Audiobooks-Your Best Tool for the Daily Commute

admin — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 04:12:40 +0000

The average daily commute to work and back home is one hour. That means on average you are spending 5 hours on the road a week. Or roughly 20 hours on the road a month. Or 240 hours on the road a year! What do a lot of us do while we are on the road? Most of us listen to music. Some start talking away on their cell-phones. Others feel the need to yell at every inept driver on the road. When you take into account that most university students spend roughly 250 hours a year in the classroom earning a degree, you can understand the true importance of those accumulated road hours. Commuting hours should never be wasted, but rather converted into value-producing time for personal and/or professional development.

Over the years, I have accumulated quite a collection of audiobooks and courses. I make sure that whenever I get into my vehicle for a drive that will last over 20 minutes, that I have an audiobook CD ready to play. Just think about it. In one daily commute, you can have the equivalent education of a university lecture right there in your car, without doing anything extra.

People are often surprised that I can speak in both Portuguese and Spanish and they ask me where I learned how to speak those languages. I tell them, “Inside my car.” I simply listen to those foreign language courses everyday to and from work and having not added any extra things on my already busy schedule, I have self-taught myself two new languages.

Audiobooks will never replace the written word, but think of them as a time-efficiency tool. We all know that our value as employees and as people is often weighed heavily by the knowledge and skills we possess and therefore it becomes important for us to always increase our value by continuing to educate ourselves on subject matter that is applicable to our own lives. Audiobooks and courses provide a medium for you to accomplish this with little to no direct impact on your existing schedule. Now that i-pods are widespread, the ability to learn while on the go has never been simpler.

The audiobook industry publishes a lot of great titles out there for personal and professional development and I highly recommend that you convert those commuting hours into hours of significant value for your overall self-improvement. If you dedicate your commuting hours to learning something of value, then in a 30 year career, you can get the equivalent education of seven or eight PhDs without changing anything in your life. Take action on this today and go out and get your first audiobook and make it a regular commuting ritual.

Business and Timing – How is Your Tool Box?

admin — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 16:12:22 +0000

You always hear of online and direct marketing businesses that took off and several people were making a lot of money. First thing that comes to my mind is “YEAH RIGHT!” So you didn’t get involved. Sound familiar?

Business is all about timing!

If you are like me, you probably said to yourself if I had only got in sooner. Am I right?

Are there such things as “GET RICH QUICK BUSINESS?” Yes, there are flash in the pans of course, but where are they today? If you did not get involved when the timing was right or if you didn’t possess the business skills required it didn’t happen for you.

To have a viable, successful and profitable business you need a solid foundation! You must have a marketable product that is a NEED product first and the tools to be successful. And of course the all important “longevity!” Don’t forget sweat equity!

Next you were promised that your sponsor or upline would help you get your business off the ground. You got excited, paid your money to start your new business. You called your upline and requested their assistance as promised. Their response was “Your training is contained on the web site” or come to a meeting where they don’t train but they present the business to potential clients that you may have brought. This is a great way to communicate your business, but how do you present the opportunity to people to get them to that meeting? How is this accomplished, that’s our question right? How do I get started? Has this happened to you?

See your sponsor or upline assumed you have solid business principles, marketing, internet and communication skills already. Or they just wanted to add another person to their line.

You see you don’t throw mud against the wall to see what sticks. So you drop out disillusioned and with a bad taste in your mouth. The bad thing about this is, you will probably no longer have an open mind about another opportunity offered to you. Thus you could be passing up the one opportunity that could in fact get you financially free. Totally change your quality of life.

So this bad practice by others has in fact stolen your dreams. You have settled for your current situation. Knowing well that is where you are going to stay.

So where am I going with this?

Honestly, if I could show you how to put 5 to 10 people into your business per week regardless of the product or service, is it worth a look?

A business colleague of mine told me; “If you want to play with the Big Dogs, you have to get off the Porch!” Don’t let your DREAMS get Stolen Again!

