If you want to get a big social network and lot of success is by memorizing the names of the people. If you remember the names of the people they will be impressed by you and will always be there to help you. If you will follow the enlisted four steps you can easily remember the names of the people.

1. Commit

Make a commitment by yourself that you will remember the names of the people and it must be done in the conscious state. Don’t blame your memory for forgetting the names as if you want to remember names you can easily do it and you have to do it.

So before going to a party or at any place where you will meet the people prepare your self that you remember all the names and memorize that commitment you had made by yourself.

2. Concentrate

When you are not concentrating at a place and you have a distracted mind than you will not remember the names of the people. So concentrate while the person is telling the name and also form an impression of that person so that you can easily remember him or her.

If you have not listen to the name of that person than apologize from him or her and ask it again and memorize it and if you still cant get the name ask them again with an excuse that you are not able to hear it or understand it.
Portray the impression of the person in your mind, like how he or she looks and how was his or her attitude. Try all the ways to make the impression of that person so that you can memorize it.

3. Repeat

Repetition helps a lot in memorizing the name.
- As soon as you hear the name repeats it.
- Keep repeating it silently in your heart.
- If it is possible comment on the name so that you can get a clue.
- Try to use the name again and again in your conversations
- While leaving talk to the person and use his or her name.
- When you reach back t your home write it down.

4. Associate

Make a link between the name of the person and the image you had created in your mind about that person. Broaden the image and remember few things about the image in your mind with his or her name and if you are not able to make an association among the image and the name than don’t worry and try to make an image that goes with the name of that person.

If you are good at memorizing the images than you can make the image of your choice according the name and than link that image to the characteristics of that person.

All the above written points must be time consuming and will also require a lot of energy but the end product is quite productive so don’t worry about the time and energy.

The most common thing people complain is about their poor memory. Most of the people are unable to recognize the faces of their friends and family members when they meet them after a long period of time and most of them complain about not knowing the names of their family members and colleagues. They may recall faces of the people but find it difficult to remember names of people whom they know which is a big deal for most of the employees as they have to meet different people at different times and may be they meet them once in a month or in more or less time, they may forget the names which is a big issue for them as it will effect their career. Most of the people take it in negative sense and feel bad if you continuously recall their names which are not their actual names.

The problem of forgetting names is a common one which is experienced by almost all the people in different phases of life. This problem is not too big which cannot be solved.

I will try to explain two basic things in this part. It can be easily used to recall the names when we here the other person speak. This will enable you all to remember the names of different people by just listening to them; this is most successful skill which is very beneficial uptil now. The techniques or methods are as follows:

1. The Observational system
2. The Association system

In 1979 a test was taken by the scientists Goldstein in which people were shown a number of photographs of women’s faces, magnified snowflakes and ink bottles. All of the 14 images were shown to the 14 people who participated in the test 3 seconds and were then recalled after 48 hours. It was found faces were easily recognized rather than ink bottles and finally snow flakes.

The Observational system

When meeting the people you need to observe them keenly and you store some points of his or her personality in your mind so that you may save their names in your memory according to their characteristics. For example ‘Maryland’ it can be easily broken in to Mary and Land so it is not very much difficult to remember the name.

Another name ‘Indiana johns’ in this word it can be split in to two one in India and second one in Johns so it can be easily remembered by anyone as India is a country and John is a common name.

The Association system

In it you make an image of that person according to his physical characteristics and later you associate the name with those images. It may be time consuming and hectic but by the end of the day you will observe that your linking had proven fruitful and you can now easily remember the names and the faces of the people.

By applying these techniques you will easily remember the names and faces of your colleagues without the tension that after how long you meet them.

All the people are manifesting something in their daily life, regardless of the awareness about its existence. Manifestation exists in all the aspects of your life, including the selection of clothes, the circulation of money, and even creating and managing relationship in life. it is true, that manifesting is your habit by nature. Every human being is very conscious and powerful towards manifesting.

