Using of unsciousmind

Our unconscious mind is like a powerful computer. But we need to add some programmes, if we want to run computer. We can input the programmes by two ways in the computer of our unconscious mind.

1. We can use readymade programme.
OR
2. We can make our programme ourself

You may think what is batter between these? And what readymade programme means? If we want something from our life, we may take help of astrology or ritual rites- that is readymade programme. But two points we need to keep in mind, while using this programme.

1. We need to pay money to buy the programme.
2. There is no guarantee of the quality of the programme from whom we have bought it.

Sometimes we may use extremely wrong programme.
Let’s take up an example to understand readymade programme properly.

Once a man goes to a great astrologer. The astrologer gave him a bad news. He said, “You are going to die just after this month.” The man has great faith in this astrologer. So, he sets up his mind as he is going to die just after the month. Throughout the month in his speech, in his thoughts and in his behaviour he only saw his death. And what happen!!!! The man dies by heartatthck after the month. This is called readymade programme.

The man accepts the astrologer’s programme through his conscious mind and sends it to his unconscious mind and then during the whole month through his thoughts, speech and behaviour he sends massages of his death to his unconscious mind and turned the matter into reality. Because only and only unconscious mind has control over death.

Thus, there is no guarantee of quality in readymade programmes. You may use other negative readymade programmes too and that could to your life. So, it is batter to make our programme ourself. And for that we need not to pay money as well as we can make it in a batter way as per our needs and there is also a guarantee of quality. But the question is –
How to make our programming ourself for our unconscious mind?????

There are eight steps to make the programme. Each step is necessary and important.
1. Determine your goal.
2. Concentrate on your aim.
3. Start thinking that you are definitely getting your aim.
4. Give your positive feelings to your aim.
5. Sit relax and try to visualize that how you are getting your goal.
6. Give self instructions.
7. Use sources like meditation, fasting … as many as you can.
8. Wait for the results.

Process Of Communication

1. Explain the term encoding, decoding, channel, medium, sender (Tx), receiver (Rx) context (message), feedback as they are used in describing the process of communication. Use the five phases of communication process to analyse miscommunication you have recently had with a classmate / teacher / family member or friend. What was the idea were you trying to share? How did you encode and transmit the message? Did the receiver get the message? Did the receiver correctly decode the n/message? How do you know? Bases your analysis, identify and explain the barriers that prevented your successful communication in this instance.
   
   The word communication is derived from the Latin word ‘communis’ which means “to share” that is sharing of ideas, concepts, feelings and emotions.
   
   Man, who is a social animal, is constantly interacting with other individuals or himself. The science of communication is almost as old as man himself. From him immemorial, the need to share or to communicate had been felt. Different vehicles / channels were identified and subsequently improvised for the purpose of transmission of ideas and concepts. A study of these channels enables us to gain an insight into the process of communication. Communication is much more than an understanding of the spoken or written language. It is a composite of symbol gestures and illustrations that accompany either the spoken or the written words.
   
   The process of communication:
   Whether you are speaking or writing, listening or reading, communication is more than a single act. Instead it is a chain of events that can be broken into five phases.
   
   1 )Sender : (Encoder, Speaker).
   The person who initiates the communication process is normally referred to as the sender (encoder, speaker). The sender has an idea. He conceives an idea and wants to share it. From his personal data bank he selects words for his idea that is encoding the message and finally transmits them to the receiver. The entire burden of communication then rests upon the sender or encoder. His choice of images and words, and the communication of the two is what goads the receiver to listen carefully. In this process a number of factors come into play, primary among them being an understanding of the recipient and his needs. If the message can be formulated in accordance with the expectations of the receiver, the level of acceptance will be higher.
   2) Receiver : (Decoder, Listener)
   The receiver receives messages from sender. He receives an encoded message which he tries to decode. The receiver attends to the message and decodes (try to understand the message) the words or symbols into ideas. The process of decoding is the reverse of the process of encoding.
   
   The meaning that a receiver gives to the words is influenced by his knowledge, intelligence, past experience and relation with sender. The receiver’s functions are attending to the message, interpreting and evaluating the message storing, receiving and responding.
   
   3) Context (message):
   Message is the encoded idea transmitted by the sender. The formulation of the message is very important. The words or symbol of the message effect the receiver. The words should be based on the requirements of the listener so that its significance is immediately grasped. The minute the receiver finds his goals codified in the message, he sits up, listens and responds. The message thus has made an impact.

The sender has na idea --- The idea becomes a message --- The idea is transmitted --- The receiver gets the message --- The receiver reacts and sends feedback---------


4) Medium
Medium is an important element of communication. The term is medium and its plural is ‘media’. The medium of communication could be telephone, computer, letter, memo, report or face to face exchanging the ideas also.
Channel
The message is transmitted. To physical transmit the message to the receiver one has to select a communication channel. This channel could be verbal, non verbal – spoken or written.

The channel and medium that you choose should be depend on your message, location of your audience, your need for speed and the formality of the situation.

5) Feedback:
Feedback is the most important component of communication. The receiver reacts and sends feedback to the sender. Effective communication takes place only when there is a feedback. Feedback is your receiver’s response, that final link in the communication chain. Feedback is the key element in the communication process because it enables you to evaluate the effectiveness of your message. If your audience doesn’t understand what you mean, you can tell by the response and refine your message.

Sender---------channel----------Receiver

In nut shell, the sender, according to his idea, behaviour, pattern and intention, selects a message, encodes and transmits it to the receiver through a medium. It can be oral, verbal or non-verbal. As soon as the message reaches the receiver, he decodes it and gives an internal response to the perceived message. It is noteworthy that the response is not in relationship to the original message. Here the first phase completes of the communication process.