Incorporate More Learning Into Your Life!

admin — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 16:11:33 +0000

If you have read anything I`ve written, you know I consider learning as the foundation upon which all improvement, development and growth is built.Consider this – learning is required to change anything in any part of our lives! We have all been learners our whole lives, and yet as adults we often think about learning in a school context, and we “graduated” from that phase of our lives long ago. And yet, while we all do it naturally, we don’t often enough do it intentionally and consciously.To help make the concept of learning more real – both personally and at work – let me suggest five questions to you.The Five QuestionsWhat worked? Asking this question first allows you to look to the positive first. Many move to the second question first (you`ll see in a second). Train yourself to start here. It will help your confidence and remind you of what you want to keep doing right!What could be improved? Often this is the only question ever asked, which offers a very unbalanced view of the problem and even the potential solutions. You need to think about what can be improved, of course, but it should be the second question you ask, not the first; and certainly not the only question you ask!What was my role in the result? This question helps you think about the situation more personally and helps you begin to think about the actions you can take in the future. When asking this question in a group, ask it both as a group (i.e. What was the team`s role in the result?), and from each person`s perspective.What can I do now? This is critical since it`s about taking action. Once you have asked the first three, based on what you learned, you are prepared to decide what you will keep doing and what you will change.How can I use this lesson later? This question helps you apply any lessons from this current situation to others in your life. Perhaps something happens at work; since you`re consciously in a state of learning you realize you can use this experience in a relationship or communication situation at home (or vice versa). This question gives you great leverage to use your life and work experiences to improve other areas of your life every day!Each of these questions is powerful and can be asked at any time. However, it`s when you ask all five, in the order you just read them, that you will receive the maximum benefit. They are listed in an order that promotes learning and action.Additional ThoughtsHopefully you see how these questions can apply to you. You can ask them at any time after any event or on the way home looking back on your entire day. You also can use them as a team or group to think about how things are going and how you can continually improve your work.Asking these questions helps you become a more intentional learner. Rather than waiting for some insight to come to you, or learning only when a problem is very obvious, these questions set you up to learn every time you ask them. Since you create a learning opportunity every time you ask them, my suggestion is to ask these questions often – even daily.Lastly, if you look closely at the questions you can see that they focus on what you can do. These are accountability questions that help you be and stay accountable for your actions, your results and your learning.As you begin to ask these questions more consistently and openly, you will become more intentional, conscious learners – using everyday situations as the starting point. With this starting point your growth and success is assured.Potential Pointer: To reach your potential you must become an intentional, continual learner. These five questions – asked in order – can help make that happen.