Now the matter is how to control the manifestation or how can you gain best out of your manifestations. It’s a great reality that those who manifesting consciously gain best in their life. You can too, increase the level of your awareness with the help of consciously manifestations. You can gain a conscious state in most of the time in your life to select the type of energy, to use in every moment of your life, if you are completely aware of the current situation. The manifesting energy is the positive aspect of your success in life. You can build the complete awareness and control the innermost thoughts with the help of increased clear manifestation. There are many ways to gain the control over your thoughts, but the meditation is the best. The main purpose of meditation is to be present in the current situation and use the complete mental approach to tackle any problem. Meditation forces you to concentrate on current situation rather than the films of yesterday or the wishes of tomorrow. The ego driven self sense is the worst enemy of your concentrations, you can get rid of this evil through proper meditation and other means of mind clearing.

You should start your day with the conscious manifesting of your desires. Spending about 10 minutes of focusing on your manifest of the moment, can increase your ability quickly. You should visualize the existence of the idea in the world about your current manifestation. This visualization will help you to gain proper control of your imaginations and thoughts. This control will enable you to manifest everything more accurately in your daily life. You will feel the difference in the results of your daily jobs. You can mange your relationship more accurately than before, the behavior of the money will be changed mostly if not entirely, and most importantly you will get a sound health in results. It is same like an addition to your investment to cash out for a long time in your life. You can choose some words or any phrase to keep you intact with your mind and kick out the unconscious thoughts from your mind. For example; you can ask a question

“What am I going to select now for consciously focusing my brain?” your mind will automatically generate the actual thoughts about the current situation and help you to focus the proper energy on proper events of your choice. These types of questions help you in the growth of manifesting vibrations, to ensure your stability of mind in every situation.

Thoughts are subtle type of conscious energies that are more powerful and beneficial than the strongest weapon of all time. Even a kind of subtle energy in the atoms was used to create the nuclear weapons. This subtle type of atomic energy is even small, but has the power to destroy the complete planet. This subtle energy is produced by the thoughts especially conscious thoughts. All the conscious thoughts are very powerful and very important essence in every creation. In fact, the best entity in the process of manifesting power into matter, in other words you can say free will.

You may have heard of the intelligent thoughts, the truth is that fundamental definition for intelligence is thoughts, thinking and observing itself. You must need thoughts to develop energy in focusing, and than manifesting in matter, although, thoughts are not only the recipe of true manifestation. You may need specific forces to transform them into expressions, emotions are one of them. Perfect emotional desires and focused thoughts are main recipes of manifesting desires. As a result of this process the energy is produced, and when the energy congeals, manifestation starts.

Physical manifestation is always the conclusive result of your focused thoughts. Many people find them unsatisfied with this logic, but if you analyze thoroughly the structure of atomic technology, you will find that atoms consist of empty space mostly. It is a fact that physicists found the atom is a building block matters consist of 99.9999% vacant space. It also have been found that remaining part of matter consist of non-solid type quality of energy. It proves that matter is perfectly an illusion. Matter and atoms present and held together due to their focused thoughts. Whenever, the thoughts lose the focus, matter and atoms simply vanish, as a result, the entire area destroy including the human and all objects of that area.

You can imagine getting a thought with desire of focusing it in the reality without getting physical evidence. The manifestation could be in danger, when you lose the focus of desired experience due to holding for long time. So it is very hard, but not impossible to manifest the thoughts in real while living in realm. You must reduce the distractions to minimum level, gain control over your mind, increase in emotional desire for desired experience, and repeat them regularly to increase the success ratio of your manifesting. The most important part of your manifestation of desire is the specific thoughts. If your thoughts are not specific according to your desire, your manifestation will not get perfect finish. Another important entity in success of manifestation is the law of creations; you must have desires according to the law of creation.

You must understand your status to exactly utilize the thoughts power. In fact, every human being has spiritual power hug in the physical structure. Every human has thought as the most powerful part of his structure. You must use these thoughts wisely to manifest your desires beyond your imaginations.

