This was the perfect mountain getaway. The view is gorgeous! Had all the amenities. My husband is an avid mountain biker and loved how close the trails were to the cabin. Will definitely be back!BelindaOctober 2016
Great location & value. Cherokee & Bryson city have good food choices but kitchen & grill on property also provide food options.CharisseDecember 2016
Great place! Absolutely recommended!SarahNovember 2016
Amazing place to stay in Bryson City with inspiring mountain views. The cabin was clean with private porches and jacuzzi. The bed is very comfortable, and the kitchens have everything you need. Definitely our go-to place for our trips in the future. Truly a hidden gem in the Smokey Mountains.AndreiSeptember 2016
The treehouse was the perfect place to relax and celebrate the new year! It was exactly what we were looking for. It was secluded and relaxing yet close enough to be able to easily drive into town. We were so impressed with the cleanliness of the cabin and all of the amenities that it included. We will definitely be back soon!AndrewJanuary 2017
This cabin was perfect for a relaxing getaway! It offered the perfect mix of seclusion while still being close to with many area attractions. The fireplace and hot tub were our favorite amenities. We enjoyed spending our anniversary in the beautiful mountains of western North Carolina.KimberlyDecember 2016
Seamless arrival and checkout. Inside the treehouse was quaint. Outside was beautiful. Hot tub was clean and perfect as the weather has turned cooler. Even more perks such as hiking trail and 'yard' with a beautiful overlook. Wifi is a bit spotty. All in all a nice getaway!LindsayOctober 2016
The property was clean and beautiful. Great ammenities like a grill and hot tub. 10 out of 10 would stay again.TylerDecember 2016

Great home for a family getaway. Beds are very comfortable. Open floor plan allows everyone to be together. And the views are beautiful. And the road is very walkable for taking hikes. The kids loved having the hot tub and the fireplace was so nice to have too. I would definitely recommend this home if you are looking for a relaxing getaway.ElizabethDecember 2016
We had a fantastic time at Rocky Creek Cottage. A beautiful home. My grandsons loved their room because they said it was a "cabin". Bet you know which room they stayed in!! The beds were heavenly. My daughter-in-law loved the bedding and snuck a peak at the tags so she could purchase some of the same. It rained all weekend, so we thoroughly enjoyed the inside fireplace. Maria answered all my questions quickly and even ensured we had a crock pot so we could make soup! Thanks so much for a wonderful time.TheresiaDecember 2016
Adorable place to stay in, perfect for a family trip or just a couples get away!ChristineDecember 2016
It was wonderful. Everything was exactly as it was described in the listing. We all really enjoyed and looking forward to future trips.RanaDecember 2016
Great place! Will go againAliciaDecember 2016
We got an upgrade to another Cabin called Cloud 8; it was an amazing weekend with group of friends. Very nice cabin and well-maintained, the location was tranquil and just what I needed.SzutingFebruary 2017

Great home, great location, all around great time. Will be back very soonGregFebruary 2017
This was a great romantic get away. There was so much to be seen, and things to do. I would recommend this cabin to friends it was nice clean and really set the mood for the weekend. We will be returning soon.TimFebruary 2017

Such an amazing cabin with an amazing view. Felt so welcomed and we would definitely stay again! Thank you!!AshleyDecember 2015
This cabin was perfect for a quick trip away from the city for my husband and me! The view was unbelievable and the cabin was the perfect size for a couple. We loved being close enough to visit multiple areas around Fontana - Bryson City, Nantahala, and Smoky Mountain National Park. We can't wait to come back some day!AmberMarch 2016
The cabin was wonderfully private, clean, and incredibly intuitive and easy to book, stay at and check out from. The fully stocked kitchen and state of the art grill were highlights as we brought all of our fresh ingredients and cooked warm delicious meals each night. Perfectly located close to many different hikes and tourist destinations, the cabin was an excellent stay for mid-week vacationers like ourselves. The beautiful views that the ads promised were not disappointing as we watched the sunset each night and saw the sun hit the hills each morning. Great accommodations and an excellent experience. Thank you!IlgizMarch 2016
The place was absolutely perfect! Cozy, gorgeous view,and very clean! The hot tub and living room had stunning views of the Smoky Mountains! Will definitely book again!HillaryApril 2016
We couldn't have asked for a more enjoyable cabin experience for our first time in the smoky mountains. Kathleen responded to all of my emails and questions promptly and sent specific directions to the cabin which were very helpful. The cabin was clean and ready for us upon arrival! The kitchen was well stocked and we were able to cook meals all week without any problems. The view from the cabin is stunning - it never got old! We enjoyed playing games, sitting on the porch, relaxing in the hot tub, and lounging by the fireplace. Despite having another cabin nearby, the location was remote and very private which we appreciated! We were also able go for walks, hikes, and scenic drives in the area easily without too long of a drive. We would definitely return!JessicaJanuary 2016
Absolutely an amazing get-away. The cabin was amazing, the views, spectacular, and the stars are something poets write about. Hummingbirds and bees were our morning and evening music, and I left some part of me there. I will absolutely book this again as soon as I know my availability.Brooke HSeptember 2016
Nothing but wonderful things to say about our stay! The view from the living room of the magestic mountains with the fireplace roaring is something we will never erase from our memory. We loved that it was so cozy, just the perfect size for the two of us. All the pots and pans were clean and looked brand new, we made breakfast each morning, sitting on the porch drinking coffee watching the fog rise from the valley like a veil to show off the true beauty of the mountains. We used the grill to make steaks one night as well. We hardly wanted to leave to see town because everything we needed was right in the cabin! The stars at night were like clusters of diamonds, it's a rare sight to see and still be so close to town. The drive in down needmore was just as pretty as the view. We hope to come back for many anniversaries to come!KelleyOctober 2015
My husband and I decided to get out of town, just the two of us, for Thanksgiving week. We wanted something secluded, with a hot tub + full kitchen, and mountain views. Driving up the mountain was a little nerve wracking for us, but we kept in touch with Kathleen and she gave excellent directions and we knew to expect the steep inclines on the way up :) The cabin was very clean on our arrival and the kitchen was well stocked! We still wanted to cook a Thanksgiving meal so a full, well equipped kitchen was very important to us. We were able to cook pork, baked mac and cheese, pumpkin pie, green bean casserole, and stuffing! :) There was also a grill outside for us to use. The mountain views from the cabin were so beautiful!! We mostly stayed in, cooked, enjoyed each other's company, and soaked in the hot tub :) If you want to get out and explore there's still a lot to do and see. The cabin is about 20 minutes from Bryson City and 30 minutes to The Road to Nowhere trails.JuliaNovember 2016

