one of the most
memorable experiences you have had in your business
opportunity recruiting days?

I bet it is, and I am probably not far off, when someone
is very positive and over joyed about what you have shown
them.

Everyone remembers the persons who have such positive and
vibrant energy. The "Oh that sounds wonderful" person.

The sad and frustrating part is that those people are very
few and far in between. Have you ever asked your self why?


Because, 80% of the worlds wealth is controlled by 93% of
the world's population!

Where are the nay sayers in their life, the ones who call
your ideas and opportunities scams? Are they rich? Are they
well off? Are they really where they want to be in life?
And most importantly with their negative attitude, will
they ever be?

The ones who were upbeat and out going, and "made things
happen"... where are they? Allot better off than the
nay sayers right?

Listen, have you ever met someone who is extremely
successful, but who is also the most negative person you
have ever met?

=====> IT IS NOT POSSIBLE!!

The law of attraction states that like attract like. At
opportunitymeetingplace.com you will only attract people
who are as upbeat, positive and entrepreneurial as you are!

Go back to those few positive people you have met, wasn't it
a wonderful experience? Now you can have hundreds of those
experiences at: Opportunity Meeting Place

THE COMMON DENOMINATOR OF SUCCESS

THE COMMON DENOMINATOR OF SUCCESS
Adapted from Albert E.N. Gray
Compliments of Don L. Price

Several years ago I was brought face to face with the very disturbing realization that I was trying to research and explain what it took to be a success in sales, without knowing myself what the secret of success really was. And that, naturally, made me realize that regardless of what other knowledge I might have brought to my job and to others, I was definitely lacking in the most important knowledge of all.

Of course, like most of us, I had been brought up on the belief that the secret of success is hard work, despite this; I had seen so many people who work hard and don't succeed and others who succeed without working hard. Because of this, I had become convinced that hard work was not the real secret, though in most cases it might be one of the requirements.
Given my background and training, I began trying to explain success by reviewing all relative research on such topics as motivation, behavior, performance and job satisfaction. Next, I set out on a voyage of discovery, which carried me through thousands of books, magazine and newspaper articles, biographies and autobiographies. I then conducted numerous empirical research studies in over a 20-year period.

After a time, theory, research results, and hearsay overwhelmed me. Then, one day as I was day dreaming, everything I had done came to focus. My mind focused on the realization that the secret I was trying to discover lay not only in what people did, but also in what made them do it.
I realized further that the secret for which I was searching must not only apply to every definition of success, but since it must apply to everyone to whom it is offered, it must also apply to everyone who had ever been successful. In short, I was looking for the common denominator of success.

But this common denominator of success is so big, so powerful, and so vitally important to your future and mine that I’m not going to review all of the writings and research, which have brought me to the common denominator of success. I’m just going to tell you.

The common denominator of success – the secret of success of every person who has ever been successful – lies in the fact that the person formed the habit of doing things that others don’t like to do. It’s just as true as it sounds and it’s just as simple as it seems. You can hold it up to the light, you can put it to the acid test, and you can kick it around until it’s worn out, but when you are all through with it, it will still be the common denominator of success, whether you like it or not.

It will explain why people have come into an organization with every apparent qualification for success and then given us our most disappointing failures. It explains why others have come in and achieved outstanding success in spite of many obvious and discouraging handicaps.
And since it will also explain your future, it would seem to be a mighty good idea for you to use it to determine just what sort of a future you are going to have. In other words, let’s take this big, all-embracing secret and boil it down to fit you.

If the secret of success lies in forming the habit of doing things that others don’t like to do, let’s start the boiling-down process by determining what are the things that others don’t like to do. The things that others don’t like to do are the very things that you and I and other human beings, including successful people, naturally don’t like to do. In other words, we’ve got to realize right from the start that success is something which is achieved by the minority of people and is therefore unnatural and is not achieved by following what we normally like and don't like, nor by being guided by natural preferences and prejudices.

The things that others don’t like to do, in general, are too many and too obvious for us to discuss here, and so, since our success is to be achieved in sale, let us move on to a discussion of the things that we as salespeople don’t like to do. Here too, the things we don’t like to do are too many to permit specific discussion, but they can all be disposed of by saying that they all come from one basic dislike peculiar to selling. We don’t like to contact people we think don’t want to see us, and we don't want to talk to others about something we don’t think they want to talk about. Any reluctance to follow a definite prospecting program, to use prepared sales talks, to organize time and to organize effort are all caused by this one basic dislike.

