Intuitively improving client relationships

Intuitively improving client relationships

Someone once referred to the Silva course as "a course in human relationships." That's really what it is when you stop and think about it:

*We are able to communicate mentally with other people. Students in the first half of the course learn how to mentally ask their professor for the correct answer to a test question.

*We are able to sense how other people feel, to "walk a mile in the other person's moccasins" so to speak. We can actually detect their emotional state and experience it ourselves.

*We are able to mentally detect health problems that people have, and then program to correct those problems.

*We can "work a case" on a person's relationship with somebody else, determine where the problem areas are, and program to correct them.

All of those things can certainly help to improve human relationships.

And all of those things prove very valuable in agency work.

We work health cases on clients and prospective clients, and mentally correct any problems we detect. We do this whether we get their business or not. If we find out that they have a problem, we program to correct it. We don't tell them we are doing this, because we are not doing it in order to get credit for it or to gain business as a result of doing it. We do it because we can, and it is the right thing to do.

We do find benefits, of course. We find that it is easier to resolve differences with clients. We find that we can settle disagreements more easily. We are more forgiving of one another when we make mistakes. And the work we do for our clients benefits because as a result.

Relax, it's good for you

Anyone who has ever been around public relations or advertising knows the stresses of deadlines, client expectations, uncooperative media contacts, unexpected catastrophes, long hours, the frustration of having your ideas rejected...you get the idea: It is a very stressful business.

And stress is at the root of many of the health problems that people experience.

Stress can harm your health, ruin your relationships, interfere with your ability to think clearly and make good decisions, and generally degrade the quality of your life.

So the first thing to do to protect your health is to relax occasionally.

But you say there isn't time to relax during your hectic day? And even if there were, how could you sit at your desk with your eyes closed while you spend fifteen minutes at your level? People would think you were sick, or goofing off. They would not understand that you are recharging yourself so that you will be more productive and get a lot more done.

Well I'm not going to let you get away with that excuse.

I am going to tell you how to do it. All you have to do is to use the room that your company built just for going to level and relaxing for a few minutes. What room is that? They call it...the "rest room."

Just go in there, close the door, and nobody will know what you are doing.

Be careful not to do what one of our graduates did. He was an officer with a major corporation, and said that they had meetings every afternoon, and he always ended up with a headache by the time the meeting ended. After he took the course, he simply went to the rest room and went to level. He would get rid of the headache, and then relax for a while, and program for the rest of the day to go smoothly.

One day he fell asleep while doing that. Worse...he fell off the seat. "Can you imagine trying to explain that to the other people in the executive wash room?" he asked.

So...remember to program yourself to remain awake, and you won't have that problem.

You can use your level to correct any problem, and reach any goal, as long as your goals are of a constructive and creative nature. And that's what the agency business is all about.
