Fantastic extended quote! And...an amazing ability to speak in AD for a whole conversation. I've never had one student able to talk in labelling language for ten minutes. The guy is a genius!
Wow @ how sentient he is. 2:54 He stops himself mid-sentence, upon realizing he was speaking of Analyzing with his hand gesturing on the right side of his brain, and instead gestured on the left side. Are you kidding? THIS is the difference between someone who truly understands NLP, (obviously, it's Grinder,) and the rest of the masses who "teach" it. That is the level of understanding he's speaking of here. This level of detail in communication is at the core of what NLP was intended to teach.
Good point, and also makes you wonder if it were really something that he realized or if that gesture had another intended purpose. Like you say, this is someone who truly gets it. And i completely don't know, just wondering myself
Did Grinder study Rand. Rand had a verson of modeling and also of how to integrate and learning to integrate correct functions of thinking by studying epistemology in which she created Psyco-Epistemology which deals with integrating and deleting limiting beliefs and reasoning. Grinder was in college back in the 60's so he had to have known about her. Just wondering if you know if he studied her at all.
For NLP to be effective, does it need to be on person's mother tongue? for example if i speak English and the person is Italian (but understands English) would the patterns have the same effect?
Did Grinder study Rand at all. I see a huge influence in similarity just not in the semantics and discription within NLP with the senses or Modalties and integration and deletion through epistemology which I know Grinder studied. He was in college in his 60's so he must have heard of her? I have never heard Bandler or Grinder say anything about her.
Words are frozen histories, so it's tricky to figure out a way to explain discoveries in meaning-making, habits & thinking. I've run into the same issue writing on Alexander Technique. NLP solutions were often answered by inventing unnecessary words & using words in new ways. I used to "translate" for an attendee of their old NLP workshops - he was brilliant at picking up new languages. You may have to listen again to understand what is being said because of this gratuitous word-inventing.
a reall shame these guys split up they should get back together who knows what theyd think of next( dudes scrw money) the legacy you could leave in history is worth moere than any sum of money so pair up again