In the second phase, the receiver formulates his message, encode it and transmits it to the original sender – now turned receiver. This stage referred to as providing feedback and is most crucial unless and until there is feedback – be it in the verbal or the non verbal form – we cannot say that effective communication has taken place. If the feedback is in tune with the original intent of the sender, communication processed without a hitch.

Every time the process of communication does not go smoothly. Sometimes the process becomes so complex that it bound to suffer from setbacks. They are known as barriers because they create impediments in the progress of the interaction. But identification of these barriers is extremely important. According to the role observed by the two participants let us categorize the barriers as:
· sender oriented
· receiver oriented

Just before few days I had a miscommunication with my friend Reena. On 17th Nov. I had an idea for going on a picnic. I went to her house and had discussion on it. We decided to go to Baroda and visit ‘Kamati Bagh’. I told Reena that on 21st Nov. We shall visit Baroda. I will come to your hourse to pick you at 10:00 a.m so, please be ready on time she was agreed. For next three days I continue made a ring and recall her I said, you just get ready. I am coming to pick up you.

On 20th nov. I thought of going on shopping at 9.00 a.m. I rang up Reena and said, ‘I am coming to your house to pick up you within an hour. You just get ready. When I went to her house she was ready. While leaving her house she told her mother that she would be late at the evening so not to worry. I asked her surprisingly for the reason of being late. She replied that as we are going Baroda can’t we be late. I assumed and told we are not going Baroda right now. We are going there tomorrow. Tomorrow is 21st Nov. and right now we are going for shopping. Reena said to me, ‘you told me to get ready. You are going to pick up me: so, I thought that the plan might be changed and today we are going to Baroda. I was about to complete my sentence but you said O.K. and put the receiver down. Really it was nothing but a miscommunication.
The idea is discussed by the friends .

This type of miscommunication is called over communication. It is referred to a sender oriented barrier. It was not a smooth communication. Lets see by a model how the miscommunication occurred?

• The sender has an idea of going to Boroda----The idea is discussed by the friends---It is an oral message---The receiver gets the message---She gives positive feedback----------
  
  
  But the same communication had been between we two friends for continuously two - three days on telephone. In between I have an idea for going to shopping and I again called up Reena. I have just started my words and about to say for an idea of shopping she had lost her interest in listening my word with repetition of the same words. ‘You just get ready, I am coming to pick up you – she thought about going to Baroda. So, here the two ideas mixed up and miscommunication took place. So, this repetition of one sentence is called over communication and this over communication creates miscommunication. This over communication is a sender oriented Barrier.
  
  There are other sender oriented Barriers also. They are:
  
  Barrier ---Causative factor ---Remedies
• Loss in impact ---Badly expressed message ---Think prior
• Ineffective group of message ---Loss in transmission--- Remove physical noise
• Misunderstood statements ---Semantic problem--- Use simple language
• Use of collaborative effort ---'I – attitude’ ---Minimize usage of ‘I’
• Grouping for the right message ---Over / under communication ---Make the quantum of communication just – right
• Biased communication ---Prejudices ---Formulate message with an open mind
  
  

The constant practice on the part of the sender can remove those barriers. Some of the rules for over coming sender oriented barriers are as follow:

-Plan and clarify ideas:
Ideas should be carefully formulated before beginning any kind of communication. This can be done by following a few steps. First is the test thinking. It means the idea that you want to sent your audience, first discuss it among your colleagues. If you find any logical error sort it out. In this process the concepts of others can also be collated and incorporated to make the communication richer and more fruitful then you need to replan your message. This practice makes the sender a very good communicator.

- Create a climate of trust and confidence.
In order to win the trust and confidence of the receiver, the sender has to put in extra effort. So that the listener like to pay attention to all that is being said and try to grasp the import of the message.

- Time your message carefully
Different occasions and different hours necessitate a change in the encoding of the message. The sender has to be careful of the time when and the place where he makes his statement.

- Reinforce words with action:
Whatever statements are made, should be reinforced by action on the part of the sender. There should be harmony between the two transmittal and action.

- Communicate efficiency
The communication can only be effective when the sender gets feedback from the receiver.

Once all barriers to communication have been overcome, communication, it is said has been meaningful and purposeful.

There are also some Receiver Oriented Barriers . They are :

Barrier ---Causative factor ---Remedies

• Dichotomy in reception and comprehension ---Poor retevition ---Jot down points
• Partial grasp of topic ---Inattentive listening ---Keep the mind open
• Distancing form of the speaker ---Tendency to evaluate ---Delay evaluation
• Lack of interest ---Differences in interests and attitudes ---Find an area of interest
• Mental turbulence ---Conflicting information ---Check reliability and validity
• Super attitude ---Differing status / position / self experience ---Listen to ideas
• Mental black ---Resistance to change ---Be open to changes
• Lack of provision of correct feedback ---Refutations and arguments ---Enger into healthy discussions

Most of the receiver oriented barriers are best overcome by improving listening skills and learning strategies of giving feedback.
- Listening is a skill that needs to master. Everyone cannot be a good listener. One of the primary essential for developing good listening skills is cultivation of a positive attitude.
- The listener should develop on abilities to concentrate the speaker. The listener even miss few words of the speaker, there creates some ‘miscommunication’.
- To be a good listener, start involving in the communication. You have to pay attention and enter into question answer sessions. It will be helpful to listener – receiver and in between for fruitful communication the receiver should maintain eye contact.
- The body language at the time of listening should also be conductive to the communication process. chances are high that there would be an improvement in the listening by body postures.
In short, we can say that mankind is helpless without communication. The process of communication is very important. Sometimes the barriers are working in the communication process and the miscommunication occurs between sender and receiver. So, there are some points to keep in mind for smooth and successful communication.
