Magic and advanced technology, it is said, are indistinguishable from each other. But the use of technology and science have been used to learn things about the world around us. And we’ve accomplished what was once thought of as being impossible, a few centuries ago. Think of space flights and the first man walking on the moon. There is also the exploration of the deepest parts of the ocean which was only possible using recent technology. Energy can now be created from natural sources, water, wind and the sun. And don’t forget the cell phone, which gives us the ability to speak with anyone, worldwide.

Is it really too much to believe in the possibility of a telepathic individual? Surely it is possible for someone to simply develop mental properties which others don’t have, even if we don’t understand how they do it.

Parapsychology or paraphysic is the scientific investigations of telepathic individuals. Scientist who investigate and experiment get answers to their questions on telepathy. Even if the answer they do get are not quite what they are looking for.

Individuals who are Telepathic and subjects of experiments have however produced less than desired results for telepathy to be proven scientifically. The results of tests must be consistent, repeatable and measurable. Results can’t always be duplicated because they are inconsistent. Some would say that this proves that individuals aren’t Telepathic, but to others it proves we have a lot to learn to understand and need more developed procedures for testing for telepathy.

How can a person be Telepathic? Without the use of other senses, telepaths use their minds and how can they do this? This is not understood completely and is one that doesn’t use the sense of taste, smell, hearing and touch. Nevertheless it does exists. This can already be done artificially. Radio waves are invisible and you can’t see, smell or touch them, but they are real.

Many scientists are now investigating the concept of ‘thought waves’? These are possibly electrical or magnetic fields generated by the brain and these have been scientifically proven to exist. Explaining this in terms for the average person might be a little difficult, but stay with us.

The thoughts of a human is a biochemical process. The process of nervous impulse being transferred from one neuron to another. This transfer of nervous impulses creates an electrical current – minute, but it can be measured. This current generates a very small magnetic field where the brain has thousands of these synapses firing.

Can humans use these bio-magnetic and bio-electric fields to communicate? Are the magnetic and electrical waves carrying content or is it meaningless static? Can mental training control brain waves? Meditation, controlled thoughts, can these techniques possibly be used in shaping brain waves, like these, into significant communication?

Does it mean telepathy exists if we call an individual ‘telepathic’? Most people do not believe this to be true. They simply do not believe it to be real and dismiss the idea as science fiction or mysticism. We live everyday with computers (all kinds) and cell phones. These items all use invisible waves, in the air, to function and people travel daily, thousands of people, in computer controlled jets.

Is there any way the electrical and magnetic fields of the human brain can be boosted? Perhaps. Sometimes for example, during a heightened emotional state (such as pain, shock, fear, or feeling endangered), more neural synapses fire simultaneously, temporarily creating a spike in bio-electrical and bio-magnetic brain waves.

Parapsychology researchers documented brief periods of Telepathic communication. Instances such as a parent (usually a mother) when her child has been hurt when miles from each other. Is there a connection between the spiking of such brain activity and communication telepathically? Do two individuals, related to each other, play a part in telepathy? Or coincidence?

There is too little scientific evidence to prove telepathy exists and there is still doubt. This is changing and there are more and more studies being conducted by scientists to show there are telepathic humans. With proper instruction and guidance this gift can be developed among the human population.

An award can be made from any one of several types of crystal, or even a combination of types; it all depends on the intended style. The most commonly used by far is optic crystal, sometimes also referred to as optical, crystal. Optic crystal differs from lead crystal in that no lead oxide is used in its manufacture. Bubbles and other imperfections are removed during the manufacturing process by subjecting the molten crystal to immense amounts of pressure. The end result are sheets of crystal, suitable to be used in the creation of solid form awards such as sculptures and wall plaques. Optic crystal is known for its clarity, hardness and the fact that it is one hundred percent lead free.

Black optic crystal, used largely to form base pieces for other sculptures and figurines, is made by introducing special additives during the manufacturing process.

Starfire is another type of lead-free crystal manufactured in a similar process. This crystal is known for its slight blue tint. There is some dispute amongst connoisseurs, however, as to whether or not Starfire should be considered a real crystal due to its lack of perfect clarity.

Jade crystal falls into the same family, and has a somewhat greenish tint. This crystal type is quite often used in the design of corporate awards.

When people think of crystal, they most often envision gorgeous glasses that emit a clear ringing note when delicately tapped with the tines of a fork. The type of crystal that they actually have in mind is called ‘full lead crystal’, and is named for the lead oxide used in its manufacture. Lead oxide has been used to eliminate bubbles and other defects since crystal was first created. Full lead crystal is still blown by teams of glass makers, giving it a greater flexibility in form and design than optic crystal. Awards shaped as bowls, vases and figurines are made using it.

