Hi Wendy,

I cam across your website by accident but I really like your blog. I would love to learn more about NLP and how it might
help me.

I’m only 21 years old, but I suffer from similar symptoms – depression, loss of interest, under-achievement, being over-emotional, doubting myself and capabilities. People always tell me I’m extra smart and I should ‘do something’ with my life. Problem is, I don’t really know how to. Things I once enjoyed are a distant memory, and although I *want* to be whole and happy again, I don’t what those words mean anymore or how I can change my feelings.

This intervention you talk about seems like it could help me. I have gone to counselors and taken medication in the past but it never really went away. How can this NLP help me? Where do I find someone that can do it?

I have sooo many GOOD business ideas and other interests I want to achieve in life, but first I need to get rid of this negative shadow and ‘emptiness’ inside of me. I need to find that motivation and thrill in life that I once had but now have lost due to multiple situations in the past 4-5 years.

I want to start a business in the next 2 years. I want to invest in real estate. But mostly, I just want to be whole again – can you help me?

Eager to Leap forward in 2008.

You blessed my life today.

[...] I will get uncomfortable and make public my ’stretch’ dreams/goals, which include speaking at BlogHer in Chicago, running a few motivational live events, obtaining my NLP Master Practitioner certification with Tad James in LA, and landing a book deal. [...]

Andreas – you are more than welcome to quote me on this. I really owe my life to that intervention, so I’m eternally grateful to Bandler and Grinder for developing NLP in the first place – and I’m honored to help spread the technology all over the planet.

Wendy, I am organising my first NLP Cert Pract Training in Malaysia. Do you mind whenI use your quote inmy brochure and attributeit to you, of course? You expressed the beauty of NLP so beautifully, that I just want to take it!! Possible?

Andreas – How exciting that you trained with Tad himself. My NLP teacher spent 6 weeks with Tad this last summer obtaining his train the trainer certifications. I would like to take my Master Pracitioner certification with Tad depending on dates/locations he is offering it in ‘07! And thanks for the link as well – hope to bump into you again soon!

Joshua, I’ll def keep you posted and I share your passion for Tony Robbins – LOVED the firewalk!!! Please drop by again!

well done on the information on NLP. I feel that the malaysian society should be more exposed to motivational program such as this as it may help a lot in the benefits of the nation as a whole. NLP can be used to help drugs addicts or even smokers to quit their habits. I won;t say that this is hypnotism but rather a science of success. I personally haven;t been exposed to NLP but i’m really interested in knowing more about it since i’ve also participted in the UPW by Anthony Robbins and it;’s great to know that he himself changed because of NLP as well. Do update me on any possible seminar or workshop k? Goodluck

Great going. Just came across here by chance (via Technorati). Finished my NLP Trainer Cert in Australia, with Tad James. I have to agree. NLP changes life. It changed mine dramatically, and now I am ready to open my own NLP consulting business. Yeah. There is nothing better than seeing people transform magically. Keep going!

As your story is great, i will link to it from my blog, if I may.

[...] Transition the following intention: From :: “I want to take my blog and business to the next level” To :: “There is ALWAYS another level :: What can I do to consistently prepare for and foster growth?”This one may sound anal and like I’m being too much of an overachiever. And it sounds like a lot of work. But one of the biggest lessons learned in my NLP course is that change is so simple and so easy, if you can 1) access the right resources and 2) you have a recipe for success. [...]

[...] If you followed my directions correctly – you will find that you added at least some (or perhaps a TON) of motivation to a state that once made you feel lazy. And you may, like I used to, dismiss this exercise as something so simple that it couldn’t work – yet as you try it now, you’ll find that indeed it does work – and it just may surprise you as to how WELL it works!! That’s just one example of how the use NLP can change your experience. It’s uses are as varied as the individuals on this planet. It has applications in therapeutic processes, in HR (as CJCM rightly pointed out), in sales, in relationships, and… believe it or not, in home businesses too (bet you saw that one coming!! ). [...]

This is the course I had asked the HR department where I work to enroll me in couple of months back. But unfortunately it didnt materialize due to tight schedule of my work. It would have been great because the company would have paid for it and we can even claim the cost from HR Development Fund…a fund setup by the government for employees training. I hope to have the opportunity to enrol in the future.

Good thing about NLP is the wide range possible applications even in business….Wendy…you have definitely hit the jackpot…Certified NLP Practitioner can make lots of money if you decide to embark on consulting in NLP.

Congratulation on your certification.

Yes it does. And I think I have a cousin who’s tried (not nearly so well) to explain this to me. At least it sounds like a version of something she talks about now and then. I’ll have to ask her about it.

Since asking the question (which I probably did too quickly) I found 2 books on NLP at one of our branches and I’ve put holds on them.

From the descriptions I thought it sounded like Self-Talk. But what you’re talking about sounds very different.

Very clever of you to use a food example! You must have known how that would draw me right into your web!

Great question KB – and I’ll likely give you a longer answer in another post (if you are asking, I’m sure that others are too).

NLP is Neuro Linguistic Programming. It’s the art and science of how the brain codes information, and changing the coding to drastically change your results – from emotions, to likes and dislikes, habits, etc.

For example, if you like ice cream, you have a certain picture in your mind of ice cream, with a certain focus, brightness, location, etc. You also have certain feelings and/or sounds associated with ice cream. If you hate yogurt, you have a different picture in your mind, most likely in a different location, with a different focus and location (probably dimmer) as well as different feelings and sounds.

NLP enables you to “code” ice cream the same way as you “code” yogurt – so that you will now dislike them both. It’s a simplistic explanation and of course, there’s way more to it, but it gives you an understanding of how using NLP can basically ‘rewire’ your brain.

Make sense??

Wendy!

Wow — NLP sounds wonderful but (stupid question alert) WHAT IS IT?

My goal is to use my Internet/Programming/Writing skills to earn enough money that I can move to San Francisco in 2 years. It’s my home town and I want to go back.

I don’t have to live in the lap of luxery there. And I don’t even particularly want to own a home there (I don’t think I need the stress of a million dollar mortgage no matter how much I’m making) But I would like a comfortable apartment with enough room for mister and me and an office.

I’ve got A LOT of ideas for projects. And one of the reasons I like hanging out here is that I feel very at home with your enthusiasm and energy.

I’d love to talk about some of my ideas. But first, WHAT is NLP?

Congrats, Wendy. NLP is a wonder and powerful tool. I’m been using the technologies for many years, though I’m not certified (*certifiable*, maybe ). It’s a great resource for personal change and development.

I went through seminar a few years back that related the NLP tools to the EQ and Emotional Intelligence concepts. Pretty interesting stuff.
