NLP Learning Strategies

Well-Formedness Conditions

Begin in a positive state. Think of a time when you succeeded & felt good rather than failed & felt bad. Access & anchor appropriate resources.
Chunk appropriately. Chunk down the task to avoid overwhelm. Recycle or go external until you can represent the smaller chunks so as to sequence and prioritize them.
Get appropriate feedback relative to the task being learned.
Make appropriate comparisons that give one a feeling of accomplishment. Do not make comparisons to expert or to an ideal self but to your ability in the past.
Exit. Avoid the dangers of exiting too soon or never exiting. Exit when you have learned enough for right now, and when you have learned something well enough for your outcome. Avoid the trap of chasing clarity. All important decisions are made on the basis of insufficient information.
Expect to not understand some things. Set them aside and come back to them later. Do not get trapped in bad feelings about not understanding. Remember that understanding is a feeling.
Know your Sub Modality equivalents of understanding and use them to get information in the necessary form.
Future pace learning to the time and place that they will be needed.
