Fear of Flying Music

There are those of us who love to fly… and there are those of us who simply refuse to fly. The gap between these two frames of mind is huge. The fear of flying, in particular, is fueled by the media. An airplane crash is instant national news. The media loves to exploit the aviation industry whether it be for financial gain, viewer ratings, or a combination of the two. One could only wonder what the evening news would be like if they showed successful takeoffs and landings every night. General aviation is treated much the same as the commercial airlines in regards to media coverage. General aviation includes all flying other than scheduled commercial flights and the flying of military aircraft. General aviation includes the local pilots flying out of that non-towered airport at the edge of town; the part-time aviators who fly for a hobby, as well as commercially rated professional pilots and instructors who love to share the flying phenomenon with others. Those who love to fly low and slow and enjoy the beauty of the landscape and the feeling of flight can share this wonderful experience with those on the ground thanks to modern technology specifically the the hand-held video camera.Flying is an incredible experience that many people may never have the privilege of experiencing for themselves.Those who choose not the fly in propeller driven airplanes might never see the amazing view available through the windshield. Websites featuring videos uploaded by their individual users such as Youtube and Eye of the Pilot are changing that. Videos shot from the cockpit of a small airplane are enlightening to say the very least. If you are a private pilot with access to a small plane and a handheld video cam, you may want to take some time and record a flight or two. The process is simple and the rewards are plenty. Sharing cockpit videos among family and friends can spark interest in general aviation and maybe even lessen the fears of those who refuse or resist flying.Producing a flying video is actually quite simple. The camera however, will need an external microphone jack if you wish to record your voice and radio chatter. A handy cam without the microphone jack will do nothing more than record video plus your motor noise which is not typically desirable. With some basic software and a bit of computer savvy, music or narration can be dubbed over your video in this case. Cameras with an external microphone jack can be interfaced with the intercom of the airplane through the use of a patch cord. It simply plugs into your headset in series with your connection to the jack on the airplane’s instrument panel. These patch cords are available at your friendly neighborhood pilot supply shop. There are also schematics available on some aviation websites for those interested in making their own patch cord.Digital video cameras work best if you’re planning to share the video online. Older analog cameras using the 8mm tapes or even the VHS style cameras are fine if you are planning on viewing these flying adventures from home on a television set. These tapes can be converted to a digital file through the use of some commercially available computer hardware and software, although this method can be cumbersome and time consuming and is not generally recommended for those interested in posting the videos online. Flying an airplane is a privilege. Becoming a private pilot takes education, dedication, training, and plenty of practice. To many pilots, flying is literally sacred. That’s why sharing this experience with those not fortunate enough to find themselves in a cockpit can be done best through the magic of video.

The big question is “Can hypnosis cure phobias?”.
When the hypnotist you are asking answers with a resounding “yes”, the next thought is usually along the lines of “yeah, right”.
But you’d be amazed at the high success rate that hypnosis has with phobias.
Top athletes regularly use hypnosis in all areas of their career. One of these areas that they may not be quite as public about is a fear of flying. After all, how can something as common place as flying be something to be afraid of? Surely almost every plane that takes off lands again safely?
Yet fear of flying is a biggie.
Hypnosis to the rescue!
By getting to the core of the fear, hypnosis can turn round the fear of flying and let you face an airport without turning into a quivering wreck.
The same goes for any other fear or phobia you’ve got.
For instance, if you’ve been afraid of heights since childhood, you can listen to a hypnosis MP3 and watch the fear melt away. This won’t mean that you will lose the natural fear that kicks in when you are about to do something stupid from a height. But it will mean that you can climb a tower or tall building and admire the view, without your knuckles turning white while they are gripping the nearest safe object.
Public speaking is another very common fear. Truth be known, most of the audience probably don’t care what you are saying in your presentation. They’re just glad that it’s you who drew the short straw rather than them. You can use hypnosis to boost your confidence in public speaking so that you don’t break out into a cold sweat the next time you are asked to speak in public.

Is it my imagination or are more people suffering from phobias in the modern day? Perhaps this is the case, perhaps not; certainly there are more people who are willing to talk about having a phobia or suffering from anxiety. Phobias no longer have a stigma associated with them, and rightly so.

It is inevitable that when you live in an environment where you travel more or move in different circles more frequently that anxieties and phobias are more likely to arise. Our grandparents and great grandparents lived very different lives to that which we live; when you live in a more limited environment you more easily stay within the confines of your comfort zone. There is less going on which might give rise to a phobic reaction.

