Time
for intuition training!
To
build you your physical body, you go to the gym and
you workout. You push yourself through exercises and
challening repetitions. It works the same way with your
psychic powers -- your connection with your intuition
can also be strengthened through practice and exercise.
To
build your psychic and intuitive strength, I recommend
what I call Brain Aerobics. These are simple
exercises that are a whole lot more fun than push-ups
but equally valuable in building up your psychic muscle.
For example:
Practice
going with your first impression. Give
yourself ten seconds to read a menu and make your choice.
When you decide what to wear or select a movie, go with
our first thought and stop second-guessing yourself
or spending too much time in decision making.
|
EXERCISE:
Imagine
you and a friend are dining out.
Select
a Menu: give yourself 10 seconds to order
Practice
Three Times!
|
|
|
Practice
your ability to make predictions. Predict
who is calling when the phone rings -- don't struggle
to reason it out -- just relax and let your mind suggest
a name. Predict what your next conversation will be
about. When you're about to meet someone, predict what
they will be like. Predict the outcome of the big game,
such as SuperBowl, The World Series or any weekend sports
event -- forget all those statistics and just relax
and see what your mind tells you about it.
|
EXERCISE
Predict
how many points the stockmarket will go up OR
down tomorrow. Pick three stocks and predict the
same.
Predict
how many points the stockmarket will go up OR
go down next week.
|
|
Go
with your first impressions!
|
Try
keeping score of your intuition and psychic impressions.
Most of us mentally register our first impressions and
opinions. After meeting someone for the first time,
we might try to describe their character from the few
impressions of the intitial meeting. Or we might do
some guessing about their professions, their family
backgrounds, or their marital status. I suggest you
add to those natural impressions a little documentation.
Write down our guesses -- your intuitive guesses. Refer
back to those notes later. Pay attention to the refining
and developing of your psychic and intuitive skills.
|
EXERCISE
Take
a moment and describe your classmates; their marital
status, how many children; personality traits,
favorite food... be detailed.
Describe
what a co-worker will wear tomorrow. Be detailed.
What color shirt or blouse, etc.
*
First write down your impressions; share your
thoughts with classmate(s) via the messageboard
or via
MSN Instant Messenger.
|
|
Go
with your first impressions!
|
You
won't always be right -- but you'll fun at it and, gradually
you'll begin to recognize some trends and characteristics
about the most effective methods of communicating via
psychic and intuitive channels -- the inner power that
belongs to you.
Remember
to respond quickly. Your first impression is likely
to be your most accurate impression. Second thoughts
may make you wonder -- but the long term will bear out
the wisdom your psychic and intuition will if you'll
just set it free to experience.
Learn
to trust your psychic impressions and intuitive signals.
Intuition is a natual mental faculty. It can do you
no harm, only good!
*This
is a good time to meet other classmates during this
online course. Go the message board and introduce yourselves
and experiment a bit. Relax. Play it out. Don't worry
if your not right all the time. You're learning to develop
your psychic abilities.

THE
INTUITIVE EDGE
Why
use intuition?
A
University of Texas professor, Weston Agor, believes that
"intuitive decision makers are especially effective
when new trends are emerging, when interpersonal judgement
is valued and when it is necessary to challenge assumptions."
Agor is right. Unless you're the boss' own child,
you got your job because of your brain and it's unqiue
abilities -- not because you have a warm body that could
occupy space.
When
you stop to think about it, your intuition is really
what you were hired for. That's right. If a computer
could do everything required for your job, you can be
sure that your company would not be paying you all those
fringe benefits. Computers can run rings around us when
it comes to storing data, processing data, and moving
data around. But computers with wisdom and judgement
and intuition... are not yet on the market. You are
still needed to use your human intuition to focus the
blind power of the computer.
Intuitive
people are very valuable commodities, especially when
a problem arises that cannot be clearly defined and
has no familiar method for solving it. In such times,
a person who will listen to his or her intuitive voices
holds the innovative key to the solution.
