In an age of  world-wide telecommunications and instant messaging getting attention is as easy as pushing buttons. Keeping that attention and leveraging it into win-win situations takes more than a phone or a mouse -- it takes communication skills, not just telecommunication skills. 

What's a business owner to do?

The first step is to listen to the experts who study, understand, and know the techniques to make things happen.

The next step is to take action and apply the lessons in your daily life. Not only have I listened to other successful people share this little two-step plan -- I've put it into action and worked through my own sticking points. 

I hope you share the same base goal that I have: to improve the world with every action. Whether you've ever phrased it in such an overarching way or not I suspect you wouldn't be reading this unless you value growth and improvement in your own life to the point that it overflows into the lives of those around you. 

Tools for becoming "efficiently lazy"

We all have the same amount of time each day and so the faster we can get each important task done the more important tasks we can accomplish. Doing this with the minimal energy expendature is efficiency. Because I'm efficiently lazy and so I constantly search out and test new tools to improve my life and the lives of those around me. As a "highly technical boy" many of my tools are electronics or machines, however the most effective tools I've discovered for interacting with humans is Neuro-Linguistic Programming. NLP is about using your greatest asset, your mind, to positively impact the people with whom you interact. 

If this is your first introduction to NLP you are lucky. I lost months, even years, that I could have been benefiting from NLP because my first exposures actually repelled me from the field. People were pushing NLP as it related to things that did not fit my world view like speed seduction, hypnosis, or trippy New Age experiences. Fortunately for me (and you!) I happened to discover one of the core aspects of NLP that really clicked: language patterns. 

Immediately my personal life changed. Instead of just playing with words they were revealed as the foundation of reality as we know it. Commitments that had been draining suddenly blossomed. Creating healthy new relationships became straight-forward. And best of all the world became a friendly place full of possibilities again! That was when I decided people need to know about this!

Access resources, bypass excuses, learn "self defence"

I became conscious of all the amazing reserves of untapped resources each of us has. It is like sitting on the richest oil field in the world and never knowing it! This is because in the past most of us had been held hostage by countless excuses and limiting beliefs. Most of these are not your fault. We are constantly being bombarded by suggestions -- some good, others not so good. 

After learning NLP one of the biggest improvements in my own personal life has been identifying and rejecting the unintended harmful "programming" over time and replacing it with useful patterns and access to powerful internal resources. I am so glad I learned these patterns before my kids were born. I hear the awful things people tell their children and immediately think of a dozen ways to edify that child while redirecting them. And I just keep thinking "the more people who use this stuff the better the world will be!"

Create more win-win situations through manipulation?! 

I also learned that some people call NLP manipulative. Since I love words I had to look this one up: one of Webster's definitions of manipulate is "to manage artfully or fraudulently." What a wide range of possibilities for that one word! Just like all tools NLP can be used for magnificence or malice. Maxwell could have just as easily used his silver hammer for good as for ill -- framing a Habitat for Humanity house rather than the old ultra-violence. As a chiropracter friend said "the anatomy and kinematics are the same whether you are a skilled doctor adjusting a patient or Steven Segal silencing a terrorist." Artful or fraudulent? 

Persuasion expert Dave Lakhani has a great distinction between persuasion and the "fraudulent" type of manipulation, what could be called coercion. To paraphrase Dave: creating a win-win situation is persuasion and creating a win-lose situation is coercion. (And for completeness sake lose-lose is just poor compromise.) 

Ecology isn't just for tree-huggers.

The information and skills you are develop from the NLP experience are the hammer or the knowledge of anatomy. What you do with the tools is what determines that you are acting with integrity and positive intent. If it is not your intent to help others then stop now and save us all the time, energy, and drama.

Still reading? Great! Let's talk more about win-win situations. NLP can take the idea of win-win to the next level by taking the win for ourselves and the win for our client and also making sure we have an ecological win for everyone else touched by our projects. This sort of ecology is more than just save the whales and hug the trees -- this is about creating value from the moment we conceive of an idea all the way beyond the successful completion of the tasks. Join the party today to seek out more artful ecology. 

Who can benefit from NLP?

In case you hadn't caught it, I think that everyone can benefit from learning and using NLP.  I naturally fall into the teaching role and so when I finished my NLP Practitioner certification I took immediate action to become a trainer of Neuro-Linguistic Programming and committed to learn in the best possible environment. I had connected with a couple of highly skilled NLP trainers for my Practitioner and Master Practitioner certification. I merrily took Joel and Debra's hearty suggestion and continued on to become licensed as a Trainer of NLP by Dr Richard Bandler, one of the co-founders of the field. 

I was full of knowledge about NLP, ready to share it with the world, and still plodding along in my business. I shared NLP with a few people here and there before realizing that just doing another Practitioner training was not how I could best serve the world. My biggest business break-through occurred because of a conscious decision and a two-minute conversation -- neither of which would have happened if I had not been at a live event!

The missing link...

As I drove to my second off-line event I decided that I was not going to be a wall-flower like at my first event. I was chock-full of communication skills and ready to use them. I still didn't know how I wanted to apply my skills and knowledge. Then we had a chance to introduce ourselves to the room. I stood up and said "I'm Wayne Buckhanan and I'm looking for ways to serve people with NLP and accelerated learning." That moment lead to a number of discussions over the rest of the weekend and my business has not been the same since!

