In this episode, we’ll delve deeper into the final three NLP Presuppositions - that all procedures should increase wholeness, that all procedures should be designed to increase choice, and that behaviour and change should be evaluated in terms of context and ecology.

Much like other NLP presupps such as people are doing the best they can with the resources they’ve got, and we all have everything within us when we need to make the changes we want in our life, the presupps we are looking at i…

As you follow these podcasts, one of the pictures you will be starting to form about NLP is its expansive nature. As we apply NLP in our lives, we get to expand our notion of what is possible for humans to achieve. 

In NLP, we emphasise ways of being, thinking, and doing, that increase growth, choice, possibility, personal responsibility, and ultimately, personal power. Together, they can be seen as the characteristics of what Carol Dweck a Professor of Psychology at Stanford University cal…

Last week, we explored three NLP presuppositions that focus on acknowledging and accepting our personal power through redefining our responsibility as communicators.

This time, we’ll delve deeper into two more NLP Presuppositions that really challenge us to see the world from a different perspective  - that people are not their behaviours, and that everyone is doing the best they can with the resources they have available.

In NLP, we describe this as taking up different perceptual positi…

In this episode, we’ll explore three more presuppositions of NLP. First, is that resistance to communication is a sign of a lack of rapport. Second, is that the most important information about a person is their behaviour. And lastly, that there is no failure, only feedback.

These 3 presuppositions share a common emphasis on looking for meaning beyond just our words or actions or outcomes. They focus on acknowledging and accepting our personal power through redefining our responsibility as …

The Presuppositions of NLP provide us with a compass that guides us as we use and apply powerful NLP techniques to take control of our own lives and really make a difference. These presuppositions form the ecological framework that ensures the practice of NLP is constructive and expansive rather than restrictive and destructive.

In this episode, we’ll take a closer look at two of these important presuppositions - The map is not the territory, and having respect for the other person’s model …

As we begin our 2nd season of the NLP Matters Podcast, we move on to explore what is perhaps the most fundamental component of NLP, the NLP presuppositions. These presuppositions provide us with the compass that guides us as we use and apply powerful NLP techniques to take control of our own lives and really make a difference.

There are a number of presuppositions of NLP., in fact, 14 in all. Despite the fact that they have varying origins, they form the basis upon which the work of NLP is …

We have spent much of the past few months discussing and applying a number of NLP strategies to the setting of our goals using NLP techniques like the Be-Do-Have model, 6 Core Needs, the 5 Principles of Success, the Keys to An Achievable Outcome, and the Well-Formedness Conditions, with each strategy adding a new layer to the journey of Building our Successful Life and ensuring our goals are robust and resilient.

In this episode, we’ll draw all these threads together so we can see how unsto…

Over the past few weeks, we have seen how when taken individually, the Well-Formedness Conditions give us a great understanding on the specifics of our outcome and what needs to be done to achieve it. This also means we get even more clarity on who we need to be to deliver on the actions that will ultimately get us our results. 

In this episode, we will get to see just how powerful this strategy becomes when we combine all the Well-Formedness Conditions together and apply them all to our ou…

The NLP technique of Well-Formedness Conditions, which adds the final layer to the journey of Building our Successful Life and ensuring our goals are robust and resilient. So far, we have looked closely at the first five of the Well Formedness Conditions.

In this episode, we’ll explore the Well-Formedness Condition of expanding on the sensory specific details that describe the first step on the way to achieving our goal. And once we’ve done that, we’ll look at the final step of the Well-For…

When we have completed the first of the 5 Success Principles, Knowing our Outcome, we can use the Keys to an Achievable Outcome, and then,  the Well-Formedness Conditions to get an even greater understanding on the specifics or our outcome and the targeted actions required to achieve this outcome. This also means we get even more clarity on who we need to be to deliver on these actions that will get our results.

Having looked at steps 1, 2 and 3, in the Well-Formedness Conditions the next s…