Nice place to get away from it all. Pretty high up on the mountain so I would suggest going when there is nice weather. Cabin looks just like the photos.JosephOctober 2016
Tim responded quickly to all questions/inquiries, and the Treehouse C was perfect for the two of us. We will definitely stay here again!SheliaAugust 2016
The accomadation is lively, I was surprised that there was no cleaning service especially as it's an expensive place to stay. There isn't much in the town expect for white water rafting and things which is what we wanted to do so this accomadation was perfect for that.MarySeptember 2016
This cabin was absolutely amazing! My partner and I felt completely at home in this cabin retreat. It was everything we wanted! The amenities were wonderful, the cabin was beautiful, and the area was lovely. The trees were beautiful this time of year as well. Tim was fast to respond to all our questions, and very accommodating, even allowing for early check-in and late check-out. We will 110% be staying here again!CaraNovember 2016

My boyfriend and I booked this stay for a romantic NYE weekend. And it was nothing shy of perfect! Even better in person than in photos. Thank you for a beautiful, perfect, smooth stay! We will be back:)KirstenJanuary 2017
Maria's, place is great! It is a newly built cabin (smells of fresh wood as you walk in front door) high up on the mountain managed by a local mountain vacation resort company. The place is well thought out and setup for a great weekend getaway. My fiancé and I enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub, making s'mores over the fire pit, cooking on the grill while taking in views from the back porch, and mountain biking at the Tsali trails (10 mins away). On a clear night you can look up and see the sky glowing with stars (wish I would have brought my telescope!). We would definitely stay again.JosephFebruary 2017
Great cabin that is secluded and serineJeffreyDecember 2016
布赖森市(Bryson City)
Absolutely beautiful home. Wonderfully secluded but easy to get to the gorgeous surroundings and also grocery stores, etc. The host was communicative and responsive throughout the process. The house itself was well-stocked, the beds were very comfortable, the fire pit was fantastic as was the hot tub. The wrap-around porch was totally gated, which was great for kids and pup. Everything you could want in a getaway.EmilyOctober 2014
Enjoyed cabin! Great location, easy acces to Tsali Trails, Fontana, and NOC!!!ChristopherJune 2016
The reservation was canceled 6 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.DavidOctober 2014
Stunning house in the mountains. Really enjoyed the evenings sitting on the rocking chairs on the front porch, watching the sunset. The location is perfect for rafting on the Nantahala river or mountain biking in Tsali as we did. Both are short 10 minute drives from the house. We really enjoyed our stay.RibkaApril 2016
We came here for our honeymoon and Karen's place was wonderful! Very clean and spacious. We loved the peace and quiet, and the scenic view from the deck. The hot tub was the best! Everything at the house was as expected, if not better, and we greatly enjoyed our stay. We would definitely come back. Thanks Karen! There is a very friendly cardinal who likes to come by during the day and bang on the windows. While this is cute at first, he does start up pretty early in the morning so beware if you are coming here to catch up on your sleep...And just FYI, while it didn't bother us, the water here does smell of sulphur.ArthurJuly 2015
Allen's Retreat is a wonderful spot and we thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay. Karen is a very responsive host and the property was exactly as described with full amenities, a great view and fantastic location!TracyApril 2016
We had a wonderful time at Allen's Retreat! We celebrated Thanksgiving and rode on the Polar Express. Such great memories were made for our family. The house was beautifully decorated, and the wrap around porch with gates was great for the toddler and the dog! The hot tub and firepit were also well loved during our stay.KimNovember 2015

Everything was amazing, in this cabin. They were very patient with me, when I called because I could not get in, only to discover that I was at the wrong house. LOL the house was clean and lovely, the beds were comfortable, The kitchen was well stocked, and the hot tub worked fine.JaimeOctober 2016
布赖森市(Bryson City)
Amazing spot! I rented this house for a birthday weekend with 10 people and it was everything we could have asked for. The location was quiet, secluded, and Kent provided excellent instructions/ directions. The bedrooms provided ample sleeping space and privacy, the shower with the bay window was an absolute delight, and the spacious deck provided more than enough space for 10 adults to spend the weekend together in comfort. The hot tub, hammock, porch swing, and fire pit were perfect for the ultimate relaxation in front of a breathtaking view of the Great Smoky Mountains. I will definitely return!!AbbyNovember 2015
I loved that Kent's house was clean and spacious. Kent and Sarah were available by phone or text if we needed anything. The house was beautiful and sitting on top of a mountain. I was able to watch the sunrise from the front porch.ShayMarch 2016
The house is exactly as described! We had everything we needed for a wonderful fall weekend in the mountains for our family of 7. Kent was very easy and quick to communicate with for any questions we had. Thanks!MorganOctober 2015
This house is absolutely as awesome as you think it is going to be!! It really feels like you are in the middle of nowhere and yet just a short drive from a ton of great hiking trails and sights to see. We came with our two young boys, a teenage girl and another family with a young boy and everyone said it was just about the best trip ever. The boys enjoyed hunting for toads and exploring the hills. And even the teen girl had fun making fires and just enjoying the gorgeous view from the porch. This was a great place to slow down with our family and get away from it all. We can't wait until we can come back again! Go check out Deep creek trials, hit clingmans dome, Cherokee Reservation the Nantahala River and tons of trials and stops in between.KathrynApril 2016
I stayed here with my two co-workers and it was wonderful. We stay in a lot of hotels and this was such a nice break from that. We roasted marshmallows in the fire pit with wood that was chopped and ready to go. We bbq on the grill. Everything was super comfortable the view is incredible!KristieAugust 2014
Wonderful home and what a beautiful view each morning from the back deck. The house was well stocked with anything we would need while visiting including plenty of towels and cleaning products (always a plus!) as well. Loved the proximity to Bryson City but at the same time, the seclusion of the home. It was perfect and Kent was a wonderful host. Thanks again!SummerMarch 2016
This gorgeous gem in the mountains was exactly as described, and since we went in the peak of the fall foliage the sights were out of this world! The sun rises over the mountains in the distance each morning - couldn't ask for a better way to enjoy our morning coffee. We had a mini-family reunion of sorts here, as a half way point between Nashville and Charlotte. Bryson City was close by and was a quaint, nice little town with all the amenities you could need. The house itself was more space than we needed for the 5 of us and we had plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was well equipped for the cooking that we did together each evening. My dog loved romping around in the yard and we even got a couple of visits from a friendly dog neighbor named Elwood. Overall, we'd highly recommend staying here and plan to be back!CaitieOctober 2016
What a lovely home! The private, secluded mountain view is incredible. We didn't use the hot tub or firepit because the weather didn't allow for it, but either would have added a final nice touch to a wonderful retreat.gregoryOctober 2014

