I have been hacked |NLP is Fun

 Hello dear friends, recently I discovered my phone and all electronic devices had been hacked.

The reason, I am telling you this is because it seems to be more of a stalker than a normal hacking situation.

Which of course is bad enough in itself.

I say this because frequently I cannot open my phone, laptop and other devices. My data has gone up even though I lock my phone up in a faraday cage to attempt to blog the signal.

It is as if somebody can hear what i am saying and see my screen and keystrokes.

As soon as i change passwords, they say "we cannot find a record of this password username combination"

All of the apps on my screen are constantly being phished and I am being asked to click this or that to gain entry into my normal accounts.

I believe the hacker gained access when they emailed me to find out about NLP practitioner training.

In the meantime, I have done my best to learn whatever I can about Hacking and cyber security.

I wish I knew more about how to protect myself.

If it is who I think it is they describe themselves as. Python Coach, Ethical hacker, and Computer science engineer. Obviously I am unqualified and unmatched to their level of expertise especially since they keep changing my screens every single day.

They have compromised my finances completely and all personal and business data.

I want you to know I have discovered more about bots and catfishing than I ever thought i would need to.

If somebody contacts you or asks you for anything or you see me on any type of dating site it would not actually be me but they have antagonised me daily and this would not be out of the question for them.

I have been on social media since 2006 and I am not sure how long this person has been watching me or what the purpose of this relentless harassment is but I just wanted to let you know and I feel better having shared it.

I will continue to plow through some days being more challenging and traumatic than others, if you have any tips I 100% welcome them.

Much love,

Nadia Harper

What is a Yes Set | NLP is Fun

If you are in sales you may have heard of a Yes set and you may not yet be sure what exactly that is.

Let's go through it shall we.
A Yes set will look and sound like this


So you made it then ?
Was it raining when you left?
Did you get my text this Morning?

Now that is three yes's
Isn't it, assuming the person said yes.

The way to get the yes is by asking questions you undeniably know the answer is going to be yes to.

Then you ask a real question you want a Yes answer to either directly or setting it up with a couple soft and cozy ones first.

Like this:

"So you are coming to football on Tuesday then "
They agree and say Yes.

Liverpool killed it against (whomever) did you see the match
2 more yes's

"You gonna bring your kit and play this time"
They agree and say yes.

Is Holly over yours ...Yep

Gonna sign up for team training ?
yeah might as well.

So now they have said yes to you about signing up for your course.

And the person unconsciously has been programmed to say yes.

It is not an exact science, so you need to calibrate your pace and lead ratio.
As always go with your instinct.

Now you have a go !
Remember you need loads of Rapport as that will make a big difference to the level of ease the person feels.

The Conscious Mind | NLP is Fun

In Neuro Linguistic programming we speak of The Conscious mind and the Unconscious mind, If you would like to learn about the unconscious mind then you can do so by clicking here   and also on this NLP is Fun post I wrote about programming your unconscious mind.

The Conscious Mind is about real time awareness it is a state of awareness that is about your focused attention, what you are focusing on at the moment.
And also this description is an example of what it could be and what we mean when we use it. We use it as a metaphor because it is a practical way to use language to describe an experience.


The Conscious mind would also represent chunking down into details like when we use the Meta Model for example, as opposed to the Milton Model which we use Chunking Up in ambiguity for the most part.

When we speak of The Conscious Mind we mean attention to Stimulus of what is happening inside (in detail) and Outside (In Detail).

You may have heard an NLP Practitioner say the Conscious mind is the gate keeper of the Mind, and that it does not have the capability to operate the full potential of the mind. Which means it is often attempting to dominate out of its scope of capability.

Worrying about the future is an example of this since the Future is not in a state of consciousness at present.
we can certainly image in e  what we believe to be a version of what could happen in the future and this will happen in the Unconscious mind. And if the conscious mind expects a bad result NOW it would draw comparisons from the unconscious mind of how bad it could be.

