NLP Training

What are essential NLP skills to have?  The answer varies a lot on whom you ask and what your specific needs are.  Also, your level of expertise with NLP will have a lot to do on what would be considered essential NLP skills for you to have.

Here are three NLP techniques that I think you should have.  Again, this is just my opinion and these have been the most useful for me.

1. Anchoring.  Having the ability to anchor any feeling or experience and being able to experience that feeling again instantly whenever you want without thinking about it, can give you a huge advantage in many situations.

2. Reframing experiences. The ability to reframe negative experiences and put them in a positive light can really turn your life around.  Instead of focusing on the negative aspects of a situation, you can change how your mind sees a situation and learn how to take the positive out of it.

3. Modeling. Imagine finding the most successful person in your field of work and asking them how they got so successful.  Do you think this might be useful to you?   Modeling is almost like a short cut to success.  This allows you to be aware of all the potential downfalls out there, but also allows you to find resources you would not have otherwise would have found.

These are the three essential NLP skills I think you should use and take advantage of.  There are dozens of more advance NLP skills out there, but they require more training to use them, and may not offer an immediate return to beginners in NLP.