Development of Self Voice and Mind The Basics of Everything

admin — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 16:11:26 +0000

In order for women to develop themselves, their voice and their mind, they must first look deep into them and analyze the way they assimilate information. When a woman knows this, she may then try to improve herself. A study about women was conducted and some women were interviewed by researchers, showed that women have different ways of knowing or acquiring knowledge. These ways of knowing are centered on how women perceived themselves as individuals.
The first way of knowing is silence. This is defined as a total dependence on figures of authority for facts and truths. The women are virtually incapable or unwilling to stretch their minds and think for themselves. They have been pre-programmed by either their families or men in their lives that they cannot live without them. Therefore, even the thought of these women are governed by these authority figures. The women who fall in this category are very dependent on the figures of authority for opinions and ideas. Some of the women here are not even aware of the development of self, voice and mind.
Another way of knowing is received knowledge. Here, women are susceptible to the voices and ideas of other people. They are easily swayed and tend to be convinced when confronted with a strong personality. They also worry that forming their own opinion or voice may hurt other people. Women in this way of knowing believe that their friends and peers all share the same view regarding knowledge. This view is that facts and truths come from figures of authority and that these facts or truths should not be doubted or questioned. They easily retain the facts and figures they hear and may also say them without really understanding them. Understand this is all notions delivered by philosophers that have very few concrete facts to support such claims.
The third way of knowing is subjective knowledge. Logic, analysis and language are mistrusted by women who think this way. They believe that logic, analysis and language are tools often used by the male species therefore not for them. These women are almost always non-confrontational when supporting their opinions because they would hate to alienate people whom they know. They are usually very passive and they do not care if their advice is taken or not. They have a sense of confidence but they lack the follow through needed to support their opinions. These women often lack grounding in themselves and they need a secure, integrated and long lasting self-concept.
Procedural knowledge has two versions, connected and separated. These describe the way women relate to each other during discussion and forums. In the connected version of procedural knowledge, women are connected by their sense of empathy and they relate to each other well. There are no violent of hostile reactions to opinions and ideas, which may arise during discussions. The women here are sharing what is in their minds and their feelings, in such a way that they bond among themselves. In the separated version of procedural knowledge, the women are very eager to prove each other wrong. This kind of attitude often results to heated argument and debate. They are conditioned to think that they must doubt the ideas of others and shoo them down.
The last way of knowing is constructed knowledge. These women have learned to integrate objectivity and subjectivity into their minds and they have found a balance. They usually have high tolerance of being contradicted and ambiguity. They have also managed to use their minds to construct and deconstruct information to suit them and to present a viable idea. These women are very good at analyzing and putting their ideas into perspective. They have also come into terms with the others who are more volatile and passive than they are.

Your Home Business Tools

Us home business entrepreneurs, who use computers, can improve our personal worth resumes by learning as much as we can about hardware, software and target marketing.

Increasing our knowledge, training and soft and hardware portfolios will make us more effective electronic home business systems folks, saving time and money sharply.

Updating and improving software is usually a breeze, with most computer systems and software systems working hand in hand to prompt you to download the upgrades and a one click installation that, with common broadband speed, will complete in a fairly short time.

Even if they say it is okay to have other programs open I strongly suggest having no other programs open while you use your computer to download or to work at your home business. Nice and easy to get a good download without serious possible mishaps.

You will have enough unnecessary glitches along the work path as it is.

Your hardware upgrades are a little more difficult to keep track of. A home business owner, who is less than geek level, should find a beginning level computer magazine that will tell the owner the latest products as well as their features and uses.

Always keep your eyes and brain searching for high quality internet and computer people to form working relationships with. Many talented computer programmers are weak at marketing. Learn your marketing and you can have a power business relationship with these people, benefiting you both.

Getting online without any interruption, either through broadband or DSL, is important to a computer home business. With all the virus and spyware that needs to be kept updated and used this is not always possible.

Nor would she want to spend quality sales or marketing time waiting for a home business computer to upload. The lesson is clear. If you want to move up and keep up to date, you need to get a DSL line when you can afford it.

Us home business owners do not have to be a security expert but do have to have a complete understanding of the basics of the threats to our sensitive computer systems we depend on to keep our business functioning as smoothly as possible.

We should understand the meaning of irritating and real threats like viruses, Trojan horses, worms, phishing and spoofing. Virus protection, and other common security software is a must for a home business computer. No exceptions.

While the most common security products are Norton and MacAfee there are some free security products that are excellent protection as well. AVG, SpyBot Search and Destroy and AdAware.

Your internet techie buddy can help you focus on the best of these to use. Your usp or DSL or broadband providers can help in this area also.

You owners of home business computers can save a lot of time, energy and repair fees by knowing the up to date ins and outs of computer maintenance and troubleshooting.

