Of course, it is entirely up you and as you know best I will continue to trust your judgement.
But .... How would that be, having it ... I mean.

A little assumption can go along way

As you let go of useless patterns ... that fade away ...
Ever so quickly ..
U intensify the Enjoyment of your New Habits.


The power of Milton Model Language is that while it may be ambiguous it is also very powerful.

Once you accept the first part of this language pattern .... without questioning it..
Then you also .. Easily ..
Reap the benefit of the second part of the presupposition that slips deliciously into your unconscious mind.

Note:
Realize that I have not asked you to instead I have Begun with, "As you" which presupposes you will and you must do the first part of the statement before you will get the reward of the second half making it even more compelling.

How would you design a presupposition that sounds like a fact using this part a and b strategy.

Remember to Stack as many as you like (to bypass the critical faculty) because they work perfectly for conversational change as well as Hypnosis.

Milton Model Language Extended Quote

Richard Bandler Said The truth is people like to feel good for absolutely no reason at all.



My client Susan said she noticed that when she concentrated on feeling better she was so surprised how much better she began to feel more of the time.


Yesterday I was talking to my friend Stuart who said when he got serious about getting in great shape, he began to show up to Run each morning, the more he got in to the rhythm of it, the better he noticed he felt about his own achievement, which led him to accomplish much more in his business life too.


Milton Erickson used to use the technique of indirectly saying a thing by shifting accountability to another speaker.
(I mean it wasn't as if I said is .. They said it, I am only passing the message along ...)

A funny thing happens then, I didn't say it but the person I am talking to gets to experience the full impact of the message without having any conflict in their conscious mind.

This language pattern is so simple and handy it bypasses the critical faculty and immerses the listener into their own imagination before they know it.

Of course you shouldn't just take my word for it, should you.
Some of the Greatest NLP Trainers of all time say, chunk information down into bite size pieces and then you will find yourself having as much fun as possible learning new things.

NLP - Embedded Commands

Embedded Commands:
Here is small Chunk , you will likely find ez and Fun.
If I say to you directly "get yourself working on a plan" chances are I may meet resistance from your conscious mind which is wondering why did she say that, that's so rude and then the whole point is lost.

An Embedded Command will allow you to say what you want in an easy and elegant way as well as bypassing the Critical faculty (slipping past your conscious mind logic and reasoning).
The Critical Faculty is used to define Logic for yourself, compared to what you know to be true or realistic in your own personal Experience.

Bypasing the Critical Faculty:
Here is an example of Spiderman (who walks up a wall) and changes his clothes and then becomes a Superhero ... Logically your Critical Faculty will dispute the reality of this ... by sorting through your own experiences.


Sensory Overload - Submission to Hypnosis:
Luckily, Sensory overload is in position, just like in normal Hypnosis and eventually the Unconscious Mind takes over and the Conscious Mind (Logic Police) agree's to partake in the illusion for the sake of the overall enjoyment of the process.

Embedded Commands  - One of the 5 Subcatagories of Milton Model's Indirect Elicitation Patterns
Embeded Commands are Indirect Elicitation Patterns of the Milton model, most often used for suggestion in Communication.
Where we will see this quite a bit is in Hypnosis, Persuasion and Influence and Language Patterns used to move a process forward such as Sales and Negotiations

Indirect Elicitation Patterns Also Consist of :
Embedded Commands - As I am descibing
Analogue Marking - Making gestures to Markout Verbal or Nonverbal suggestions
Embedded Question - Questions that are sandwiched in the middle of conversation
Negative Commands - preceeding conversation with a negative - when you want somebody to do it
Conversational Postulates - Yes or No answer questions that envoke other responses

Example of an embedded Command:

I will first say something like
And when you become more comfortable in your new house as you know you will you will find you get yourself working on a plan and then things will flow much more easily and suddenly you will begin to notice opportunities are all around you, wherever you choose.

So as you can see I have used language to sandwich some Commands into the sentence.
The reason being is, if I said
Become more comfortable in your new house
get yourself working on a plan
Notice Opportunities

I may have met with resistance from the operator
Often people do not enjoy being told what to do, so the sandwich soften's it all up so it is nice and goey and easily digested.

We will speak about this again as it becomes important when we talk more about the Milton Model

Remember this chunk was a small piece of Milton Model Language
More Specifically Indirect Elicitation Patterns
and we spoke of Embedded Comands.

Next time I will share more with you about:

The Other 4:
Analogue Marking - Making gestures to Markout Verbal or Nonverbal suggestions
Embedded Question - Questions that are sandwiched in the middle of conversation
Negative Commands - preceeding conversation with a negative - when you want somebody to do it
Conversational Postulates - Yes or No answer questions that envoke other responses

Have fun practicing and let me know how you are getting on.