Only crystal that contains a minimum of 24% lead oxide is considered to be “full lead”.

Two and three-dimensional etched images are another form of award currently gaining in popularity. These thoroughly stunning and lifelike images are made by focusing a laser so that it will create a microscopic crack deep inside of the crystal. Because it is not possible to draw a continuous line, the laser must be repositioned and the process repeated hundreds of thousands of times in order to complete the image. Only absolutely bubble and flaw-free crystal can be used in the making of one of these awards, or the laser may not be able to accurately hit its target and the image will be ruined. The surface must also be completely flat, making it very difficult, but not impossible, to create an etching inside of a sphere or other irregularly shaped piece of crystal.

A crystal award is a beautiful memento that is sure to be treasured for years to come.

But what is lucid dreaming and how does one do it? What are the benefits of being in the drivers seat for these nocturnal journeys? Keep reading to find out more about the practice of dream control.

What Is Dream Control?

Dream control, using lucid dreaming, means that not only are you fully aware that you are dreaming, but that you’re also able to control what happens during the dream. While totally asleep, you realize that what seems to be going on is actually a dream and you are solely in control of the events that play out as well as the final outcome.

For those suffering from frequent nightmares, this simple but powerful method may serve to be just the thing they need to finally enjoy a restful night’s sleep.

Common Techniques For Inducing Lucid Dreaming

A newer and very effective method of bringing about lucid dreaming is binaural audio. Binaural audio involves listening to two different frequencies at the same time. The effect of this listening is to tune the listeners brainwaves into the proper frequency to achieve the state needed for lucid dreaming, REM sleep.

Prior to the advent of binaural audio technology, now available on CDs and DVDS, meditation and self hypnosis were used to bring about dream control. While these methods are indeed effective, it can take a considerable amount of time to become expert at these techniques.

Other than these methods, many others have been used by psychologists and sleep researchers. However the mind is trained to assert dream control, the object is the same; to enable the dreamer to realize that they are dreaming and to begin taking the reins of their dreams.

This training begins while you are still awake. The goal is to remember to perform some kind of cue which will remind us that we are dreaming; this allows dream control to begin.

You may be able to do this by simply telling yourself as you are falling asleep that in your dream, you will do or say something and then you will know that you are dreaming. Once you know that you are dreaming, lucid dreaming has begun.

This particular method to dream control is referred to as MILD, or mnemonic induction of lucid dreams, which was discovered by scientist Dr. Stephen LaBerge. With this approach, your brain is then in complete control as to what occurs in the dream, meaning that nothing could or would come of harm to you as it’s simply all in the mind and you are only limited by your own imagination.

Another means of achieving lucid dreaming is by keeping a dream diary or journal, using a small notebook and pen kept by your bedside to write down everything you can remember in the minutes after waking up. After doing this for a few nights, you’ll start to notice being able to remember what you’ve written and have a similar dream in which you can then begin to control what happens.

When you know how to use dream control, you can dismiss your nightmares and have incredible experiences which would never be possible in the physical world; you can go anywhere and do anything that your imagination can conceive!

The experts say do that there is, however, one potential drawback to lucid dreaming, as much like anything in life, too much of a good thing can actually have the opposite effect. The main reason for this being that one of the most valuable aspects of dreaming ‘naturally’ is that it often tell us important things about ourselves that otherwise would have remained hidden forever. So enjoy dreaming lucidly. It really is an amazing experience, but remember to give yourself a few nights off!

There are many diverse kind of goals you can establish for yourself. Some of the common ones are financial, health, spiritual, & family. They are all important goals that you should try to succeed at. The problem is that many people will set them, but never meet them.

The type of goals that you should set will be a determination of your own life and where you are at that point. No matter where you are you should be setting some goals that will allow to you to truly have success and better your life. Whatever your goal is you need to establish a deadline to complete it in and work you way towards that.

Many people set goals at the start of a new year. It is the start to a new year and allows someone a fresh start at what they desire. These are usually referred to as resolutions. You can set these resolutions anytime of the year. Just because it is new years does not mean that is when you have to set goals. it is merely a common starting point. But again, if you are lucky enough you will be able to keep those resolutions for a few weeks before you do something that might screw them up and then you give up and not focus on it anymore.