Personal Goal Setting for a Purpose Driven Life

admin — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 16:49:52 +0000

Are you ready to live a highly successful life, achieve all of your goals, and enjoy the success you know deep down that you really deserve? If your answer is yes then before you go any further you must answer the following searching question.
Just what is your purpose in life? If you dont have a ready answer, dont be too surprised. Even the greatest of the philosophers who have ever lived succeeded only in making this question more profound. Why? Because the answer lies not in simply knowing what is your purpose in life but lies in discovering what is your goal in life. The last one is only possible if you have already gone through the process of goal setting.
Soul searching is actually personal goal setting in its infancy. The only problem is that for many people that infant never grows up into maturity. The person involved in soul searching might dismiss this process as nothing but being sentimental. Without realizing it, the person has just killed the infant, or his chance to flesh out the course of his purpose driven life.
But luckily, soul searching is a recurring process. So the next time you have been given the honor of another visit, be mindful.
Personal goal setting is a powerful tool for setting a course for a meaningful and fulfilling life. The process of personal goal setting in itself is powerful enough so that if you are going through with the process you might think that your lifes meaning or purpose had been found. But it is not. The euphoria is only a result of your self finally realizing that you are on the right track.
For some, the process itself is motivating. Once you have found a way of making this a habit, you will soon realize that achieving your goals that look like impenetrable walls in the past is nothing but a purpose that needs a set of personal goals as the key.
Personal goal setting: what should be set?
Since there is more to life than the four letters that it represents, personal goal setting involves a review of all the aspects of your life, and all of these should have a corresponding goal. But before going to the process of setting up goals, you must have one general goal that encompasses all the other goals. In fact the other and smaller goals should work in the service of this large goal of yours.
1 Career. What aspect of your career do you think needs an improvement? Or perhaps, ask yourself, is it time for a new career?
2 Outlook or attitude. Is there a part of you, particularly on how you perceive things, that needs to be changed?
3 Financial. Do you have a clear projection as to how much you should be earning in a particular moment in your life? This aspect is closely related with career, so better review and come out with a goal with these two side by side.
4 Potential development. Perhaps some of your talents and skills need an improvement, or are maybe already clamoring for an improvement. Life, after all, is discovering your potential and developing it in the process.
5 Academic. Perhaps you are no longer getting any mental stimulation lately. Maybe your education related goals have expired many years ago. Perhaps it is time to go back to school for another degree, or engage in some thought provoking activities.
6 Family. What is your idea of a family? Getting married, having and raising kids? When? How?
7 Social involvement. Perhaps you want to help achieve something that would make the world a better place? Perhaps you are into animal protection, environmental concerns, and human rights issues?
These are just some aspects that generally come to mind when it comes to personal matters. If you feel or think that this list is not enough, or does not fit well with you, you may add or change it. Remember, personal goal setting is what its name is, a personal task. It is all up to you to device it and make it happen.
This article has just scratched the surface as far as goal setting is concerned. There is a lot more information out there in such places as the local library, the local bookstore, and also there are a number of very helpful Blogs on this subject.

The Top Thing You Should Have When You Take a Professional Development Training Program

admin — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 16:18:29 +0000

Professional development takes on more meaning than just improving your business-related skill set or adding a new professional skill set. If your thoughts, beliefs and habits don’t support you in taking your profession to the next level, it doesn’t matter how many new skills you learn. You can read in many best-selling books that your beliefs certainly do influence and ultimately create your experiences. This is why it is important to take a holistic approach to professional development training.

What are some of the benefits to taking a holistic approach to professional development?

1) You develop all areas of your life without leaving one part to slow down the development in other areas of your life.

Think of a wheel that is divided into 8 sections. Each section represents one part of your life. The amount of development in that area of your life is represented by how much that section is filled. The optimum condition is to have each section developed to the maximum to form a perfect circle with no chunks missing or dents. The wheel rolls smoothly, which represents how smoothly your life runs. As more and more areas of your life are unevenly developed, the wheel becomes massively dented and the ride is extremely bumpy, sometimes throwing the rider completely off track. Supplementing your professional skills with inner developmental skills allows you to develop at a more even pace.

2) You progress with your professional development at a faster rate.