There are millions of people around the world struggling for the fast sleep, but the question is how to get rid of this problem. The quest for the luxurious life has made the human a restless machine in the world of modern technology. People are running after the money to get as much luxuries as possible. To make money they are working whole day and their brains continuously working in night with lots of thoughts.

Change your diet plans for quick sleep

At first, you need to consider it seriously, and act on with firm attitude. Take a pencil and paper and note down your daily habits at night, especially diet. You must finish your dinner at least two hours before bedtime. Your dinner must not include any heavy formulation of multivitamins. Try to take some amount of carbohydrates which is best aid for sleeping process. You can find carbohydrate in apple, banana, and nuts. All these foods have tryptophan that helps in calm and deep sleep.
You should avoid high protein foods before sleep. A high level of tyrosine exists in the protein that doesn’t allow your mind to fall asleep fast. Spicy foods also cause restless sleep as they take a lot of time to digest. Never try to sleep with empty stomach which is same as you want to sleep with full stomach. Avoid alcohol or any drink contains nicotine at bedtime, they are high value activist for your sleepless nights.

Change your daily routines

Exercise is a best activity for your health, but you should do it in the morning rather than in the night. Exercise gives strength to your body muscles and activates all your systems to the full capacity; it takes more than 4 hours to loosen whole body.
Stress is also a cause of sleeplessness, you should try to divert your concentrations to other objects that please you and reduce your stress.

Lucid dreaming helps you control your dreams the way you want, although not completely, but in most of situations while dreaming. After a hard job of developing your skill on dream recalling, the dream controlling is quite easy and very productive in mental health.
You can gain it through different techniques listed below.

1. The first step of dream control is the awareness, reasons and positive or negative effects of the dream control upon your character. You must consider the dreams as a proper problem and try to examine the types of dreams. You should try to understand the message in the dreams, although most of the dreams are reflections of your daily problems and unsolved thoughts in the mind, but there are some dreams that have specific lessons or indicators toward the solutions of your problem.

2. Slowly start control your thoughts before going to bed and give prior instructions to your mind that how to act on different situations while dreaming.

3. Close your eyes and imagine the scene and try to play that scene according to your wish. Repeat this procedure three to four times before sleep.

4. Verbal commands are other popular techniques for the beginners. Just command your brain with loud voice while closing your eyes, for example; you can order to change the weather from sunlight to cloudy. It is a simple and very effective procedure to reinforce your desires in dream control.

5. Dream spinning is the most effective technique used by the lucid dreamers. It is linked with the navigation of locations or situations. More you get control of your mind more you can navigate through one to another dream scene of your desire. This technique allows you to change your action or location in the dreams. For example; open the door of the room if you find yourself in a room with door, you can get a better situation or your desired location on the other side of that door.

6. Another good technique is the escape out of the dream when you find yourself in danger or if you loose control over your dreams, you should wake up to get rid of that bad dream. Now the matter is how to wakeup with a secure mental approach, you can try to overexcite yourself by doing any extraordinary move in the dream. Most of the time over excitement brings you out of sleep and gives you relief from the dangerous situations in the dreams. If you feel hard to become excited, then you can close your eyes in the dream and clear your senses; eliminate every thought from your mind and keep it calm for sometime, this would also help you to come out of the dream in the waking world. This technique is very effective in getting relief from the bad effects of the bad dreams. You can do a reality test after wake up to check your current situation and location.

Practice makes the man perfect. So keep it in mind and practice daily to become a lucid dreamer.

Train your brain. Regularly "exercising" the brain keeps growing and spurs the development of nerve connections that can help improve memory. By developing new mental skills - particularly complex as learning a new language or learn to play a new musical instrument - and challenge your brain with puzzles and games, you can keep your brain active and improve its physiological function. Try some fun puzzles everyday exercises like crossword puzzles, Sudoku and other games that are easy enough for anyone. Exercise daily. Regular aerobic exercise improves circulation and efficiency throughout the body -- including the brain -- and can help ward off the memory loss that comes with aging. Exercise also makes you more alert and relaxed, and can thereby improve your memory uptake, allowing you to take better mental "pictures". Reduce stress. Chronic stress physically damage the brain, he can remember much more difficult. After prolonged stress, the brain will start to be affected and deteriorate.

