are you feeling overwhelmed trying to
learn NLP stay tuned neuro-linguistic
programming is the study and the
technology of creating the life that you
desire and for the past several years
I've been studying and mastering NLP in
order to create the life that I desire
and now to help you create the life that
you desire so if that sounds good to you
please click subscribe to this YouTube
channel so you can get these videos on a
regular basis now that I'll be opening
enrollment for my NLP online
practitioner training and I've been
putting announcements out there I've
been getting a lot of questions from
people asking what's the best way to get
started learning NLP what's the best way
to continue practicing NLP and learning
and growing and even mastering NLP once
you already have training and also
what's better live NLP training or
online NLP training basically that's
what this video will be exploring what
is better live NLP training online NLP
training what do you do to get started
with your NLP training and also how do
you master NLP after you have some
training already
and finally I'll give you the best
strategy for mastering NLP that has
worked for me and that has pretty much
worked for anyone who has mastered NLP
so let's get started if you're just
getting started with NLP or you want to
get started with NLP and you're
wondering what's better online classes
or live classes there's really pros and
cons to both I started with live
training I'm very much a person who
likes to be in person with people and I
didn't grow up with the internet and
internet really came around whenever I
was just getting out of high school and
just getting into college so I'm used to
live trainings
what's good about live training is that
most live training will let you they'll
give you time to practice it at least
once whatever that it is they're
teaching you get an opportunity to
practice once the basic protocol or the
structure of live training is the
instructor gives a conceptual
understanding like a lecture about an
NLP concept or process then the
instructor demonstrates the process
with a volunteer and then you have time
to go and practice with a partner like a
breakout session for about 15 or 20
minutes you usually only get one
opportunity to practice because then you
have to get back into class and if you
got a lot of practice then these classes
would be stretched out and last a lot
longer usually a practitioner training
is anywhere between seven and seven days
and and two weeks any practitioner
training out there that that only goes
for three or four days don't even bother
with that there's no way you can learn
everything you need to learn in three or
four days and if anyone is saying that
you can become a practitioner in such a
short amount of time I would question
the ethics of that teacher so I would
even general just avoid those so live
trainings you get that opportunity to
practice once now I do know some live
trainings that do not give you any
practice so it's basically the teacher
teaches the concept demonstrates it and
then you're onto the next the next
process or NLP concept if that's the
type of live training that is available
to you or that you're looking at I would
not do that training the one of the
things about the live training that is
important when the big plus is about
live training is that you do get to
practice it and if it's not working you
can talk to say like a resource coach or
the instructor and get help right there
on the spot if you're not able to do
that the live training isn't that it
kind of takes this the the steam out of
what's good about a live training the
downside of live trainings is that
usually you have to travel somewhere and
I'm really lucky I live in California I
live in Santa Cruz where NLP was created
I have access to some of the teachers
who were there for them from the
beginning I have access from the when I
first started I had access to a lot of
different instructors and training is
nearby but a lot of people depending on
where where you're from or where you're
living right now you may not have any
trainings going on around you so you
have to fly somewhere or you have to
travel by car and the trainings tend to
be like I said a week long or two weeks
long or maybe they're one week in a
month for several months and so that
there's travel time and
on top of it live trainings are
expensive to put on so you'll pay
sometimes three times the amount of what
it would cost to do an online training
so that would be the downside of it you
might not have easy access to a live
training and because of travel cost and
just overall live trainings being more
expensive it's a little more it's a
little harder on your bank account the
great thing about online NLP trainings
is the convenience
you can do them from your phone you can
do them from your tablet or your desktop
computer and they tend to be a lot less
expensive in fact they tend to be more
like a third or even less of the cost of
doing a live training the downside to
online training is that you don't have
an instructor there watching and
supervising your practice having someone
there to help you while you're
practicing kind of supervise the
practice is probably the best way to
practice so not only is the upside to an
online training the fact that you don't
have to travel anywhere and it's usually
less expensive to do an online training
the other good thing is you get to
revisit the material as much as you want
if it were a live class the only way you
get to revisit the material is the next
time they're holding the class and then
typically you do have to pay again to
take the class again so online trainings
you can you typically you have lifetime
access so you can just keep revisiting
the material and keep going through it
over and over
the downside to both live training and
online training typically is that you're
pretty much on your own after the
training or you're pretty much on your
own to practice practice is where you
really learn NLP practice is where you
really develop this NLP skills you know
key understandings you can sit in
lectures all day long you can watch
demonstrations all day long whether on
the internet or in person and you're not
going to learn NLP after I took my first
NLP training my first practitioner
training I realized this I came out of
and said okay I have some understanding
it's more theoretical and conceptual
I've gotten some practice in NLP but I
realized right then that it was I was
really on my own to learn NLP
through practicing so I just started
