Secrets Of Understanding NLP

By Lan Thomas


Neuro-linguistic Programming or NLP is the study of how the human mind functions to communicate. Communication here is in the quest to achieving personal goals that are needed as the skill sets in life. The process entails the formation of ideas and articulating them for personal gains.

An individual behavior is determined by the NLP process; this is acquired through experiential learning. The programming is what many people believe as determining success or failure in life. What is learned to a larger extend determines an individuals direction in making choices. Observing others contribute to ones behavior due to the effect of the mental programming.

Those who strive to dig deeper in understanding NLP usually get stuck between studying the whole concept or just some part of it. It becomes more complicated and confusing as you dig deeper to understand what it means in real life. In a nutshell, the programming helps people imitate or ape others successes and avoid failures. The human brain is very selective and only chooses what is easily achievable and avoids risks.

This explains why NLP is seen as the experiential part of human nature that is harnessed to produce the desired results. A world class soccer player for instance can be taken as the measure of what is humanly possible and an asset that can be replicated to achieve the same goals by others.

NLP looks at what has been internalized by the player to become who they are through negating the entire process that the player has gone through to become great in their specialty forgetting the devotion part of the process. NLP works on the assumption that by interviewing a top achiever, you can do better than them through replicating and negating the process of goal achievement.

The NLP processes help in developing persuasion skills in humans, how people work or function and deal with the issues of counseling, coaching and therapies as well. It also helps in creating friendships even if it is for convenience sake. When our mind is programmed, we exude confidence and are able to build short term relationships with people next to us albeit for a short period. Speeches are born of the confidence that NLP helps us built and plays a major role in team participation and individual realization of life long goals.

NLP is enables one with the ability to induce trance which evokes imagination based on emotion leading to a better understanding of how humans act the way they do and why. This is the ability to influence others by using their values to make their own decisions through the use of language in a more effective way. This process of influencing is I actual sense a method of programming the human mind.

The way our minds are programmed enable us influence others according to what we think is right. When these thoughts are translated to verbal communication, we try and get value on the information. NLP shapes our verbal techniques for us to be understood and understand others.