Being accountable for your goals is very important as well. You must have someone in your life that you can share these goals with and they will hold you to them. This can be anyone from a spouse to a friend or even a business partner. Accountability is important because without that you are more likely to fail and quit when things get tough. This person will help you stay on track and be focused.

The action that you take on your goals must happen immediately. You will not have success in life if you do not take action now and begin your journey. Begin working your way to achieving your goals now, do not wait. This one decision to take action now can help you succeed.

Randy Disert can help you with setting personal goals and achieving the results you want. He has helped many people achieve great wealth and happiness. Let him guide you along the way.

Just take your mind back to when you started to learn to drive. That very first time, you pressed your foot down on the throttle. The engine screamed. You lifted your left foot off the clutch with such panache, and you hurled forward with such velocity, you would have beaten any kangaroo.

Can you drive now? Then we rest our case:

Anything that’s worth doing, is worth doing poorly.

Do you remember the first time you played tennis? Did you really get the serve right first time? Or did you carefully throw the ball in the air throw the racket and miss!!! What about now? Was it worth doing it poorly the first time around?

What happened the first time you strode up with your bucket of balls on the driving range? You put the ball down and swung perfectly and hit it for what 500 yards?????? Or, did you: 1. miss it completely, 2. follow through and fall over 3. take out a good portion of the matting or grass with the shot 4. hit it with such force it managed a few yards and stopped.

What is all this about?

Reminding yourself that;

Whenever you do something you haven’t done before. Whenever, you make effort to break an old habit. Whenever you are going to do something that is worth doing.

The odds are you are going to make a hash of it. Don’t give in. You are normal. Don’t listen to that critical voice inside your head that says, “It’s no good. I can’t do it. I will never, ever try again”.

Listen instead to the powerful, self confirming voice that says, “It’s OK. Remember. Anything that’s worth doing, is worth doing poorly” And laugh and keep going.

So, whether your aim is to give up smoking diet.. stop drinking..change your job, learn a language, build a business, whatever it is, accept that you are going to do it poorly at first. Then gradually with practice you will get better and better.

It takes effort to improve yourself. It takes effort to become the best sales person in town. It takes effort to build a successful business. It takes effort to lose weight. It takes effort to follow your dream.

But. If you want to improve yourself! ..If you want to learn a new skill.. There is only one way to start..Overcome your need to be right first time and keep practicing.

So whatever you want to do. Whatever you dream of being! Whatever you see yourself doing in five years time. It all starts with making a fool of yourself now. So you might as well get on with it. Go on, go for your dream!

Remember: Anything that’s worth doing, is worth doing poorly.

Good luck.

Every one of us has this power, but most of us don’t think we have the capability to use it. In fact, it’s been shown that we humans only use about 10% of our brainpower, but think about that for a minute. Isn’t that crazy? We usually find something that’s simple, and then stick with it. And in fact, that’s why so many of us struggle with life. Our thoughts are negative because we don’t think that what we want can truly be ours. So what this means is that we continue to attract negativity to us, which of course plays itself right out in front of our eyes.

But here’s the simple truth. Reality first happens within your mind. Everything you’ve gotten to this point has been as a result of how you think. And while it’s been said that everyone has some extra sensory skill or power, or that they are ‘psychic,’ in fact, these people really only practice an ability we have, too, which is using their advanced mind power capabilities. If you want something in life, you have to think that you can have it. And of course, if you think only the bad is going to happen, then that’s what you’ll end up with, too.

You can begin to increase your mind power to the positive. One of the ways you can do this is by using visualization. This is a very intense technique that will help you tap into your mind’s current power. It may actually help you flip the switch in terms of gaining more power.

When you visualize, simply sit down and create pictures and images in your mind’s eye. This can help you a manifest these images in reality. First, though, you have to start with your subconscious. The subconscious mind is the most powerful tool you have, and bring what is in your subconscious mind into reality the way nothing else can. However, the drawback to this is that you have to think positive in order to have positive things come to you. Therefore, it’s best to ‘practice’ the way that you want to think and live before you actually try to do this.

One good way to start doing this is to write down everything you want on paper, as though you were telling a story (or if you can’t write, doing it as a checklist can be fine, too). Write down the goals you want to achieve, so that you have something to shoot for. Then, create the visions you have around those goals. When you write things down, they’re harder to simply dismiss later as so much fantasy and instead become more concrete. Do this several times a day until you begin to ‘live’ in the reality you are imagining.

