Talking about Time

Time Lines Where’s your future? Where’s your past? Puzzled? Let me re-phrase that. Think of something mundane that is going to happen tomorrow – perhaps brushing your teeth in the morning. Notice where you represent that idea, in the space around or inside you. Think now of something a little further into the future – [...]

The importance of knowing what you want

Joe Ely writes about Lean Manufacturing Systems. One of the core tenets of Lean is to gather frequent feedback about the difference between what you planned to do and what you actually did, reflect on the difference and do something about it. The key thing is doing something about it. Today he tells a story [...]

Shivers

In NLP they’re called anchors. Simple sensory inputs that trigger a whole range of feelings, memories, thoughts, imagined futures, new capabilities… For most people music can be one of the most powerful anchors – the idea of “our song” is not a lover’s cliche without reason. A sign of my age (and a serious lack [...]

Clean Language discussion forum

Phil Swallow has pointed me to his new discussion forum for exploring Metaphor, Clean Language, Clean Space and Symbolic Modelling. I quote a couple of definitions of Clean Language, and also cite a critique of the approach from a Neuro-Semantics / Meta-States perspective.

Looking backwards: Gratitude

Elizabeth Lane Lawley points to an AP article that refers to this project on the psychological and health benefits of expressing gratitude for the good things in your life. The idea that there is a relationship between thoughts and health is not a new one in the NLP field. See for example the Institute for [...]

Over at Reforming Project Management Hal Macomber is seeking to transfer the learning from Lean Production into the project management world. In Lean Production there exists the concept of the “visual workplace”, commonly expressed through the 5S model. Hal points out that projects may not always involve material products and resources but always involve people [...]

Communication Filters

Some thoughts about Shelley Powers' model of intellect / spirit/ heart communication filters.

More about online influence, meta-frames and context

Steve at OnePotMeal is untangling the strands of online influence. He starts by agreeing with AKMA that, regardless of the sometimes high noise-signal ratio on the web: we can devise and sustain persistent salutary connections online in new ways that would have been significantly less workable and durable under the limitations of physical interaction and [...]

Meta States around Eldred

Over at the American Open Technology Consortium Doc Searls is going deep about the metaphorical aspects of the Eldred case: Watch the language. While the one side talks about licenses with verbs like copy,distribute, play, share and perform, the other side talks about rights with verbs like own, protect, safeguard, protect, secure, authorize, buy, sell, [...]

NLP Anchors

In wiring my mind Swerdloff gives a great description of a practical application of the NLP Anchoring technique to associate a particular song with the moment of perfect beauty as he kisses his girl… “I have a strange question” I told her. “Yeah?” “Can I kiss you? For the duration of this song.” “Of course.” [...]

Fathers

Top Ten Reasons To Witness Your Dad’s Demise (via Doc Searls) was written by Halley Suitt 48 hours before her father died – as she says “here’s my attempt to see the good in these bad times”. Reading it reminded me of my own father – he died in Jan 2000 – and just for [...]