A transderivational search (for comparative meaning) Like in the Communication model.
Although to say this is true of accurate is left to interpretation. You can see how the conscious mind is great for an initiator of Hypnosis by now can you not ?

This is because the conscious mind can represent 7 plus or minus 2 pieces of information at a time and an example of  this could be a lighthouse that shines over the dark and cold water at night time the lighthouse sweeps light over small parts of the water periodically. It illuminates different area's one at a time. It does not have the scope to alight the whole Sea at once.

The bit that is illuminated is the bit you are aware of in the present. The rest of the sea still exists and it would be "in the Unconscious Mind" which is everything else.
even though it exists and you may or may not know it does, it is "out of consciousness" which can mean you are not aware of it in the present and any detail of it.

Some say The conscious mind is considered to be a messenger, you can use it to initiate Self hypnosis for example. It is most practical to instruct your conscious mind with a series of repetitious thoughts and behaviors so as to overload The critical faculty and spill into the Unconscious mind for Transformation.

Remember the conscious mind is a great helper when we become more mindful on what we love to experience. This will help to create more of these satisfying experiences by paying attention.

More about your Unconscious Mind | NLP is Fun

Neuro linguistic Programming is about making sure you have more options and choices available to you at any given time.
One of the most important presuppositions then is to understand our objective is to program the Unconscious mind to be even more effective for our desired outcome.

I have written about how to "Program your unconscious mind" here  in this post I will give a few tips about what your unconscious mind is busy doing.
If your Conscious mind is a wallet, your unconscious mind is your Luggage.

The unconscious mind has stored All experience. Including experience that has been experienced "Out of consciousness"
The Unconscious mind works well to help you, and is using previously programmed information. your most frequent filtering and beliefs.
in order to change a belief it must be reprogrammed in your unconscious mind.

As you may know all transformation is created by adjusting how you do your unconscious process and the goal is to overload the critical faculty and impress you unconscious mind with the new behavior.
Using NLP and Hypnosis for this is fast and thorough.




Of course bear in mind the Unconscious mind already is working and here is what the Unconscious mind is charge of:
Your Body Functioning, it is preserving your whole body functioning entirely. All of your Neurological process is unconscious.
You can also direct these processes by programming your unconscious mind to improve the way it is functioning.
An example of which is to relax and tell your breathing to slow down. Did you know that many mentalist's slow their heart rate down so that it practically stops but beats just enough to keep them alive.
And all Pain may be controlled by programming your unconscious mind.
Watch this Derren Brown clip from "Something Wicked This way comes"  

The Unconscious mind is in charge of your real Values carrying out, preserving and enforcing your Values, this is why some times a goal has not yet been achieved as there is an internal Values conflict. All new behavior must support your whole ecology and pass through your unconscious filters.

Your Emotional responses, your Brain chemistry how you are reacting according to your most used emotional responses another way of saying this is your moods.
Your Memories, Storing, repressing to protect you and representing memories in case you would like to deal with them.
Your real Preferences which means your real unconscious desires and not the ones you really don't like, (but want people to think you do like) and your filtered  perceptions.
Your Habitual behavior Patterns that you have done so much become second nature.
Your Beliefs that serve a higher purpose to your overall functioning.

Neuro linguistic programming is about improving your subjective reality which will improve your overall experience.

The best way to improve your experience is to practice using Neuro linguistic patterns that allow choice to become a normal part of your reality, and then choose a behavior that supports your outcome.

NLP is as Simple as this .. Mind over Matter | NLP is Fun

NLP is as simple as this



Use your Mind ...

Focus
Focus on what you want
Get clear about exactly what it is

Get specific and Associate to it 
Touch it
Feel it
See it
Experience it through regular visualization

Amplify your associations to make them even more life like
Build up your expectation, that you can have it for yourself
Double check your self image to see YOURSELF with it so much so that you can expect to have it in your hot hands.

Check your own self image in connection with this association 
Believe that you will get it by constantly clarifying and fully associating to an Amplified living image  of you with it.



Become certain about your success.
Create a propulsion system which is the equivalent of tipping the scales with your desire to outweigh the what ifs ..