The Treehouse was superb. Private, first class all the way. We have recommended your place to 2 friends already. Thank you...JAugust 2016
Where to begin! Everything was just wonderful! We spent the day in Bryson City and loved all of the shops and restaurants in the tiny town. We picked up dinner on the way to the cabin and had no problem finding the location of the watershed resort. The private parking was just feet away from the cabin with a place to have a bonfire welcoming us. The cabin is very spacious and was clean and neat. We had everything we needed to grill our dinner. We watched the big Clemson game on the satellite TV and it worked perfect for us the whole time. We ended our night by relaxing in the hot tub. It was so relaxing and wonderful! Before our check out we hiked to the waterfall and that was beautiful. We will definitely be coming back and would recommend this place to anyone!OliviaOctober 2016
We had a great stay in Treehouse D. Everything was very clean and well maintained. Beautiful fireplace!MakenzieMarch 2017
Loved the treehouse! Great cozy, romantic place!MariaDecember 2016
The Treehouse was beyond perfect and more than we could've imagined for our stay!!! My favorite thing about it was the deck (which was very spacious and private) and the fireplace as well as all of the decor that added to the atmosphere! I would highly recommend this place and hopefully we will be back again!KaitlynDecember 2016
Great trip, very easy!AnthonyNovember 2016
Great location and really enjoyed the privacy of treehouse D. Everything was nice, clean, and updated. Perfect place to sit in the hot tub on a cold winter day. Only 10 mins to town where we enjoyed restaurants and a trip on the Polar Express. Will come back again soon.DouglasDecember 2016

Dave was very responsive prior to our arrival. The cabin is very remote, but he provided excellent directions. We only used one of the beds, but both looked very clean and the one upstairs was very comfortable. The hot tub was even warmed up already when we arrived.RachelMay 2014
Dave was very accommodating and thoughtful in setting up the cabin for our arrival. Though we didn't meet him in person, he wrote out an extended set of directions on how to work everything from the fireplace flue to the hot-tub. There were sheets, towels, firewood enough for our whole stay, etc. He even had a Christmas Tree set up and decorated. We found the cabin to have everything the description said it would and the pictures on airbnb were totally fitting of the space. Dave was also reachable by telephone if we had any questions and responded promptly. Also, among the DVD's there, we watched Labyrinth, which was a nice blast from the past.AndreiJanuary 2015
We had a great 1 night stay at Bears Choice, the hot tub was great to sit in after a long drive, and it was a very peaceful location! Dave got in touch with me very quickly and gave me all of the information I needed. His directions on how to to find the cabin were very easy to follow and we had no trouble finding the place. Also, any questions we had were responded to very quickly via text, which was very nice!AlexJune 2014
The location of the house is nice, especially if you are going to the Nantahala River/Outdoor Center. I recommend paddleboarding at Finger Lake (super close).VictoriaJuly 2015
Dave's house is located up a mountain side about 15 minutes west of downtown Bryson City. It is located on a gravel road with only 3 other homes, none of which you can see when in the house nor on the patio/hot tub. This gives you ultimate peace and seclusion. We enjoyed all the activities of nearby B.C. and Nantahala Gorge: breweries, yummy Mexican food, zip lining, hiking, (URL HIDDEN) all at your finger tips here! The house is a typical cabin in the woods, large windows and nice living spaces. Comfy mattress, hot water, washer, dryer and a full kitchen. It's definitely set up to meet your every need. We stayed a week in July and had very comfortable weather but still needed to run the window AC units at night. We also brought our dog and she enjoyed the daily walks and all the sights and sounds.CassandraJuly 2014
The house was just perfect--cozy, cabin-y, great views, and a hot tub. It was a 20-30 minute drive to the Great Smoky Mountains. We got 6 people in the house, which was totally doable, but it might be more comfortable with 4. Dave met us at the house and showed us around. Nice that there weren't all those extra fees! We will definitely be back.JessicaNovember 2014
First, the owner is very nice, a great communicator and helpful in all aspects of directions to the cabin, checking in, local directions and use of his personal outdoor equipment. The location is excellent if you want to be near the NOC for outdoor activities, there is a lake 1 minute away, gas 2 minutes, groceries 15 minutes. That's the good. Here's the not good. Cabin advertised as modern. Yes, the kitchen is nice, clean (not the top of the fridge though) and appliances are great but the AC is lousy. Two window units, both located 6 inches over the beds, do not cool the cabin in summer. The only room that gets cool is the bedroom. One of those AC's is insulated by..cardboard. So if sleeping with an AC blowing on high 6 inches over your head sounds like a vacation this is up your alley as is sweating your face off while cooking, washing and watching TV. The cabin advertises a "fenced in backyard". Umm, no. Deceptive, no pics, there's a reason. A 36x12 slanted rock and dirt patch with a defunct flower bed in the middle of that made of cement blocks and tree branches..absolutely nothing resembling a backyard. So if you envision the little ones running around while daddy grills dinner you are going to be pretty ticked off when you get there.The deck is small and has a table and four moldy cushioned chairs, with more mold getting ready to take over the decks handrails. 30 minutes with a pressure washer could easily fix this. The owners cleaning people are doing him no favors, leaving cobwebs in place on ceiling, dust on the refrigerator top, spent beer caps in the driveway and hanging back in place broken wind chimes. And it says it sleeps six..it could but you would be very uncomfortable all standing in the one room staring at each other, sweating. I have stayed at 4 different places in W. NC and I'm not saying this is horrible but at this price point I expected A LOT MORE than this. At fifty dollars it would be satisfactory. Very disappointed.KiraJuly 2015
This was a great place to spend a few days away from it all. We loved the cabin, the location, and our host Dave was super helpful. Dave met us when we arrived and showed us around the place, he gave us some really great tips about the area, and even left us a bottle of champagne as we were celebrating our wedding! Any questions I had prior to our stay Dave was super quick to respond, and genuinely helpful. We loved our stay here and hope to have the opportunity to do it again!MichelleJuly 2014

