NLP

Neuro Linguistic Programming.

My new found love... hah.

It's amazing how much NLP can really push you forward in your thought process.

I've always been one to observer my surroundings and want to be better than the average person at everything. It's another thing to discover the power of NLP and it's use in everyday life situations.

I now realize the importance of proper communication. How you say something might have a different impact on any person you might be talking to.

Essentially, we all use different techniques to communicate. It's being able to figure out how that person chooses to communicate AND being able to adapt to it, that's important.

NLP teaches you different methods to do this effectively.

The biggest bonus out of all of this, is the amount of confidence it brings with it. You learn how to properly ask for what you want, or understand what the other person might want. You begin to feel less limited!

I'll update this blog with more info as I read more about it.

I joined a group recently that does NLP in toronto.... Just need to attend at some point.

As well, I will eventually update this blog with another book I'm reading on how to properly sell an idea to someone else.

.... All this in preperation for my move to a photography career where I will need to sell myself properly and effectively.

The key is to make sure you have the building blocks in place so that you have a proper framework to build off of. Only then can you climb the mountain without worrying that your base might not be strong enough...

It also feels like I've managed to remove any ounce of shyness that I once had.