Create a propulsion system
Desire must outweigh fear and anxiety of not getting or having it.

Associate to your desire, it must be:
White hot
Compelling
Congruent at every level


Be congruent 
Expect your unconscious mind to help you get it
Become certain only of your success.



Persist with all your might and get it

Self Confidence as a Formula | NLP is Fun

Recently I spoke about Faith and "Think and grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill. The info graphic I shared was my adaptation as I translated it into strategies we can use in NLP and Self Hypnosis.

The post was about having Faith and gaining it through Auto suggestion. When we speak about Auto suggestion we are speaking about Mind programming (Self Hypnosis).

Remember there are many benefits to using Self Hypnosis find out more here  the focus is on repeatedly giving yourself suggestions of what you want. You can do this via an Audio, writing, or pictures.
Your objective is to bypass the critical faculty and convince the unconscious mind.
Here is the "Self Confidence formula" which I Mentioned in that Post.


You can follow this outline to the "T" as a cheat sheet to keep yourself on track. when you program your mind, a whole new range of possibilities show up.

Btw if you enjoyed reading our NLP Blog then why not look through  some of our other informative posts on NLP is Fun.

How to develop Faith | NLP is Fun

I have written before about the NLP "Act as if"  Pattern here which is very helpful in rehearsing the idea of F.a.i.t.h :
Feel
As
If
You
Already
Have it.
This Info graphic is adapted from the "Self Confidence formula" described in the book Think and Grow Rich By Napoleon Hill.


Since I have been an NLP Mastermind Facilitator now for close to 4 years now.
Napoleon Hill speaks about the way to gain Faith through Auto suggestion which we call Self Hypnosis.
He speaks about suggestion and Mind power in programming the mind for success in order to get what you want.

In anyway of affirmation. The point is being relentless in persuading yourself it will happen.

To have confidence in oneself and ones contributions is essential. To believe that what you want and cannot see yet will materialize outside of your mind too.
In the Self love process I refer to it as "Standing with your self" If you have asked for it or put a project forward, then build up belief to impress on the unconscious mind that you are serious about it.

In other words have Faith, it will work out exactly how you want it to be.
Do you remember NLP Well formed outcomes you can read about it here  and if you want a relaxing strategy to get clearer using self hypnosis then set some time aside for 10 steps to congruent Goal achieving.

The clearer you get with your intentions, the more the unconscious mind will know exactly what you mean. And the more associated you will become to your outcomes.

Tricks of the Mind | NLP is Fun

The Mind is very good at convincing you of anything. This has nothing to do with if it is true or not.

Things that you are afraid of are just "What ifs", beliefs. your own home made ideas that you have had on rotation long enough to think of as real. Illusions we know by now that reality is subjective but try explaining that to somebody having a panic attack !
Instead though, there are so many things that you can do to quickly get control of Overwhelm and fear like this for example


To enjoy Peak states we must learn to begin to diligently break down these mental constructions in our mind at the times when there is no pressure to perform.


 You can train your mind to become your best friend and ally.

In NLP we speak about Phobia’s a great deal. Phobia’s are not the exception to the rule as one may 
think,  In fact, they are a demonstration of how easily we can influence ourselves with suggestions. 
This is Self hypnosis at it’s best.

We have programmed our mind to do what we have asked it to do.

“As the Thinker thinks the prover proves”.

Our mind wants to follow out our regular programming and is certainly resistant to change.

Change is good, as long as it is not happening in a way we don’t want it to right ?
Or perhaps this is not true.

Maybe even problems are good and hold value
Perhaps a challenge is just a chance to improve
What if we were to re frame the meaning ?

This means that (bad)
And that means for sure we are all going to die (worse)

And could also mean

This means that (Good)
And that means we will all get something better now 
Isn’t that a relief and a stress release ...

What if we did this instead ?

So the meaning we have decided without really knowing for sure in NLP we call this a "Mind read" which is a Distortion in the Meta Model.

