Beale’s Podcasts
This month I talk to one of Ania Lichota, one of our practitioners, on her proposed climb of Everest next year. I didn’t realise that 10% of those who attempt Everest never return!
It’s one of our most fascinating podcasts and transcripts. Click on the link to listen to and read a transcript of the interview: Ania Lichota on climbing Everest.


:59 Seconds – Think a little. Change a lot
Richard Wiseman’s new book is a must read for anyone interested in coaching and change. Allegedly based on research, it gives fascinating tips on topics ranging from happiness, motivation and attraction. For example:

Develop the gratitude attitude
Have people list three things a day they are grateful for. It can increase their happiness, optimism and health.

Buy a pot plant for the office
It can increase creativity by 15%!

Visualise yourself doing, not achieving
Visualising yourself having achieved your goal can lessen your chance of succeeding, whereas visualising doing what you can do to achieve your goal can increase your chances.

Touch people lightly on the upper arm
Touching on the upper arm can demonstrate high status. When tested on the street, this strategy increased the success of getting telephone numbers from total strangers by 10%.

:59 Seconds. Think a little. Change a Lot gives lots of approaches to explore and test for yourself. Click on the link to find out more.

NLP Benefits and Foundation
Do you want reminding as to the benefits of NLP? I’ve posted a short summary on the benefits of NLP here. Please feel to agree or disagree if you’re a forum member. If you’re not yet a member, do sign up!

We’re now taking bookings for our NLP Foundation on 7-8th September. Places fill quickly, so do book early!

We’re also maintaining, for a limited time, our special price of £1200 + VAT for anyone who books for a complete practitioner accreditation course using their credit card. This means you will make a saving of over £500 on individual module prices. For details, click on this link: seminar dates and offers.

Most Popular Richard Bandler NLP DVD Set
We’re now able to offer a UK version of ‘Class of a Master’ – it’s a limited time offer of £120 for the four DVD set.
While we’ve had to raise the price slightly from last month, get it now, while you can, as the international version is much more, at £225. It’s a superb set and great value, even at the international price.

NLP Video: Questions and Strategy
Asking clean questions and exploring clients’ current strategies are an excellent way of getting results for your clients. Watch and listen to a short video between Liam and me on questions and strategy. Just click on this link: Questions and Strategy Video.

NLP Definition of the Month: Timeline
A ‘timeline’ is a subjective construct which metaphorically organises your clients’ past, present and future in space.

One of the most interesting aspects of timeline is where you start.

As a generalisation for small incremental change, start with the present and then explore the future

However, if you’re looking for big or transformational change, start with future and work backwards to make the best plan.

And Finally
Thank you for reading this newsletter. Find yourself finding new ways of doing what’s important.

Next month, I talk to two of our delegates who are involved in company and local government change.

And for something totally, totally different for those of you that spend too much time on your computer on networking sites, see the lesson from ’World of Tradecraft’ about Thruul, anointed leader of the Orc tribes of Mrograthrania. It’s part of our ‘humorous videos’ series.
