Richard Bandler Quotes

Quotes from Dr Richard Bandler, creator of NLP

"The reason people have problems is that they have too much time to think."

"The best thing about the past is that it's over. The best thing about the future is that it's yet to come. The best thing about the present is that it's here now."

“The greatest personal limitation is to be found not in the things you want to do and can't, but in the things you've never considered doing”

“Physics changes, but reality stays the same”

"People always tell me with absolute certainty that they don't trust themselves"

All we are ever doing is putting things together or taking things apart…”

"We take the very best of what people do, synthesise it down, make it learnable and share it with each other - and that is what the real future of what NLP will be and its gonna stay that way!”

“If your world isn't moving a hundred times faster than your client, then you're not going to see the other person's patterns. You won't have the time to observe them or replay their behaviour to detect their patterns.”

“The evolution isn't over. We are the experience that the universe is having.

“Disappointment requires adequate planning”

“Brains aren't designed to get result; they go in directions. If you know how the brain works you can set your own directions. If you don't, then someone else will.”

"In High School I flunked English Language and Public Speaking. NLP was my revenge!"

"NLP is an attitude and a methodology, not the trail of techniques it leaves behind"

"Ho hum, more pleasure!"

If you say to yourself "It's difficult to get up in the morning", "It's hard to cease smoking", then you are already using hypnotic suggestions on yourself...

You know what ? Certain people think they will fell good if certain things happen... The trick is : you have to feel good for no reason...
But I'm sure of something, if you make you feel bad, you'll make bad decisions.
Remember, it's your own body, your own brain. You're not a victim of the universe, you are the universe.
If you can't enjoy what you have, you can't enjoy more of it.

Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

I don't have to be an expert to use something. All I have to do is to use it.
- I'm depressed- How do you know that ?- I'm sorry ?- You don't have to be sorry. How do you know, maybe are you happy !- I don't think so.- Are you sure ?- Yeah- Are you sure enough to be unsure ?- As a matter of fact of fact, I'm am.- Good, so you are certain you have doubt

Peoples tell me with absolute certainty they don't trust themselves. Or they tell me that they decided absolutely that they can't make good decision.
You know what, it's impossible for anyone to tell you anything that's a generalisation about themselves that won't destroy itself including that one...

I have news for you, God made me forgive you but I'm not going to. To me I don't want to be forgiven, I want to do better. See, one people tell me "I'm really sorry". I go "Fuck you", just do better. Don't tell me so I have to make you feel better.

I made the door in my house left-handed, because I'm left handed. When people come in, they push the door the wrong way, and hit themselves on the door. And you know what ? People keep harder and harder to do it ! When something doesn't work, try the same thing harder !

I work with kids taht are lysdexic

You can't change people by removing something. You must create a void and then fill it...

It's not impossible; it's the way I make that don't make it happen.

Don't ever to busy to be alive...

Memories are like holograms : you recreate in your head the whole image of something which isn't there.
Against what do they check your vision ? Against the most-non natural thing : a letter chart. You don't find them in nature. You don't go in the forest and see an 'E'.

When you are altering submodalities, you are already in some time distortion, the way you organize time a certain times versus others allows you to change those submodalities.

If you want to test the submodality shift between something you're sure, and something you're not, choose this fact : 'Doing in waking time every trance phenomenon I can do in trance'.

You are born with only two fear : fear of falling and fear of loud noise. All the rest is learned. And it's a lot of work!

How much pleasure can you stand?

"- I'm depressed..."
If you ask about what, and he answers "I don't know !", you're stuck. Ask "How do you know ?". Always ask about the biggest chunk.
If you can't get all that stuff you learned back to the store and get a refund, then you haven't integrated it !

So, hypnosis doesn't exists... And the way, what's your name, I don't remember. And what was so important for you not to forget. NOW !

Frank Farrelly on NLPmp3

I am delighted to have access to the only interviews with Frank Farrelly in recent years and to host many of these on http://www.nlpmp3.com/. Frank is of course not an NLPer, but was an influence on Bandler and Grinder. Interestingly I aksed both of them about each other and both of these can be heard on the site. I first met Frank in 2004 and we became frm friends and as well as maintaining regular phone contact he has stayed with me in the UK each time he runs events here.

I set up The Association for Provocative Therapy (http://www.associationforprovocativetherapy.com/) to promote Frank's work, mindful that its very easy for people to think of PT only in a confrontational context! Frank is in the UK Nov 1/2 in Leeds for what promises to be another excellent and of course unpredictable event

Pivot Grammer and Surround Sound Hypnosis

Pivot grammar used on “This Healing Space” Hypnosis CD by Nick Kemp

Pivot grammar has been defined as “a loose grammar governing two word utterances by children”

I first came across pivot grammar a number of years ago and immediately had the idea of using this language in the form of “a loop” on the Healing within Hypnosis CD. There is of course another induction “inside the loop” which means that most people will not be able to track the pivot aspect. I have therefore detailed the pivot aspect below for those interested in this type of word play. This language pattern was used extensively on the “This Healing Space” track by myself (Nick Kemp) to great effect. I also released this track as a separate DTS surround sound CD, which is the first surround sound hypnosis product released commercially!
You may notice that there are times when the pivot words connect in other ways to produce some interesting effects. Here is the induction transcript

Imitation, the sincerest form of flattery?

NLPmp3.com launched in 2005 and is still the original and only NLPmp3 download site that provides information from a variety of schools of NLP, rather than a business trying to sell courses! Since then there have been a number of attempts to copy the format and even an attempt to sell interviews on CD, with information that is mainly already found on the FREE interviews on www.nlpmp3.com. In other instances NLP interviews are endlessley recycled across many sites, so listeners are often disappointed to hear that the "new interview" is really just the same one they heard in days gone by!

NLPmp3 provides more than just the world's best NLP trainers. We also provide interviews with specialists from the world of Hypnosis and Provocative Therapy, so you continue to have access to the world's best communicatiors, all absolutely FREE.

3 new mp3s added!

We just added 3 new free mp3 downloads to www.nlpmp3.com. These are two interviews with members of D.I.P (The German institute of Provocative Therapy) and a free instrumental track for hypnosis by Nick Kemp and Doug O Brien