There is information Deleted and yet we have drawn a very fuzzy conclusion.
Guess what, this happens all the time.

Sometimes it can be as simple as following the fear to it’s worst conclusion and then asking well 
what about if ________________________ happens

What will happen then 
And how will that affect you 
Is that really true ?

Do you know this for sure ?
Has there ever been a time when _____________ happened to anyone and they were OK 
Has there ever been a time when ___________________ happened and they were really good in fact they thrived?

This is about connecting to the distortions, as this happens it takes the stuffing out of them.

We are using the Meta Model to begin to chunk down from the ambiguous trains of thoughts.
This means if it is a thought it must earn its position to influence us so greatly.

We must know for sure it is absolutely
Solid Gold
Lock tight 
The absolute undisputed truth 
Verifiable
Provable
Swear on the bible
Everyone in the whole world will recognize it as truth without any problem.
In other words, it is a scientific fact well documented by scientists and other likely learned fellows.

Can you prove your Fear is absolutely True ?
Make a List of 10 ways in which you know for sure your Fear is going to happen.

Otherwise be willing to give it up, just saying .. If you enjoyed reading this Empowering NLP Blog post, you will love to look though more than 200 NLP Articles on NLP is Fun.

Reality is Subjective | NLP is Fun

You can program your mind for what you want, Think about Reality as being all in your mind.
When you think about this, anything will be possible if it is True.
And ..
You won't know if it is true or not, unless you experiment with it for yourself....

Some people have far to many reasons not to believe in what they want. They spend a great deal of time:
Feeling unhappy
Thinking about their problems
Protecting their Limitations
Arguing in defense of their self imposed Limitations
Then they get overwhelmed and their thinking patterns become a jumbled mess.
Reality is subjective to each persons experience. Even if lots of people participate in the same Event, each person will perceive it differently.
Having a Reality that works for you then is the ultimate goal.
A reality check is a reality that works in your favor then, isn't it ?

Otherwise, your mind will be dragging you around instead of leading yourself to absolute success in any endeavor
Having a Powerful mind is thinking, feeling and behaving on purpose.
Changing your mind may not happen overnight but in lots of cases life changing Mind Mastery happens super fast especially when using NLP.
The more each person immerses themselves in NLP and practice frequently the more intensely the change will be experienced.
Plus they will be spending less time feeling bad, and that in itself is amazing.

Thinking about what you want is more important than worrying about what you don't have.
And ..
The more you think about what you want,
1. The more real it feels.
2. The more likely you are to believe it is possible
3. The more familiar it will become to you
4. The more suggestions your unconscious mind will present to achieve it
5. The more you will be in alignment with your wants
6. The More committed you will be to your goals
7. The More Actions you will take to achieve your result
8. The faster you will achieve your outcomes
9. The sooner you will notice you are living your dreams
10. The more effectively and productive you will be in your life

Seems like a Great way to get more of what you want and experience pleasure at the same time.

What is stopping you | NLP is Fun

Is there something that you want and you do not seem to Go for it in the way you feel you "Could or should" ?
Many times people do not take the action they want unless they turn the "Could and Should" into a Must.
Unconscious Processes that Trigger negative emotions work against you. Change feelings to something that motivates you instead. | NLP is Fun

This has a great deal to do with what you are focusing on.
If I say to you what is stopping you, you may say well I can't do/have/go after it because ________
We have already spoken about the Significance and meaning you attach to your beliefs here .

1. You can spend time thinking about the result of what you want, in just 10 minutes each day for a whole week.
2. Motivate yourself as part of your strategy and then take action  now towards what you want.
3. The next week double up to 20 Minutes of focused attention on what you want each day.
4.The third week do 15 minutes a day and brainstorm the solutions with a dedicated notebook to your ideas.
5. Take another 15 minutes in moving the process forward, with Real Action.

Remember to spend a few moments Releasing stress before you begin to focus on what you want.

Notice what is working and what is not working and increase what works eliminate what isn't.
Always think about your self and your life in terms of Infinite possibility. 
Pretty soon you will begin to automatically Think of yourself and your current situation differently.

