Damon here from NLP Gym. NLP techniques eliciting your timeline if you haven't
already please click subscribe to this YouTube channel so you can get these
videos on a regular basis so time and timeline
let's make a distinction first before i get into this what clock time is and
what your sense of time is clock time is there's 60 seconds in a minute there's
60 minutes in an hour
there's 24 hours in a day on and on and on
that's not the kind of time that i'm talking about that sort of time is an
objective measurement of time and as long as we all agree on 60 seconds
equaling a minute and 60 minutes equaling an hour we're all in agreement
with that its objective we're talking about subjective time we're talking
about your sense of time and we all have our own individual sense of time and if
you don't believe this thing about when there is a scheduled event or a meeting
or something like that say the meeting is at five o'clock
some people will show up early some people will show up on time and some
people show up late maybe some people won't show up at all because we all have
a different sense of time and it will be discovered this amazing concept of how
we know what our sense of time is and this is what NLP is all about it's all
about modeling that subjective reality how are we creating our relax reality
and our sense of time is a huge part of our reality so there's two distinct
types of timelines and one of them would be called end time and that is when I
perceive time being through me like it comes through and this is called end
time so the future is out here in the past is behind me and it could be a
variation that it could be slanted this way that we slide it that way
on in rare cases some people actually have their pass in front of them in
their future behind them as you might imagine this can create a lot of
problems so if you're one of those people and through this process you
discover that your timeline is actually flipped i would recommend working on
getting your timeline back to this way where the futures in front of you and
the past is behind you
some of us are through talk and that means that on one side of us say this
side would be the future and on the other side of us would be the past now
it doesn't really matter which side is which for me and for most people the
future is on this side the past is on this side kinda makes sense when you
think about eye accessing cues but I look up to my right I construct so that's the
future i have experienced the future yet so I kind of constructed when I think
about it I have to imagine it and in this way we look at left with our eyes
and look up into the left this is visual remembered so in that sense the past is
something that is remembered so we don't have to imagine it's already happened
and then your present is sort of right here in front of you so you actually
seen your timeline in front of people who are through time like me tend to be
on time you can kind of see your timeline in front of you and you kind of
know where things are people who are in time when our time line goes through
them a lot of times they are they tend to be the people who are late less the
time and it's funny because I ask people who are in time
what is your sense of time if they're late are there on time and often their
responses well when I'm here I'm one time when I'm here I'm here and they
could do this is because they can't see their past behind them unless they take
a look and their futures in front of them they're just not noticing
timeliness as much as a through time person is now there are exceptions that
doesn't mean that if you're through time you're always going to be on time if
you're in time that you're always late that's not necessarily true
so find out which you are and how there's an easy way to do that i'd like
to take a simple activity like
in your teeth most people brush your teeth
most people do it twice a day if not more hopefully you do think about the
last time you brush your teeth so if it was this morning
think about where imagine you brushing your teeth this morning picture that now
when I do that I kind of see it slightly to the left and a little bit right here
and that's what that pictures I see myself brushing my teeth now that
doesn't mean that yours will be there look for that picture
just imagine it and then in your space your personal space where do you see
that picture is it over here and over here is it behind you or you have a
sense of it being like right here right now then go out to one week ago
imagine brushing your teeth one week ago now for me that goes more over here for
you that might go this way and free for other people it might go behind you and
if I think about brushing my teeth one month ago
it goes a little more over here again this doesn't mean this is the right way
discover your way now the more I keep imagining brushing my teeth into the
past it goes further and further out to my left and it actually starts to come
down a little bit so my past timeline kind of does this now think about
brushing your teeth in the future now when I think about that I see it right
here and if I think about it like one day or a week into the future it's about
right here and the further I go the tendency is that my timeline sort of
goes up into the future if you want for your end time your should go further
your picture should be further and further out in front of you and it can
be this way or that way
three-time just means your timeline comes through you doesn't necessarily
mean it's a straight line so listen your timeline
I like brushing your teeth because most people do it and find out where your
timeline now if you're through time person which means your timeline comes
through you like this then play around with turning your timeline for the
future is in front of you in the past is behind you and for you anytime people
trying through time timeline
and really take a moment to let that settle in it can be a little
disorienting at first it can maybe feel not so right you might feel psychology
coming up like some resistance if that happens just get in touch with that part
of you that's resisting and just assured that you're only doing this for
experimental purposes and anything to change you can change right back
experience what it's like we're going to be the opposite timeline that you're
used to using and does it benefit you in any way now there's so many uses for
this this is extremely powerful
I don't have time in this video to go into it all perhaps on future videos i
will what you can do for this though in general is you can take the past whether
it's here or here or even here and you can float above it and drop in and heal
old wounds by bringing in resources you didn't have when maybe certain things
happened in your past that were painful for the future you can set goals for
their futures here here or even here you can set goals make a compelling image of
you achieving that goal and then dropping that image into your future
timeline
this is very powerful and so that you sort of it's sort of like you have a
laser going to accomplishing that goal especially if that picture is compelling
make sure it's compelling and sort of will guide you into moving in that
direction
it's extremely powerful that's two things that you can use like I said
there are many many uses for this try those out and see how they work for you
make sure that you don't leave yourself in the past you don't leave yourself in
the future make sure you come back to the present and future pictures always
make sure they're disassociated so that you don't give yourself a sense of
having accomplished something that you actually haven't
and if you're going into the past just make sure you come back to the present
so you don't get yourself caught in a time warp
so that is listening your timeline again many uses for that and maybe in future
videos I'll go into that just try that out and have some fun with it