The most powerful conversation I had that weekend was with Paulie Sabol. I had never really met Paulie even though he was one of the hosts of the first live event I attended. Paulie gave me a quick suggestion and immediately set my brain into motion. Unfortunately my feet didn't follow my brain and I wasted a number of golden opportunities that weekend. Fortunately my feet eventually caught up and when Paulie encouraged me to create a whole new set of opportunities I listened and took action. Now I'm inviting you to come along with us this January to make your own powerful connections while relaxing in the Caribbean.

Leverage the power of a mastermind and expand your network

You will have special access during the "sea days" to powerful Mastermind Sessions with some of the world's TOP millionaire marketers, their pals, and  other VIP members who are attending.

This is a perfect chance to not only learn from other experts but also to build rapport. People like people like themselves and people work with people they know, like, and trust -- especially busy people. What better chance to prove that you are an action taker, the type of person others want to do business with...

The "Million Dollar Mastermind" moderators Paulie Sabol, Donna Fox, and Tom Beal are the brilliant leaders of last year's highly acclaimed i5 Gold Mentoring Program, from which many coaching clients have gone on to new levels of online marketing success. As Master Marketing Mentors Paulie, Donna and Tom will help facilitate the onboard brainstorming sessions each morning on the days we are at sea.

Furthermore, you can participate in several hotseats and networking sessions that you can use to grow your business the moment you get home! And while at sea you'll celebrate the key relationships you've forged as part of your cruise experience.

Plus, they have invited their close friends, top affiliates, and jv partners. Imagine the connections you can make over 8 networking dinners, 4 special training meetings, and private time at the casino, disco, bar, or pool.

No pitch-fest, just conversation

You might think that putting this many marketers in one place would involve constant stage presentations and endless offers of homestudy courses and coaching. This is not one of those events. This is like-minded indivduals on vacation with their families. Oh, and they happen to spend a few hours when at sea helping those like-minded individuals connect and grow their business.

As I said, the point of this cruise is to bring together like-minded individuals so they can help one another get to the next level. With what you now know about communication how could I not mix these advanced skills in with this great networking opportunity?!

Join a select sub-group on the cruise and learn NLP with us. To keep the emphasis on vacationing we will spend no more than three hours a day while at sea exercising the NLP skills you have been developing at home. The bulk of your Practitioner training will take place anywhere you can access a computer. 

The flexibility and convenience to start today

All learning takes place over time. The more quality time spent in practice the more valuble the learning becomes in your life. Some trainers believe that unless you are locked in their training room for 10 or 20 days you haven't really learned NLP. The trouble with this model is that when you leave the training room you have not had the opportunity to integrate your learning into your whole life.

When you join us over the next several months you will integrate the skills and mindset of Neuro-Linguistic Programming into your daily routine. Starting today you are learning on your own schedule with new material introduced each week.

To ensure that the integration in your life is of the utmost quality and therefore highly valuable to you there will be a number of "home-play" tasks to complete before certification. (We have found four letter words like "work" are not nearly as motivating as ones like "play", "flex", and "grow"!) These exercises are similar to a fitness routine: small gains over time build into amazing changes.

In addition to the weekly lessons there will be plenty of time for interaction within our group on live monthly Q&A calls. You will have the opportunity to ask all of the questions that develop out of your practice and home-play exercises. This will raise your skills and abilities to Olympian levels.

Improve decision making (for yourself and your clients) 

All the trainings that I will ever take part in emphasize the importance of integrity and respect -- and the epitome of respect is to guide another person out of their own way, past objections and mis-beliefs, into a situation that is truly win-win for everyone involved. - Imagine yourself creating the win-win-win deal of a lifetime. Notice how adamant you are that this deal go through -- not just because you benefit, but because of al the ways you benefit your client and the world! Hesitation has been transformed into motivation. You have crossed the 't's and dotted the 'i's internally for yourself and your client. You are in such deep rapport with your client that you notice the last niggling concern they have and are able to address it before they are even conscious of their (former) hesitation. 

Use the built-in B.S. detector 

Everyone has a built-in detector that tells us when something isn't quite right (and some even listen to it!). This detector starts alarming if not everything is in full alignment and in your best interest. Just like there is no way to *make* people do things they wouldn't do otherwise, there is no way to bullshit the detector. 

Rather than trying to work around the B.S. detector you will learn how to work in total alignment and congruence so that even the most sensitively tuned people will feel that you are genuine and helpful because you will be genuine and helpful! We will even get rid of the "false positives" where people's detectors started to alarm, not because you weren't genuine but because you were nervous or distracted. 

Tune your voice and words for impact 

The words we use communicate less than 25% of our total meaning and yet they can render the other 75% moot with poor choice of phrase. Everyone uses language patterns every day -- some people even use them in a resourceful way! Even the best language patterns in the world will fall flat if delivered with poor tone -- both the context and style in written form and the quality of your voice when speaking. 

Discover the most common patterns and put them to use for you and for your clients. Little things like "and" versus "but" will bring whole new meaning to your communications. Are you ready to add that extra dimension to the delivery of your meaning? Your voice will get a tune up and your written words will blast off the page. 

Deliver with appropriate feeling 

Unless there is full congruence between mind, body, and spirit you will not have the impact you intend to have. Whether it is posture, guestures, or even just the sparkle in your eyes the little things matter -- almost always more than the words you say! 

Come learn several simple techniques for aligning everything you do and say by being fully present in the moment and in the right state of mind. (Hint: this works in writing too. You have to feel the excitement in order to be able to communicate it -- spoken or written!)
