October 21, 2010, is Get to Know Your Customers Day. This day is a great opportunity and a great reminder to all small business owners that you must get to know your customers in order to offer the products and services they want. My five tips will help you get to know your customers and continue to provide the things they want as you continue to grow your business. You cannot grow your business without customers.

 

Five Tips So You Can Get to Know Your Customers

 

1. Survey - send a survey to your customers either through the email, snail mail or using social media. An anonymous survey will enable your customers to tell you what he or she really thinks without hurting your feelings if the person was asked to be honest in person. There are many free online survey services you can use to survey or send a poll to your customers.

 

2. Customer Appreciation Day - host a customer appreciation day. Make time on this day to spend time mingling with your customers and really getting to know him or her. You may offer refreshments, product or services discounts, training, or hold a drawing for a prize.

 

3. Pay Attention - when your customer is at the checkout counter or browsing in your store you can take a few minutes to engage him or her in conversation and learn more about him or her. Pay attention to see if the customer always buys the same beverage, dessert or color of an item. You also want to pay attention to nonverbal cues. Is the customer happy when he or she enters your business? Does he or she look around bewildered and confused? Does he or she turn up her nose and make a face? If you are seeing nonverbal communication that does not match the verbal communication ask the customer for clarification. He or she may just not be feeling well or he or she may smell something foul in your store. Again, ask for clarification and make time to get to learn about your customers buying habits.

 

4. Learn his or her name - learn the names of your regular or loyal customers. Greet them when they enter your small business by name. This will make him or her feel special and valued. He or she will know that his or her business matters to you and your business.

 

5. Actively Listen - when your customer asks if you carry a certain product do you write down the request? If you notice customers are asking for certain products or services you will want to start offering the product or service so that your customers stay loyal to you. Active listening also includes listening for the tone of how words are spoken. We can all say "fine" and have it means various things depending up on how we say it. We can say it sounding sad, tired, sarcastic, snippety, or chipper and friendly. When you combine active listening with watching for the body language you will get an even better understanding of what the customer is saying. As a business owner you must actively listen to your customers in order to stay in business.

 

On Get to Know Your Customers Day employing my five tips or one or more of my five tips will make your customers feel appreciated and valued. You, as a business owner will gain a wealth of knowledge by surveying your customers, actively listening, paying attention to his or her body language and shopping habits, learning his or her name and then by hosting a customer appreciation day. The more you know about your customers the more you will be able to ensure you are providing products and services that your customers want.

The Pranic Principle - Prana, Orgone, and Spiritual Energy in the Universe and Nature - Part 3

Prana not as Restricted to the Arrow of Time as Material Energy

While all of the events of physical reality are severely limited to very restrictive laws of nature and must be perfectly aligned along a linear arrow of time from which there is no escape, prana seems to exhibit a remarkable freedom from all these physical limitations. Even though prana interacts with physical nature and does choose to follow some basic time-line principles when it wants to, unlike physical objects, it can also transcend the 4th dimension of the space-time continuum and penetrate the higher 5th dimension of time travel and all probabilities. As opposed to physical matter, it is much more controllable by the mind and seems much more closely aligned with the will of God as far as the existence of a Supreme Being is concerned.

Because prana is not so limited to the arrow of time, it can send information from the future back into the present moment in the form of a dream during sleep or as a flash of insight or as a vision during superconsciousness. I have had several such experiences where I was able to dream of an event that actually occurred within a day to a month later! These things do happen, but are so fleeting and so rare, that it would be very difficult to repeat such events and have them scientifically confirmed. Some of it could be just coincidental anyway, but coincidence may be part of the "mechanism".

Because prana is a mass of quantum particles whose nature is quite ambiguous (5th dimensional), it is impossible to nail them down objectively without strong influence by how they are measured and how they are observed. Even though all matter is made up of these ambiguous quantum particles and comes from the same material prana is made of, there are so many sheer numbers of these particles concentrated in such small areas (in the form of electrons, protons, neutrons, etc.) that the vast majority of all physical matter is kept very strongly in line with natural laws via strict statistical constructs. It is by its sheer mass and inertia that most physical matter must remain stuck forever within the bounds of natural law or the 4 dimensional arrow of time and sequence of logic such as the aging process.

Prana is far more interesting than matter because its relative mass is so minute, so uncertain, and is not nearly as restricted to the limitations of time and space. It is a free energy spontaneously operating out of the 5th dimension where time breaks down and distance is no longer an obstacle. It can willingly work within the physical laws of nature and yet can jump outside of all time and space into the 5th dimension where it can go anywhere and any "when" and do anything one wishes it to do.

Some Simple Pranic Collection Devices and Possible Experiments Revealing Strange Properties of Prana

While traveling at high speeds either by car, train, speedboat, and plane in addition to the obvious sensation of acceleration and deceleration there is, quite noticeable, some sort of uplifting thrill of being alive especially where there is the closest contact and maximum friction possible with the rushing of wind and/or water. Much of this effect is caused by the friction of air and/or moisture against the boat, car or plane.