Success
stories of intuitive people
Eleanor
Friede is a good example. In 1970, Elearnor Friede was
an editor for Macmillian publishing in New York City.
One weekend, she sat on the deck of her Long Island
beach house reading a manuscript for a children's book
that two dozen publishing houses had already rejected.
Eleanor felt the book was entirely believable as a story
for adults, not children.
On
Monday, Eleanor returned to work and tried to sell her
bosses on the idea. Everyone laughed. The book just
did not meet the criteria that they all accepted as
essential. They started referring to the book as "Friede's
Folly."
Eventually,
Macmillian agreed to print 7,000 copies. To the surprise
of everyone but Eleanor Friede, the book became an international
best seller -- selling ten million copies 27 languages.
Were it not for Eleanor Friede's attentiveness to her
intuition, we would never have had a chance to read...Jonthan
Livingston Seagull!
Eleanor
Friede was relying on what gamblers call a hunch. She
felt that the author, Richard Bach, had told a powerful
story but was aiming at the wrong market. Because Eleanor
had the courage of her convictions -- because
she listend to her intuition, she and her company, and
all of us are richer today.
A
researcher at the FDA whose name I do not know, demonstrates
that intuition can be more than a matter of good luck
or good profits. It can be a matter of life and death.
Twenty
years ago, this chemist was testing a new fertility
drug for the Food and Drug Adminstration. The drug had
gone through a battery of tests and had passed every
one with flying colors. Even so, the young chemist felt
that something was wrong, something just didn't feel
right about the drug.
She
went back to her supervisor and shared her doubts. She
said, "I cannot prove what I am feeling. All
the test say that the drug should be approved -- but,
I just don't feel right about passing it."
This
researcher had a wise supervisor. He said, "if
your instinct tells you something, there must be reason
for it. Trust yourself!"
The
young woman went back to her paperwork and stamped "Rejected"
on the forms andsent them back to the pharmaceutical
company.
Less
than nine months later, that researcher's doubts were
justified. The drug she had been testing was Thalidomide
-- a fertility drug that was later found to cause birth
defects. The women who took Thalidomide in other countries
did fidn that the drug helped them to conceive. But,
in most cases their babies were born without arms or
legs or diasastrously deformed.
That
researcher stood firm against logic -- against scientific
proof against the facts. If she had not listened to
her intuition,k it is almost certain that thousands
more women would have ingested Thalidomide and given
birth to babies with twisted limbs and missing fingers.
"The
90s -- The Intuition Era"
John
Mihalsasky and Douglas Dean, the authors of Executive,
the authors of Executive ESP, researched the
intuitive and psychic abilities of corporate presidents
and CEOs. What do you think they found? They
found a significant positive correlation between the
precognitive abilities of company presidents
and the profits of their companies. Intuitive leadership
is profit leadership!
Robert
Jenseon, the former chairman of General Cable Corporation,
once told Fortune magazine about a time when he was
faced with making five decisions worth $300 million
dollars. Jenson said, "On each decision, the
mathematical analysis only got me to the point where
my intuition had to take over."
Philip
Goldberg, author of The Intuitive Edge, quotes
Henry Kissinger's description of the two-edged sword
of playing your hunch. "The dilmemma of any
statesman," said Kissinger, "is that
he can never be certain about the provable course of
events. In reaching a decision, he must inevitably act
on the basis of an intuition that is inherently unprovable."
Going
out on a limb and saying what you feel can be difficult
in any organization. Research indicates that executives
who have high intuitive powers are likely to de-emphasize
their flashes of insight. As one CEO put it: "Even
though I know the right answer instinctively -- it is
usually wise to dress up an intuitive decision in a
suit -- to make it acceptable."
But
the situation is changing. Intuition is gaining respectability
and finding proper respect in the corporate decision
process. According to Success magazine, amjor
corporations such as Hanover Insurance, Polaroid, and
Pillsbury have consulted psychics.
Kentucky
Fried Chicken tycoon, the late Colonel Sanders, was
known to have welcomed a psychic to sit in on boardroom
discussions and to provide insight into shareholder
matters.