Perhaps you have wondered what is behind this peculiar lack of welcome on the part of our prospective buyers. Isn’t it due to the fact that our prospects are human too? And isn’t it true that average people are not always ready to buy and will want to escape our efforts to persuade them to do something they don’t want to do by striking at our most important weakness: namely, our desire to be appreciated?

Perhaps you have been discouraged by a feeling that you were born subject to certain dislikes peculiar to you, with which successful people in our business do not possess. Perhaps you have wondered why it is that our biggest producers seem to like to do things that you don’t like to do. They don’t! And I think this is the most encouraging statement I have ever offered to a group of salespeople.

But if they don’t like to do these things, then why do they do them? Because successful people do things they do not like to do, they are able to achieve their goals. They are not influenced by how they reach these goals, but rather by the results they can obtain. Successful people are influenced by the desire for pleasing results. Others are influenced by the desire for pleasing methods and are inclined to be satisfied with such results as can be obtained by doing things they like to do.

Purpose

Why are successful people able to do things they don’t like to do while others are not? Because successful people have a purpose strong enough to make them form the habit of doing things they don’t like to do.

When Top Sellers Slump

Sometimes even our best producers get into a slump. When a person goes into a slump, it simply means he/she has reached a point at which, for the time being, the things he/she doesn’t like to do have become more important than the reasons for doing them. And may I pause to suggest to you sales managers, general managers, and owners that when one of your good producers goes into a slump, the less you talk about production and the more you talk about "purpose," the sooner you will pull the person out of the slump.

It’s Not Enough

Many people with whom I have discussed this common denominator of success have said at this point, "But I have a family to support and I have to make a living for my family and myself. Isn’t that enough of a purpose?"

No it isn’t. It isn’t a sufficiently strong purpose to make you form the habit of doing the things you don’t like to do for the very simple reasons that it is easier to adjust ourselves to the hardships of a poor living than it is to adjust ourselves to the hardships of making a better one. If you doubt me, just think of all the things you are willing to go without in order to avoid doing the things you don’t like to do. All of which seems to prove that the strength, which holds you to your purpose, is not your own strength but the strength of the purpose itself.

Habit Is The Key

Now let’s see why habit belongs so importantly in this common denominator for success.
People are creatures of habit. Every single qualification for success is acquired through habit. People form habits and habits form futures. If you do not deliberately form good habits, then unconsciously you will form bad ones. You are the kind of person you are because you have formed the habit of being that kind of person. The only way you can change is through habit.

The success habits in selling are divided into four main groups:

1. Prospecting habits

2. Product knowledge habits

3. Selling habits

4. Working habits

Let’s discuss these habit groups in their order.

Any successful salesperson will tell you that it is easier to sell to people who don’t want it than it is to find people who do want it. If you have not deliberately formed the habit of prospecting for needs, regardless of wants, then unconsciously you have formed the habit of limiting your prospecting to people who want your product. This serves as the one and only real reason for a lack of prospects.

As to calling habits, unless you have deliberately formed the habit of calling on people who are able to buy but unwilling to listen, then unconsciously you have formed the habit of calling on people who are willing to listen but unable to buy.

As to selling habits, unless you have deliberately formed the habit of calling on prospects determined to make them see their reasons for buying, then unconsciously you have formed the habit of calling on prospects in a state of mind in which you are willing to let them make you see their reasons for not buying it.

As to working habits, if you will take care of the other three groups, the working habits will generally take care of themselves because under working habits are included study and preparation, organization of time and efforts, records, analyses etc. Certainly you’re not going to take the trouble to learn interest-arousing approaches and sales talks unless you’re going to use them. You’re not going to plan your day’s work when you know in your heart that you are not going to carry out your plans. And you’re certainly not going to keep an honest record of things you haven’t done or of results you haven’t achieved. For, if you are taking care of the first three groups, most working habits will take care of themselves and you’ll be able to afford an assistant to take care of the rest of them for you.