But the anxiety response does indeed date back to our more ancient ancestors. The surge of adrenalin which we experience in times of threat (commonly known as the “fight or flight” response) has remained with us throughout the course of our evolution. The forms of threat have changed, but our natural and instinctive physiological response has remained the same. In more primitive times this was essential; you had to be prepared to fight or run when faced with a hungry beast in search of a meaty dinner.

As a result of natural selection, those who had the most efficient “fight or flight” response ended up as the survivors, and they have passed these genes down to you and me. And so whenever we perceive something which might be construed as a threat, this natural reaction automatically kicks in and your heart starts to beat faster and your entire body goes on red alert.

This reaction is good and necessary, so long as the perceived threat is indeed a threat. It is not good when the perceived threat gives rise to a fear of flying, or a fear of heights, or claustrophobia or perhaps even just thin air. When one takes a step back and sees the sequence of events which leads to the creation of a phobia, it is easier to see how to find a phobia cure.

When you understand that the physical sensations experienced are merely your body’s natural reaction to a perceived threat, you also appreciate that these physical sensations are “hard-wired” and that they are not going to change. The point at which change can take place is in how one perceives the threat as a threat. To cure a phobia one has to step back and learn to see things from a different angle, from a different perspective. The anxiety response will remain dormant so long as the perceptions you are making are not seen as a threat.

Therefore those in search of a phobia cure need to seek a way in which to see airplanes, spiders, heights or whatever else in a different light. You will know at a logical and conscious level how you should be thinking about them. But the emotional and subconscious response over-rides this logic. And so the obvious place in which to go to affect your phobia cure is to the area of your subconscious mind.

Hypnosis allows you to intentionally access the workings of your subconscious mind. With hypnosis you can learn to take a step back and see things from a different angle. This is why hypnosis is becoming well known as the quickest and easiest way in which you can cure a phobia.

People who are afraid of flying are often mistakenly regarded as a homogenous group in which all individuals suffer the same fears. Most people who fear flying are usually worried about various matters related to flight-safety.

However, a significant group of fearful fliers suffer from claustrophobia – a fear of enclosed spaces.

Claustrophobia is a fear of going into places it might be difficult, or impossible to leave when one wants and includes fear of being in a place that might have a shortage of air.

These feelings may be experienced in a wide variety of places – an elevator, a theater, a shopping center, an underground train, taxis or car, a train or bus, not to mention various facilities in amusement parks and other enclosed places.

Fear of flying in this context derives from the claustrophobic person’s apprehension that the airplane is a closed-in space – and there is no way of getting out of it. This makes claustrophobic feelings in a plane more severe than in most other enclosed places. While one can step out of a shopping mall or a theater, and stop the bus and get off, this cannot be done on a plane. From the moment the doors are closed one has no control over the situation, the pilots are isolated from the passenger cabin and it is not possible to stop and get off.

It is estimate that 35% of those who are afraid of flying and avoid flying are claustrophobics. Another word, their main concern is the fact that the aircraft is closed. This is why many of the Relaxed Flight seminar participants suffer from claustrophobia.

If the sufferer also gets a feeling that the air might run out it is easy to understand why the fear of enclosed spaces is more intense on a fight than anywhere else. Claustrophobics therefore avoid flying as much as possible. Some tell me they are willing to take very short flights – say up to an hour long – to shorten nightmare, but are not prepared to even consider a long flight.

After years of dealing with fear of flying and helping so many, I can say that there is a great difference between those who are afraid of flying because of claustrophobia, and those who fear it for safety reasons. Anyone can easily recognize if, and to what extent, he or she suffers in

enclosed places. If you avoid elevators, or look for exit signs and stroll mainly near the exits a shopping mall, or find it important for you to sit on the theater aisle rather than in a middle-row seat in the theater, you are probably suffering from claustrophobia.

Up to the time of flight, differences in behavior among individuals afraid of flying are not great – for example, they may all feel an increasing sense of pressure the closer the flight gets. But the differences during the flight become most significant.

Here are a few examples.

