Milton Model

The use of Or

Now I know the title of this article sounds like a bad version of the Wizzard of Oz, but we are here for the The use of “Or” in presuppositions which is part of the Milton Model. Some of you reading this article have kids. And by the way, having kids is not to be ashamed about. Yet continue reading this article you will discover something very familiar. Lets start with an example. Did you ever had difficulties making your kids do homework? Here is the trick. If you ask them “Please do your homework.” the answer is “No” or “Later” or whatever response they are giving you. Logical, because a kid is honnest in their response. Now, just for the demonstration of it, refrase the question and ask something like: “Do you do your homework before or after dinner?”.

Chunk Size

NLP Meta Program Chunk Size

Do not bite-off more than you can chew is an old saying. The NLP Meta Program Chunk Size let’s you understand the hierarchy of it and as well how to recognize and use it. Let’s start with a description that will make you clear what the NLP Meta Program Chunk Size is all about. Imagine the Earth, the earth is divided by land and oceans. The land is divided by continents. Continents on their turn are divided by countries. A country has cities. Cities have roads and homes. One of those roads leads to your home. Your home has rooms. This room has stuff in it. At least this room has walls. These walls are made of something solid. This solid part contains carbon. Now if you agree or disagree your room has stuff in it, it is ok. The demonstration we make here is that there is a sort-order from world view up until the smallest particle we are able to recognize.

Find

Find your Life Purpose

Find your Life Purpose is easier said than done. Many people struggle with this question. Being on the verge of being burnt-out or even worse, being bored-out. Years ago, we asked ourselves, how can we create a system that evaluates and makes the necessary changes to get us on course to where we wanted to be. When we started to develop this system around 6 years ago we were suffering a bad performing business, money-sucking employees and bad food.

Admire

Model abilities of successful persons you admire

For most of my adolescence and young adulthood, I fantasized about being a musician. A rock star, in particular. Any badass piano song I heard, I would always close my eyes and envision myself up on stage playing it to the screams of the crowd. People absolutely losing their minds to my sweet playing on the piano. This fantasy could keep me occupied for hours on end. The fantasizing continued up through college, even after I dropped out of music school and stopped playing seriously. But even then it was never a question of if I would ever be up playing in front of screaming crowds, but when.

10 Reasons

10 reasons to learn NLP with Mind Tools

There are many reasons why so many people have already joined us and graduated in this comprehensive and advanced NLP Practitioner Training Program with Mind Tools. When we started to learn NLP by taking the NLP Practitioner’s Course, we thought we knew what to expect. It was a psychology/personal development program that can be utilized to help others with specific problems that they may have. But learning NLP ended up being so much more than that. We did not realize we would be plunged deep into the inner workings of the mind, exploring all aspects of how our brains compute different scenarios, and how we deal with them.

Certification

NLP Certification

Did you see the advertisements online? Advertisements about NLP Certification? Double, Triple even Quadruple NLP Certification in a small amount of time. Hilarious! If you are in the “game” of getting certifications fast, we suggest you invest in a good color printer and start printing all the certificates you want. It is much cheaper to buy a printer! You are able to print them on demand. And basically it will show you nothing but the print. Mind Tools does not believe in getting the most of certificates out of a single training. We do believe in quality training as we have learnt from Dr. Richard Bandler and the Society of NLP.

NLP Strategies

NLP Strategies – Let’s start with NLP first. NLP is a meta discipline. That is, it is a discipline of disciplines. It is the study of the structure of subjective experience and what can be calculated from that. Now a strategy is a high level plan to achieve one or more goals under certain conditions. For example, the specific strategy is traveling trough at least two representational systems. To remind you, the Representational System consists out of our Five Senses. Visual, Auditory, Kinesthetic, Olfactory and Gustatory. Combining these two we come to NLP strategies. For example: You have learnt in our NLP Practitioner to use your five senses, to generate and maintain rapport. All useful tools to execute a strategy.