Virginia Satir Demonstrating Flexibility | NLP is Fun

Original NLP Patterns Contributor Virginia Satir of course was a Master of Change work. The way in which she was able to Relate and Communicate with people to achieve her outcome using Verbal and Non Verbal Communication was intoxicating to experience.


Virginia was beyond flexible, always looking for options and choices to dislodge the problem by re-framing the hidden possibilities and options.

She helped us to understand In fact, that the power to Change has everything to do with being willing to be flexible doesn't it.

Have you ever met a person who was unwilling to change and demanded that "things" stay the same or "go back to normal" ?
In fact they would somehow wrestle you to the ground in order to maintain the present state no matter how problematic.

In the following 2 Video's Virginia Satir demonstrates Several Examples of Flexibility.


What I also love about this Video is how she is willing to take many different  positions in response to one particular problem.

When people have a problem, they often perceive there are limited choice available. Perhaps presented as "this or that" and perhaps another option which they have ruled out as they feel as if "it is out of the question".

In this video the gentleman she is helping gets the chance to Phrase his "Problem" and explain it a little bit more every single time and for that he gets a Unique response to each of his statements.


Virginia uses Rapport in a way which demonstrates the value she holds for the Participant.

  • She consistently Paces his experience and gains agreement from him then will Lead him. 
  • She is an incredibly magnetic Influencer her certainty and determination is Palpable.
  • She remains energetic, enthusiastic, Focused and resourceful in her communication.
  • Virginia was an advocate for Self acceptance and self worth
  • She knew her own worth and was certain of it 
  • She valued other people always demonstrating to them their worth.

Virginia's use of Body language and Non verbals is purposeful and extremely Powerful.
 Please enjoy watching these awesome video's.

An available Transcript of these video's is available courtesy of Steve Andreas here 
There is so much we can say about these Video's from Real People Press and the whole lecture of which she was a Keynote speaker is available for purchase here

10 Solid Reasons you absolutely Must achieve your Goal | NLP is Fun

10 Solid Reasons you absolutely Must achieve your Goal | NLP is Fun

When you associate to your Goal, your Goal comes to life as a Reality. You know exactly what you want and exactly why it is important to you.
This is essential for Peak performance and acheivement.
Some time ago we spoke about Well formed Outcomes which is an NLP Staple to productivity.

I also wrote a post on 10 steps to congruent Goal achieving which I often use as a warm up to well formed Outcomes with my Coaching clients.
Before spending quality time doing these exercises, you can easily just simplify what you are doing for speedier results and fully associate V.A.K.O.G to every aspect of receiving it.


For this reason create a List of 10 Solid Reasons why you absolutely Must achieve this Goal, including all sensory experience (V.A.K.O.G):
What you will Visualize when you have it
What you will Hear when you have it
What you will Feel when you have it
What you will smell and taste once you have it

Immerse and delight yourself in the intense pleasure of it all.
Give yourself a sensory overload, so that it feels natural to you to have it.
This will make your Goal believable to your unconscious mind.
Keep this list somewhere that you can see it frequently throughout the day and remind yourself of this constantly.

If you liked this Article on our NLP Blog, then please share it with other people and enjoy all of the great posts in our NLP is Fun archives too.

NLP Language Patterns | Non Sequitur Suggestions | NLP is Fun

Lets talk about NLP Language patterns today.
Quite frequently people speak in Non Sequiturs they begin with one statement and attach another seemingly irrelevant statement as a conclusion.

This can be quite confusing and distracting to listen to. It is usually used as a detour, a decoy, the person changes the subject by using this technique and your attention must shift when you allow it to go unquestioned.

Many of today's Reality TV shows are filled with people who use these as everyday language.


If any of you work with Coaching clients or in Management of people these non Sequiturs often shine a light on a Limitation and disconnect in a persons thinking. The person is not connected to their own accountability role, due to a deficit in belief of the available resources perhaps.