This was really a nice experience! Quiet, nestled in the woods/mountains! Beautiful surroundings, warm and friendly employees! Nice breakfast and afternoon wine and snacks! I would absolutely come back here again! And try out the Cabana....terrific!!! : )RebeccaOctober 2016
Great property with lovely landscaping and amazing views. Very convenient to Bryson City. Aleen provides guests with printouts of nearby restaurants and hiking trails complete with directions and hours, which was very handy. We stayed in a single cabin which was very comfortable. Nice continental breakfast with yogurt, granola, pastries and coffee in the morning. There is a great outdoor deck with views of Lake Fontana. The property also has its own private 2.5 mile hiking trail. Would definitely like to come back and stay longer to take advantage of the yoga and spa services offered.JenniferJune 2016
Went down to ride the Smokey's and the tail of the dragon. Our stay was perfect, lite breakfast in the morning, yoga, amazing massage. And I would recommend reserving the tree house cabana for an evening! That was spectacular!DawnAugust 2016
A really sweet little retreat in the NC mountains. The 2.5 mile trail was perfect and really nice to have on site -- we didn't have to leave to go for a hike, and while it wasn't super strenuous, it was a great walk with plenty of elevation (though if you're looking for mountain top views, probably better to go in the winter when there's no foliage on the trees). Service was great, and I took a yoga class with a fantastic teacher who can meet you on whatever level of experience you have. French press coffee and continental breakfast were excellent, room was comfortable and we got a great night's sleep.JulieMay 2016
Great value. Spacious rooms, nice location, wine & cheese in the afternoon, good breakfast in the morning. We even took an excellent yoga class in the morning.Dick & DorothyApril 2016
Awesomeness!!! Absolutely loved this place. It was old and refurbished nicely. Loved the atmosphere and ambiance. Beautiful setting, warm and friendly!!JayneJune 2016
My daughter and I met here for a hiking weekend and loved every minute of it! Gathering with other guests for a glass of wine by the fire in the common area was lovely as well as the incredible view of the lake and mountains. Aleen was truly like having your best friend along, she is the perfect host! We also had a facial (honestly better than any I have had in Atlanta). The beds were beyond comfortable, we stayed in cottage twelve. we have decided to come back every year!JenniferApril 2016

Kelly was very helpful, informative and always quick to respond with any questions we had and enjoyed meeting and talking with you. The house and location were absolutely perfect and just what we were looking for for a long weekend! The house is equipped with everything you would want and more for a fun and relaxing time, yet close to so many things to do. We walked down to the lake and swam, went to the Casinos, hiked the waterfalls, road the train, went to Fontana Dam & Village, relaxed in the sauna, soaked in the hot tub, played foosball, grilled and sang & laughed around the firepit. Could not have been more perfect!BarbaraOctober 2016
Awesome location as well as the accommodations, my family and I had an excellent weekend. Hosts are super friendly and also enjoyable to be aroundRobertoMarch 2017
This cabin is absolutely beautiful! My whole group had an amazing time in the cabin! From nightly bonfires to table tennis tournaments... it was a perfect little cabin for our get away!RaquelDecember 2016
My partner and I had such a relaxing time at Casa Euchella. What a wonderful get away! Days spent taking advantage of the natural beauty of the area, and nights spent relaxing in the sauna and the hot tub. The house is a quick ride to some of the best hikes and mountain bikes trails around. The house was clean and welcoming. The kitchen had everything one would need to make a gourmet dinner. I loved everything about this place. It will definitely be on my list to go back to. Thank you guys!TaraApril 2016
Had great time at Casa Euchella. Nice fire pit, hot tub and great internet connection. 10 minute drive to good restaurants in Bryson City and the Smokey Mountain Train depot.EricOctober 2016
My family and I greatly enjoyed Euchella casa. Kelly and co were great. Comfortable place, great sauna, great hot tub, and amazing secluded location. Would not stay any where else while visiting the smoky mtn area.KevinNovember 2016
I feel like we found a hidden treasure with this listing! We just spent 5 days/4nights at Casa Euchella and it was the most amazing family gateway. So chill and slightly remote while still being a super quick drive to the smokies. Kelly was great to communicate with and offered us suggestions for kayaking and restaurants. We took full advantage of the hot tub and sauna.. seriously a dream spot for a family to unplug from society and connect with each-other and nature. We have two girls (5 and 8 yrs. old) would definitely recommend this as both a family friendly spot or a group of grown ups, looking to get lost in the woods for a bit. Definitely walk down the path and see lake fontana. We felt like it was our own private oasis.. and enjoyed the loveliest sunset there. Can't wait to go back and hopefully stay a bit longer!!! Thanks Kelly!AprilApril 2016
Kelly and Ivor were the most gracious hosts. We needed to change our reservation plenty, and they were completely flexible and communicated very quickly! Also, our group couldn't get enough of the hot tub, seclusion, foosball, surrounding hikes, and beautiful kitchen at Casa Euchella!! Thank you again and again for the stay.catApril 2017

