The Bridge of Time
Sorry to drone on, if you are a new reader please give yourself a little time to catch up. We will be now entering: The Bridge of Time.
Life is an exercise. I am your dance instructor. We are running through series of drills know for their precision. By allowing yourself to read highly technical data about a very esoteric subject, you are stepping out of your comfort zone. This is also what happens to people when you read for them. As you are reading for someone they will probably be shifting perspectives simply as a symptom of reflection. Having someone tell you unique things about yourself is usually an experience reserved for close friends, interviews or flirtation.Your pleasant rapport is going to be a little disorienting for people. Even your friends will notice your increased confidence of expression. You are learning to "READ" people. Presence is everything. (This is why I advocate the practice of voice training. Read ANYTHING out loud.)
Consider your clients needs. Let them ask the questions. The techniques you are learning aren't like anything they have ever seen before. The information you are reading from is just the front end of your assertions. You are in essence performing "SATSANG, (Hindu; personal time with a master)" it is a face to face consultation with a teacher. Your personal style is what makes this a real memorable experience. Don't hesitate to preview doing as much of the homework as you can, this kind of information will help to keep you talking when you are being interrogated. You should never run out of front end material. Behind the consultation process is a kind of time machine. Time may slow to a crawl or it can race so fast the client remembers none of it. You may have to go back, back into the past or you may need to jump into the distant future. You may also need to help decompress your clients reading before they stumble back out on to the street. Have basic details derived from standard books on your medium of choice. This will help make things more memorable. But don't be surprised if and when you see people staring blankly at you waiting for you to tell them what to do. Sometimes an hour is just to long. If your clients just aren't getting it, it isn't always your fault. You may want to discourage some people from patronizing you. If you have to explain yourself, this is often a good indication that the bridge of time is broken down. Don't waste your time, direct these clients elsewhere. It isn't anyones fault. It's just good business to encourage people to exercise the right of refusal. Don't let people use their money as a weapon. Your time is priceless.
"What was a wall, has become a window. What was once a door has now become a bridge beyond time and space."