Or stressful situations have been recognized by the hypothalamus, which in turn signals the pituitary gland. The pituitary then secretes the hormone adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), which affects the adrenal glands to secrete cortisol and adrenalin later (corticosteroids). Corticosteroids may reduce the blood-brain barrier and damage the hippocampus (memory center). Ironically, the hippocampus controls the secretion of a hormone released from the hypothalamus through the process of negative feedback. When chronic stress, begins to deteriorate, it is not as effective to control the degenerative corticosteroids, reduces the memory. Neurogenesis (the formation of new neurons), there are in fact the hippocampus, but stress to prevent it.

In reality, the stress cannot be removed completely from life, but it can be controlled. Even temporary stresses can make it more difficult to effectively identify the concepts and observe things. Try to relax, regularly practice yoga or other stretching exercises, and consult a doctor if you suffer from chronic stress, as soon as possible.

Eat well and eat right. There are a lot of herbal supplements on the market that claim to improve memory, but none have yet been shown to be effective in clinical tests (although small studies have shown some promising results for ginkgo biloba and phosphatidylserine). A healthy diet, however, contributes to a healthy brain, and foods containing antioxidants -- broccoli, blueberries, spinach, and berries, for example -- and Omega-3 fatty acids appear to promote healthy brain functioning.

- Feed your brain with such supplements as Thiamine, Niacin and Vitamin B-6.

- Grazing, or eating 5 or 6 small meals throughout the day instead of 3 large meals, also seems to improve mental functioning (including memory) by limiting dips in blood sugar, which may negatively affect the brain. Make sure it's healthy stuff. Take better pictures. Often we forget things not because our memory is bad, but because our observational skills need work. A common situation where this occurs (and almost everyone can relate to) is meeting new people. Often we do not really learn people’s names at firsts.

Astral projection is something which rouses most people’s curiosity. It is natural to be slightly afraid or wary of the unknown and this can cause people to worry that there are dangers associated with astral projection. But out of body experiences are really very safe and there are some wonderful benefits. Some of these are outlined below but it is important to realize that experiences of astral travel are unique to each individual, and consequently the benefits are unique too.

Many people are a little fearful of death, as people are naturally scared of the unknown, but those who practice astral projection usually overcome this. Visiting the spiritual plane brings with it a realization that you are not dependent on your physical body and that after you die your soul will still exist. This can also bring comfort if you have lost a love one, as you know that although their physical presence is gone that their spirit lives on, and some practitioners of astral travel have even reported communicating with dead relatives.

This, in turn, can lead to increased spirituality. People who practice astral projection often feel they have a much more profound understanding of the soul and the human condition. With this comes a feeling of inner calm which can lead to decreased stress levels, greater happiness, self-acceptance and an increased zest for life. Aggression and anger will be reduced.

Astral projection has also been associated with a greater increase in memory and skills such as creativity. There is no definitive reason for this but it has been theorized that somehow astral travel stimulates parts of the brain which are not usually active and this can enhance your abilities.

The greatest benefit of astral projection for many people is the sense of excitement and adventure it brings. Half of people who practice it have encountered other beings. These can take the form of white light, angels and spiritual guides. You will experience things that you would never have had the opportunity to do so in physical life.  Astral travel will increase your awareness of the world around you and make you feel more alive.

It is not just your everyday skills that can be improved by astral projection; there is often an increase in psychic powers. Out of body experiences can tap into spiritual energies and lead to greater telepathy, precognition and the ability to sense spirits. Some people who have previously experienced no psychic ability at all suddenly find they can both see and read people’s auras.

