Have you got what it takes?
When I was 22 I broke my leg. The break was serious and I was supposed to be out of action for 6 months. At that time I was enjoying life to the full but in terms of a career I was going nowhere fast. Whilst lying on my back in hospital I began to reflect on what I wanted from life, many things stood out for me, one being that I wanted a new career, something I enjoyed and that created a good income.

The notion of mastery is an interesting one. I took my first Master Practitioner course as student 16 years ago, I have since taught and coached thousands of people in NLP, and the current course I am teaching is my 49th Practitioner course. So when did I gain mastery, after my master practitioner course 16 years ago or now? The answer is neither, I am still developing.

Some reflections on what happens to the dream when life challenges us
The subject of this month’s Sushi evening is ‘living the dream’. When I first thought of the topic for the evening, I was thinking how NLP epitomises the notion of living the dream. After all, with NLP all you have to do is create an outcome, fully represent that outcome in your mind, operate from a state of excellence in relation to what you want and the dream is yours. What could be easier? The various aspects of life you equate with happiness such as health, good relationships, personal development and so on are all within your grasp using NLP processes. Or so the NLP guru might tell you.

If you attend my courses you will be familiar with one of my sayings ‘I have the best job in the world’. In fact I love what I do so much, I don’t consider it work. I run the best NLP Company in the business, I teach superb learners how to do NLP, and coach people to get the best from their lives. It’s all highly fulfilling and the money side is superb. This blog is not about me, it’s about YOU and the other future NLP coaches and trainers who want to make a contribution to other peoples’ lives while creating wealth for themselves.

Tomorrow (Wednesday 27th April) I will be speaking at the YES Group in London on the subject of Emotional Intelligence. I am looking forward to going back to the YES group, I used to attend the group in 1993 after I attended Tony Robbins’ first ever UK event. Back then, there used to about 10-15 regulars, the group has been through many changes since, I have not spoken there since 2003, so it will be really fun.

Last week I was talking to John Grinder about his forthcoming UK visit. A highlight of our discussion was how New Code NLP is continually increasing in popularity. Given the level of interest we thought it would be a good idea to offer the NLP community another opportunity to experience a one day New Code NLP seminar at a fabulously accessible price.

How easy is it to start a Coaching NLP Practice? This is a question I am frequently asked. Sometimes it shows up in slightly different words like ‘how easy is it make money with NLP’?. The answer to both questions is the same, ‘You can start an NLP Coaching Practice and make a very healthy six figure income - if you are prepared to put in some hard work. It also requires some innovation to get your name out there and, as you build your practice, it takes some good business management skills to take care of the money side and grow the practice.

You may remember back in October that I ran a webinar on NLP for learning and people who learn differently. It was such a success that many people who missed it wanted another opportunity to see it. Therefore I am pleased to announce that I will be running the webinar again on Thursday the 16th December at 8:00pm - 9:00pm.
Once again the purpose of the webinar is to raise awareness and funds for the National Autistic Society.
It is often said that people who are diagnosed with conditions such as Aspergers Syndrome, Austism, Dyslexia and ADHD have learning difficulties. I believe it is more accurate to say that some people learn differently and have learning differences.
