Hypnosis and NLP Formula For Success
Hypnosis & NLP Formula For Success by Alan B. Densky, CH
Have you ever tried to do away with an unconstructive behavior, only to be unsuccessful? There is list of common problem behaviors that people often try to alter or get rid of using hypnosis. Possibly the most common are: Overeating and weight loss; stop smoking; quit chewing tobacco; stop nail biting; increasing self-confidence; overcoming insomnia and sleeping better; improving memory; and managing stress.
WHAT THE MIND CAUSES, THE MIND CAN CURE:
The motivation for our behaviors starts in our thoughts. When you stop and think about it, all of these negative behaviors are the result of negative thinking. In other words, you think and motivate yourself into all of these behaviors. Or at least you think yourself into feeling stressed out, and that can trigger these behaviors. And because you think and motivate yourself into these behaviors, you can think and motivate yourself out of them as well. But in order to effectively think and motivate yourself out of these behaviors, you will need to know the "Motivation Formula For Success."
DESIRE:
You're perhaps reading this piece because you want the motivation to change something about yourself. And that is fitting because the first ingredient in the Motivation Formula For Your Success is that you must want or desire to change. If you have read this far, at least a little part of you wants a change.
BELIEF IS REQUIRED FOR MOTIVATION:
Before anyone can eliminate an unhelpful behavior, that person must be motivated to do so. Merely wanting a behavior to change is insufficient.
Our motivation comes from the things that we believe. If we believe that something very important to us will get better or "become enhanced" if we make a change in our behavior, we will become motivated. Conversely, if we believe that something very important to us will be in jeopardy if we don't make a change in our behavior, we will also experience motivation to make a change.
Some straightforward examples of these motivational beliefs could be:
If I take some weight off, then I'll be able to find a lover.
If I quit smoking, then I won't have to worry about cancer.
If I can improve my study habits, then I can graduate from college.
TECHNOLOGIES THAT CAN CREATE THE BELIEFS THAT LEAD TO MOTIVATION:
Neuro-Linguistic Programming - which is commonly known as NLP, offers strategies that are able to instantly generate the element of belief. You can find out more concerning this by reading the articles "How To Get Motivated To Exercise Using Hypnosis And NLP" and "Motivation Theory - How To Quit Smoking Using NLP And Hypnosis For Motivation." These articles are both available in my free hypnosis research library.
DECISION:
The dictionary defines the word "Decision" as making up one's mind / a verdict or judgment. When you believe an idea that provides you with a powerful feeling of motivation to make a change, you will feel a compulsion to make a decision to get rid of a negative behavior. Decision is the key that unlocks the door to compelling action.
ACTION:
The dictionary definition of the word "Action" is an act or deed / to do or perform. When you take action it means that rather than just thinking about making personal changes, you will actually take steps to bring about your desired changes.
SELF-TALK:
One of the reasons that individuals fail to change or eliminate a negative behavior is because of what they say to themselves. Self-talk is vital because very often it is part of what caused the negative behavior to begin with.
I'd like you to consider this for a moment: Let us say that you want to kick a cigarette addiction. Probably the first thing that you are likely to say or think to yourself is: "I'm not going to smoke cigarettes anymore."
It's common for people to tell themselves what they aren't going to do. Unfortunately, when we tell ourselves what we are not going to do, we are actually programming ourselves to do it!
SELF-TALK EXERCISE:
Say the following to yourself: I can't see blue. I can't see polka dots . . . . . . .
I'll bet your mind showed you the color blue, and then it showed you polka dots. That's because when we tell ourselves what we don't want to do, or what we won't do, in order to make sense of it our mind must show us doing what it is that we would like to stop doing. And when we picture ourselves participating in a behavior, our mind compels us to generate that behavior.
SUMMARY:
In order to get rid of a negative behavior, we must first want or DESIRE to eliminate it. BELIEF is the component that leads us to MOTIVATION. MOTIVATION is the drive that pushes us to DECISION. DECISION is the means to ACTION. NLP is a technology that we can use to facilitate beliefs, motivation, decisions, and actions.
When we tell ourselves what we are not going to do, we make a mental picture of ourselves in the behavior that we want to alter. And that mental movie gives us a powerful urge to generate the unwanted behavior. So if we want to eliminate a negative behavior, instead of telling ourselves what we won't do, we must always tell ourselves what we will do.
To stop smoking say: "I can live without them."
To abort cravings for high calorie foods or to stop chewing smokeless chewing tobacco say: "I can live without it."
To eliminate stress say: "I'm relaxed and calm, both mentally and physically."
To fall asleep quickly and overcome insomnia say: "I fall asleep quickly, and sleep soundly throughout the night."
