Beale’s NLP Podcast: Motivation and Money

After NLP Master Trainer John La Valle’s excellent discussion on motivation last month, we have another really great discussion on motivation with Business Coach Nicole Backmann,

Nicole makes the comment that we all need to be able to answer ‘what gives us energy?’ and ‘what drains energy from us?’ as part of our responsibility to keep ourselves motivated.

You can read and listen to our new discussion Nicole on motivation.

Then I asked the question, “Can you attract money ‘subconsciously?’” of psychologist Dr Peta Stapleton. She said yes, and her primary recommendation for anyone who wants to attract money subconsciously is to clearly decide that they want to. Is this as easy as it sounds? Make your own mind up. You can read and or listen to the discussion from the following link: Making Money.

On the subject of money, I also spoke to Vicky Karambatsos-Kitson whose company ‘Knowledge To Action’ runs free seminars and paid training and coaching on spread betting trading. It’s a way you can get into stock market trading on a minimal budget.

Interestingly, in Vicky’s view, the one thing you don’t need to make money trading is intuition – in her view very successful traders stick to the ‘system’. I recommend their seminar if the topic interests you. You can read and or listen to the discussion from the link Spread Betting.

Listen on iTunes

Remember you can catch up with previous podcasts on iTunes or from our podcast feed.

Richard’s TRANCE-formation

I’ve been lucky enough to get hold of and read NLP co-creator Richard Bandler’s latest guide to TRANCE-formation.

I now recommend it as my suggested book of choice to anyone who is genuinely interested in NLP and hypnosis:

it’s suitable for anyone from the beginner to the most experienced. The difference I find between Richard and other authors is that I believe he can genuinely and easily do what he talks about. It’s practical and it’s deeply human.

Even better, he brings NLP up to date from the incredibly useful Milton and Meta models to the latest approaches in 2008. I’ve already incorporated some of the new content in our trainings.

You can buy a copy through this link: TRANCE-formation.

The book was edited by Garner Thomson. He has agreed to discuss the book and his own experience of hypnosis in next month’s podcast – I hope you’re looking forward to the interview as much as I did.

And you can get to listen to a preview here: Garner Thomson on Hypnosis.

John Grinder on Video

We’ve a growing number of NLP co-creator John Grinder's video clips on our forum site, and the thread is turning into one of the most popular on the site.

If you want an alternative view, you can see and listen to John Grinder talk about his views of NLP, ‘New Code NLP’ and ‘NLP Modelling’.

Just click this link: John Grinder Video.

Fun Videos

I believe humour can be a very important component in change, and studying humour is a useful way of increasing our own skills – even if it only keeps us smiling. If you know of any humorous video clips, please post them on the site.

Even if you don’t, feel free to listen and watch the ones that we’ve already posted at Fun Video.

And if you haven’t read them before, have a smile as you read New Zealand NLP Trainer Stephanie Philp’s Humour Collection – and do add any jokes of your own.

NLP Definition of the month – Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)

NLP is the study of the structure of subjective experience and what can be calculated from that.

In many ways it’s our unique experience that we’re contributing to the world.

If you want some other thoughts about NLP see What is NLP on our main PPI Business NLP website.

Also, see our A-Z of NLP terms

And finally…a very special, limited personal coaching offer

Click on this link, Business Performance and Personal Coaching, for more detail. Give me a call if you’re one of the people interested. Act quickly as there is a limit to how many people I can take on.

Enjoy, take care, and remember it’s our unique experience that adds to the knowledge of the world…

Beale's NLP, Coaching, Sales and Attraction Newsletter - October 2008

Hi, Here’s your October 2008 newsletter from UK NLP trainer Michael Beale of PPI … bringing you valuable hints, tips and information on business NLP, coaching, sales, networking and attraction.

Contents - What’s in Your Newsletter This Month

• Beale’s NLP Podcast: Motivation and Leadership
• Listen on iTunes
• Business Training
• Right Book, Right Time
• Free Networking eBook
• NLP Term of the Month
• And Finally…

Beale’s NLP Podcast: Motivation and Leadership

We have another two excellent podcasts this month. Master Trainer John La Valle, discusses motivation and ends with an obvious but strikingly profound quote: 'Wanting things isn’t enough – you have to do things about it.'