People who are afraid of flying for safety reasons become more fearful the longer the flight lasts. They constantly look at their watches and wish the flight would end; they cannot eat or get up, they are worried by every glance of the 1 of 4 about claustrophobia cabin crew, they are on the verge of a panic attack every time the plane enters turbulence and shakes, they yearn for explanations from the cockpit and there is no question of them watching a movie or napping. As the end of the flight nears, their dread begins to wane and when the descent starts they may even smile with relief. They feel that if the flight is almost over and nothing has happened, there is a good chance it may end safely. The landing is accompanied by a feeling of victory – the statistics were wrong, apparently,

and nothing happened.

However, with claustrophobics things happen differently. They are very careful about their seating arrangement and will always pick an isle seat, preferably near the door. Claustrophobics have two main crisis points on the flight – one the beginning and one at the end. Already in the terminal they are wondering “will I come home again or not.” At the crucial moment of boarding the plane the question “am I staying here or not?” torments them. The captain’s instruction to the crew to close the doors is their moment of truth, for it is their last chance to escape from the plane.

Many claustrophobics cannot stand the pressure and may decide to leave the airport, regardless of the trip’s importance – be it a honeymoon or a family reunion or a major business trip. Others who are braver may make it to the departure gate before turning back.

I always explain to air crews on my courses that a passenger who wants to get off the plane just before the doors close is probably suffering from claustrophobia. But what is interesting is that once claustrophobics decide to remain on the plane, they adjust to their new environment quite quickly. They adjust to the reality of being on a flight and from a certain point on they are normal passengers who walk around, eat, maybe even watch a movie or doze. Like many who fear flying however, they will avoid going into the toilet during flight – the toilet booth is tiny and cramped and cannot be left unlocked. Their trick is to avoid drinking on flight so to reduce the need to use the toilet. During the flight claustrophobics have faith in the crew; they have no safety related anxieties and are usually not bothered by turbulence.

But all is not well for long. As end of the flight nears and the “normal” fearful fliers start smiling with relief, the claustrophobic will start fretting about how to “get out of here as fast as possible” after landing. Claustrophobics have a difficult time after the plane lands and starts to taxi slowly to the terminal. The fear of closed-in places starts to mount again and they become more anxious to get off the plane immediately. Their nightmare is that the plane might be delayed in getting to the terminal or that there will be a long wait for the doors to open. The moment the plane stops and all the passengers rise from their seats and fill the isles can even trigger a panic attack.

I have describe the differences between fearful fliers in a general way, but of course each person can react individually and differently to the various flight situations.

I mentioned that as part of my specialization in fear of flying, I give courses on the subject to air crews. Among other things, I train them to recognize and distinguish passengers suffering from claustrophobia from those who are afraid of flying for safety reasons, and I explain how critical the seating arrangement is to these people. I emphasize the importance of helping them get off the plane first, even if they are not sitting in the front seats.

Coping with claustrophobia - The main question of course is what can be done to alleviate the condition.

With my vast experience with claustrophobic travelers I found out that there are several tools that can help you fly with claustrophobia. For example, the main concern of 95% of those who have never flown before and attended the seminar was the fact that the aircraft is closed. In fact, some of the testimonials you read in this web site belongs to some of them. more information can be found at: www.relaxedflight.com

There is so much credit flying about these days, that keeping tabs on the credit you have and the credit you have had in the past, would be a full time job. That’s if you decided to apply your time to it. Not only that the threat of fraud being committed in your name is becoming a bigger and bigger problem, by the minute and could lead to many problems that could see you refused any credit in the future.

There is though a knight in shining armour riding to our rescue. It is in the form of the new CreditExpert Monitoring Service, which is a subscriber service and is being made available to us, by the UK’s biggest credit reference agency Experian. It is aimed to cut out any problems that could befall our finances.

It works by letting you know when any changes are made to your personal credit information that they hold on you. It also allows you to keep track of your own financial information at any time that you wish to do so. This means that you can have any details you need at the drop of a hat.

But the biggest and most valuable thing that it does for you in my opinion is the protection that offers you, in the fight against Identity Fraud. A major worry for all of us and it should be. By being able to go online, we can keep a close eye out for any discrepancies, which may take place on our credit report. Though to give you added security, the new service will alert you if anything changes on your report.

The only service of it’s kind in the UK. The CreditExpert Monitoring service will send you weekly alerts via, your E-mail address or by a SMS text to your mobile phone. Once you have received your alert, al you then have to do is get online and check your credit report for any changes that have come about. If any of the changes that you have been contacted about are of your knowledge, then you will be satisfied that your personal details are in good hands.

