Hi Friends

I have just came back from Orlando (Florida) after attending Society of NLP’s Charisma Enhancment Trainers Training.

It was an amazing experience to meet Dr Richard Bandler …… as usual …. and watching him on stage performing his magical NLP Demos and his story-telling skills.

For those of you who have not seen Dr Richard Bandler before, I have provided a video below so that you can appreciate his style of communication:

So the following are 5 Critical Success Factors that I personally felt that they may be useful to you. Do note that some may be new , some may be a reinforcement to something that you may already know. So there you go:

#1 SENSE OF HUMOUR

OK. Now this you know. You may think that you know. It’s what you know but rather when you communicate with another person, are you able to elicit a response from them where they might smile or laugh so that the ice is broken between you and the person you are communicating. The secret lies in Richard’s ability to use his facial expression, tonality and body language. Watch the video below:

#2 Usage of a Nested Loops

Nested loops are usage of stories where only half of any story is told at the beginning where the 2nd half will be told at the end. I have been using such stories in most of my trainings. Purpose of Nested Loops is to plant ideas to the unconscious mind and for the audience to connect the dots. If you are still wondering what are Nested Loops, have you ever wonder why some action movies will show the most exciting segment right at the beginning and then suddenly, it leaves you hanging at the most critical point. The movie will then start from the beginning, continue with the flow until the end where the story will then link back to the exciting moment which was shown right in the beginning. It’s a great example of story telling where it catches your attention right in the beginning, suspense your interest and reveal the other half of the exciting portion right at the end.

An example will be a short clip below from the movie Inception. Watch the entire clip below and see how one scene jumps abruptly to another:

 #3 Usage Spatial Anchors

I have used this numerous times in my presentation to engage audience and it was a great reminder again. If you are new to this phrase ‘spatial anchors’, it simply means usage of space (ie. spatial) on the floor/stage to tell a specific story and then another space to tell a different story and so on. The purpose is so that each specific space Anchors a specific story which may elicit a certain state from the audience.

#4 How Behaviour Can be Shifted Using Submodalites 

Before I explain what are Submodalities, let me ask you a few questions:

(i) “Recall a moment in time where you felt absolutely happy …….”

(ii) “Are there pictures, sound and/or feelings in your mind right now?”

If there are pictures (Visual), sound (Auditory) or feelings (Kinethetic) in your mind, each of these is a Modality. If there are picture(s) in your mind, are the pictures small/big, near/far, black & white/colour? The finer elements of each Modality is a Submodality. Small/Big is a Submodality of the Visual Modality.

Watch the video below to witness how Dr Richard Bandler guide the volunteer to ‘play’ with the image and video in his mind.

Pay attention to the story which Dr Richard Bandler told right at the end of the demo? Do you know what is the message behind the story?

#5 Usage of Embedded Commands

I wonder what are embedded commands by itself is an embedded command ……..

Hi Friends

I remembered years ago when I came across a video called “The Last lecture”. It was really inspiring and it shared how a man by the name of Dr Randy Paush faced death when he knew he was dying soon.

Watch this video below:

In 2010, after I survived Kidney Cancer and written my will, I have always wanted to leave my story behind for my children. After delaying for almost 2 years and with the help of a good friend, Aurelia, I finally summarised and convert my story into 2 digital stories. Hope you like it.

Story 1 – “It Happened to Me”

Story 2 – “While I am Alive”

Hi Friends

If you are reading this message, it’s the 2nd Monday for Year 2010. In case you have Monday Blues, that’s right, you really have. When you stepped out of your house to work in the morning, the sky will be clear and blue with probably some clouds that resemble some familiar objects. If you recalled the last time you have been to a beautiful beach, the sea will be blue, crystal clear blue with schools of colourful marine fishes. You could probably hear a flock of seagulls calling out for each other.

If you want to be motivated on every Monday, ask yourself these few questions:
1) “What is the highest purpose that drives you what you are going to do today?”
2) What you are going to do today, you are doing “For whom?” and “For what?”
If you have found an answer that motivates you, good for you. If not, keep searching. What Monday ‘Blues’ you have will be determined by the answers that you get.

We are going to have a great Monday because we choose to. We all have a choice. That makes us human.

Let me dedicate a song for you to start your week: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q40AIqGsHRE&feature=channel.

“You see, it’s never the environment; it’s never the events of our lives, but the meaning we attach to the events – how we interpret them – that shapes who we are today and who we’ll become tomorrow.” Anthony Robbhins.

Motivation Strategy

Want to know how to motivate yourself, motivate others, build rapport and influence others?

One of the secrets of success lies in understanding the sequence of thoughts of how you and other people think inside the mind before you or others act.

For example, ask yourself this question and think it through in a sequential manner. What are the sequence of events that have taken place before you purchase your watch, your shoe, your shirt/blouse? Was it something you see? Or something you hear? Or it’s just a feeling? Continue to ask these questions and you will realise that there is a sequence that has taken place before your make a decicion. Interesting, isn’t it?

Imagine the application that you can have to make yourself stay in a peak performance any time you want. Imagine a scenario that you can build rapport and influence other people positively in any way you want. Wouldn’t that be worthwhile and meaningful for you? For more information, you can read this article Basic Motivation Strategy.

Studies show that NLP skills can be learned by anyone to improve their effectiveness both personally and professionally.