One
stock broker and vice president for investments with
the former Dean Witter Reynolds, frequently relies on
psychic information to bolster his business judgements,
a mfact he openly shares with his clients. he claims
his psychic is right on about 80 percent of the time
with predictions of stock market fluctuations.
Obviously,
these companies don't blindly obey everything their
psychics might tell them. But as one executive said,
"Every bit of information helps in the decision
making!"
Intuitive
power is certainly a likely star on the corporate horizon
of the 21st century. In fact, my intuitiov about the
21st century is that it will become known as the decade
of "The Intuition Era" of business.
We will continue to see an unprecendented level of acceptence
with programs developed to help corporations identify
and hire workers with natural and developed intuitive
abilities.
Intuition
isn't perfect -- psychic ability isn't 100% accurate
all the time.
Don't
let me oversell you on the powers of intuition and psychic
abilities. Intuition isn't always right. Psychic impressions
aren't always 100% accurate. In fact, if there is one
thing that has confused the public's perception about
psychic phenomena, it's the assumption that if you claim
to be in touch with your psychic side, you are claiming
to omniscient -- to know everything.
It's
the old cliche question: "If you're so smart,
why aint' ya rich?" Or, "If you're
psychic why can't you pick the winning lottery numbers?"
"Why aren't you on Wall Street making thousands
day-after-day-after-day?"
To
be perfectly frank, psychic information has occasionally
steered me to the right stock, the perfect real estate
investment -- but, psychic and intuitive powers is a
gift intended fo rmore important works than doing party
tricks or making big bucks.
Sometimes
when people find out that I've been married and divorced,
they respond "Aha! How come you didn't know in
advance that your marriage was going to end in divorce?"
You
should see the looks on their faces when I answer that
I did know. "But then, why did you do
it?" they want to know. And I have a chance
to explain two every important factors of psychic knowledge.
One...I could have been misunderstanding or misreading
my vision of my future. And two...there are a lot of
valuable lessons to be learned in life...even through
the disapointment of divorce.
Intuition
isn't always right. Psychic impressions aren't always
going to be 100% accurate. Or maybe it's more accurate
to say, "We humans do not always receive, nor
interpret our intuitive messages, our psychic visions
with accuracy and precision."
Many
parapsychologists and myself believe that raw intuitive
and psychic information is indeed 100% accurate. It's
our ability or inability to interpret these visuals,
feelings. Much can skew the message instantly by our
desires. For instance, you dream of winning the lottery.
You purchase lottery tickets -- carefully tunining-in
to see predict the winning numbers. Now -- see how wishful
thinking already taints the true intuitive and psychic
information?
It
is true that the psychic vision, intuitive vibe will
be accurate, but our ability to understand it may be
lacking. Let me give you another example. Working on
my second book("Into The Future, The Next Millennium"),
I made a prediction while under hypnosis that the
United States and Russia would merge. I based that
prediction on a clairvoyant picture that I received...which
was the United States flag with the Russian hammer and
sickle in the middle of the US stars. I took that visual
to mean that the two countries would merge or create
a new partnership. Of course, we know now what that
psychic visual really meant. If I had been better read
on international politics, I probably would have correctly
interpreted the independence of the Soviet Union.
The point is, the psychic visual was accurate. But it
was human limitation on intrepretation that skewd the
message.
A
person's intuition can be strong in one domain and weak
in another. A doctor whos intuitive judgements in surgery
take him far beyond normal surgical skill, may at the
same time, follow all the wrong hunches in his business
investments.
Or
maybe you have a known a truly intuitive personnel director,
someone who has a sixth sense about putting the
right employee in the right job... but whose ability
to choose friends or lovers is notoriously poor.
Psychics
have strengths and weaknesses as well. And there is certainly
such a thing as a good day or a bad day for communicating
with your psyche. Circumstances can effective the intuitive
and psychic faculty. Just like other mental functions,
intuition and/or psychic power is stronger when we are
confident, motivated and deeply involved.