Everyone possesses some degree of sixth sense, but in most people the psychic power is undeveloped or lying completely dormant. Individual potential differs from person to person but everyone can benefit from enhancing their abilities. Like any other skill, clairvoyance requires regular practice to perfect it.

One of the reasons why so many people have not tapped into their psychic powers is that the busy pace of modern life means they lack the inner calm and intuition to get in touch with their inner self. In order to overcome this it is necessary to set aside some regular time to relax and meditate, where you will be completely without outside distractions. Ensure that you are comfortable, close your eyes and try to quieting your thoughts. Some people find that some soothing music, burning candles or incense help get them into the right frame of mind for meditation, but this is in no way a requirement and you should do what feels most comfortable for you.

It may take a lot of practice to block out your thoughts and worries while attempting to meditate so you should not give up or feel despondent if you do not feel you have achieved anything on your first few attempts. Once you have got better at it you will start to become more aware of your innermost thoughts and emotions. This will, in time, progress to you seeing images, visions or sensing things. Pay attention to these snippets of information and focus on anything that may seem significant.

Doing this will improve your intuition which is the first step in making the most of your psychic abilities. Eventually you will learn to trust your gut instinct and the more you do that the more you will hear that inner voice giving you guidance about what is to come. Progress in developing the sixth sense varies from weeks to months or even years depending on the individual, but practice will always yield results as you are stimulating untapped potential in previously unused parts of the brain. This may lead on to your inner voice feeding you information regarding other people, prophetic dreams or even seeing other people’s auras.
Some people may eventually reach the level where they may want to start giving psychic readings to other people. It is best to start with practicing on friends and family. Ask for honest feedback about accuracy. Even the most accurate psychic reader cannot guarantee their information is correct 100 percent of the time, so you should not feel embarrassed if you make a lot of mistakes when you are starting out.

The human mind is a very powerful thing. Developing psychic ability is not easy as it requires a lot of practice and dedication, but once you start to tap into your clairvoyant powers the effort becomes very rewarding.

I have talked to many people who tell me that they manage to astral project and get beyond their physical body. Then disaster strikes and they lose control of the whole experience. They tell me that they fade in and out of lucidity, losing their conscious awareness, everything becomes a bit fuzzy and the end result is that they find themselves back in their physical body. This problem arises if your chakras aren’t properly tuned and the energy isn’t flowing or the energy is simply not enough. Your computer or phone wouldn’t work unless connected to a good energy source, the same goes for your body and your ability to consciously astral project.

The energy source that is needed for astral projection is the Kundalini energy.  A lot of people think that Kundalini is a different energy than your chi but I would like to share my experience and what I think and a few tips, so I have done a lot of energy work and astral travel, which I think had a lot to do with it happening for me, so it started out as I would lay down and close my eyes, and my root chakra would open and just start pouring in energy after a few experiences. With that, just laying around or reading a book, I felt it in my navel, but never felt it in my solar plexus. I imagine it probably happened in a trance state or before or after an astral travel. Well, about 2 weeks ago I was reading a book and my heart chakra started pounding, throbbing, and fluttering, so I laid down, closed my eyes, and it flooded up my throat chakra and choked me.  I relaxed and let it happen, I started raising energy and pushed it up it was a strobing white light it didn't take long to flood the top of my head the energy and pressure was intense I relaxed, and let it happen; my head felt like it was about to explode, then it felt like it busted through the top about 3 holes, it felt like it was leaking out of my head, soon my energy body popped out the top of my crown; during this experience I wasn't out long but had a lucid clarity I have not before. the next day I felt as my energy body was different they say Kundalini then settles in the brow chakra, well it would seem so either that or the brow has evolved every day since I have had a lot of activity in my brow anytime in reading or thinking or just hanging out it feels like its bubbling since then.

