NLP In Layman’s Terms
Neuro-Linguistic Programming, or NLP, is the integration of three important concepts in our lives. It is the combination of our neuro (brain) processes, our linguistic inputs of experience, and the programming that occurs between the two. As a science, it was developed in the early 1970s by John Grinder and Richard Bandler. By studying therapy sessions of some psychologists, they were able to determine certain patterns of thinking that helped in a patient’s success. They then theorized that anyone could be taught these behaviors. Thus, NLP was born.

Positive Affirmations for 2012
At the beginning of a new year, it is a very common tradition to make resolutions about how you would like to improve yourself. Using positive affirmations, you can accomplish any resolution that you would like to make. By definition, resolutions made at the beginning of the year are things that you want to do to make your life better, or to change. Commonly, these resolutions last for maybe a week. The reason for this is that people, in general, do not truly believe that they can change these things.

There is much talk and discussion of remapping of the brain through the use of NLP. But what exactly does this mean? Remapping the brain is a way to change the pathways that your thoughts take in order to control your reactions to a given situation. Your brain is a complex system of pathways that are facilitated by electrical impulses sent between neurons. It has taken scientists and therapists many years to figure out exactly how the brain works and how these pathways affect us.

He changed his goal to earn this distinction in an entirely different sport, just to prove that he could. The freshman decide that he was going to try earning it in a sport he had never tried before: wrestling.

Success is an inside job
Your self-esteem is critical to your success. It can be hard to identify what exactly healthy self-esteem is. The signs of an unhealthy self-esteem are usually obvious. Someone who cuts themselves down a lot and is always afraid to make big decisions or use their talents doesn't have healthy self-esteem. Arrogance and boasting are also signs of a poor self-esteem, even though the person comes across as supremely self-confident. I think we all know our fair share of braggarts.

The Language of Subliminal Messages
One of the questions I get asked the most is if English is not my first language, will English subliminal messages work for me? This is an interesting, and actually very astute question. I know that if I was to get subliminal messages in, say, Swahili, they probably wouldn’t help me, since I wouldn’t be able to say a single word in that language. So is English any different for someone else? The short answer is no, there is no difference. However, that is if the person asking does not know English at all. The answer changes drastically if the asker knows any English.

The Language of the Law of Attraction
The law of attraction is the universal belief that “like attracts like”. In general terms, this is a relatively easy concept to grasp.

Of course, the inverse to that is true too; negative thinking will bring negative things to you. The trick to get the law of attraction to work though is to ensure that you are using the correct language to define what you are trying to attract.

Tips to Get the Most Out of Subliminal Videos
The concept of subliminal videos has been around for a while now. Most people understand the basic principal of how they work. An image or message is flashed on the screen too quickly for your conscious mind to register having seen it. The human subconscious, however, sees and hears everything that goes on around it. It will then take what it knows and file it away in memory until such a time as it becomes necessary to recall it. Using subliminal videos effectively requires a bit more explanation, however.

Affirmations for Success
What is success? Success is the achievement of a desired goal. Unfortunately, that definition is quite lacking. If you decide that you want to eat dinner at 5 o’clock, and you do, does that make you a success? Most people would say that no, that doesn’t make you a success.

From my experience, the Higher Self is the intelligence and wisdom aspect of our own self. Ironically, the Higher Self is impersonal and does not have a 'sense of self' like the way our personality is.

The Power of Forgiveness
While we always have the choice to look to the positive, we have to acknowledge that life is not always a bed of roses.