Inner beliefs and thoughts that are discovered which do not support you in taking your skills to the next level will get in the way of using newly learned skills to increase your revenue. This is especially important for entrepreneurs and business owners who want to use the economic slowdown to get extra skills. If entrepreneurs are overriding their newfound skills with a lot of self-criticism, or a lot doubt, it might have well been as if the entrepreneur hadn’t taken any skills training at all. There is a saying out there called Death By Doubt?, which erases any gains an individual is striving to make.

What is one of the best ways to take a holistic approach to your professional development training?

The most efficient way to progress with your training is to become aware of your beliefs and thoughts. There are many tools and systems out there that assist you in being able to become aware of your subconscious thoughts. This is the only way you can change the beliefs that will keep you from moving forward because you can change what you don’t acknowledge and you can’t acknowledge what you are not aware of. There are also a number of tools and self paced courses that help you to change your thoughts and beliefs from destructive to constructive patterns.

When you are searching the market for these types of self paced personal transformation courses, you will want to make sure your course is able to do the following:

1) It works directly at the subconscious level for rapid replace destructive beliefs with constructive ones.

2) It gives you a consistent process that is easy to follow and easy to work into your daily routine.

3) It gives you an understanding of the very subtle concepts of how we keep ourselves from taking the maximum advantage of newly learned skills that you aren’t aware of because they are so subtle. Becoming aware of these subtle concepts increases the speed of changing your beliefs.

In order to make the most of your professional development training and not get caught in the cycle of taking course after course after course without making more than a minor difference in your life, you need to take a holistic approach to your professional development. That includes working on inner beliefs and thoughts as well as increasing your external skill set. Be sure your holistic approach allows you to quickly become aware of unsupportive beliefs and thought patterns so you can move forward as quickly as possible.

Personal and professional development for staff development leading to more effective employee development

admin — Sat, 26 Dec 2009 16:14:21 +0000

Career Mentoring Institute has recently upgraded its website to offer a personal and professional development program to the market. This program has wide scope and applicability. It’s particularly useful for organizations. It aids staff development for more effective employee development for organizations to help in personal and professional development of their people and at the same time lifts the productivity of the organization.It’s likely that history’s verdict on the collapse of the economy will be that the collapse will clear the way for a new era based around the repair of the repair of the Earth’s ecology. This will be a more complex economy dependent upon advanced design and operating processes. It will demand far more from us all. It makes sense for organizations to be involved in the personal and professional development of their people so that they will be able to meet the new demands.Broadly speaking personal and professional development is about enhancing one’s abilities to do one’s work. At the heart of personal and professional development is the individual’s interest in lifelong learning and increasing skills and knowledge. To be fully effective life long learning needs to be built into the very fabric of the way one acts in day to day ordinary mundane activities.There are three types of skills and knowledge:

The Career Mentoring Institute’s personal and professional development package concentrates on the personal and interpersonal capacities. Beyond a certain point seldom do people stumble in the technical areas. It’s the personal and interpersonal areas where things generally come unstuck and come unstuck they do very often. The widespread existence of the “Peter Principle” is testimony to the fact that things come unstuck.The Career Mentoring Institute’s personal and professional development package is aimed at providing people with the tools to grow and develop their personal and interpersonal capacities. In doing so they will be much more effective in the workforce as well as better at partnering, parenting and more creative and effective in the wider social world. The Five Step program’s steps are as follows:

1. Matching talents and interests with a field of work in the new emerging conditions; where it will not be business as usual. This is hardly a world shattering first step, but we are astonished at how many people are doing work and engaged in activities that do not match their talents or interests. This step has important implications for determining a person’s career options, and in making decisions on their career options that is linked into the other four steps in the personal and professional development program.

2. Charting a life and career path through the different levels of complexity of their chosen field of work and industrial sector, and what it will mean to deepen the qualities and capacities that will be needed to deal with increased complexity. We help people identify the different levels of complexity in their life path and field of work and also help them build goals to navigate your career path;

3. Creating a plan that involves developing their technical, psychological and interpersonal qualities that are required in today’s world. This is the key step in personal and professional development plan as its focus are qualities hidden by the seven secrets of the modern workplace. These are the qualities that successful people know about and use to achieve success, but which they seldom reveal. These will be explained in more detail shortly.