You can also increase your mind power by doing affirmations. Affirmations are simply little pieces of encouragement that you give yourself as you go throughout your day. It can be a bit of positive encouragement about anything. For example, you can say that you’re going to lose 10 pounds in a month. Keep saying these positive things, and eventually, you’ll see that these things just begin to happen. And it doesn’t matter whether or not you’re used to it at first, either. If you do something for 28 consecutive days, like any habit, it’s going to become natural to you.

You can also use a technique called ‘brainwave entrainment’ to develop more mind power. This is just brainwave synchronization using different frequencies through audio technology. With this type of technology, your body has the ability to do several things. One of them is such a body can actually heal itself this way. You can make this even more powerful with this type of advanced technology in audio format. Other things you can do will enhance your memory and bring to the fore any existing psychic powers you already have. These different frequencies can do a lot to unearth your mind power. This type of procedure is pretty advanced, but it does work.

Hypnosis, too, can be used to tap into your subconscious mind. For example, hypnosis has worked wonders for those who want to quit smoking. These people simply are able to go into a session whereby they use the services of a trained hypnotist, and then they are slowly led to the suggestion that they don’t want to smoke anymore, that it tastes bad, it’s not something they desire, and so on. After several sessions, many smokers do indeed quit and they don’t have the desire to do so anymore. It’s pretty simple; they simply got someone who was trained in hypnosis to lead them through the mental blocks they had toward smoking, so that they could tap into their subconscious minds and ultimately quit.

So as you can see, everyone has this type of mind power, but they just have to believe in their abilities. It may not happen overnight, but you can change your life and turn things around if they’re not going so well for you. To do this, you have to be able to direct your energies into the universe and know that what comes back to you is what you have manifested. It all starts with your subconscious mind, and only you can harness the mind power you have. How much do you think you have?

Of course, we would like to be as high as possible on page one. A site that’s half way down page seven is unlikely to be bombarded with enquiries! No-one knows all the factors that Search Engines (SE’s) use to determine your rank. They don’t want us to know.

Because of this, much technical expertise has developed around the subject. And so we have on one side Google and Bing purposely patenting different technologies. (Which leads to much confusion of course!) On the other side you have an SEO industry. This involves measuring various factors and doing empirical tests to establish the most important ones to target.

SEO looks at two different aspects – one is Off Page and the other is On Page. In addition there are geographic and demographic factors, but SEO cannot control these. To understand factors relating to off-page, please see our additional editorial.

ON PAGE SEO Explained

On-Page SEO is all about changes you can make directly to a site to make it more Search Engine ‘friendly’. This is actually a fairly clear-cut process. It involves such factors as – Internal-linking, using H1 & H2 header tags, seeding keywords at the correct density (and in appropriate places,) and to some lesser degree, using meta-tags.

That might sound like gobbledy-gook, but don’t be alarmed! On-Page optimisation is now known to have the smallest affect on your page rank. In truth, many argue its relevance has disappeared altogether! In the past it was easy to affect Search Engines with on-page SEO. Not any longer though.

Having said that, if the website benefits from off page optimisation, then on page work should be looked at. When that’s happened, on-page factors can be optimised.

Things To Consider… A phrase that shows vast numbers of results should not be your first SEO target. ‘Car Insurance’ is a term to stay away from – unless you want to compete with 70,000,000 others! It’s not rocket science to realise that competing in this area wouldn’t be productive.

And Yet – When I search for “Southampton Car Insurance”, it comes down to a more manageable 300K. (If car insurance in Southampton was my business!) Though still large, this is a much more manageable figure.

Now my chances are significantly improved. In actual fact, it takes very deep pockets to get a premier listing for a term like ‘car insurance’. I would actually be competing with the insurance conglomerates! Which is really not a good idea.

It’s far better to choose phrases that are more specific to our offering. They’re known as long tail searches, because they’ll have several keywords. Phrases can be as many as seven words, depending on your competition. Generally we use 3 to 4 words.

We prefer to begin optimisation strategies with phrases that bring in less than five hundred thousand results. (In some cases, we may go with a higher count – if the current page 1 results are not well SEO’d.) We’ll automatically move up the ratings for the more popular search terms as we gain more back-links. If we’ve worked well, we can start hitting the bigger terms in a few months time. This strategy is also far more targeted at the start. Frankly, we’re only interested in the customers who are looking specifically for what we offer. There’s much more chance these people will buy!

Don’t just limit building back links to your website’s home page – link them up to various sub pages as well. We call this ‘deep-linking’ – and Google in particular likes this. For example, build links to the pages that group products. That’s because pages like this generally have links to several individual pages. Do not simply build links to your website’s home page. Search Engines are increasingly focused on the individual pages within a website.

