what do you do when you want to do an NLP training where do you start what do
you look for
look for me that's what you should do you should always look for me
what if you can find me look harder
seriously know what do you do when you can attend one of my trainings there are
plenty of good NLP trainer is out there
the closest one to you are the cheapest one is likely not the best one to go to
tho first thing i would suggest if you want to learn NLP and say money is short
and maybe you can't travel somewhere to learn it I would suggest starting a
practice group you can use craigslist meetup facebook i would definitely start
a facebook page and a meetup page craigslist depending on where you live
may or may not work very well get a book find people to practice with and start
working on it that way and practicing go step-by-step through the book make sure
it's a beginner's book that's what i did i started to practice group and went
through a book I found people to practice with and that's how i got
started you might be thinking okay well sure you've had a lot of training you've
done a lot of practice
you're good at this stuff i'm not going to this stuff i can start a practice
group that's bullshit because i started practice group before had any formal
training
the reason I started practice group is I was trying to learn from books and when
I couldn't learn just by reading it which you're not going to get NLP just
by reading and I went out and found people who would practice with me and I
didn't even some level of proficiency I guess so that whenever I did start doing
my training I understood the concepts right away they weren't foreign to me
and I had some experience practicing with other people so it definitely
helped and i believe i got a lot more out of my first training as a result of
having a practice now again it really helps to have someone who
trainer teach it to you can teach you the concepts be very clear about it who
can demonstrate the processes and then supervise your practice as you
demonstrate your not going to get that if you're starting your own practice
group and there's nobody in the practice group who has a lot of training that's
the show that's the downside to it but at least you could get you started
you run into some of the similar problems when you do
NLP training that's online sure you might go to get to see the master do it
you might get to see them demonstrated lecture it they're not going to
supervise you as you do the practice and when you have questions so that's the
downside to the online stuff i'm gonna give you now is three tips that you can
take with you when it comes to getting started on your NLP journey if you're
ready to start your formal training and then after that i'll talk a little bit
about if you've already started your training
are you already a pretty good NLP and you've done plenty of training first tip
is don't dabble what i mean by that is course you need to dabble a little bit
and help aid to find out if it's worth it to you if you feel like you can
believe in NLP and that is going to help you available to that point once you get
to that point you need to commit to the training you need to commit to getting
really good at NLP if you double your results are going to be rather mediocre
it's just like anything else you dabble in martial arts you're gonna get someone
good if you dabble in weightlifting you might get a little get a little bit of
strength but if it's sporadic and there's no consistency it's not going to
really help you i think a lot of people do dabble with NLP and that's why you
hear people come back and say well it doesn't work it's like yeah what if you
dabble and you never really developed the skills and you never really
understand the processes work and why they work your results are always going
to be mixed they're not going to be predictable and that's when you have
people saying oh it doesn't work commit to a hundred percent put into practice
making a daily thing even if it's 15 or 20 minutes a day
it's a lot better than an hour here an hour there so commit to it under percent
and I goes with anything I mean is you're not going to get good at anything
or grated anything for sure if you just dabble in it
find a good teacher that's the second time they don't have to be the best
teacher in the world but look for a teacher who
who tells you their teachers are find out who their teachers are and check
them out
also really helps if their teachers have endorsed them are if renowned teachers
well-established teachers have endorsed or had given some sort of testimonial
for that teacher that's kind of what I look for it's not always a foolproof way
to go about it and that bad teachers who actually are pretty well-known and hope
you have met some bad teachers and that so you never can be a hundred percent
but check your teachers out don't just pick up somebody who has like one
practitioner training and one master practitioner training or if they only
have one teacher they need a good trainer is going to have multiple
teachers have attended multiple practitioner multiple master
practitioner and hopefully quite a bit of advanced training a bad teacher can
mess with your head waste a lot of your money stereo the wrong direction and to
me really bad teachers even the ones who are highly skilled they might be highly
skilled but they might be bad teachers and a bad teacher to me as someone who's
not
we might even be holding you back from getting good at help and i'll be there
they're making you feel like you know it when you really don't and they're
constantly selling you the next program that if you just do this program if you
just do their next program if you just give them a few thousand dollars more
then you hit that point where you can then finally using healthy to create the
life you desire and convince anybody to do anything and and hit the the sales
goals you want to hit and have outrageous amounts of money and
popularity be careful that did the constant upsell its normal business to
upsell people on things but if they're give you the sense that they're holding
you back then definitely move on to a different teacher and the third and
final tip if you're looking into starting NLP training i would not take a
training that is any less than 18 days along that might seem kind of long and
they now have practitioner certification training that are done in seven days or
as few as three days and I just think that's really absurd
there's no way you can really good at this stuff in such a short amount of
time
less than 18 days yeah my first practitioner training was I believe 22
23 days long and you just can't get the stuff down
it's a it that tells me that there's not a whole lot of supervised practice and
that training if it's less than 18 days
NLP trainings used to be 30 days long whenever NLP first started now the the
technology has grown considerably over the past 40 years 40 plus years and yet
the trainings have shrunk so what does that mean well that means that like any
other entrepreneurs NLP trainers want to make a lot of money they want to work
the least amount and make the most amount of money as a result of that is
there there there just kind of speeding through it they're not really taking the
time to make sure the students really learn it and as a result the your
they're turning out practitioners who aren't very skilled and the NLP field as
a whole has suffered quite a bit over the past 20 years probably from this
practice so it's kind of the business model that is hurting it as well so
there are a few fewer and fewer practitioner trainings that are being
taught for like more than 10 days they do exist and i would recommend that you
you look for the ones that are longer with a good teacher
that's backing so that's where to start in your NLP journey so where does it end
well it doesn't end i would recommend that it never ends for you i recommend
that if you're have taken a lot of trainings and you don't feel skilled and
maybe need to go back and repeat some of those trainings and work on those skills
really practice those skills if you have plenty of training and you have putting
skills on your belt
Italy is a lot like Zen Zen monks don't reach a point where they stop meditating
or they stopped practicing in it just goes deeper and deeper for them
you don't need to learn new processes you don't need to create new processes
to become better at LP the more you practice the deeper you can go with NLP
techniques and skills just keep going down that that path for a lot of us we
become teachers because you learn an NLP from a different perspective
in a different think that might be your path might not be your path i would say
if you don't know give it a try and see also coaching coaching as a way to
advance your NLP skills I would go back and do more training I repeat but basic
level training all the time just to get a sense to put on that beginner's mind
that student mindset and i'm always a student I maybe I'm a teacher as well
but I'm always a student because there's always more to learn the the best NOP
teacher is yourself you've been doing and i'll be your whole life
nobody has modeled around the human experience
so you've been experiencing life ever since you were born so technically
you've been doing it
you've been doing an LP since you were born get in touch with that and use that
to help you you go to one of more than one teacher the worst thing i see is
students sticking with one teacher teaching some of these NLP teachers are
very charismatic and are very good at convincing you that they have a healthy
right so there's no there's no reason to go to any other teacher and that's just
bullshit doesn't matter how good your teacher is and every day even if every
other teachers not as good as your teacher those other teachers can provide
an LP perspective that you don't have yet and when you get an NLP from multiple
perspectives it just adds dimension to your understanding of NLP into your
practice so when you should be going to multiple teachers in any teacher who
tells you you shouldn't are they tried to tell you that you don't need to go to
another teacher
don't listen to them go to another teacher getting healthy from multiple
perspectives. Check out our website NLP-gym.com a lot of you have started to ask