The challenges for small-caps
In general, the sell-side focuses more on larger-cap companies, due, at least in part, to the larger flow of trading commissions. As a result, many smaller companies have fewer sell-side analysts covering their stock. In fact, obtaining sell-side research coverage can be one of the biggest challenges for small-caps.
Persistence pays off
It might be difficult and it might take considerable time to win the attention of the sell-side, but persistence typically pays off. To increase your chances, in addition to strong business fundamentals, you need to make sure your investment proposition is compelling and effectively communicated to the right audiences. Simply put, the investment in a well-executed investor relations strategy with an emphasis on building relationships with the sell-side is time, money and effort well spent.

This article explains the concept of neuro linguistic programming (NLP) in a practical way. After reading you will understand the basics of this powerful motivation and communication philosophy.
What is Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP)
Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), can be described as, "the approach that is aimed at the connection between neurological processes (Neuro), language (Linguistic) and behavioural patterns that have been acquired through experience (Programming)".
NLP is a powerful and effective method to quickly obtain an understanding of the motives and motivations of our actions.
Therefore, NLP is increasingly used in all kinds of occupations and environments.
The starting principle of neuro linguistic programming is that man must be capable of loving and enjoying life.
This ability can be affected by an incident.
That incident may be significant but other, seemingly unimportant or minor events or remarks may have a great impact too on our actions, thinking, performing and behaviour. NLP is often used to achieve specific goals in life, such as personal development, communication and lifting personal blockades.
Who are the founders of NLP?
The founders of Neuro Linguistic Programming are professor of linguistics John Grinder and computer science undergraduate Richard Bandler.
They studied the difference between excellent and non-excellent behaviour in the 1970s.
The purpose of their study was to find a way or method that would help people to get a better, richer and more fulfilled life.
They wanted an answer to the question what made therapists such as Virginia Satir and Milton Erickson so special.
This is why they studied their techniques and results.
One of the most important results of the examinations of John Grinder and Richard Bandler was that if the effective behavioural patterns of excellent people could be modelled, they could be adopted by other people.
How does this philosophy work?
Using NLP you work on your senses, thoughts and emotions with the purpose of becoming aware of those influences.
It is not about what you remember; it is about how your memory works. And what the effect is of that memory, incident or remark on your daily routines.
NLP teaches you to look at experiences and incidents in a different way.
This is why you will deal with things differently and you will develop a structural approach to this.
You will listen and communicate differently and the results will be positive and instantly noticeable.
Neuro Linguistic Programming does not target problems but solutions.
NLP is an interactive process between the practitioner and the client and involves a number of stages including the drawing up of a report, collecting information about a problem and the desired objectives,
The whole process is accompanied by the non-verbal responses from the client.
The first step is the action of setting up and maintaining synchronization between the practitioner and the client, which is achieved by stimulation and which leads to verbal and non-verbal responses from the client.
The practitioner pays much time and attention to both the non-verbal and verbal responses that are needed to move from the current situation to the desired situation.
The client is encouraged to consider the consequences of the desired situation in which any positive intentions/ interventions of any problems may present themselves.
To help the client, the practitioner uses several means and techniques to change the client's internal representations and responses.
Through mental repetition and integrating the desired changes into the client's life, the desired situation will be realized as much as possible.
What can you achieve with Neuro Linguistic Programming?
Neuro Linguistic Programming is a collection of techniques, starting points and convictions that are often used to achieve personal growth.
Neuro Linguistic Programming is used in training sessions to improve the functioning of managers and employees through seminars, group training courses or in individual client-coach relationships.
Some Neuro Linguistic Programming techniques are suitable for a clearer and more natural communication and therefore they can be established in different disciplines.
These vary from management and sales to marketing. But neuro linguistic programming was also trained as an interviewing technique in the criminal investigation training sessions of the Dutch police force.
Neuro Linguistic Programming is also used to improve the cooperation between colleagues or for a better communication with clients.
Furthermore, it is used to improve motivation and to increase performance in sports. Neuro Linguistic Programming is for EVERYBODY and can be used in both a professional as in a personal context.
You can use Neuro Linguistic Programming as a manager, advisor or consultant and mainly for effective coaching and management.
Just think of matters such as leadership, motivation, conflict management and self management.
For salespersons, good contact and communication skills are essential.
A successful customer contact is connected with your skills to quickly relate to the customer's wavelength to subsequently lead your customer to an exciting buying moment they cannot refuse.
In teaching situations you can use Neuro Linguistic Programming to improve the learning achievements of pupils/ students, develop your presentation skills and pupil/ student guidance.
Neuro Linguistic Programming also has several applications in healthcare.
If you are prepared to connect with your patients' perception of the world as a doctor or a nurse, you will be able to build up a confidential relationship much quicker.
In British healthcare for example, Neuro Linguistic Programming is used as a method to get a positive contact with the patient in the right manner.
Welfare services
As a therapist or a counsellor you can use Neuro Linguistic Programming as a powerful addition to your own treatment methods.
Neuro Linguistic Programming applications can also be found in psychotherapy.
Neuro Linguistic Programming is also used as an independent therapy or as a supplement to other, existing therapies for instance in overcoming stage fright, simple phobia, self-help, depression or addiction.
Additional applications of Neuro Linguistic Programming can be found in meetings, direct employee consultation, in relationships or in personal well-being.
In short, you can apply this in any situation in which you are dealing with communication between yourself and the outside world.