Though on the flip side of the coin, you find that the changes, such as a loan or credit card have been applied for in your name and it is not of your doing, then the online site will have all of the resources in which you can use to inform them that there may be fraudulent use of your name being committed. It will also be useful to check that the company you have applied for credit from has placed all of your personal information correctly, if not then you can use the service to inform the credit agency of any mistakes.

Traveling with your pet can be one of the most rewarding experiences of a vacation. It takes away your worry when it comes to leaving your pet in the care of your neighbor or relative. It also saves you the money of having to put it in a kennel. However, the potential for things to go wrong while transporting your animal is high if you do not follow state and airline rules closely. But have no fear; things aren’t as bad as they often sound when reading through them on a government website. The regulations are actually fairly easy to follow.

Once your pet is old enough to travel (8 weeks and weaned) the first step is acquiring a travel kennel. In most instances your pet will need to be checked, it will not be allowed to travel with you into the passenger cabin (There are a few exceptions that will be addressed later). This means of passage requires a sturdy kennel to ensure your pet’s safety. There are a few requirements in terms of kennel design that are put in place to make the safety of your animal a certainty. The kennel must meet a minimum standard for size, strength, sanitation and ventilation based on your animal’s size and breed. They also must have a floor that will not allow any sort of leaking. Other than the floor, the kennel should be ventilated. 14% of the wall space needs to be ventilated in order to ensure proper air flow, allowing your pet to be comfortable. Speaking of comfort, your pet must have enough space to sit, stand, lay and breathe comfortably within the space provided. Another aspect of space and comfort is how many pets can be stored within one kennel. It is possible to store multiple animals of similar species and size within one compartment, but the maximum size allowed is two puppies or kittens that are under six months of age. Other important rules relate more to the airline’s ability to care for your pets then the kennel itself. You will need to have a health certificate from a certified veterinarian signed within ten days of travel to prove that your pet is able to travel safely. Similar paperwork is required for your pet to travel home, but the original certificate should suffice. Another health issue comes into play if you will be traveling for over twenty-four hours. Under those circumstances you will be required to post, on the outside of the kennel, all instructions for feeding, watering and giving of medication for your pet. You also must make sure that the kennel is outfitted with a handle or any other such device so that the luggage handlers can easily transport your pet.

With the major requirements met, you are ready to travel with your animal. But meeting these needs alone will not ensure that you have an enjoyable experience. They should ensure safety, not necessarily pleasure. Be sure to carry a leash with you. This way you can take your pet out and let it walk just before it is loaded onto the flight, and just after it gets off. A way to simplify your trip is to try and keep flights as direct as possible. Shortening the time between destinations will keep your pet more comfortable. Also, it would be wise to try and avoid traveling at especially busy times. This will decrease the likelihood of luggage getting sent to the wrong places, and your pet ending up in a different city then you. To further avoid confusion place your pet’s name on the outside of your travel kennel in an easily readable manner. This will make identification much easier not only for you, but also for any airport employees. It will help them to treat the pet as more then just luggage as they can address it by name and better help it be more comfortable and relaxed. When picking up your pet, after the flight, make sure it stays in the kennel until after you have left the air port. Between the crowds, the stores and other diversions, the airport can be a challenging place to release your animal. Just be ready with your leash as soon as you get outside.

With all of these precautions in mind, traveling with your pet should be simple. Be sure to arrive at the airport with plenty of time to stow your pet comfortably. It is also very important to call your specific airline well in advance to make sure that you are informed of any specific regulations that they might have. Once all of this is completed you should be all set for a wonderful vacation for you and your pets.

Try to eat a lot of organic foods with plenty of B vitamins, calcium and magnesium, some examples are provided below. Eat balanced meals. Avoid: caffeine, caffeine will cause your body to release adrenaline, which causes a lot of the symptoms and sensations associated with anxiety; also avoid fats, starches, alcohol, tobacco, other stimulants, including sugar, especially refined sugar, sugar will cause your body to release insulin; excessive insulin release can cause the body to release adrenaline as well. Salt should be avoided, salt will cause your body to excrete potassium and potassium keeps your nervous system healthy. Instead use substitutes like: lemon, oregano, and basil. Eat food that is high in tryptophans, like turkey, and potassium. Tryptophans assist in producing serotonin, which alters mood safely. L-Theanine found in green tea, provides a natural way to control feelings of anxiety and hopelessness, while strengthening mental focus. Herbal tea is great for anxiety sufferers, add a dash of lemon to green tea to calm your nerves; or have a cup of chamomile tea to de-stress and unwind. A cup of peppermint leaves will serve to take the edge off of raw nerves, assist you to relax, and aid digestion, which will also help relieve the symptoms of anxiety. Drugs and alcohol, although they may seem to provide an escape route from your worries, will only weaken your ability to cope with stress and anxiety.