A strong positive electrical charge is often generated by this friction, but the psychological sensation cannot be entirely due to any electrical effects that may be occurring. Free electrons flying off of colliding atoms may cause some of the effect, but many other sorts of particles or some sort of energy principle of a much, much finer sort (beyond the detection ability of most sensitive equipment) may be charging up the subtler aspects of one's being, such as the energy body.

Simple experiments can be done at home and in one's backyard to demonstrate the existence of prana. Prana can be collected on clothing, towels and other such materials that have a massive surface area.

1) Dream Catcher: attach towel to a large, square, fully contained electric fan at top and securely placed by an open window. During sleep, run fan with towel not completely blocking air current but draping in front of it. (NEVER do this with a heating fan!) Sleeping with this method has contributed to some very vivid, floating dreams. Does prana increase one's ability to dream? I'm sure it does! For me personally, draping a cloth over a fan running at full speed at my bedroom window while asleep is a certain way for me to do lucid dreaming and, more importantly, to help transmute sexual energy while uplifting my emotions and spirit into a state of pure love and devotion. Also meditation, deep relaxation and ability to astral project is greatly enhanced. Prana seems to be the stuff dreams are made of! There is a definite connection between dreams and prana. This fact I know for sure; I have performed this experiment over and over, and much prefer the fan blowing into my room than without it, because l LOVE to dream.

2) Whenever I placed the end of an electric garden blower directly on my shoe, the concentrated air, coolness and vibration from the blower would penetrate right through my shoe and sock so fiercely that it would actually seem to make my foot feel absolutely etherial and extremely light. I would find this sensation extremely enjoyable, but, of course, I would make sure no one sees me do this and try not to do this too often! I usually have more important things to do! If I tried this same experiment without my shoe and sock on, it would not be nearly as effective. The intense air currents forced inside the sock and shoe would very quickly convert into a high concentration of prana, charging up the energy field in and around my foot. Without the sock and shoe, the air currents would simply pass right over my foot and very little prana would be collected. Only a slight increase in prana is noticed without the shoe and sock on. If my foot were very hairy, I would probably notice more prana collecting around my foot. Long hair can collect more prana (life force energy) than short hair. That is why some saints instinctively grow long hair.

3) Set up a plastic cover or waterproof tent. Hit surface with a fine spray at high velocity. I have noticed a slight increase in the energy level of my awareness using this method.

4) Create a metal chamber large enough to sit inside comfortably. Hit every side of the container with a sand blaster. Theoretically, the finer energies (particles?) released by the atoms of silicon and air hitting against an aluminum or iron surface would accumulate inside the container giving one a powerful "rush" or charge of energy from a source not altogether explainable by conventional science.

It is important to note that I believe the uplifting effect is from the energy of the sudden stop or friction caused by the atoms hitting the surface which may in itself be creating very minute particles or units of energy too subtle to be detected. Note the similarity between this experiment and a particle beam accelerator where particles are forced to collide into each other at nearly the speed of light. When particles collide, new particles are created directly from the mass or energy from the collision itself which is always more than the amount of mass or energy contained in the original particles themselves before they were accelerated. The faster the collision, the more mass and/or number of particles created. If somehow, a collection of particles collided at the speed of light (a nearly impossible event because it would require an infinite amount of energy), an almost infinite amount of energy and/or mass in the form of radiation and particles would be created. It would be an event very similar to the "Big Bang" as postulated in the "Big Bang" theory of creation.

However, even at very slow speeds, when particles and especially much larger clusters of particles such as atoms and molecules are forced to suddenly change direction (as in the case of the friction caused by air currents rushing against a vehicle or water currents against a vessel) is it not possible that extremely fine (undetectable) particles or units of energy are still released? Because such collisions are much, much slower the impacts would have to be vastly more abundant to create a noticeable effect. The particles created would most likely be of a huge variety with most of them lasting only for a very short time before vanishing back into space rather like the eddies created by the passing of a ship except these are quantum "eddies" in the ocean of space.

Prana is sometimes better explained as an energy principle rather than as actual particles, or some sort of energy that could be creating particles that are so fine that they cannot be detected by any conventional instrument except by the incredibly sensitive human energy field, which in itself is a source of prana.

5) Another experience of the power of prana can be had by remaining inside a car (if permitted) while going through a car wash. A sensitive person would experience quite a rush of energy as the auto runs through the cycle where it is hit on all sides by powerful streams of water followed by an intense blast of air. This rush of energy can be attributed just to the sounds and vibrations associated with going through a car wash, but it seems to be more than that.

Many years ago, while taking off in a 747, I have noticed a similar effect. Of course the sense of acceleration and becoming airborne can greatly contribute to the overall effect of exhilaration, energy, etc. I don't think travel would be nearly as popular if prana had no effect on people. Just being in a different location seems to boost one's personal level of prana quite dramatically.

What does three seperate red dots under each feather of a dream catcher tattoo mean?

A three feathered dream catcher tattoo, means warrior. If it has a red dot under each feather it means they have seen combat, or war. I want to find out if this is true and i would like to see a picture of one.

Dunno if it's true or not! And don't have a pic either google tattoo pics and you'll find it!
