Basic NLP Presuppositions

Presuppose you believe the following 8 ideas are true!

All distinctions use our senses
There is a distinct sense that this is plainly obvious. How else indeed, you do experience reality with your senses of sight, sound, touch / feel, smell and taste. It only makes sense.

Experience is not reality.
Reality is the physical environment which you are subjected to every moment of everyday. You interpret whatever of it has meaning for you to create your experience. Interpreting reality in a different way changes your experience of it.

Changing experience has more value than changing reality
If thought is the cause of what we experience now, then what we think now will be the cause of what we experience in the future. Having choices about how to think about reality now, changes your experience of it.

The meaning of your communication = results you get.
Your intended communication is not always what is perceived. You can change your communication until your desired results are obtained. What you intend to communicate, or what you actually communicate, which is more important?

Results are feedback not "failure". Feedback sets direction.
Feedback = food for thought. Failure produces results that allow you to improve. Results are the means by which you measure your progress and adjust your behavior to achieve your worthy ideal. Feed-forward.

All behavior has positive intent
One of two reasons; anticipation of pleasure or avoidance of pain. Not everyone has the same idea of what is pleasure and what is pain. Find alternate ways to achieve the positive intent of inappropriate behaviors.

Individual value constant. Question behavior.
The value of any behavior is dependent upon the context and environment that it is occurring in. The individual is always valuable, sometimes the individuals behavior is inappropriate for the context and should be changed.

You already have it in you.
Everything a person needs to effect a change is already in them, nudging it in the right direction will get the ball rolling.
