What is NLP?
"...I eventually attended an NLP Practitioner course and then an NLP Master Practitioner course...NLP is applicable everywhere and once you enter into its world you can apply it everywhere...Many other concepts - learning styles, multiple intelligences, Brain Gym - also have a neurological aspect that links them with NLP. However, NLP is so much more than that."

Neuro Linguistic Programming is a collection of techniques that enable you to understand how your mind works, achieve greater success in life and change for the better. NLP is rooted in Psychology, based upon the works of eminent experts in human behaviour
Virginia Satir,
Gregory Bateson,
Milton Erickson and
Fritz Perls
and provides processes that produce excellent performance so you can achieve excellent results. Look up these names and you'll see just how influential these experts were and are in human behaviour. NLP is similar to the concept of brain training games that are so popular currently.
NLP was founded by John Grinder and Richard Bandler back in the 1970's. These two University Professors discovered a way to turn Excellent Behaviour into a process. By doing that, anyone who wants to can learn the process and therefore become excellent at that thing. Bandler and Grinder initially studied eminent Therapists as they were excellent communicators - they initiated tremendous changes with their clients purely through talking. What Bandler and Grinder realised is that language has a great effect on the mind and body, hence the definition Neuro Linguistic Programming:
- Neuro - How we use ou nervous system to experience the world around us. All the information that enters into our brain using:
Sight - visual
Sound - auditory
Kinaesthetic - touch
Olfactory - smell
Gustatory - taste.
- Linguistic - How we use language to interpret this information - pictures, clear, foggy, sounds, loud, dull, touch, feel, grate, tough, smell the coffee, smelling like roses, taste, bitter, sweet, sour. Language and other non-verbal communication systems through which our neural representations are coded, ordered and given meaning by our current knowledge.
- Programming - We run strategies in our minds to get things done. We have no awareness of them, they are often habit. Such as driving, cycling, brushing teeth. Using all the information in our mind we can find out what is in the strategy. If there's something that needs changing, we can do so. For example, can get ideas down on paper really well but gets nervous on presentations, or can get in lifts but can't get on planes without falling apart, or can play sports excellently for fun but always loses in competitions.
NLP teaches you tools to change your actions into performance of the highest standards. Present yourself feeling confident, communicate with clarity and elegance in any situation, at home, in business or socially. The basis of NLP is that all behaviour is rooted in the unconscious mind. The unconscious mind is the bit of the brain that is still awake and fully functioning when we are sleeping. The unconscious mind stores all our memories, processes all our experiences, filters everything we feel, hear, see, taste and smell, and it attaches emotion to everything we do. NLP allows us to access the unconscious mind easily and make changes there. That way, change is easy and learning is simple.

You may ask "Yes, but how specifically do the changes occur?" The answer is through learning. Everytime we learn something we make new neural connections in our brain. Instantly. Too good to be true you might say? Well, think about it. If someone gets bitten by dog, they might well get a phobia instantly about dogs - and you would probably think it's reasonable. So a phobia can be created instantly. A phobia is a learnt behaviour. The brain cannot differentiate between a wanted or unwanted behaviour. It just does things to get results. So, similarly, you can learn positive behaviours instantly too. For example, if you wear a new perfume or aftershave and everyone comments how great it is, you automatically start using it every day.
Every time you have an "Aha" moment, a moment of realisation, your brain makes a new connection - you are learning. Remember those pictures, stereograms, you had to defocus your eyes to see the image and when you did you said "YES I see it now"? That's the "Aha" moment when your brain creates new patterns for learning. We can have many 1000,s of those a day - perpetual learning and perpetual change. That's what our brains are made for - start using it!

Ask yourself 4 questions: Why do all this work? Why bother with studying, or doing something different? Why should I change? Why put in all this effort?
Let me ask you "Why not?" Why not learn more? Our brains surival is based on the instinct to learn. It's designed to adapt to change. Why not expand your knowledge, meet new people, have new experiences? What do you have to lose? Why not learn how to be more successful, happier and take control of your own life? Why not realise what your potential in life is, rather than never knowing?
And why not you? Some people think everyone else is capable of or deserves success - in relationships, career, business, health, etc. So, why not you?
Why not now? It's never too late to learn and change and be your full potential. Whether you are 14 or 104, it's never too late. Due to our ever expanding mind, our curiosity to know more drives you want more, and that's good.
