THE ART OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION

How to more effectively communicate as executives in leadership positions and as those who speak publicly in the media during speeches and campaigning.

by Zuma Dogg

How to inspire innovation, creativity, quality, productivity, answers and solutions from everywhere within the organization.

(Here's the technical part that you must read to generate the benefit):

Everything you experience (sight, sound, smell, taste and feeling) is recorded in your mind's subconscious (permanent memory bank).

It works just like a video camera, recording everything you experience through our senses onto tape (your subconscious).

Although you may not be able to consciously remember every bit of information recorded by your memory, your subconscious does. and makes constant reference to it 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, behind your conscious' back/
Even while you sleep, the dreams you have at night are merely your subconscious mind in action, "out to play" while your conscious mind rests "off duty".
It is the subconscious mind that is actually responsible for our feelings behaviors and actions and your subconscious controls the thoughts and decisions that shape your life.

Your subconscious is an instinctive mechanism, responsible for allowing your instinctive wisdom and knowledge to flow freely.

If your subconscious could flow freely through you, all the time, without distraction, your mind and body would be in a constant state of congruence and your actions would always support your emotional needs and desires.

Your conscious mind is the gatekeeper of your mind, and attempts to screen what goes in and out as a shortcut to help speed up your thinking and decision making process.

You see, you couldn’t possibly pay attention to every detail of information you have every taken in, so your conscious mind uses its best judgment and decides what you should focus your thoughts and attention on at any given moment.

As a result, your conscious mind "filters" your experience of he world (what you sense) and can leave out vital information or distort your perception of reality. Your conscious mind is only there to protect you and always has your emotional best interest in mind.

But since it filters and distorts information, sometimes it is in conflict with your subconscious mind. Your subconscious mind is actually the bottom line, final decision maker and is always your highest level of awareness.

The key to accessing your higher levels of awareness, allowing us to function at out peak, is to have the conscious in congruence with the subconscious.

This state of congruence is achieved by replacing "negative", "uninspiring" thoughts, beliefs and behaviors – with new, empowering thoughts, beliefs and behaviors that triggers your higher level of creative and innovative state.

This is a simple process your mind can go through, just like turning on a light switch to the "on" position, allowing new inspiring thoughts and ideas, that support your actions, to stay "on" and flow freely.

And it is easy to focus your mind to allow your conscious and subconscious mind to work together in congruence.

Your subconscious takes everything literally and does not distinguish between what is imagined and what is real.

So your conscious mind is always protecting your subconscious mind from being influences in any way that may cause you emotional or physical harm.

For example, without your conscious mind screening your sensory input, if someone told you to "go take a long walk off of a short pier", you would actually walk to the nearest pier and continue walking.

So it is important to be aware that as you being to focus your thought patterns to support your empowering beliefs and actions and as you being to practice more effective communication methods to be featured in upcoming articles, you begin to start paying attention to the words you use when communicating with yourself and others. What television are you watching, what music are you listening to, what internet sites are you surfing. Do they help contribute to your inspired goals? (If not, how can you be comfortable wasting the time like that, anymore?)

The process of aligning your conscious and subconscious mind through focus and congruent self-communication is called "hypnotherapy" or "trance". You go into trance all the time, throughout the day.

For example, when you are driving down the street; your body is steering and you are breaking, steering, reading signs, reacting…but you aren’t consciously thinking about each action. (How about when you fly right past the exit, or make the same right turn you are used to, the one time you mean to turn left.) You daydream, talk on the phone, listen to the radio, look at buildings and billboards with your conscious mind, while your subconscious mind is in control of the driving process at a "subliminal" level.

Most of the time you watch TV, you are in a state of trance. Advertisers like Domino's and so many others certainly know this. Have you ever noticed how hungry you and Homer Simpson get when that Burger King commercial comes on the screen?
That’s because advertisers know, the mere sight of that melted cheese, or flame broiled burger triggers your appetite mechanism in your subconscious. You’re probably getting hungry just reading about it.

