NLP ‘s birth was based in modelling successful practitioners of change; Virgina Satire, Fritz Perls and Milton Erickson, people who achieved results beyond what others in their respective fields were achieving. Modelling exceptional performance and then being able to duplicate this is what NLP in essence delivers.
The tools that were originally assembled from modelling success in this way became the tools that make up the core NLP processes.
However NLP is continually evolving as success in different fields has been modelled and the strategies involved duplicated and installed in others so that anyone can achieve similar results if they so choose. Originally theses skills were transferred to the fields of counselling, motivation and coaching. Today you can see this in many different fields and probably most notably in the fields of training, sales, sports coaching, wealth coaching and management.
The next step in the process is to understand that everyone has the ability to change and have the life they really want. It is easy to change our current responses and actions, it's simply a matter of choice, and having the tools to implement that change, this is what NLP excels at.
How does this all work I hear you ask?
Well essentially we have a range of external stimuli (visual, audio/sound, touch/kinaesthetic, taste, smell and internal in terms of our self talk) which go through a series of internal filters, this is then stored as an internal representation which is linked to a state (our feeling) which impacts our physiology and is experienced externally by the rest of the world as our behaviour.
So if I want to change my behaviour I simply have to discover the current linkages in the process and change that process thus delivering different and more resourceful outcomes.
