NLP Practitioner Training 2004
 Written
by André Harding. NLP New York, NY, USA.
I returned home from Steve Boyley’s most recent NLP Practitioner
training on September 27. Three weeks later as you are reading this, I am
a completely new person as you will be when you decide to attend.
I am 21 years old, and for most of that time had been utterly
miserable—shy, timid, and insecure about myself. I was an excellent student,
but beyond that little else was going right for me. I suffered from depression
for years (though I never told anyone) and often felt as if overall my life
had been a failure. I had few friends and no fulfilling relationships to speak
of, plus some that were dragging me down to a slow, painful death emotionally.
In addition, I was torn in many directions by other people who were telling
me what was best for me in my future. For two long stretches of my young life
(5-11 and 14-20) I suffered silently, keeping up an act for the world that
I was happy, while I felt like I was dying.
Now everything is different!! I communicate with people
easily and effectively, I know how to probe people with the right questions
at the right time, and am helping people on a constant basis by stepping into
their shoes! I am happy, and I know how to make other people happy. I do
not get stressed, and I no longer argue. I have mentally distanced myself
from associations that were toxic to me. My romantic life has changed dramatically.
My voice has improved. My confidence has never been as high.
When you only believe, this seminar will amaze you. BELIEVE
THE HYPE!
I expected quite a lot when attending this seminar—being
familiar with what NLP does, I expected to return from the seminar a better
person. I cut a week of classes and stretched my finances to the limit to
attend.
And I did not become a better person. I BECAME A NEW PERSON!
I got even more than I expected. People who don't believe in NLP or hypnosis
are as blind as a newborn mouse. This technology is very real, and very life-altering.
Prepare to shatter your limiting beliefs. Change your perceptions for the
better. Step out of your comfort zone. And remember this: there is no such
thing in real life as “status quo”—you are either moving forwards or falling
backwards. The choice is yours.
Take this shot, you won't regret it.
About the NLP Training itself: the trainer, Steve Boyley, is
exceptional. He unquestionably has a mastery of the material, and he emphasizes
PRACTICE. There is A LOT of opportunity to practice what we are learning,
and Steve is always near to participate and to lend help when needed. Steve
teaches the terminology and so forth, but we are encouraged to USE NLP, not
know all the jargon. He is very loose, and the small atmosphere creates
a bond among the delegates and trainer. Steve is also one of the FUNNIEST
PEOPLE I HAVE EVER MET! He has a unique personality, and during the entire
training you'll find yourself laughing uncontrollably.
What you will learn is too much to list—I refer you
to the other pages on Steve’s website. And you will learn each and every one
of those things! You may not master every item, but as time goes on you will
become better and better. What is for sure is that you will know more than
enough to change yourself and to help others change themselves. The 8-day
format enticed me because there is adequate time to learn the material and
to internalize it. Do not be intimidated by the 10am-10pm format, because
there are a lot of breaks in-between.
As for the location, Prince George is a small, charming
town in British Columbia. I am told the town has about 75,000 people, but
I never saw them! I would often walk for blocks and not see a single person.
This is all the more amazing, because there are A LOT of eating places, and
also hotels. The town is not in the middle of nowhere. And I’m from New York
City, so I’m used to seeing lots of people and places. The venue was excellent,
I felt, because it was quiet, and not a lot of distractions, so that you’ll
FOCUS on LEARNING THE MATERIAL. The only complaint I have is that it was not
so easy to get internet access, so when you attend I suggest that you go to
the Library (the line can get long) nearby, or to the drugstore and pay for
access when you want it. I stayed in the Downtown Hotel which was cheap and
comfortable. The room was a nice size for one person, and the room was clean
and safe. I would definitely stay there again.
All in all, this seminar was unforgettable, and I look
forward to returning in February 2005 for my Master Practitioner training.