On the other hand, they are wonderful to use as a pattern interrupt and a confusion induction in persuasion, covert Hypnosis and Ericksonian Hypnosis.
So let us play with them a little, or a lot ..

Here is what they sound like:

1.You can Hear the Relaxing sound of my voice so you will go into Trance faster with grace and ease
2.Lots of people have had success with NLP and you can Visualize yourself at your Best now
3.Exercise is great for the mind because you begin to notice yourself being even more productive now
4.Practice makes perfect so you can notice becoming even more confident
5.Everyone likes chocolate and having a good night of sleep helps a person wake up early in the morning

Example One:
There are three parts to this sentence:
First part of sentence 1.
"You can Hear the Relaxing sound of my voice"

Then a bridge in the middle
Second part of sentence 1.
"So you will" 

The third part is a totally unrelated end statement
End part of sentence 1.
"Go into Trance faster with grace and ease"

Example Two:
First part of sentence 2
"Lots of people have had success with NLP"

Second part of sentence 2
 "and you can"

End part of sentence 2
"Visualize yourself at your Best now "

Ok, I wonder if you are getting the hang of it now because then you will become more flexible in your own communication.

Have fun practicing these Non Sequitur Suggestions

Tip:
The two statements do not need to have any relationship to each other
It implies that the end result is a conclusion of the first statement
It does not need to make sense
It bypasses the critical faculty
The person goes inside their head to search for understanding of your statement = Hypnosis
Think in terms of rhythm when putting them together.

NLP External Auditory Representation System | NLP is Fun

People who prefer to use their hearing for internal Processing tend to indicate or even point towards their ears.
Their ears are attached and they are attached to their ears.
So much so that while listening their eyes will often shift from side to side.



As in Eye accessing cues going to Auditory Construct = Listen to (Right ) and Auditory Recall = Remembered Info (Left).
The sounds they experience are super important to them which means so are your words and Tonality.
So make sure you are following their own preferred style of communication by listening to when they breathe and speak at their own volume etc.

Their Primary Focus is in this area of processing, in order to understand and be understood faster is to use this Modality as a lead in your communication.

Also they have a quite dense way of communicating frequently in long winded explanations as opposed to direct short and sweet answers.

It could be said they enjoy the sound of their own words, on the outside too.
They also spend a great deal of time listening to their own words on the inside of their head.

If it seems they are inside more than Outside then they will be considered Internal Auditory Digital.
who are influenced by what is going on inside their head more than people who are Auditory and Externally Influenced.

External Auditory are very good at listening and they are looking for the whole story, an extremely detailed explanation, that answers all of their questions in your communication.

The NLP Communication Model 
They are interested in knowing how the whole process works and in what order they can expect it.
Then will do an internal Transderivational search (do you remember the NLP Communication Model ) which you will witness (if you are paying attention) In their accessing cues.

Frequently you will find their breathing responding to the Rhythm of the speakers tonality as they begin to process what they just heard.
This shows them "Trying it on"
If you want them to learn something new it is a good idea to play up to their hearing capabilities for them to be more "In tune" to what you are saying.

Remember if there is a great deal of noise competing with the Speaker, these listeners will become overwhelmed and distracted, so make sure you are in a place where they can hear you clearly.


You may already know that Auditory People are interested in Reading, Learning, Music, and Understanding new concepts.
They may always have a set of headphones on because sound quality means quality all the way around to them.
They are responsive in debates and have their own ideas with which they will want to compare new information to understand it perfectly.

Of course you will also use the Auditory Predicates to use their preferred words that describe their experience.You can re use the ones they have already picked if you like.

If you find that this reminds you of yourself, you can use this simple exercise to change the meaning in experiences you have had in the past that rubbed you the wrong way.
Once you get the hang of it you can use it every time because it is super easy to do.

Here is How to change the Movie Music

If you think about How a Movie Anchors you to the Music which heightens your viewing pleasure, you can do something similar in your own head.

