Hello everyone,
I am new to this forum and just wanted to introduce myself and say Hello. I have a story about how I became interested in NLP ( I am trying to keep it short and to the point) please read and tell me what you think? I am 32 and just started to dabb in self help books by reading a Book "Think and grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill. I alway's thought these books were bullcrap until I read this book. (it has really helped me) My wife has been reading books also, she went to a LandMark forum last month she really enjoyed it. Anway's my wife stumbled on NLP by her boss who gave her a book and audio tapes to read by Matthew Ferry. He told her to read and listen to the tapes before the next LandMark class she will attend. We were on our way to meet some new Neighbors from Canada for dinner and put in Matthew Ferry's Audio Tape to listen to. He mentioned in his audio tapes how to use NLP to get more sales, and better yourself. I thought to myself I really want to learn how to do this, it really struck my interest and I was going to go home and do research on what he mentioned in his audio tapes how to use NLP to get more sales and better yourself, I really got into this and could not wait to get home. We arrived at dinner met our guest and sat down, and started talking. We were talking when the subject came up about sales, my wife asked one of our new friends if he knew anything about NLP. Well I could not belive what I heard next, he said he was a NLP trainer and practioner, he taught students all about NLP ect. He started to explaine about it and gave us examples about it ect. So I asked him what is the best way to learn about NLP, he said start with books by Richard Bandler, and explore the internet, find your own path is what he said. (I would have him teach me but he lives in Canada just owns the house next door to visit for Golf and vacation) So I am like this must be faith, or a sign that this is what I need to learn to better myself and my business skills. I have been searching the internet on how to learn NLP, but find it very confusing. From what I have read it started out by John Grinder and has gone off into all kinds of different directions. What I want to know is what is the best way to learn about it? I love to read, and watch DVD, listen to Audio tapes, this is how I want to start can you give me a starting point? I want to help myself in my speaking ability, in business and self help ( I am a quite person and want to be able to speak to people without fear) and healing the body. I just need a starting point on how to start learing NLP it is such a broad subject. So are books by Richard Bandler a good starting point? Are there any other great Web sites also? Please Help.... I really have a burning desire to learn all I can on this subject.