I have performed one healing with success and have attempted 3 remote views with success it becomes easy to visualize and visions during meditation are more intense now it would seem to me that the energy is your chi as you do energy work and astral travel your energy body evolves and I believe your energy capacity grows and with one chakra at a time it raises and evolves it, if you want to raise Kundalini I would suggest a lot of energy work; yoga is good, astral travel for sure, reading, study, learn, treat people kindly, and with respect for their own evolution, experience as much as you can be thankful for life and love .work your root chakra more than the others to really open it up to pour in the energy your root chakra will then extend for what seems like miles. When activated, you will feel it strong all the way past your feet and on out, it should be the first to evolve and expand and pour enough energy in, to evolve the others.

Astral Projection complements life and will enhance your life on Earth, in ways that you have never imagined. It is a whole new world out there in the astral plane.  There are many things to see, learn, and experience, so enjoy yourself.  It is important to keep a balance, equilibrium between your astral adventure and your physical adventure. For it is in this that lies the path to our spiritual evolution.

During sleep, the energy body, also known as the etheric body or vitality sheath is put on charge. It expands and opens in order to accumulate and store energy. The energy body can, normally, only do this in its expanded state during sleep. Once expanded, the chakras trickle power, in the form of etheric matter, into the energy body. During this recharging process the astral body separates and tunes into the astral dimension where it can create and experience dreams. If this separation is done consciously, or if you become aware after it, you can take some control over it. It then becomes an OOBE or astral projection.

The main differences between an OOBE and astral projection:

The OOBE (out of body experience) is a real time projection close to the physical world. This often occurs as part of a near death experience. This is where a person is knocked out of their body as a result of some kind of severe trauma, i.e. car accident, surgery, heart attack, child birth etc. OOBE peopleare aware of things happening in the real world, in real time; such as conversations and events centered around, or near to, their physical body. In many cases, these events and conversations are accurately reported by the person after they have returned to their body.

Note: The OOBE is slightly different from astral projection because of its real time, objective aspect. This is caused by the astral body containing a large amount of etheric matter, which holds it close to the physical world.

There are two main causes of real time OOBE:  a person's body is near death, or thinks it is, which causes a large amount of etheric matter to be channeled into the astral body in preparation for the death process.The person has active chakras, which are doing a similar thing, i.e. channeling etheric matter into the astral body. Having active chakras can be a natural ability, or it can be developed by training.

Note: You can project consciously, and have a real time OOBE if enough etheric matter is generated by the chakras. In an OOBE, reality is perceived as objective (real) and time is normal (real time).

Technically, when you project into the physical world in real time as in an OOBE, it is really into the boundary area of the buffer zone, between the physical and astral dimensions. If the astral body contains enough etheric matter it can exist only slightly out of phase from reality. This means the projection is in real time and so close to the physical dimension as to be indistinguishable from it.

Note: I have checked this many times, by projecting, in real time, during the day and scouting my local area for road works, accidents, incidents etc, then verifying the accuracy of my findings afterwards. There are strong natural barriers to conscious, real time projection, the OOBE, in the physical world.

The amount of etheric matter generated and channeled to the astral body, is one of them. It limits the duration of any real time projection to the degree  of chakra development and control. This is where the astral body is projected into the astral dimension, where things are quite different from the real world. Time is distorted and extended, i.e., an hour in the astral can be like a few minutes in the physical dimension, depending on what part of the astral travel you are in. Reality is fluid and changeable.

Astral Projection (AP') is an automatic reflex, built in to your body and mind. To trigger it, while fully conscious, there are three major requirements:The ability to relax your body 100% and stay awake, you have to be able to shift your consciousness point outside of your body, and you need enough mental and psychic energy to maintain control over the projection and not slip into the Dream State.  Together, these will trigger the automatic projection reflex for a full powered AP'. There are a few minor conditions but these can be varied to suit your experience and surroundings.

Chakra stimulation: Chakras are centers for the transformation of energy. Each chakra transforms the raw life energy of the planet into a different type. As you pull this energy up through you with your mental hands, stop at each chakra and imagine your mental hands opening it. Pull the energy up through it to the next one and so on. Repeat this a few times, you may not feel anything at first but with practice you will feel a fluttering or pulsing under your skin.
