When one does a study of some of the most effective salespeople, one often encounters a mixed bag of ethically questionable tactics. One extremely successful car salesman would sit down with a phone book, call people and tell them their new car was ready for pickup. When people inevitably said, “I didn’t order a car,” he would profusely apologize and then immediately segue into asking them if they were at all in the market for a new car. With this approach, he made a fortune and set the world record at the time for most non-fleet sales made by a car salesman “one customer at a time.” Now to his credit, he was extremely likable, attentive, thorough, and did great customer service, sent birthday cards to his customers, etc. Nevertheless, a lot of his success was predicated on a lie and deception. What is Creator’s perspective?

In reference to the above car salesman’s success, he was successful because he was good at “cold calling” which most people have a deep aversion to. Cold calling is one of the most obvious breaches of the “Golden Rule” there is. Almost everyone HATES getting cold calls, and yet most successful salespeople will assert that you need to do it in order to be successful. Brian remembers one “boiler room” telephone canvasser who bragged how she abused anyone cold calling her but had no problem doing cold calling for a living. The stark hypocrisy was dramatic and utterly remorseless and unapologetic. She literally thought it was “hilarious” and laughed about it. Brian found it disturbing, to say the least. What is Creator’s perspective?

Cold calling works precisely because so many people have an aversion to doing it. That alone makes it a successful strategy for those who can bring themselves to do it. Brian did sales in the late 80s and struggled with this dilemma. A rule of thumb is it takes 10 calls to get a lead, 10 leads to get an appointment, and 10 appointments to get a sale. Brian demonstrated to himself that, indeed, the formula works and managed to get a house listing as a result. But rather than being encouraged by his success, he was so overcome with guilt about disturbing people eating dinner that he eventually abandoned sales as a career altogether. Cold calling cannot work if everyone does it. Everyone’s phone would ring all day long and it would be utterly chaotic and untenable. There is the idea that, if “everyone” can’t, then maybe no one “should?” What is Creator’s perspective?

Another successful sales guru made a fortune selling heavy stainless steel cookware door to door. (A direct form of cold calling that predates the telephone). He frequently recounted one sale he made where the woman initially slammed the front door on him and, in response, he went around to the back door to apologize for knocking on the front door. He was so charming and disarming, that the woman felt bad about mistreating him and consented to listening to his presentation as a way to make amends. She ended up buying the very expensive cookware he was selling. We are confronted with the dilemma of his apology being “insincere,” because he certainly felt no remorse about knocking on her front door at all, much less her back door after she made it clear she didn’t want to interact with him. What is Creator’s perspective on this anecdote, and what positive and negative divine lessons can we learn from it?

“Breaking the ice” is a phrase in common usage. The online Free Dictionary defines the term this way: “To do something as a means of reducing or eliminating shyness, awkward tension, or unfamiliarity.” So much of persuasion founders on this “iceberg” that the term is quite an ingenious summation of a common problem requiring great skill to master. When someone knows or learns how to “break the ice” effectively, the world is literally their oyster. This is clearly a very important “art of living” skill and lesson that so many people would benefit from mastering but struggle with intensely. What divine insight can Creator share about this common dilemma and challenge?

Like so many things dragging us down in this world, an inability to master the art of persuasion has to be up there pretty high on the list. How much of this is a deep healing need requiring divine intervention to resolve? How can Empowered Prayer, the Lightworker Healing Protocol, Deep Subconscious Mind Reset, and Divine Life Support help to heal the barriers to becoming a persuasive individual? How can divine partnership ensure that the power of persuasion is used to uplift rather than abuse?

Google provides this as a definition of gaslighting: “Gaslighting is a type of psychological abuse that involves manipulating someone into questioning their own reality, memories, or sanity. The goal of gaslighting is to gain power and control over the victim, and it can be very effective.” Gaslighting is often done over a long period of time, so the victim may not realize they are being manipulated. Gaslighters may lie about everything, not just big things that could be covered up. Gaslighters may deny things that happened or promises they made. Gaslighters may question the victim’s memory of events, even if the victim remembers them accurately. It seems as if there is a unified strategy on the part of the interlopers, the Extraterrestrial Alliance. Is that what’s REALLY going on, the absolute historic GASLIGHTING of humanity? What is Creator’s perspective?