Of course, with the media often running articles concerning celebrities who swear by it, more ordinary people are now wanting a slice of the cake as well. However, for many people, the question still remains, what are my chances of success?

In fact theoretically it works for everyone, but people who have not been successful do not realize that they are subconsciously sabotaging their cosmic order. You see whatever you think will happen really does happen!

The right to use the cosmic ordering service belongs to one and all, allowing everybody to get what they desire. Of course some people will point out that they have never had a desire to be ill or in financial difficulty and admittedly, they are right.

In order to understand this, we need to grasp the fact that the universe only understands positives. If for example, you say you have no desire to be ill; this is interpreted as negative, as you have directed the focus on bad health.

Change that desire around and say I am wealthy in both material wealth, health and happiness. The Universe totally understands the focus of this desire. You emphasize what you want not what you don’t want.

This is the area that many fail when they make affirmations or attempt to think positive. They see themselves as they are, not as they could be, and reaffirm their station in life instead of affirming the spot they should be and believing they are already received their cosmic order.

As we embark on our journey through life, our beliefs are often influenced by other people as well as different experiences. When we first started out in this life, we believed in ourselves and that all things were possible and now, we need to believe like that once more.

Right from birth, children are continuously taught just how wrong it is to want too much, or even how wrong it is to get too much. The fact is though, if this was a perfect world, our parents would have taught us that we do in fact deserve everything we want, without having to make huge sacrifices.

Of course, it would be wrong to think you can simply take from others, but on the other hand, it is absolutely correct to believe you can have anything you want. After all, there is enough to go around.

If you look around yourself, be happy for those who have more than you because really, it further strengthens the argument that there is enough wealth for all. Don’t begrudge others, because in so doing, you’ll only be reinforcing your own negative thoughts, once again directing focus to the negative rather than the positive.

The human brain can move a quark, the smallest particle we know of, simply by sending out waves of energy. This is not theory, but rather a fact which has been proven by modern science. Positive thinking releases positive energy and positive energy, gets positive results.

The most difficult aspect of this entire process is to free ourselves from all those entrenched beliefs. All those negative beliefs which are so firmly embedded in our memories have to be cleared away, and in order to achieve that, you’ll have to use every single tool available.

There are numerous tools but two which always spring to mind, are self-hypnosis and subliminal suggestion. Both these powerful tools avoid interference from the logical processes of our brain and instead, they go to work on our subconscious minds, the area in which our beliefs are embedded.

You can control your destiny by ordering exactly what you want. You have to be strong enough to believe that you’ll get it. Use techniques that help you reinforce your belief that the cosmic ordering system gives you everything you desire.

However, distance learning education is not without certain challenges. Traditional students are spurred on by the interaction with others and attending the lectures. Without a lot of discipline and intrinsic motivation, distance learners can easily get sidetracked by life and fail to keep up with the coursework needed to pass the class. Enjoy the benefits, but do not forget the responsibilities.

So, how can a distance learner overcome the challenges of shuffling work, school, and family? Creating and sticking to a schedule is the only way to survive and succeed. The trick is to apportion a 24 hour day to include enough time for the family, work, and school responsibilities. Thus, it is very important to let the family in on the plan, and when you should not be disturbed. Again, do not give into the temptation to deviate from the plan.

Getting yourself motivated is also essential towards distance learning education success. One of the ways to do this is to stay in contact with your classmates. With the internet today, it is often easy to stay in touch through email, instant messenger as well as internet phone. Discussing projects or assignments with your teammates will help you stay on track and keeps you and your teammates accountable for one another.

Also, do not forget to give yourself a pat on the back once in a while. Set up a calendar of specific goals. When the milestone is reached, reward yourself. Thus, it will be a source of encouragement and help in facing the inevitable hurdles presented by a distance learning education. In essence, it is nice to see and acknowledge personal progress.

Finally, a quiet place to study, away from distractions, is paramount. The television, telephone, and family will be very distracting and take away from quality study. Set times to not be disturbed. If necessary, lock yourself in a quiet room with adequate space to spread out on a table or desk. Sit in a comfortable chair and add any necessary elements to ensure an environment conducive to productive study.

Distance learning education is an excellent way to improve job skills while opening a door to new job opportunities. However, success depends on the individual. With hard work, determination and the discipline to stay on track and maintain good study habits, academic excellence is within sight, without relocating and sacrificing job and family.
