NLP - neuro linguistic programming

The science on how to reprogram your thoughts and behaviours...

NLP - presuppositions:

• The map is not the territory
  
• Experience has a structure
• If one person can do something, anyone can learn to do it
• The mind and body are parts of the same system
• People already have all the resources they need
• You cannot NOT communicate
• The meaning of your communication is the response you get
• Underlying every behavior is a positive intention
• People are always making the best choice(s) available to them
• If what you are doing isn't working, do something else
