On any given day while scanning status updates on Facebook, I can read some of the worlds greatest quotes and bits of advice for a life well lived. These morsel’s are quoted from some of the worlds greatest philosophers, poets, artists and uniquely powerful people to known celebrities and unknown heros. And when combined with some AWEsomely stunning graphics or photos or comedic videos WOW, what a great feeling it can create…..for about 12 seconds… or less. Or not at all for some.
And after the feel-good effect wears off, for those plagued by problems, who have n0t found the tools and techniques of NLP™ yet, the good feelings from a random Facebook post or advice from a friend, can turn into UNproductive questions that can lead a person with problems, difficult challenges, or lifelong behaviors even deeper into their problem. UNproductive questions like:
“Why am I not motivated ?”
“Why don’t I believe in me ?”
“ Why am I so afraid to go for it ?”
“Why am I the only one that can’t do it?”
“Why don’t I know what I want ?”
The same often occurs in the majority of self-help books out there. People with problems are drawn to the latest book that claims to solve their specific problem or at least explain it with some clarity, so they make the purchase and read the book with some enthusiasm as the author describes the problem. You can almost hear the reader saying: “yeah, that’s me, I do that”, and page after page they read how the author really understands and commiserates with their problem with such great specificity. With heightened anticipation the reader reaches the last chapter which summarizes the problem yet again and offers a well crafted, well written version of this solution or one of similar content: “Don’t do that anymore, it won’t help you” !
There’s a hilariously funny video that illustrates this on YouTube taken from a parody of the U.S. television show of the 1970’s, The Bob Newhart Show. You can really enjoy a good laugh by seeing it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ow0lr63y4Mw. And it’s very funny, so go ahead and watch it sometime soon, or after reading the rest this.
What’s missing in most self-help “solutions” ? – (Hmmmm, self-help solution! kind of makes me think of some test tube or vile bubbling with liquid solutions) but back to the point of what’s
been missing. IT’s THE HOW-TO’s! HOW TO get motivated any time you want to, HOW TO believe in your own capabilities, HOW TO be courageous, HOW TO learn to do new
things, etc. People are smart. They already know they should stop doing X, Y, or Z, or do more of A, B, C. If they knew HOW TO, they would. What has been missing, is teaching people the HOW-TO’s so they can free themselves of fears, self imposed limitations and the general variety of I can’t’s.
The HOW-TO’s and they are available to anyone. No more searching in book after book or paying others to help you ‘talk about the problem” some more. The HOW TO’s and You’re freedom will be found in the simple and profoundly useful body of knowledge known as NLP™. Neuro-Linguistic Programming™, where the attitude and the methodology of the Bandler technologies actually provide practical and useful ways to make behavioral changes quickly, and that lead to more positive resources where a person could accomplish nearly anything they want from that place. For those of you who have n0t learned NLP™ or want to master the skills, what you will learn are the HOW-TO’s to be more confident, more resourceful, more motivated, more loving, more flexible so you can do most anything, happily. Happier people are healthier, live longer, have better relationships, and are more successful in every area of their life. The HOW-TO’s of NLP™ really deliver. Once you learn NLP™, all you have to do is use it to stay free of whatever it is is preventing you from real freedom and you can do this for yourself, for the rest of your life. No more books, no more therapists, no more trial and error. Maybe you’re ready for the HOW TO’s of whatever it is that you want to learn to do with ease and effectiveness. The best resource you will ever have is you. Make the investment in you and learn NLP™. Learn to transform your life and the lives of those you love. You’ll be asking MUCH different questions then. One’s like: “What’s my next adventure?”, “How easy will it be to learn something new?”, “How much better can my relationships get?” and now it’s time for you wonder what else you want to ask to set the direction of your dreams.