I was originally scheduled to pick up the equipment in Texarkana at bubba greens towing but when I arrived they had rented the equipment to someone else and I had to drive 30 miles out of the way to pick up a replacement. Did not receive an apology or regret simply "we rented it to someone else". Guess having a confirmation really doesn't mean they are going to keep it for you if someone else shows up first. VERY DISSAPOINTED!
Jeff R. on
The equipment was parked behind the location with weeds and junk piled up around it and they had no way of pulling it out so I had to use my truck to get it out.
Ismael D. on
The staff was friendly and helpful. In our opinion the truck need some repairs, we experienced a loud noise when we used the brakes once we arrived in Phoenix, AZ.
TONY B. on
Lack of communication! I had to call 5 times trying to find the truck that was not where it was suppose to be. Spent over an hour with reservations and local rental companies. Needed it for less than 200 mile but was charge for 431. Only had 3/4 tank but was told to fill it up when returned. I have never dealt with a company so unorganized. Every customer is your paycheck is what I tell my employees and my sales have increased every year!
MARVIN S. on
Repair damaged equipment before trying to rent it out. Waiting to long for a simple rental and my info is already in the system. 3 Very young kids running around outside. Was worried about hitting them when driving onto location and leaving.
CHRIS M. on
Very helpful, very informative and overall professional attitude and attention to detail, I recommend this location highly!

Staff went above & beyond to help me get the trailer I needed after regular business hours. Excellent customer service!
denise f. on
Location was closed when i went to pick up truck. Owner called on morning of my move saying his kids that denisit appt. Tried calling when i received the message no answer. He left no cell number to reach him or time he would return. I had to call U haul directly, they had to track him down so he could come and give me the truck. This delayed my move by 3 hours. Had to pack the following day also due to lack of daylight. Poorly ran business will never use u haul again. And no apologies were given to me. Terrible experience!!!
tyrone d. on
The guy told me i had to bring the uhaul back to where i got it from and couldnt drop it off at any location by doin this it cost me extra money in miles im not pleased i wil use ryder next time

Fast n quick service
John H. on
at least have a contact # or give the hours. Never could get in contact with business in the small town of Ashdown where I have lived for years. But was happy about the outcome and being able to do it over phone and go get trailer . This was great.
ANNA W. on
This place was very nice and friendly.
Sequoyah t. on
Tow dolly did not turn the right direction when we tried to back up. We turn both ways & it still wouldn't work. It was letting the wheels on the car that was being tow turn. Won't rent another one
diane m. on
Great team work it all came together for us Job well done
MARY R. on
The hook for car could not get off
EUGENE G. on
I returned the equipment as I was told to do but they refused to take the equipment told me that I had to take the equipment to another location in Ashdown which I did that location was closed for 2 days according to the sign for Spring Break. I left the equipment there So I wouldn't be charged extra for not have the equipment to use further. However U-haul is charging me anyway. I am filing a report against U-Haul with the Better Business Bureau and will seek relief for monetary loss caused by U-Haul
JOYCE W. on
The original truck they were going to give us was dirty so we asked for another one. We were suppose to have 12 furniture pads and they had none. Was told none had come in on a truck they had taken in, this business needs to have pads on site for rental.
ADOLFO S. on
it took 1hour and 40 minutes to get check in when i was paying my labors to help me load the truck 10.00 an hour x4 =56.00 loss the woman there didn't know how to work the computer I had to kind of guide her from the other side of the counter to help my self check in this is unaceptable i expect someone to fix this issue how ever they offered me some blankets i didn't

Oh that is such a good question. I want to believe someone is trustworthy straight away, that may naive or gullible of me, but they deserve to be trusted at first until they do wrong by me, then I know they aren't to be trusted. I guess it's a hard lesson, but I want to believe there are good people around.
As the PP mentioned, I wouldn't trust someone straight away with my children.

I'm a pretty intuitive and perceptive person and get a gut feeling about a person pretty early on. if that gut feeling tells me to be wary, I listen to that. people do not automatically get my full trust until proven otherwise. this is probably some weird self preservation thing where I'm protecting myself.
it also depends on what you're trusting the person with. to watch my shopping for 5 minutes? yeah sure. to watch my baby (not that it's born yet lol)? no way.
18-02-2016 19:17 #6
I trust most people. No random person has ever hurt or upset me.
I wouldn't leave my kids with other strangers but oh hang on.... I send my kids to school and daycare with the full expectation they will be OK.

