All Learning Behavior and Change is unconscious.
Prime directives of the unconscious mind The conscious mind is the goal-setter The unconscious mind is the goal-getter 1. Stores memories. Temporal (in relationship to time) Atemporal (not in relationship to time) 2. Makes associations (links similar things and ideas), and learns quickly 3. Organizes all your memories (Uses the Time Line. Mechanics is the Gestalt) 4. Represses memories with unresolved negative emotion 5. Presents repressed memories for resolution (to rationalise them and to release emotions) 6. May keep the repressed emotions re pressed for protection 7. Runs the body Has a blueprint: of body in the present condition and of perfect health 8. Preserves the body Maintains the integrity of the body 9. Is the domain of the emotions 10. Is a highly moral being (the morality you were taught and accepted as a child) 11. Enjoys serving and needs clear orders to follow 12. Controls and maintains all perceptions Receives and transmits perceptions to the conscious mind 13. Generates, stores, distributes and transmits energy 14. Maintains instincts and generates habits 15. Needs repetition until a habit is installed 16. Is programmed to continually seek more and more. There is always more to discover, learn and implement 17. Functions best as a whole integrated unit Does not need parts to function 18. Is symbolic. Uses and responds to symbols 19. Takes everything personally. (The basis of Perception is Projection ) 20. Works on the principle of least effort Path of least resistance - which is why it is effortless to be outstanding at something you are passionate about 21. Does not process negatives directly - do not focus on what you do not want, focus instead on what you want
Creating an achievable outcome One of the contributions of Neuro-Linguistics to the field of personal development is that outcome orientation produces better results when compared to not having an outcome. You can use these questions to assist you in specifying the outcome for Time Line Therapy Techniques. 1. Stated in the positive: What specifically do you want? 2. Specify present situation: Where are you now? 3. Specify the outcome: What will you see, hear, & feel, when you have it? The outcome should be specified As if now. Present Tense. Make it compelling. Be sure your future picture of the outcome is dissociated in the Time Line. 4. Specify evidence procedure: How will you know when you have it? 5. Be sure it is congruently desirable: What will this outcome get for you or allow you to do? 6. Is it self-initiated and self-maintained? Is it only for you? 7. Is it appropriately contextualized? Where, when, how, and with whom do you want it? 8. What resources are needed? What do you have now, and what do you need to get your outcome? Have you ever had or done this before? Do you know anyone who has? Act as if you have it. 9. Is it ecological? For what purpose do you want this? What will you gain or lose if you have it? What will happen if you get it? What won t happen if you get it? What will happen if you don t get it? What won t happen if you don t get it?
S.M.A.R.T. Goals S M A R T Specific Simple Measurable Meaningful to you As if now Achievable All areas of your life Realistic Responsible / Ecological Timed Toward What You Want
Steps for putting a single goal in your future 1. Be sure the goal is stated so it is s.m.a.r.t. 2. Get the last step: What is the last thing that has to happen so you know you got it? 3. Make an internal representation of the last step: A visual representation, or auditory representation, or kinesthetic representation. 4. Step into the internal representation 5. Adjust the submodalities: Adjust them for the most positive kinesthetic or for the most real feeling. A submodality is a sub-set of the major modalities of our senses: visual, kinesthetic, auditory, olfactory, and gustatory as well as auditory-digital (self-talk) in other words a submodality may be the location or size of the internal picture, the volume of a sound, or the direction of a feeling for example. 6. Step out of the internal representation: As if you are holding the internal representation in a polaroid-picture in your hand and you are looking at your body in the picture. 7. Take the internal representation and float above now: This is a process of active imagination. Imagine your past stretched out in one direction below you and your future stretched out in the other direction below you. 8. Energize the internal representation with four deep breaths: Breathe in through the nose, out through the mouth, and blow all your energy into the internal representation. This is a metaphor for the unconscious mind which brings the internal representation to life and makes the outcome even more compelling for you to achieve. 9. Float out into the future: Take the internal representation and float above the time line out into the future. 10. Insert the internal representation into the time line: Let go of the internal representation and let it float right down into the time line at the specific date when you have set the outcome for. 11. Notice the events between then and now re-evaluate themselves to support your goal. 12. Float back to now and come back into your body.
