I Love the DICK 2! Self-Hypnosis for Signs of Anxiety and Stress

There's no denying these are stressful times, especially if you're in the job hunt. Because of the recession there are so many applicants that companies can be more choosy than ever.

Take my experience right now, for instance. One particular company (I won't mention any names) has had me do three tests (one online), three interviews (one over the phone), a background check, credit check, finger printing, and drug test.

Plus, they've had me turn in pay stubs from former jobs to prove my employment (as well as talking with former supervisors) and turn in a Schedule C Tax Form as proof of self-employment (as well as verifying that with my accountant!).

It's scary and stressful and anxiety provoking because even after all that... this gauntlet of PROOF of WORTHINESS (which, of course, has taken several weeks) the position is still unconfirmed. In other words, after all this, I still might not get it.

In my article "I Love Dick" we discussed the benefits of self-hypnosis for handling depression. This morning I listened to Dick Sutphen's audio "Relax" to help me handle this anxiety... And it reminded me of something.

We can't relax if we're in the middle of TRYING, WANTING, NEEDING. Remember when we were kids? That's what meditation is all about: Getting back to that place of setting aside the worrying. We didn't worry as children. We played and life just happened.

Dali said, "Resignation is the work of art." There is only so much we can DO and then we need to just relax and let go; we need to resign ourselves to whatever the universe, God, fate (whatever you choose to call it) has lined up for us.

Relax and ALLOW.

I wasn't able to find that exact Dick Sutphen audio for you, today. But if you'd like to check out his work (and his gorgeous wife Tara's) you can go to his website: http://www.tstonramp.com/~soaringspirit/

Just to get you started here's a relaxation at the beach video I found on YouTube. There are many more mini self-hypnos there.

JOB INTERVIEWS: Build Your Confidence

The Blue Morpho butterfly, native to Central A...
Break out of your cocoon!
Lately, the hard part has been just getting the job interview. Whether it’s my age (I’m a Baby Boomer) or the tough recession economy, I’m not sure. But I finally did get an interview and I got the job!

Don’t get me wrong. I’ve just fallen head over heels with blogging, my latest venture, and I hope to do it full-time at some point. But, as all (well most) artists and writers know… a “day job” is a necessary evil, part of what is needed to make one’s dreams come true. In fact, the last time I sat down and counted, I had had over fifty different “day jobs” over the years. Can anyone top that? For a moment, I’m actually feeling a sense of pride rather than shame.

Someone recently suggested that I add a DONATE button to my blog. So, shamelessly, I did.

I’ll try not to digress too far here, but this reminds me of an experience I had last summer while trying to sell my artwork at the local mall. It took a good amount of time to set it all up, following the proper protocol, ordinances, licenses, fees, etc. 

Then, I sat myself down and for four hours… made absolutely nothing.  

Meanwhile, a panhandler came along and joined me for the last hour or so. He stood in the middle of the sidewalk and accosted every passerby (which was against the rules for me, of course), and seemed to have done quite well. So, as he was leaving, I asked him how he did. He was there for 50 minutes and said he’d ONLY made forty dollars… “so not that great”. Forty bucks an hour? Hmm. I knew then I was in the wrong business.

And not only that, but my experience that day was made even more memorable when a shopkeeper complained that I was too close to their shop (not the first time this had happened), and in the wrong zone. So, after spending months creating my paintings, schlepping them all the way down there, trying to follow all the rules, paying all necessary fees, setting up and tearing down, I was escorted away by the police. True story. It was time to get another day job.

So, I’ve had lots of practice with job interviews. 

Do you find yourself tongue-tied and nervous when it comes time for the job interview questions? Forget trying to memorize the best job interview answers. You won’t need to know job interview questions and answers if you have enough self-confidence.

With self-confidence, the job interview will just flow naturally. It will be as natural as any ordinary conversation. You would not have gotten the interview if you weren’t qualified enough for the job, according to your resume. The interviewer now just wants to see you in person, to not only determine if you have some rapport with each other, but to see if you have enough confidence in your skills to handle the job.

Plus, as one recent interviewer so eloquently stated, "You can't really tell if they're a sleezeball or not unless you see them eye to eye."

Here is my BEST TIP for acing the interview: Self-Hypnosis for Self-Confidence. It works!

I used to get nervous too, stumbling over my words and fidgeting too much. Not any more.

Let’s face it, nothing tops self-confidence. Nothing is more attractive, whether it’s in the bedroom or the board (bored?) room than self-confidence. 

An interviewer can smell fear (read insecurity) a mile away. And what does that say about you? That you’re not sure you can handle the job.

So, the night before and morning of (preferably weeks in advance) you should be listening to your self-confidence self-hypnosis audios or visuals. You’ll know it’s working when you have, what I call “the hypnosis moment”. One day you’ll be going about your business as usual when, all of a sudden, you’ll do or say something completely out of character (for your old self!). 

It will be as if you’re looking over your own shoulder going, “Wow, did I just say that?”. Believe me, hypnosis does work and it’s awesome. It’s awesome to know that we truly have the power to change ourselves for the better. 

Oh, yeah. I can’t remember where I found it but I did read a study once that said even skeptics experienced positive results. 

My favorite hypnotist is Dick Sutphen. I love his audio/visual: “Incredible Self-Confidence” Video Hypnosis with Subliminals: Incredible Self Confidence [VHS] with the suggestions… You are self-reliant and self-confident, You are filled with independence and determination, You have great inner courage, Every day in every way you become more self-confident, You project a very positive self-image, You can do whatever you set your mind to, You are very sure of yourself, You can do it. Also available as audio only. Increasing Self-Confidence by Dick Sutphen (Subliminal Programming & Self-Hypnosis) HP004 [Rare, Vintage, 1985, 23-Year-Old Collectible]

Bob Griswald is also good and if you search YouTube you’ll find a bunch of videos, short and sweet, to shop through. Here's one to get you started.