But before you decide to adopt these success habits, let me warn you of the importance of habit to your decision. I have attended many sales meetings and sales programs during the past 20 years and have often wondered why, in spite of the fact that there is so much good in them, so many people seem to get so little lasting good out of them. Perhaps you have attended sales meetings in the past and have determined to do things that would make you successful or more successful only to find your decision or determination warning at just the time when it should be put into effect or practice.

Here’s the answer. Any resolution or decision you make is simply a promise to yourself, which isn’t worth a nickel unless you have formed the habit of making and keeping that promise. And you won’t form the habit of making it and keeping it unless you link it with a definite purpose that can be accomplished by keeping it right at the beginning. In other words, any resolution or decision you make today has to be made again tomorrow, and the next day and the next, and so on. This decision not only has to be made each day, but it has to be kept each day, for if you miss one day in the making or the keeping of it, you have to go back and begin all over again. But if you continue the process of making it each morning and keeping it each day, you will finally wake up some morning a different person in a different world, and you will wonder what has happened to you and the world you used to live in.

You Have A Purpose

Here’s what has happened. Your resolution or decision has become a habit and you don’t have to make it on this particular morning. The reason you seem like a different person living in a different world is because you have, for the first time in your life, become master of yourself and your likes and dislikes. This is done by surrendering to your purpose in life. That is why behind every success there must be a "purpose," and that is what makes purpose so important to your future. For in the last analysis, your future is not going to depend on economic conditions or outside influences of circumstances over which you have no control. Your future is going to depend on your purpose in life. So let’s talk purpose.

What Is One’s purpose?

Purpose is something set up as an object or end to be attained. Occasionally purpose is referred to as someone’s personal mission statement. In setting your purpose, or mission statement, first create an imaginary ideal life you would like to live, in every respect. Your ideal life should be based upon who you are and where you are going in life. Let yourself dream big dreams. Let your mind float freely into the future.

Wants Or Needs?

Human beings are motivated by needs and wants. A person's needs result from a lack of something desirable, such as food, car, clothes, or shelter. Wants are needs learned by the person. They are often seen as emotional or psychological and not practical. For example, people need transportation but want a car instead of a horse or a bicycle. Most people want a luxury car instead of an inexpensive used car or truck. Instead of watching the game on television, some want season tickets at the Cowboy’s Irving Stadium. Instead of a five-room house some want a twelve-room house on two acres of land. Instead of working until one’s 80, some want to retire at an earlier time in their life mainly because they have not made their job satisfying for themselves.

Make Your Purpose Based Upon Needs.

Remember, needs are logical while wants are emotional. Your needs only push you just so far. When your needs are satisfied, they will stop pushing you. If, however, your purpose is in terms of wants and desires, then your wants and desires will keep pushing you long after needs are satisfied and until your wants and desires are fulfilled.

Recently I was talking with a young man who long ago discovered the common denominator of success without realizing it. He had a definite purpose in life and it was definitely a sentimental or emotional purpose. He wanted his boy to go through college without having to work his way through as he had done. He wanted to avoid for his little girl the hardships, which his own sister had to face in her childhood. He wanted his wife and the mother of his children to enjoy the luxuries, comforts, and even necessities, which had been denied to his own mother. He was willing to form the habit of doing things he didn’t like to do in order to accomplish this purpose.

Not to discourage him, but rather to have him encourage me, I said to him, "Aren’t you going a little too far with this thing? There’s no logical reason why your son shouldn’t be willing and able to work his way through college just as his father did. Of course he’ll miss many of the things that you missed in your college life and he’ll probably have heartaches and disappointments. But if he’s any good, he’ll come through in the need just as you did. And there’s no logical reason why you should slave in order that your daughter may have things which your own sister wasn’t able to have, or in order that your wife can enjoy comforts and luxuries that she wasn’t used to before she married you."

He looked at me with a rather pitying look and said, "But Mr. Gray, there’s no inspiration in logic. There’s no courage in logic. There’s not even happiness in logic. There’s only satisfaction. The only place logic has in my life is in realization that the more I am willing to do for my wife and children, the more I shall be able to do for myself."

I imagine, after hearing that story, you won’t have to be told how to find your purpose or how to identify it or how to surrender to it. If it’s a big purpose, you will be big in its accomplishment. If it’s an unselfish purpose, you will be unselfish in accomplishing it. And if it’s an honest purpose, you will be honest and honorable of it.

