What
are the presuppositions of NLP?
What is NLP?
NLP (NeuroLinguistic Programming)
is a constantly evolving set of models, presuppositions, patterns, techniques,
and observation-based theories resulting from the study of the structure
of subjective experience, behavior and communication. Beyond understanding,
NLP seeks to enable remedial and generative change quickly and ecologically.
Does
NLP really work? Has it been scientifically validated?
It's difficult to prove that
something doesn't work or doesn't exist. (e.g. Smoking has not yet been
"scientifically proved" to cause cancer.) There is massive anecdotal evidence
that NLP works. Few studies have been done on particular aspects of NLP
with mixed results.
Isn't
NLP really just hypnosis?
No. NLP is not *just* hypnosis.
Milton Erickson was a strong influence on NLP's founders, but NLP includes
aspects of many other disciplines as well.
Can I use
NLP on myself?
Yes. Many people use NLP as
a form of self development.
What
are the presuppositions of NLP?
Here
are some of them:
No one is
wrong or broken. People work perfectly to accomplish what they are
currently
accomplishing.
People already
have all the resources they need.
Behind every
behavior is a positive intention.
Every behavior
is useful in some context.
The meaning
of a communication is the response you get.
If you aren't
getting the response you want, do *something* different.
There is
no such thing as failure. There is only feedback.
In any system,
the element with the most flexibility exerts the most influence.
The map
is not the territory.
If someone
can do something, anyone can learn it.