4. Step 4 recognizes that life in the twenty first century makes six demands on all of us concerned with how we define our relationship to our work, our family life and our broader social relationships, and includes issues like having a vision, pursuing mastery and excellence and having an inner standard to judge performance. Each of these demands also imposes major psychological challenges that personal and professional development must help people to meet.

5. Step 5 is concerned with a person’s level of awareness. They will learn that we all go through different stages of awareness and that we have the potential to expand the way we define different aspects of our lives. Successful people know that they need to expand their awareness in order to deal with the ever increasing complexity of life in this era. This is particularly important at this time when many of the certainties that we have lived by have broken down.

The five steps provide the most comprehensive set of tools for the personal and interpersonal dynamics of personal and professional developed ever developed to help people excel in the most challenging and demanding period ever faced by human kind.The core segment of the Career Mentoring Institute’s personal and professional development package to aid staff development for more effective employee development is concerned with helping people develop the capacities hidden by what we call the seven secrets of modern life.The seven secrets are about:• Matching your talents and your interests with a field of work and industrial sector that is compatible with your talents and interests. This is the first of the five steps and is incorporated as part of the seven secrets; • Responding in real time to the challenges you face in the most effective way possible. It’s a major advantage to be able to respond in the right way as events unfold. Most people recognize what they should have done when it’s too late. • Adopting the role of a player rather than a victim when life deals you one of those set backs that seem to be inevitable for us all; • Achieving emotional mastery, so that you can use the energy of the emotions constructively, and not be overwhelmed by emotions such as fear, anger or guilt; • Mastering crucial conversations where opinions differ, where the stakes are high and emotions run hot; • Negotiating by using the crucial conversation skills to seek common interests that everyone can sign up, and that results in the best decision where everyone is satisfied; • Acting with integrity by making and honoring your promises through commitment conversations; These bullets points do nothing more than summarize what is involved. On their own these bullet points don’t convey the transformational power that knowing and using the capacities the secrets hide involve, in leading to the creation of personal and professional development plans. In order to appreciate the transformational nature of the seven secrets we ask that you visit the home page of the site, and then register to receive a copy of a short ebook “The Truth of the Crash and a New Career Development Plan. This will then take you to a full statement about the transformations power of this five step program. We believe that you will truly appreciate how much peoples’ lives will be enhanced by learning and applying the seven secrets, and the other four steps, in their personal and professional development, and many other areas of their lives.