Predicting the future has always been VERY problematic, especially in an environment of rapid flux and even chaos. Is it “controlled” chaos? We know the interlopers are time travelers, and if their agenda was truly the gaslighting of humanity, then the ability to predict the future is what is, in fact, in the “crosshairs.” It’s the very attack vector the interlopers go to pains to maximize. Could this be a possible explanation as to why even divine predictions of the near future have been so uncharacteristically inaccurate? If the interlopers are, in fact, making a Herculean effort to create the most unpredictable reality for humanity imaginable, then abrupt change of plans would not be the exception but the RULE. Creator has attributed this to the “fickleness” of the interlopers, but fickleness seems pretty benign in contrast to an intentional campaign to be as unpredictable as possible. What can Creator tell us?

In an era where people cannot seemingly have faith in anything, it is all the more imperative to have faith in the divine. Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer, the Lightworker Healing Protocol, Deep Subconscious Mind Reset, and Divine Life Support are the genuine means to connect with TRUE reality and have protection and clarity while the gaslighting of humanity grows to its inevitable finale?

Finding your soulmate, your better half, the partner of your dreams, has never been easy. But lately, it seems to have become exponentially harder than ever before. It is believed that fully half of single men have given up on dating and courting women altogether. There is even a mass movement of men known as MGTOW (mig-tao) or “Men Going Their Own Way.” Critics call this movement “male supremacy,” and hateful of women, but members would dispute that and counter that modern relationships with women are downright dangerous for men—dangerous enough to warrant complete withdrawal and avoidance of any and all non-professional involvement with women.

Something as simple as holding a door open for a woman has suddenly become an uncertain endeavor that could just as easily elicit condemnation and accusations of bigotry and misogyny as it does a smile and warm “thank you.” As a result, many, if not by now most, men have given up on the practice altogether, leaving a great many more traditional women confused and even angry. So it’s become almost a catch-22 situation. Damned if you do, and damned if you don’t. What is Creator’s perspective?

The advent of the Internet, and the more recent widespread adoption of smartphones, has really changed the dating scene, and most men and women would agree it’s not for the better. A recent experiment had a male set up an attractive female profile, and it generated 20,000 matches in a just a few hours. A similar reverse experiment set up by a female thinking she could prove there was a level playing field, generated only a few dozen matches to the male profile she created, in the span of an entire month, and none of those turned into an actual date. The female experimenter reported feeling completely dejected by the (for her) shocking outcome of the experiment. Women are overwhelmed with attention, and men largely report feeling almost completely invisible. What is Creator’s perspective?

In New York City, it has been observed that dating apps have enabled many women to establish different kinds of categories for men interested in them. A study reported in the New York Post revealed that 33% of women confessed to going on dates just to get “free food.” They even have a term for it, namely, a “foodie call.” Some women have a full address book of men they can call not only for free food but free home repairs, car repairs, shopping trips, travel, you name it. The women have zero intention of ever getting romantically involved with any of these men. All of these men are in the dreaded “friend zone.” What is Creator’s perspective?

Sixty percent of college graduates today are women. Women are increasingly filling managerial roles and displacing men in numerous professional occupations such as law and medicine. Men, by and large, have no issues “dating down” and entering relationships with women who earn much less than they do, and who are even unemployed altogether. Whereas, the opposite is almost never true for successful women. Overwhelmingly, they hold out and say yes only to men who make as much or preferably more than they do, who are taller than they are (or at least not shorter), and more “successful and worldly,” however they might personally define that. The result is that more and more women are chasing fewer and fewer “qualified” men. They are literally pricing themselves out of the dating market. What is Creator’s perspective?

The dating scene is especially problematic, and even deeply traumatic, for single mothers of all ages. With the divorce rate above 50%, along with the huge number of births happening out of wedlock, it’s reaching the point where more children are being raised by single mothers than are being raised by married cohabiting biological parents. Overwhelmingly, most single men, and more often than that, the more desirable single men, want nothing to do with a single mother. Men, by and large, would rather not raise another man’s children and need to be really incentivized to do so. This is a problem that just seems to keep getting worse, not better. What is Creator’s perspective?
