Jim Rohn Quote - You're not a tree


NLP Presuppositions – 8. You cannot not communicate



Neuro-Linguistic Programming Presuppositions – 8. You cannot not communicate

I have come across many people who think it is possible to not communicate. The idea that you cannot communicate is one of the top communication myths.
You always communicate and will always continue to communicate. Your nonverbal communication illustrates the thoughts and feelings inside of you. While your thoughts remain hidden, a snicker in your smile, a wink in your eye, or a sigh of relief communicates a message without you needing to verbalize a message.
Thought provoking question - What is it that your think you are not communicating, but really are?

NLP Presuppositions – 7. A positive intention exists beneath every behavior

Neuro-Linguistic Programming Presuppositions – 7. A positive intention exists beneath every behavior

You might yell to be heard. Fight to establish justice. Smoke to feel relaxation. Retreat to feel comfortable. Remain in bed to avoid the pain that awaits you. These are all positive intentions.
A positive intention does not mean the behavior is correct, healthy, or the best option. Rather, knowing a positive intention or fundamental human need exists behind behaviors and communication enables you to resourcefully act. When you see positive intentions, you are more able to separate the problem from the person and update your map.

NLP Presuppositions – 6. Change what is not working



Neuro-Linguistic Programming Presuppositions – 6. Change what is not working


The old saying, “If you keep doing what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got” is so true. This presupposition encourages people to stop doing what is ineffective. If you want something new, start doing something new.
It is sick to see parents use unhealthy ways of disciplining their children. Every action by the child gets a consequence placed around it. To the parent’s disbelief, the child continues to push those consequences. The parent thinks it’s the child’s problem, but the parent is too ignorant and stuck in habitual behavior to realize that what he or she does is not working.

NLP Presuppositions – 5. If one person can do something, anyone can learn to do it



Neuro-Linguistic Programming Presuppositions – 5. If one person can do something, anyone can learn to do it


This presupposition is modeling, doing what someone else does. It forms the foundation of NLP where individuals observe successful persons then mimic what makes them successful. Someone who wants similar success to a person they admire are to learn and do what makes the person successful, which leads to their own success. Successful individuals for centuries have modeled successful predecessors.
One of my favorites, a simple belief that takes away the "I'll never be able to do that" syndrome.