So advertisers (billboards, internet, newspapers, magazines, television, radio, fliers, etc.) certainly know how to control your thoughts, actions and behaviors and you allow them to constantly manipulate your feelings, actions and behaviors at the subconscious level.

So take control of your mind and use this process to your advantage by making a commercial in your mind of inspiring, motivating thoughts, ideas and feelings that will trigger you to take action to immediately improve the situation and your passion will noticed by all who you encounter, throughout the day.

START TO FILTER THE MESSAGES YOU TAKE IN EACH DAY (Especially kids)

I’m sure everyone reading this has read that, "all success starts in the mind".
Unfortunately, we encounter so much negative programming from the media and so much negative, doubt-talk (many times from the people closest to us), maybe you know someone who’s mind has started to run those incongruent, limiting belief patterns that causes dysfunctional behavior?

It’s all the negative conditioning (focus) from all these negative messages and communications from the media and people we encounter that can allow you to be drawn off-sides or forget your initial mission (creative thoughts, desires, goals, dreams and inspiration).

So if you want to take on the challenge of leadership, innovation, creativity and action it takes to create transformation (the transformation it takes to activate the community and increase student achievement at LAUSD and across all neighborhoods in the city) you must become aware of the messages you are allowing yourself to focus on, and become more aware of the language patterns you are using to communicate and motivate yourself and others. (ESPECIALLY WITH KIDS!!!)
Are you surrounding yourself with the kind of people, radio, books, internet, music and TV that helps put you in the most creative, innovative and inspired state of mind?

Or are you going down the path of a video game playing, "Wheel of Fortune" watching, ESPN expert-level, media-conditioned, hypnotized, tranced-out denial-bunny?
I wish elementary school readers would read this story because the first thing society starts to do in the parental and educational process is start to strip away uniqueness and creativity (conformity helps keep things simple) and impose all sorts of limiting beliefs and fears to help keep people in check.

Maybe I should make a YouTube hip-hop song to tell students that your mind is capable of much more than some people give you credit for.
I will continue to create specifically worded material that I will post on this blog so we can all check in throughout the day, or week, to help re-focus our thoughts and minds in an innovative, creative and inspired direction so we can be more focused and motivated and can hopefully pass it along to staff and everyone else around us.

Nothing will be pertaining to any specific area, person or issue. The purpose of this type of educational material based on clinical hypnotherapy (Milton Erickson) is not to try and tell you what you should be doing, or what agendas you should be pushing, or what areas you need to improve:

And it’s not to unleash a new wave of Zuma Dogg-style, singing and dancing political media activists. It’s to allow you to be more effective in your position in this city and if you are reading this, I don’t care what your political affiliation; what side of the land development issue you are on; if you are reading this, then ZD feels you are an important asset to the community who can actually make a difference, create change and help steer the community and city toward making some of the transformations that can benefit society as a whole. (Even if you are shady,

I’m sure you wouldn’t mind running your district offices more efficiently; I’m sure
even the most corrupt politicians would still like to have safe, vibrant neighborhoods. Even higher property taxes to profit off of!)
For a while, when I first started to surround myself with the material of Deming, Robbins, Dyer, Chopra, Bandler, Erickson, Peck, Williamson, Ries, Trout and other; I immediately wanted to become one of these authors. And I did get to pursue that goal, having articles published in various international trades and as once legendary media and research consultant. And these authors and speakers have spawned millions of other "wannabes" across the world.

But the message and material isn’t intended to make you a better author/seminar speaker/gadfly wannabe:

It’s to help you be the "guru" of your own world and life! Everyone reading this is in an important position on the job or in the community. So you already know what to do and are doing it. The material synthesized in this presentation from many of the authors mentioned above is the method you use to help focus and tune your most valuable tool to become even more of a leader: The thoughts and beliefs that program your mind and controls your actions and behaviors that move you closer and closer toward your goals as your mind allows you to unleash higher and higher levels of awareness that causes the type of enlightenment that drives innovation, creativity and leadership.
