Soaring Success

This article was written by Hugh Comerford of NLP Centres Canada and posted on Facebook.

NLP is a set of tools and processes extracted originally in the 1970s from the world of ‘brief therapy’. The originators of NLP studied therapists who were able to assist their clients much faster and in many cases much more effectively than the rest of the therapeutic community.

In fact, originally NLP referred only to the actual modeling tools; the tools that extracted the conscious and unconscious processes by which these ‘wizards of therapy’ effected miraculous changes in their clients.

Over time, the actual processes themselves have come to symbolize NLP.

The most famous ‘NLP Practitioner’ is Tony Robbins, but the work he does is more about performing NLP than really teaching people how to use it to help themselves.

NLP in some ways is a distillation of ‘what works’ in any situation, then ‘what works’ is turned into a step-by-step process that anyone can use to increase or enhance their own performance, often appearing to be ‘magical’ in its effect.

Some of the more famous NLP Processes help people get rid of simple phobias (spiders, cats, dogs, flying, etc) in about 15 minutes. Another famous process helps people get rid of allergies in one session. Both these techniques have been proven in clinical trials.

NLP doesn’t really care why or how something works, only that it does.

Frankly, this interest in results versus proof has been the achilles heel of NLP and has directly kept it from being recognized as a tremendous set of tools with the power it has to change people’s lives for the better.

That said, many people have and continue to use NLP to help them do incredible things they would otherwise never be able to do, and to help others overcome significant obstacles in their lives.

Some quotes from very famous people about NLP:

• “NLP helps me to manage audiences and motivate them. It is just amazing.”
  — Oprah Winfrey
• “I built my sales career from zero to become the world best motivator by using NLP”
  — Anthony Robbins
• “NLP produces results and improves rapport. I want all my staff to attend the training.”
  — James Olson, former chairman, AT&T
• “NLP is one of the biggest breakthroughs in the technology of achievement and human excellence.”
  — Time Magazine
• “NLP could be the most important synthesis of knowledge about human communication to emerge since the explosion of Humanistic Psychology in the sixties.”
  — Science Digest