But as long as you live, don’t forget that while you may succeed beyond your fondest hopes and your greatest expectations, it is impossible to succeed beyond the purpose for which you are sacrificing. Furthermore, your surrender will not be complete until you have formed the habit of doing the things that others don’t like to do.

Give me 90 Minutes and I’ll teach you How to Form the Habit of Success!

The Secret for Overcoming Procrastination

Why do you procrastinate?

Why do you not do the very things you want to do?

Why do you have great dreams, but don’t take massive action to make them come true?

The answer lies in Newton's first law of physics: “For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction”

Let me explain:

Let's say you want something, whatever that ‘something’ is. Let's call it ‘success’ to keep it simple.

The bottom line is this: if you want success, and you want it more than anything else in the world, you will get it.

However, if you want to run away from your fears to a safe place, a place you feel secure, then you want the security MORE than you want the success. This is why you don’t achieve those great dreams.

The excuses or ‘reasons’ will ultimately sound like:

“I’m not smart enough”

“I don’t have the money”

“I don’t deserve more than I already have.”

“I don’t have enough education”

“I don’t have the qualifications to do this”

All of these excuses are what keep us from our dreams. The way to discover what we are hiding from ourselves is to learn to ask the right questions.

We KNOW all the answers. The problem is that we don’t ask the right questions. Here are two questions you can use in almost any quandary:

"What is the BENEFIT of me not realizing my dreams?" "What am I getting out of it?"

Trust me, you ARE getting a benefit or a PAYOFF for not realizing your dreams. You must discover what it is in order to eliminate it.

One of the hidden benefits or payoffs is not having to leave our comfort zone. Even if we are unhappy where we are, we have convinced ourselves that going after what we want is more difficult and more painful and staying where we are. We may be miserable, but at least we are comfortable.

The second question is: "What am I afraid will happen if I ...................... (fill in the blank with the dream)

This encompasses the changes in lifestyle we will have to make in order to achieve our dreams. Also, what others will think.

In order to have the success you want and deserve, you must answer and resolve these two simple questions.

Okay, so what do you do?

First, turn off the phone, TV, stereo, and all other distractions. Then get a pen and paper and write at the top of the page:

"The benefits of NOT realizing my dream are:"

List a minimum of 20. If you can’t ‘think’ of any, then just ‘guess’ and write them down. About the time you reach 10-15, you subconscious mind will take over. Write anything that comes to mind, no matter how trivial or insignificant.

Just allow your mind to wander and go where it takes you. Get as specific as possible.

Very few get past this point before they have some very interesting answers come up.

Now ask yourself how your fear or procrastination has served you thus far. Realize the fear is there for a specific purpose. Find the purpose and ask yourself if it still serves you to have this fear. Perhaps it is time to let go of your fear and stop procrastinating once and for all.

When you have lost the need for the fear, you will just naturally let it go (if you are ready to do so).

And when you let it go, you will be free to move toward the thing you say you want----and you'll do it with ease and joy.

Are you ready to stop procrastinating or are you going to put if off a little longer? The choice is yours.

In life you can only have two things - Reasons or Results – and Reasons don’t count! You either have what you want, or you have ‘reasons’ why you don’t have it.

Procrastination is a disease. The cure is convincing yourself that it no longer serves you.

If you would like to realize you dreams and create the life you have always wanted, I invite you to take a look at my “Secret of Deliberate Creation” program. Nothing works faster or produces better results.

The Myths We Are Told As Children! Did This Happen to YOU!

The Myths We Are Told As Children! Did This Happen to YOU!

As a young child she was told that SHYNESS was just a natural part of growing UP! But at age 41-- Emotional FEAR and SHYNESS has taken away many pleasures of life...

In her own words...

"I continue to suffer and struggle with the fear of rejection and I have:

• Set up unimaginable barriers for succeeding at work... I am highly qualified (more educated and knowledgeable than most) but I get passed over for high paying promotional opportunities! Simple because I don’t speak up for myself.

• The mental pain and suffering of shyness prevents me from enjoying a healthy social life! (even around my family)

• My high anxiety levels cause me to be too shy for working out at a fitness center… plus I’m overweight and fatigued most of the day!”