SOLUTION 1 ListBox ItemData Is Gone!
SOLUTION 2 Create Owner-Drawn ListBoxes and Combo Boxes
SOLUTION 3 Upgrade Your INI Files to XML
SOLUTION 4 Build Your Own XML-Enabled Windows Forms TreeView Control
ListBox ItemData Is Gone!
PROBLEM Classic VB ListBoxes had an ItemData property that let you associate an item in a ListBox with something else, such as an ID value for a row in a database table, or an index for an array of items. But .NET ListBoxes don't have an ItemData property. How can I make that association now?
SOLUTION Place your items in a class. When you do that, you often don't need an index or ID number, because the items are directly available from the ListBox's Items collection.
The look of those familiar VB ListBoxes and ComboBoxes hasn't changed, but the way they work has changed dramatically. For those of you just getting started with .NET, dealing with ListBoxes and ComboBoxes is often one of the first sources of serious frustration. But don't worry. In 10 minutes you can absorb the basic workings of the new .NET ListBoxes and ComboBoxes, and you'll never miss ItemData again.
For the rest of this solution, I'll limit the discussion to ListBoxes, but all the information in this solution works with both ComboBoxes and ListBoxes.
The data model for classic VB ListBoxes consisted of the List property, which held a simple array of strings, and a parallel ItemData array that held Long numeric values. It was convenient to use the two lists in tandem; for example, you might populate a ListBox with a list of strings from a database table, while simultaneously populating the ItemData property with a unique numeric value from that table, such as an AutoNumber. When a user selected an item (or items), you could retrieve the ItemData value and use it to obtain the associated object, or use the value as a lookup value for a database query. Table 1 shows the classic VB ListBox data model with three items in the List array, and three Long integer values in the ItemData array.
In VB.NET, when you drag a ListBox onto a form and then try to write the same loop to populate the ListBox, adding a text value and an ItemData numeric value for each item, you'll get a compile-time error. ListBoxes in .NET don't have an ItemData property. Hmm. It does seem that the ubiquitous VB ListBox lost some backward compatibility. But in doing so, it also gained functionality. Rather than having two separate arrays limited to Strings and Longs, the .NET ListBox has only one collection, called Items, which holds objects-meaning you can store any type of object as an item in a ListBox, and not just simple strings and numbers. However, the ListBox still needs a string to display for each item. That's easy. By default, the ListBox calls the ToString method to display each item in the Items collection.
But wait! What if the ToString method doesn't display what you need? That's easy too. List- Boxes now have a DisplayMember property. If the DisplayMember property is set, the ListBox invokes the item number named by the DisplayMember property before displaying the item.
In other words, rather than storing a single set of strings and associated ID values, and then having to do extra work of retrieving the appropriate data when a user clicks on an item, you can now store the entire set of objects-right in the Items property.
Still, despite the best efforts of VB.NET experts to convince them otherwise, people aren't always happy with the current ListBox implementation. One reason is that the consumers of a class aren't always the creators of the class-and they may not be satisfied with the class creator's selections. So first, I'll show you how to re-create the functionality of the classic VB ListBox control, and then I'll show you how to move far beyond it-and even beyond the probable intent of the .NET designers-to create an extremely flexible strategy for displaying items in .NET ListBoxes.
Mimicking a Classic VB ListBox
What you're about to do may feel awkward at first, but you'll soon find that as your thinking patterns switch from managing raw data to handling classes, it will become a natural behavior. Because you're trying to mimic an ItemData property that doesn't exist, your first inclination might be to subclass the .NET ListBox control and add your own parallel array of Integer values, accessed via an added ItemData property. But that carries baggage you don't need, because you'd have to manage the new array in code-which becomes very difficult with a control that can sort items. You'd then have to make sure the arrays stay synchronized across sorts when users modify the Item collection-it can be a mess.
Populating a ListBox
Here's an easier way. Rather than adding the ItemData property to the control itself, add the ItemData value to the items you put into the Items collection. When you do that, you don't have to subclass the control or write any special sorting or list modification code. For example, suppose you have a list of employee names and ID numbers. When a user clicks on an employee name in the ListBox, you want to show a MessageBox with that user's ID number and name. Assume you have the names in a string array called names, and the IDs in a Long array called IDs. In classic VB, you would write code like this:
Dim i As Long For i = 0 To UBound(names) List1.AddItem names(i) List1.ItemData(List1.NewIndex) = ids(i) Next
In .NET, however, you create a simple class with two properties, Text and ItemData, and a constructor to make it easy to assign the two properties when you create the class. Listing 1 shows the code for such a class, named ListItem.
Assuming you have the names and IDs arrays already populated, you can create instances of your ListItem class and assign them to the ListBox's Items collection using a simple loop:
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To names.Length - 1 Me.ListBox1.Items.Add(New ListItem(names(i), ids(i))) Next
But if you run this code, you'll find that the ListBox displays a list of items that look like [Projectname].ListItem rather than the list of names you were expecting. That's because, by default, the ListBox calls the ToString method for each item to get a displayable string. In this case, however, you don't want to use the default; you want the ListBox to display the Text property. So, add this line before the loop that populates the ListBox:
Me.ListBox1.DisplayMember = "Text"
That tells the ListBox to display the Text property for each item rather than the results of ToString.
You must assign a property member to the ListBox.DisplayMember property-using a public field or a function doesn't work. That's because the display functionality works through reflection-the ListBox dynamically queries the item at runtime for a property with the name you assign to the ListBox.DisplayMember property.
Of course, it's your class, and you can eliminate the DisplayMember assignment by overriding the ToString method to show whatever you like. In this case, you want to show the Text property. So, add this code to the ListItem class:
Public Overrides Function ToString() As String Return Me.Text End Function
Now you can remove the DisplayMember assignment and the ListBox will still display the results of the Text property.
Getting the Data Back
As you've seen, you can use this simple ListItem class to work with exactly the same data you used in classic VB ListBox code. Getting the data back is just as simple. When a user clicks an item, the .NET ListBox fires a SelectedItemChanged event. That happens to be the default event for the ListBox, so if you double-click on it in design mode, Visual Studio will insert a stub event handler for you. Fill in the event-handling code as follows:
Private Sub ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged( _ ByVal sender As System.Object, _ ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _ Handles ListBox1.SelectedIndexChanged
