Why do some people claim that Does NLP not work for you? How does it work for others? What do people for whom NLP doesn’t work have in common?
just one factor
NLP doesn’t work because Many people use NLP to attack just one factor in the system that is causing something in their lives to go wrong. We are systems. We live in systems. And we create belief systems, strategies, thoughts, actions and everything is connected. If you use NLP to address only one element of a system and leave all other elements intact, it’s no wonder NLP doesn’t work. Many NLP techniques even include a step that checks the ecology of a new solution or strategy. Many people do not use this ecological control. And not using it makes NLP not work.
NLP doesn’t work if people use it to attack only one element of a system. This is like losing weight doesn’t work if a person only exercises, but doesn’t eat the right things in the right amounts at the right times and doesn’t get enough sleep. Fortunately, NLP won’t do any harm, while exercise could aggravate the joints in such a case. But the person’s generalization that NLP doesn’t work willpower harm. It will hurt all the diligent practitioners of NLP who make NLP work in millions of lives. And it will do even more damage to the person who generalizes, because a generalization is impoverished by the nature of being a generalization.
People take the claim that NLP doesn’t work at face value
Saying that NLP doesn’t work is Also a generalization. And generalizations are easy for listeners to understand. When a listener hears someone say that NLP doesn’t work, the listener may fixate in their mind that NLP doesn’t work, because the listener is most likely not looking below the surface of the speaker’s statement. And also because word of mouth can be very influential. The listener only hears the tip of the iceberg of the speaker’s experience. If the listener doesn’t pierce the iceberg, they will never know what led the speaker to say that NLP doesn’t work. In today’s society everything becomes more and more superficial, so I doubt that many listeners pierce the speaker’s iceberg. They will just be swayed by word of mouth that NLP doesn’t work and they will go on living. What a pity!
If you believe it, you will achieve it
NLP doesn’t work also because a person can believe NLP doesn’t work. You may have tried or heard that NLP doesn’t work. Therefore, you may have formed the belief that NLP does not work. Even if you show that person that NLP works, they will continue to believe, and spread the word, that NLP doesn’t work unless they change their belief that NLP could work or even worked for them. Beliefs are again systems, so there’s a good chance you’ll get the idea. If not, reread the first paragraph. That should give you an idea.
People claim that NLP doesn’t work because they don’t give enough time to change.
If you give yourself 2 weeks and expect to lose 10 cm, I doubt you will. Time matters too. if you give yourself 2 months and strictly adhere to all other slimming factors, the chance of you being 10 cm thinner is much higher. What I mean is that time matters. yes, NLP can create many changes overnight – Yeah we want it enough and apply it immediately. But then NLP does it works, right? 🙂 But people who say NLP doesn’t work are more often referring to changes that take more time than overnight. But exactly these people are too impatient to give themselves, and NLP, time to work. This article may also interest you. It is directly related to what I said in this paragraph.
If NLP hasn’t worked for you So far and after reading this you feel the pull to give it another chance, let’s talk.
