NLP Presupposition 1: “The map is not the territory”
“We see the world not as it is, but as we are” – Albert Einstein

are all looking at it from our own subjective point of view. Our brains will either delete,distort and generalize information so that it suits the image in our minds. To give you asimple example, a menu describes the food, yet it is not the food.
So remember: your viewpoint is just that--your viewpoint. It's shaped by your learning,experiences, and opinions. So to go back to the presupposition, your view of the world (themap), is just a fragment of the total, absolute reality (the territory) available out there.Incorporate this into the way you see the world and check whether it affects your decision-making process or your opinions about those around you.
NLP Presupposition 2: “People work perfectly” and “Behind every behavior lies apositive intention”
At any given moment, people make choices that are the best ones they consider possiblefor themselves. The intention is ultimately for life preservation. If you can always think ofwhat people do to you, around you, and the things that you do as having a positiveintention, you will be more compassionate and understanding with yourself and the peoplearound you.
To illustrate this, let me relate a story, which is an excerpt from my upcoming book,Manifest Your Desires:
“Imagine you are in a room that looks like it's straight out of a James Bond or IndianaJones movie. The walls are closing in, literally. Imagine a countdown clock that tells you

how long you have before you're crushed, and you have 60 seconds left.
59…58…57…42…41…39...Time is running out.
You are alone in the room, the ceiling is very high, and on the ground, you see threecovered manholes.
You lift the lid off the first one and it is a sewer. The stench is so strong it infuses the entireroom. Just like the one little Jamal in the movie Slumdog Millionaire jumped into to get toAmitabh Bachchan when he was locked in the outdoor toilet. Yes, full of faeces. It stinks,but it is shallow.
Disgusted, you put the lid back on.
22…21…19….
You open the next manhole, and you see great white sharks and crocodiles swimming inhere. Petrified, you close this manhole too.
16…15…12…

You open the third one, and in here are venomous snakes, huge spiders and scorpions.Now you know you are really in an Indiana Jones movie.
9…8…7…6…
5…4…3…
So, what do you do? Basic survival instinct will kick in. So you take a deep breath, pinchyour nose tight, and jump into the first hole--the sewer.
Now you are alive, and wading in a smelly sewer. Not nice at all, but you are alive.”
Looking back at a situation, I might realize I could have chosen a different path. However,accepting that I chose the best option available at the time helps in choosing my next stepand most importantly, living in peace with myself. You already have it in you. The mostbasic resource is the ability to learn.
NLP Presupposition 3: “You cannot NOT communicate.”

How to: Ask a Woman on aDate
30 Second Guide to:Engagement Rings
What we say non-verbally is more influential in a conversation than what we say. Theclassic example of this is when I say to a group, "put your right finger on your right cheek"but touch my chin while saying it. Guess what most people in the room end up doing?Yup, they mimic my action instead of heeding my instructions.
The meaning of communication is the response you get. So if someone did not respondthe way you expected, maybe you are the one who was not clear enough. A great way topractice this is to always ask people to repeat or confirm the message you gave them. Youcan do this in a casual way without revealing your intentions; it just needs a bit of practice.
Implement these 3 basic NLP techniques in your daily life, and you're well on your way tousing neuro-linguistic programming to positively impact your life. Good luck!