Dim li As ListItem If Me.ListBox1.SelectedIndex >= 0 Then li = DirectCast(Me.ListBox1.SelectedItem, ListItem) Debug.WriteLine("Selected Item Text: " & _ li.Text & System.Environment.NewLine & _ "Selected ItemData: " & li.ItemData) End If End Sub
First, test to ensure that an item is selected. If so, even though you know that it's a ListItem, the ListBox.Items collection doesn't-it's a collection of objects. Therefore, you need to cast the selected item to the correct type, using either the CType or DirectCast method (Direct- Cast is faster when you know the cast will succeed).
Now that you've seen a way to re-create VB6 ListBox behavior, I'll concentrate on other ways to use the list controls in .NET, including binding the control to a collection type.
The Class Creator Has Control
Suppose you're told to use a Person class (created by a co-worker) that has four properties: ID (Long), LastName, FirstName, and Status (see Listing 2). The Person object has an overloaded constructor so you can assign all the values when you create the object. I've included the complete, finished code for the Person class in Listing 2, even though we're assuming your co-worker didn't give you the class in quite this shape. I've highlighted the portions that you'll add in the next section of this solution. The Person class has ID, LastName, FirstName, and Status properties. Although it exposes LastFirst and FirstLast methods, the interesting parts are the DisplayPersonDelegate, the DisplayMethod property, and the overridden ToString method.
You want to fill a ListBox with Person objects. So you create a Form and drag a ListBox onto it. You want the ListBox to fill when the user clicks a button, so you add a Fill List button to do that (see Figure 1).
VB.NET makes it easy to display items in a ListBox, because you can set the ListBox's DataSource property (binding the list) to any collection that implements the IList interface, which represents a collection of objects that you can access individually by index. Note that you don't have to populate the list through binding; you can still write a loop to add items to the ListBox, as you've already seen in the "Populating a ListBox" section of this solution. However, binding is convenient, as long as you understand exactly what the framework does when it displays the list.
The ArrayList class implements the IList interface, so you can create an ArrayList member variable for the form, called people, and fill it with Person objects during the Form_Load event.
' define an ArrayList at class level Private people As New ArrayList()
Private Sub Form2_Load( _ ByVal sender As System.Object, _ ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _ Handles MyBase.Load
Dim p As Person Me.ListBox1.Sorted = True ListBox1.DisplayMember = "ToString" ListBox1.ValueMember = "ID" p = New Person(1, "Twain", "Mark", "") people.Add(p) p = New Person(2, "Austen", "Jane", "") people.Add(p) p = New Person(3, "Fowles", "John", "") people.Add(p) End Sub
Now, when a user clicks the Fill List button, the ListBox displays items automatically because the code sets the ListBox's DataSource property to the people ArrayList:
Private Sub btnFillList_Click( _ ByVal sender As System.Object, _ ByVal e As System.EventArgs) + Handles btnFillList.Click
ListBox1.DataSource = Nothing ListBox1.DataSource = people End Sub
Unfortunately, you find that the class creator didn't override the ToString implementation or include any additional LastFirst method to provide the strings for the ListBox. So the result is that the ListBox calls the default Person.ToString implementation, which returns the class name, Solution1.Person. The result looks like Figure 2.
OK, no problem. What about using the DisplayMember property? Just add the following line to the end of the Button1_Click method:
ListBox1.DisplayMember = "LastName"
Now, run the project again. This time, the result is a little closer to what you want (see Figure 3). Setting the ListBox's DisplayMember property to the string "LastName" causes the ListBox to invoke the LastName method. Unfortunately, this displays only the last names, not the last and first names.
Now you're stuck. Unless you can get the class creator to add a LastFirst property, you'll have to go to a good deal of trouble to get the list to display both names. (At this point, you have to pretend the class creator actually helps and adds a LastFirst property to the Person class.)
Public ReadOnly Property LastFirst() As String Get Return Me.LastName & ", " & Me.FirstName End Get End Property
Now you can change the ListBox.DisplayMember property, and the form will work as expected (see Figure 4):
ListBox1.DisplayMember = "LastFirst"
Just as you get the form working, your manager walks in and says, "Oh, by the way, the clients want to be able to change the list from Last/First to First/Last-both sorted, of course." Now what? You could get the class creator to change the class again, but surely there's a better solution.
You could inherit the class and add a FirstLast method, but then you'd have two classes to maintain. You could create a new wrapper class that exposes the people ArrayList collection, as well as implements FirstLast and LastFirst properties. But what if the clients change their minds again? You'd have to keep adding methods to the class, or bite the bullet and beg the class creator for yet more changes. Also, do you really have to create a wrapper for every class you want to display in a ListBox?
This is when you begin to miss the classic VB ListBox's ItemData property. If you could assign Person.ID as the ItemData value, you could concatenate the names yourself, add them to the ListBox, and then look up the Person based on the ID when a user selects an item from the ListBox. But ItemData is gone. Of course, you can mimic it, as you've seen, but that seems like a lot of trouble when you already have a class that you could store directly into the ListBox.
All these possibilities are onerous choices. Things would be a lot easier if you could just control the Person class. What's the answer?
Delegate, Delegate, Delegate
At this point, you need to change roles-take off your reader hat and put on your control creator hat. Here's a completely different approach to displaying custom strings based on some object.
Unless there's a good reason not to do so, when you create a class you typically want the class consumer to have as much control as possible over the instantiated objects. One way to increase class consumers' power is to give them control over the method that the ListBox (or other code) calls to get a string representation of your object. In other words, rather than predefining multiple display methods within your class, you provide a public Delegate type, and then add a private member variable and a public property to your class that accept the delegate type. For example:
' Public Delegate type definition Public Delegate Function DisplayPersonDelegate( _ ByVal p As Person) As String
' Private member variable Private mDisplayMethod As DisplayPersonDelegate
' Public Property Public Property DisplayMethod() As DisplayPersonDelegate Get Return mDisplayMethod End Get Set (ByVal Value As DisplayPersonDelegate) mDisplayMethod=Value End Set End Property
The DisplayPersonDelegate accepts a Person object and returns a string. The class consumer will create a DisplayPersonDelegate object and assign it to the public DisplayMethod property.
Next, override the ToString method so that it returns the delegate result value. For example:
Public Overloads Overrides Function ToString() As String Try Return Me.DisplayMethod(Me) Catch Return MyBase.ToString() End Try End Function
The advantage of this scheme is that the object consumer gets the best of both worlds-a default ToString implementation assignable by the class creator, and the ability to call a custom ToString method by assigning the delegate. And the class creator doesn't have to worry about all the possible ways that a user may wish to display an object. Finally, it gives the object consumer the ability to set different custom ToString methods for every instance of the Person class.