Therefore, you must keep from falling victim to substances which allow you to temporarily escape your present situation. I recommend you only drink alcohol moderately. Eat a balanced diet. It is better to eat, less, regularly rather than having three large main meals a day; try reducing the size of your main meals and instead snack more often throughout the day; try eating something, healthy, every two or three hours. Drink plenty of fluids - water and juices, or green tea, throughout the day. Do not eat too much red meat, no more than twice a week. Eat more vegetables, mushrooms are especially good, and fruits, like oranges, apples, pears, grapes, peaches, and avocado in particular is good; avoid eating canned fruits, fresh fruit is best; also eat cereals, like wheat, barley, rice, maize, oats and rye. Adequate protein is also very important - balanced meals should ensure that you are getting adequate protein. Amino acids are essential for absorption of protein, and you can get amino acids from foods like beans, eggs, fish and meats.

Sometimes it is hard, or even impossible, to know what is in your food. As such, you could get multi-vitamins; multi-vitamins are typically 100% natural, and also quite affordable. Vitamins and multi-vitamins can be of benefit by providing your body with anything your diet fails to provide you with; B-complex vitamins, in particular, assist in the production of neurochemicals which help the body to produce both serotonin and dopamine, both are essential for safe control of mood, anger, aggression, and behaviour.

B vitamins: B vitamins are important for reducing anxiety. You can get B vitamins from leafy green vegetables, whole grains, like popcorn, oatmeal, whole wheat bread, brown rice, and legumes, like lentils, peas, beans, peanuts, and lupins.

Calcium and Magnesium are also very important: If you are deficient in either calcium or magnesium you will be irritable, suffer heart palpitations, insomnia, and feel weak and nervous. To ensure adequate levels of calcium and magnesium, eat more: sea vegetables, milk, dairy products, sesame, and leafy green vegetables. Add fish oil supplements into your diet. Fish oils reduce depression and anxiety. Also, try and eat food that contains folic acid as this can be very beneficial for anxiety sufferers. Consult your doctor first if you are pregnant or have any other medical conditions. Stay away from fatty food, and eat food that is high in protein. Organic Apple Cider Vinegar may also be of benefit. Note, it is very strong. Try taking one tablespoon twice a day diluted to a comfortable degree in water. Avoid processed foods. If after trying this you still suffer from symptoms of anxiety, you might want to consult a nutritionist.

No doubt there is a certain amount of tension involved as well as apprehension. But you know it cannot go on this way forever.

What makes you so nervous is that everything in cyberspace up to this point has been wonderful. It seems like the first thing the two of you do when you get off work is log on. Then time flies as you chat, laugh console and encourage each other to the wee hours of the morning and beyond. Sure you are tired the next day you go into work but not really. The energy the two of you generate is enough to sustain you thru the day; or at least to that first coffee break.

You connect with your cyberdate like no one you have ever met offline. And in many ways that is what is making you nervous; taking this relationship to the offline world.

While there have been a number of online success stories, you are probably also familiar with many others that did not work. Two people that were the epitome of soulmates online met for the first time in the non cyberspace world and for whatever reason it did not work.

In fact a more accurate description is dating disaster. Maybe one person or both were not totally truthful with each other. It could be that like you and your cyberdate, they talked so much, that when they met face to face there was nothing left to talk about. Or the chemistry online just did not survive the transition to the offline world. It happens.

But you cannot let fear of what might happen stop you from taking that next step. You want to meet this person and they have hinted strongly that they feel the same way.

The truth of the matter is there is no assurance things will work. But that goes for just about everything in this world.

To see if that online chemistry was the real deal stay away from the traditional movie routine. It is tough enough to get to know someone but sitting in a darkened theater for a couple of hours is going to make it that much harder.