Shyness affects millions of people ever day of their life:

Are YOU or someone you know suffering from Shyness? If you are:

YOU can change all that and it’s much easer than you have been told!

Some of you may know that I have worked with thousands of people in helping them overcome all kinds of phobias, fears, stress, anxiety, drug addition, fear of success, fear of failure, fear of public speaking -- and SHYNESS -- That ranks right at the top.

In fact, SHYNESS is a major cause in the majority of clients who have chronic procrastination, lack of motivation, under developed social skills and high stress levels in their life.

And as SHE said - the easiest and most effective way that you can solve your shyness problem is with my NEW PRODUCT RELEASED -- “Overcoming Shyness Hypnosis CD.”

And she is absolutely RIGHT!

For a very limited time I will put “Overcoming Shyness Hypnosis CD” on my site as an introductory half off the regular price. But you have to hurry because I guarantee it won’t last long.

The Golden Secrets of List Building Revealed!

Do you own your mailing list?

This might sound like a strange question, but just think about it for a minute.

So you think you own your list?

Well if you use any listbuilding services, you might not. I'm sure you've seen those services where you refer people to a replicated site, they join your downline, and you can mail to them once aweek. Chances are pretty good you have even joined one, or more, of them.

There are a few problems with these services:

- You can't email "your" list when you need to
- You get email from 5 or 6 people (your upline)
- All of your efforts go towards building a huge list for the owner of the site, but not really for you.

I have known of these problems for a long time, but never did anything about it. I've wanted to, but just never got around to it.

My very good friend has done something about it - he has created a truly viral list building service with no problems like previous services.

Just take a lookat how he has solved this problem:

1). You actually own your list. Instead of building a downline, you build a mailing list that is yours, and yours alone. There won't be 5 or 6 other people sending email to your subscribers. Just you. They actually subscribe to your autoresponder, and are yours!

2). You won't get bombarded with email from a bunch of other people (your upline).

3). A built-in profit machine. After someone subscribes to your list, they will be shown a special one time offer that YOU set up. Not a way for the owner to earn a nice lump of cash, but a way for YOU to. My friend very easily could have kept this space to himself, but decided to give it to you.

I could go on and on about Viral List Builder, but I'll just let you see for yourself how this free list buildingservice can help you.

Have a look here - Thats right just click here NOW:


All the Best,

P.S. You haven't seen me promoting any other list building service like this, mostly because of the glaring flaws they all have. This is a truly unique system. It won't take long before you see a bunch of knock-offs appearing.

Just remember the original and check it out NOW!:

Fleeting Moments of Truth with Technology


As technology becomes ubiquitous, we're still going to need the soft skills, to compete and become a successful business. Development of these skills -- oral and written communications, decision-making, self esteem, overcoming the fear of speaking to groups, call reluctant and teamwork -- will be the differentiation of successful businesses built to last, oppose to those that vanish.

Today, any good breakthrough idea can spread like a wildfire globally, within seconds, in the technology economy. Technology, innovation and marketing, accelerates the speed, but it is the people, their passion and skills that sustain optimal growth and culture for an organization.

Another major aspect, of the technology economy, is that start-ups today are faced with only a short time in which to reach a viable chunk of territory and mind share of the customer. For any hope of permanent leadership position you need to move quickly -- marketing, leadership, teamwork and communications are essential for entry into any market.

In the technology economy, stress of information overload has replaced information scarcity as a new emotional, social, and political problem. The national Mental Health Association reports that 75% to 90% of all visits to physicians are stress-related. “The defining characteristics are absenteeism, diminished productivity, employee turnover, accidents, inattention, inability to concentrate and impulsive behavior.”

As technology requires maintenance, so do people. Companies need to be creative and innovative, in the care of their employees, in finding solutions too many new problems -- including isolationism with virtual offices.

Several areas companies will need to focus on are:

  • Ongoing training programs that effectively assist your employees to communicate, with congruency and enthusiasm, to your customer, what business you are in and what product you sell.

  • A program that encourages and rewards communications from the bottom-up will foster greater advances in creativity, to improve your business and personal achievements.

  • Programs that coach your teams in having fun while optimizing their success.

  • Health and self-change that enhance your decision-making, increase your concentration, cultivate better communication in personal relationships and reduce stress related illnesses.
