Dr. Crew's NLP Lessons #9

WELL-FORMED OUTCOMES

In NLP, we define what it is we wish to achieve. We need to clearly identify it. Once we do, we focus on a positive outcome and not the negative possibilities.

We use sensory-based language to envision and describe these goals and envision these goals with all 5 senses. Concentrate only on what you CAN impact. This must never be something outside of ourselves such as trying to control another person's behavior or feelings. We need to be aware of what is clearly beyond our control and never waste time and energy trying to achieve that.

Important questions are: How do I control the outcome? How can I truly impact this goal? And lastly, How will I be accountable to myself for following a plan to achieve the goal?