going through my manual I went through
my manual three times I found a practice
partner I found I created a practice
group I would implement NLP into my
daily life and that's where I really
learned in LP and that's where anyone's
going to really learn NLP after my
training as my instructors were gone I
couldn't talk to them I couldn't ask
them questions typically they were very
busy they were traveling they were
teaching in other countries sometimes
they would respond to an email so
sometimes I'd get a question answered
but in general the instructors were gone
so I had no access to them later after a
while I got into more deeper into
training and I started resources
coaching for trainers so I had more
access to them that way and typically
with online trainings they don't give
ongoing support you don't have access to
the instructor who created the training
and that's actually what's different
about my online trainings I do give that
support because I know that is critical
and that is crucial and so you can watch
you can go through my online trainings
and you'll get a lot out of it but if
you don't practice you're really not
going to learn you're really not going
to understand NLP so which is better
which one do I suggest that you do
actually I would suggest that you do
both I did both I did online trainings
and I did live trainings I preferred the
live trainings that's just personal
preference everybody's different
it doesn't mean one's really better than
the other like I said there's pros and
cons to both so if you do both you sort
of take advantage of all the strengths
of both and usually whatever weaknesses
aren't either the other compensates for
that so I recommend doing both
I also recommend having more than one
teacher I started out with two teachers
at a particular Institute and the
tendency is for people to stick with
their teachers and not move on and it's
kind of weird sometimes this is it gets
weird in the NLP community where certain
teachers get a little upset if you go
and learn from other teachers or they
they get it is weird to even get a
little jealous if you're around a
teacher like that learn whatever you can
that's good from them learn learn their
stuff in other words
but don't be held back don't feel like
you're betraying them because you go
learn from another teacher this is not
their NLP journey this is your NLP
journey learn from as many teachers that
you can as long as they're they're good
teachers and they're what they're
teaching is useful and stay away from
people who are trying to get you to only
train with them stay away from them for
the most part but if you find something
useful that they're teaching go ahead
and learn from them but then get away
what if you don't have any money to
spend on NLP training I know what that's
like I've been there before the best
thing you can do at that point is just
take advantage of all the free resources
or all the really inexpensive resources
that are out there like books like this
YouTube video like YouTube channels
these are great resources to get you
started getting started is key I'll talk
a little bit more about that in a moment
so just take advantage of whatever
resources you have available to you just
just get out there and start absorbing
this information and do as much
practicing as you can I have free and
Opie training on my website and you can
use that to start practicing start
cultivating your sensory acuity and
calibration skills what if you have some
money to invest in NLP training but not
a lot if you have some money but not a
lot the best thing you can probably do
is do online training that's probably a
good a good place to start for you or
even if you've already done some NLP
training whether that's live or online
for ongoing continuing education online
training is a great way to go because
you already have some of the experience
you already have some a few reference
experiences you have some better
understanding than just coming at it
cold so online online is a great way for
continuing education and if you have
plenty of money to invest in your NLP
training do what I said about doing both
do online and do live trainings do as
many as you can and go back and forth
between the two but know that really
where you're where you're going to get
your NLP skills from and your NLP
understandings from is through the
practice so if you're going to a bunch
of trainings and you're not practicing
you're wasting your mind
even if you have a lot of money you
don't want to waste it so practice
practice practice that's where you
really get it no teacher can give you
NLP skills you have to cultivate them on
your own okay so what's the overall best
NLP strategy to master NLP first of all
get started I know so many people who
want to learn but they have this idea of
how it has to be or it has to be a lot
of training or it has to be a training
with this teacher or I don't have any
money so I'm not gonna even get started
no no get it started if you don't get
started you're never gonna get there so
get started and whatever way that is for
you so if you have no money
get started with books get started
watching videos and start practicing it
doesn't cost you anything to practice so
just get started and like I said if you
have money if you have a little bit of
money or if you have a lot of money go
with whatever you can afford go with
whatever you have time for so if it's an
online training go for that if it's a
live training go for that get started
today
you're watching this video my
instruction to you is get started today
grab that book and get an online
training go find a friend go practice
get started today and practice daily
have keep a journal and incorporate NLP
into your daily life you can always be
doing sensory acuity and calibration
while you're talking to anybody whether
they know it or not every single
interaction you have with someone you
can be using NLP you can be practicing
NLP you take a chunk at a time take one
thing you're gonna practice every single
day do that for like a week and then the
next week switch it up to something else
once you get started you have to
continue so get started and then
continue do it daily you can do 15
minutes a day everybody has 15 minutes a
day and like I said you can weave it
into your day as well you can be using
NLP with every person you interact with
two things you need to do is get started
and have ongoing practice you just take
it a piece at a time a day at a time and
you practice and that's how you do it