Instead mentally go through that catalog of online chats and see if you can suggest something which is fun for both of you while maintaining the interaction you need to get to know each other better. Like miniature golf? That is a good way to share some time together. Stay away however from being overly competitive. With some people any little game makes them aggressive to the point they have to win no matter what. That can be a serious turnoff. Keep in mind this is supposed to be a date not a tournament.

Maybe you both are serious art lovers. Find a museum. Walking around discussing which paintings or sculptures you like and dislike is a very good (and subtle) way to get to know each other.

No matter what you choose make sure it is an environment that you are both comfortable with. Not only does that mean places where you can get to know each other better but safety; namely yours and theirs. If they are who they say they are, then they will greatly appreciate your watching out for them.

After a few false starts with online dating you have finally met someone that you like a whole lot. They could even be that special someone. But there is no way you will ever know that unless you meet them face to face. Yes it can be scary. You are working without a net so there is no guarantee that it will be the greatest date of you life; or even in the top ten.

Do not let any of this dissuade you. In fact be excited. This is your chance to use those online conversations to have an even better time and potentially build a deeper relationship.

How do you persuade someone to do what you want them to do?

A whole world of marketing exists around us trying to do that
every minute of the day. Do you even notice it anymore or, like
your prospects, have you subconsciously set up a system of
“radar defenses” against the daily bombardment of marketing
messages?

Take a minute and count up the advertising methods which fight
for your attention (and money) every day. Just the basic list
includes:

· Yellow page ads

· Newspaper and magazine ads

· Postcards, catalogs, and direct mail circulars in your “snail
mail” box

· Radio pitches interrupting the flow of your favorite songs

· TV ads - about 20 minutes worth per hour now

· Hundreds of storefronts, “mega” malls, and strip malls

· Highway billboards by the thousands

· Circulars hung on your doorknob

· Illegal signs on stop signs and telephone poles

· Legitimate email messages

· Spam email or UCE (unsolicited commercial email)

Just these 11 sources can overwhelm your brain with marketing
messages. Like trapped rats, people develop defenses against
this never-ending onslaught. They throw up a wall or a “radar
defense” that goes into action the minute they smell a “pitch”
or a sales job. Don’t blame them. We all do it!

So how can you get around this psychological wall against the
constant sales and marketing messages? Well, the answer does NOT
lie in hitting people with more frequent and obnoxious
advertising or sly, sneaky tactics. You might get them to trust
you for a minute, but it will backfire in the long run.

You must do two things instead:

1. First, you must establish credibility for yourself and your
business as an expert.

2. Second, you must reduce their fears about doing business with
you.

Doing these two things will get you past their defenses and
allow you the opportunity to persuade them to buy your product.

So how do you accomplish these two “simple” things? What will
win someone’s attention, raise your credibility, and lower their
fear factor all at the same time? The one-word answer really
applies to most everyone.

Trust!

If a seller can get behind your defenses with information which
makes you trust them, then that credibility will carry over into
a sale much of the time.

How can you get this credibility?

Well, take this next fact as online marketing “gospel,” for many
people have proven its effectiveness.

Fact: Publishing and promoting with free articles gives you one
of the most powerful opportunities available to tip the buyer’s
credibility scale in your favor.

How can we prove this works? Quite easily actually. Take a break
from reading this and go check out a newspaper or magazine for a
minute.

Which do you trust more, the ads or the articles? Most people
will choose the articles hands down. Why? Because the articles
don’t try to “sell” you anything. Instead, they hand out useful
information for educational or other practical purposes.

Most of us grew up in a culture which says we can believe and
“trust” what appears in the standard “news” or “information”
format. In other words, if it appears in print, then we can
believe and trust the author.

So go ahead! Use this lifetime of conditioning to your advantage
in selling your products and services!

Very few things will create an atmosphere of trust and
confidence in people as reading one of your articles on a
subject that greatly interests them. It shows you know your
business. It also demonstrates you will do more than just try to
sell them something.

Publishing articles literally lets you fly under their
advertising “radar defenses.”

So remember these points when deciding whether or not to use
articles to promote your business:

1. Few things create as much trust and confidence in the minds
of potential customers as reading an article you wrote on a
subject which specifically and intensely interests them.

2. Articles establish credibility quickly because, right or
wrong, we’ve all been trained to trust the “news.”

3. An article, or series of articles, will differentiate you
from the competition, who bombard people with nothing but sales
messages.

4. Providing content-rich, non-sales-oriented articles will also
help build and solidify your relationship with existing
customers so they give you repeat business.