Four Positive Tools in the Toolbox for Success

admin — Fri, 25 Dec 2009 16:34:14 +0000

It seems pretty simple to set our goals toward success. Still, the process involves the use of many tools. A lot of people actually set out with a very poor toolbox in the beginning and they don’t reach the place they were hoping to reach. In order to have a winning plan for success in life, there are certain things that are just obvious, required tools that everyone should have if they hope to be successful person. At the top of the list is the ability to change your circumstances when you aren’t happy with the place you now exist. This requires the first tool known as courage.
If you plan to be successful in life, you have a choice to either accept your position or change it. You can’t decide to just plug along in your present condition hoping that someone else will change things for you. You have to create the opportunity in yourself to make a change and this requires courage. Often, people who are stuck in an abusive situation will feel as though they are trapped, controlled, and powerless to get out of that situation. They don’t realize that they have the same choice of changing their circumstances as anyone else. What paralyzes them is the fear of the unknown. They have become comfortable in their abusive situation and they don’t have the courage to break out of it. If you find yourself in circumstances that are obviously lowering your chance of success in life, then you need to change those circumstances. Courage is the first tool that will help you to begin.
After courage, there is another primary tool that you will need in your toolbox. The next major tool that is required is the willingness to persevere toward your goal.
Once you begin to apply the tool of courage, you will immediately be hit with a series of problems and difficulties in your new attempt to become successful. This is especially true in the first few weeks of your new direction in life. Because of this, you will also need the tool of willingness to persevere because courage may only last for a short time. Willingness, however, is a powerful tool that is even stronger than mere courage. It gives you the energy to keep fighting toward your success even in the face of difficulties and challenges. It gives you the ability to keep going no matter what.
Once you make it through those first few weeks on your new direction in life, you are going to need another tool that is even stronger than courage or willingness. You are going to need a solid plan that will be founded on your good sense and your capacity for reasoning and rationality. Courage is great and willingness is even better. These are great to begin with but a courageous attitude and striving ahead with the willingness to achieve success isn’t going to be enough. In order to get you to the top of the mountain, you are going to need more. Eventually, you will need a solid plan to keep you on track and to help you avoid all the difficulties you are going to encounter. You may develop a more rational and reasonable plan for success with a friend or by yourself but you are going to need that plan to be well thought out. Then you are going to have to go back and re-apply your willingness and your courage to put that plan back into action each day.
After a considerable period of time, working in a courageous manner with the willingness to persevere and to think reasonably and rationally in life, you will be well on your way to success. Many people make great strides in their life by simply applying these three tools for success.
What finally arrives as the cherry on the sundae, and which they eventually discover as the greatest tool of all, only comes after first going through the difficult times with courage, willingness and reasoning. Through the use of these three tools, a successful individual may eventually encounter the most powerful tool of Love and this tool may transform their life so as to make everything, which had previously seemed difficult, seem extremely easy and enjoyable.
Using the four tools of success, a person may eventually develop a toolbox which includes the greatest set of abilities a person can acquire. This toolbox filled with courage, willingness, reason and love will make a successful person of anyone and insure them of happiness and fulfillment in everything they do!

Boosting Mind Development With Brainwave Entrainment Technology

admin — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 16:13:30 +0000

The methods to boost mind development have been in abundance since advertising on TV exploded and early education became the fore front focus of many nations. Parents from all over the world were trying to figure out how to increase the capacities of their children with mind bending technology from proponents of child psychology, luminaries of calculation and mighty kings of memory retainment. The technology and the direction this was going was quite misguided, as in the end of the day what they were using were psychological tools and learning methods to ‘teach’ children how to improve their memory and utilise their brain much better than they already are.
Before that the only other alternatives to this was the use of hypnotism or meditative solutions to relax the mind and allow for affirmation to take place. This century and the decades that have passed beyond the previous one have brought to our attention brainwave technology and frequency states of the mind – which meant opening up a whole new chapter in mental learning and personal development. Science and medicine discovered that the brain existed in many different frequency states, evoked from electromagnetic pulses of the neurons in the brain communicating with each other.
Within these frequency ranges (with the highest to be measured at around 40 Hz, while each brain may differ from one another on the ranges and the peaks of the frequency) is the super states that we have been hearing so much about. Measurements have reached up to and even over 50% of the normal operating and mental capacities of individuals, and this is a conservative number of averages from the many subjects who have gone under clinical brainwave entrainment. Brainwave entrainment is the technology of inducing a frequency from the cortical in the cortex of the brain to achieve the same super states associated with the ranges.
For example, if you wanted to learn faster and retain more information, you would need to reshuffle your brain into the Alpha state, which is associated when you are very close to or within sleep – quite ridiculous when you are studying. You get all the benefits of the alpha state frequency range without the shortfalls, and the good thing is, you can evoke this state whenever you want to. This is led from the simple fact of the nature of brainwave entrainment technology, which is packaged in a CD and embedded into soothing music.
The regressive therapy is simply put to use by the means of turning on your CD player (or MP3 player, as some sites allow you to directly download brainwave entrainment tracks) and finding a receptive spot for you to listen to the music and programme your mind for a super state. Amazing is the word mostly used to describe this new technology and it is because anyone, from adults, retirees, students to even the young can begin boosting mind development with brainwave entrainment technology – a new era of mental and personal development.
