How Does Scientology Help Others? It's so simple!
A new client called me yesterday in total despair. Her America Online connection was trashed. Since she used AOL for her home office accounts, her business was stalled. If that wasn't enough, this poor woman had already spent hours on the phone with tech support from AOL and her high speed internet provider. By the time she called me, she had passed hysteria and was easing into a complete apathy over the whole matter.
The job was tedious and time consuming. We were on phone and running a virtual computer consultation for almost four hours. Finally, we had to compromise and use an older version of AOL just to get the connection back. I know this new client was hoping for a quick and inexpensive answer - but the solution was long and pricey.
Put yourself in her shoes. How would you feel at then end of such a journey? Hopeless? Depressed? Frustrated? By the time we finished, my new client was cheerful and enthusiastically talking about business associates whom she wanted to refer to me. The job was a nightmare, yet the client was in a great mood - how the hell did that happen?
As a computer consultant, I worked on the technical problem. As a Scientologist, I helped the person with the problem. All I did was raise her Affinity and Reality through Communication until she was back to a point where she could enjoy life and not be stressed by the computer.
How did I do this? Simple. I talked with her and listened to her thoughts, concerns and frustration. Simple communication. Not surprisingly, less than half of the conversation was about computers. More of it was about technical support personnel who wouldn't listen to her and didn't seem to care. Caring (affinity) was the next point. While we talked, my new client knew that I was genuinely interested in her concerns and cared about what happened to her. Finally, I helped her to grasp what had happened and why (reality). She was very upset about her inability to understand this AOL/Computer problem and a little education went a long way. As a result, her Affinity, Reality and Communication for myself, the computer and herself were all much higher - and she was ready to take on the world.
How did she respond when she learned I was a Scientologist? The subject never came up. I wasn't trying to "do Scientology" - I just saw that she was sad, wanted to help her and knew that I could. The rest was easy.
