Over the past three weeks, I have had the good fortuneof being in different car dealerships leasing new vehicles.

It is a matter of keeping busy, keeping the thoughts away. You know what I mean. Those thoughts that arise, when you have nothing to do.

Just recently, I was invited to give a one-hour workshop on “Using Your Brain…for a Change.” To put it another way, “It’s all in your head.”

I know a selfish man who did not know he was selfish. Even when he found out, he could not do anything about it. Hard as he tried, he could not break this habit.

I know a man who thought he had his life together until one day he was laid off by his employer. After working for the for the company for 14 years, he did not know what he was going to do.

Many years ago when I was driving to my job and listening to the radio, I heard a commercial offering to teach people how to become a clinical hypnotherapist.

A place where I eat has a rocking man, upright with arms always folded across his chest. His posture appears to be very defensive. Yet his humor is dry to go with his warm, caring personality.

My daughter called this morning to ask if it would be okay with my wife to hem a pair of pants. She was starting a new job, had bought new clothing and didn’t want to mess up the pants. “Come over at 7 tonight,” my wife said.

I received an unusual call today from a client who said he had been hypnotized some time ago and has been uncomfortable since.

A lazy Sunday afternoon. The sun casts rays and shadows in the room. Sitting comfortably in an armchair, listening, feeling relaxed.