And David Sales, Managing Director of the First Ascent Group, in discussing leadership, makes the observation: 'Performance moves forward when someone takes responsibility and has the belief in himself or herself to do it.'

Both have got me thinking... have a listen too and let me know your thoughts.

Also be aware that the links have changed for last month’s insightful podcast from Richard Sanders, Group Strategy Director at The John Lewis Partnership. His two interviews were on leadership and on the benefits he received from NLP. They’re well worth looking at (or listening to) if you didn’t catch them last month.

Listen on iTunes

This great feature means you can catch up with previous podcasts on iTunes or from our podcast feed.

Business Training

I’ve sometimes been cautious about the same people from a company doing an NLP training together; however, I’m currently running a series of practitioner courses for a group of professionals within Oracle and I’m impressed that they’re handling it in exactly the right way to the maximise the benefit from their investment for their Company.

When done correctly NLP-based training can be one of the quickest but most sustainable ways of leveraging business results. If you already have some ideas of how NLP training could benefit your company and would like to develop them, do get in contact.

You can read more on our site about the business training we offer.

Right Book, Right Time

I mentioned Richard Bandler’s new book, Get the Life You Want: The Secrets to Quick and Lasting Life Change with Neuro-Linguistic Programming last month.

Having now read it a couple of times, I highly recommend it.

It has many useful strategies for most of the common issues and opportunities in life in 2000 and onwards. It’s easy to read, has some excellent techniques based on sub modalities and spinning feelings, and is cheap to buy!

In fact, it’s one of my top NLP Book recommendations.

FREE Networking eBook

I’d like to remind you that you can receive a free copy of Steve Westall and my eBook ‘A Useful Guide to networking’ if you register for the Pansophix store news updates.

I suggest expanding our networks is going to be equally important in 2009.

Pansophix provide a range of ‘useful guide’ eBooks.

NLP Definition of the Month – Modelling

“The act of creating a calculus which describes a given system”Modelling, i.e. being able to reproduce and improve upon results that others achieve, is one of the key components of NLP and can have profound impact for our personal and business lives. Eliciting strategies enables us to find out the sequences people go through to do things. Robert Dilt’s ‘Logical Levels’ enable us to get some useful tips (and uncover further areas worthy of exploration) on how people achieve results, and traditional NLP modelling (a bit like the natural learning we did as children) enables us to take on whole new competencies.

See our A-Z of NLP terms

And finally…Thinking of 2009

For those of you who want to register early, we’ve published our practitioner module dates for next year. See our seminar and workshop calendar.

Enjoy, take care and remember that life is meant to be enjoyed…

Beale's NLP, Coaching, Sales and Attraction Newsletter – September 2008

Business NLP, Coaching, Sales and Attraction Newsletter – September 2008

Hi, here’s your September 2008 newsletter from UK NLP trainer Michael Beale of PPI … bringing you valuable hints, tips and information on business NLP, coaching, sales, networking and attraction.

Contents - what’s in your newsletter this month

• Beale’s NLP Podcast: Benefits and Leadership
• New Richard Bandler Books
• Motivation Thread
• Start the Adventure
• NLP Term of the Month
• And Finally…

Beale’s NLP Podcast: Benefits and Leadership

I’m delighted that Richard Sanders, Group Strategy Director at the John Lewis Partnership, agreed to take part in this month’s podcast discussing both the benefits he’s received from NLP and his approach to leadership.

He’s found that NLP has given him a framework to help guide him with through some of the baggage of history, politics and personal preconceptions associated with any large business change. He also approaches his leadership in an ‘influencer’ rather than a ‘line’ role.

Click here to listen to or read the podcast transcript on NLP benefits or leadership.

New Richard Bandler Books

Richard is launching two new books Richard Bandler's Guide to Trance-Formation: Hypnosis for Everybody and Get the Life You Want: The Secrets to Quick and Lasting Life Change with Neuro-Linguistic Programming

They are now available for pre-order. I suspect the first copies will sell out quickly, so if you’re interested it’s worth placing your order now.

I’ll also bring to your attention my favourite of Richard’s DVD’s, ‘Class of a Master’, which is a four DVD set showing Richard presenting to a studio audience.