1. Pick a Memory that you were extremely unhappy about.
a)Think about it, while noticing all images and sounds play it till then end as if it is a Movie.
b) Now Take Note of how you Feel after experiencing it all.

2. Pick a Song that is Upbeat (perhaps from a happy movie you liked) or your favorite Dance Tune, or a Hilarious Cartoon for example.
***Please note the new music has the power to change your state in a big way.
I like this one and the best part about it, is that I cannot keep still when I hear it.
Music that changes Physiology has a Massive amount of power for instant State change.
Remember pick the one you prefer.


 3.Now Crank it up at Top Volume so much so that You are feeling pretty Great and then, play the movie again all the way till the end of the song.

4. If you want to, do it as many times as you like, because I bet you your feelings will change each time.
a) Play it until you only have a connection to the Happy Tune
b) Turn the music off when you feel ready and rewind the movie to the beginning and notice how you feel
c) If that tune doesn't work, pick another tune one that you want to play with, maybe Rocky, (Gonna Fly now) which is another empowering favorite of mine.

Which way are you Going | NLP is Fun

Movement Changes Everything doesn't it ?
If you are not moving, you are not making progress, because nothing is changing.
When you move your Body, you change your state
You could be moving a little, or moving a lot and if you break a sweat, you will really begin to feel a sense of accomplishment too.
But even slow and steady has proven to win the race.


I felt a great sense of accomplishment today because I challenged myself to go Hiking after my morning work out and it felt great.
Movement is Action and Action is Movement.
I felt good because I went further than usual, and I could feel the stretch.
Make your Movements and Actions to all go in the direction of your wants.
I felt good because I knew I was conditioning my body and Mind in the area of better Health and well being.
This is one of my main goals at the moment and I am totally congruent about it and committed to it, in NLP Talk we call that Fully Associated.
Plus I was with my son, so I got to spend quality time with him while he was doing the same.


Moving in the wrong direction is still movement so It can create a change but perhaps more of the stuff you do not want.

When you feel unsure and have not made a commitment to what you are going to do, you may move in the opposite direction of what you want.
Sometimes without even realizing it, maybe because you are dissociated = Unplugged from what you really want.
Perhaps because you do not really believe in it yet.

Your Unconscious mind is in charge of the direction you move in, so make sure you are supercharged and plugged into what you have committed to.

Step into it and act as if your every step is moving you towards it, this is much more important that what you are hoping to change or avoid.
You want to make sure all of your attention is plugged in to what you want.

How much has having that problem cost you so far | NLP is Fun

Lets talk a little bit about Problems.
We all have them, and we have learned that it is not so much about the problem, that is the problem it is more about how you are responding to your problem, that could be the real problem.

For example do you believe that you are at Cause or Effect of the problem
At Cause = I can change it myself (I may need additional resources and yet it is possible) I will be accountable for designing my life.

At Effect = I cannot change it, it is beyond my own personal influence (I will wait until it blows over) in the meantime I will place the blame on people and things.

Your Beliefs are influencing what you think and that is influencing your behavior.
Beliefs = Thoughts = Feelings = Actions = Behavior


In the long run, is that really working for you in the way you had hoped for ?
Your Beliefs can be changed at any time, just by your decision to do something about it.

Once of the best things to do is to reverse engineer your results and find out if you think your action (in a certain behavior) supported your outcome.
If you don't think it did then you can begin to learn why you did not necessarily put your best foot forward.

Lots of people do great things most of the time, some time and then may also talk about ways in which they self sabotage themselves regularly.
The more choice and flexibility we live by the greater chance we have of Winning in any situation.

Something that Richard Bandler likes to ask is "How much Time and money have you spent on that problem"
So lets do this as a homework assignment:


Get a piece of paper and ask yourself:
What has having this problem cost me so far in actual money
What has having this problem cost me so far in Time and Energy 

How much more will this problem cost me in the next:
6 months
12 Months
2 years
5 years 

If you like you can begin to experience it on your timeline since you like having this problem and enjoy the full impact of being fully associated to the problem for a change.

Ok then, so what are you going to do about it ?
