On occasion, I like to bring up ideas, exercises and concepts that some would consider to be a little woo woo, esoteric, or downright crazy. When I do this, I simply ask for your indulgence and suggest that even if something is unusual, it has potential to work wonders and give value. First a couple of questions: when you are dealing with another person--a client, a prospect, a child, a spouse, a romantic interest--how receptive are you to their energy? And how willing are you to imagine yourself becoming of one mind with that person? I've visited this idea in previous articles with An Ode to Vibration and Surrounding Ourselves with Pink Bubbles, and I'd like to revisit the idea of energy here. Energy is all about the language of the unconscious mind and the interconnectedness of all life. This is an interconnectedness with each other and with the divine (whether that be God or Buddha or whomever you worship). While on a coaching call recently, one of my private one-on-one calls with a very insightful student, he suggested this concept to me. I got to thinking about how this is exactly the sort of thing that advances and enhances persuasion skills. I completely understand that there is a very fine line of what some people can accept or will accept when it comes to esoteric knowledge. This will scare some off and will lure others. I most definitely understand this hesitation. My request of you: please push past this hesitation and receive this information in the spirit in which I'm giving it. Accept it if only to advance your persuasion skills. The student I was talking with described to me the metaphorical vehicle which he uses to create this energy. He said that he imagines a golden orb, an egg-like structure, which is situated over his head. This golden orb is a source of divine energy which flows through him, through his heart, and pours out into the individual whom he is connecting with and/or talking to. When he described this, it struck me as a beautiful way of interacting and it presupposes an intention of doing the highest good, working with the greatest amount of integrity for the benefit and happiness of everyone involved. All of this is the language of the unconscious. This is exactly the kind of thing that I think is perfect for what needs to be done. There is an immense value in this sort of exercise for us as persuaders. You are not asking the other person to change or interfering with their will, but you are changing your response to what is going on. As a result, your prospect, friend, child, romantic interest, business associate, boss, employee. . . whomever, will most likely follow and you will find yourself having a greater capability with them. By doing this you've expanded the persuasion field giving yourself greater reach. So much of what persuasion is originates and emanates from us. It is controlled by us more so than most people would believe because most persuaders think that the control lies with the person we're persuading and it really is more within us than anything. All of the exercises I've written about, from the unconscious hello, to surrounding ourselves with pink bubbles, to the way we set our intention, to the power of vibrations, to this golden orb. . . all of them point to the fact that persuasion is under our control. One more time: Persuasion is under our control.