Also take a look at the ‘Marshall Tapes’, which are copies of video tapes of Richard doing 1:1 work. If you like Richard’s work you’ll really enjoy them.

Motivation Thread

How do you actually motivate yourself and keep yourself motivated? Do you have any approaches to motivating others?

Please read and or add to this thread on our forum. If you’re not a member yet, junior membership is free and it only takes three minutes to register.

Just click this link to go to the Motivation thread

Start the Adventure

You’ve already taken at least the first step in reading this newsletter, so why not take another step? Start your practitioner training by reserving a place on a two-day NLP foundation course on the 8-9th September or on the 4-5th December 2008.

These foundation courses are popular, so register now to ensure your place.

Remember you do NOT have to do any pre-work for our courses. Delegates tend to learn and enjoy them more if they come with an open and curious state on mind. If you enjoy reading, be aware it’s normally much more effective to read after you’ve had the experiential experience of a course. It’s also better NLP!

NLP Definition of the month – Metaphor

Which includes stories, parables and analogiesIt's worth remembering that stories, etc, are and always have been one of the strongest mediums for getting a message across. It's worth being aware that when we run 'presentation skills' seminars and ask delegates, 'How do you know when someone really knows their subject?', the most common answer is, ‘They illustrate what they say with stories.’

You can listen to Doug O’Brien and Stephanie Philp discuss aspects of metaphor.

See our A-Z of NLP terms

And finally

…something different! Liam Beale’s China podcast

Following a year studying martial arts in China, my son Liam has just finished a Martial Arts degree in the UK and is currently in finishing off the thesis for this in Japan. He transcribes all our podcasts.

Before he left for Japan he completed a short podcast on some of his Martial Arts adventures in China.


Enjoy and take care

And finally…


Beale’s NLP Podcast: Cold Calling


I find call calling interesting because it’s difficult, it requires courage and it’s the potentially the start of a relationship or transaction – and unless you start it doesn’t matter how good you are you’re unlikely to finish. There are learning’s that not only apply to cold calling but also to business networking many areas of life.

This month I talk to international trainer Andy Preston about some of the differences between what works and the mistakes people make.

Cold calling podcast and transcript


Beale’s NLP Podcast: NLP Benefits

As I mentioned last month I’ve been an NLP trainer for 10 years and it’s fascinating to reflect back on the benefits that people have achieved from exploring NLP.

While NLP enables people to become better and what their already good at it also gives the mental and emotional resources to take on really large and new challenges from taking a senior promotion, organising a takeover to starting a new company or doing something totally new with their lives.

You can read and listen to three further examples of how people have used NLP Tom O’Connor, MD of Inside Leap, Therese Ahern, Business Coach and Dean Bennett, Business Consultant.

You can listen to or read their stories by following their individual links.


FREE NLP Taster evening (worth £75) – Last chance to book

Not every one realises that if we charged for taster sessions at commercial rates the entrance fee would be well over £75 per person! The taster sessions are a great opportunity to experience NLP for real – experience that you simply can’t get from a book or CD.

We’re running an NLP taster evening in London on the 5th August starting at 18:30pm so you can find out for yourself what NLP’s about. However, it will be the last taster I’m running in 2008, so reserve your place now.


NLP Definition of the month – Meta Programme

A process by which one sorts through multiple generalisations simultaneously. As such, Meta programs control how and when a person will engage any set of strategies in a given context.An example of the use of a Meta Program (there are many) is to be aware some people are motivated towards things (money, happiness etc - carrots) while some are motivated away from things (poverty, loosing their jobs etc - sticks).

To motivate someone it helps if you know whether they are motivated towards or away from things. Hence the metaphorical question 'is he motivated by a carrot or a stick?'

See our other NLP definitions from our full A-Z of NLP terms.


The Useful Guides – Really Useful Downloads

Two colleagues of mine Steve Westall and Ian Clarke have published a series of guides including : managing people, goal setting, managing meetings, time management, networking, 5 questions, and effective change.

They’re good value at £9.95 each, delightfully short but effective. I co-wrote the guide on networking. Strongly recommended.






And you can get your free copy of the ‘useful guide to networking’ by subscribing to their updates: View Guides and Updates Subscription.


And finally…FREE relaxation download

Often skills are worth developing in opposite pairs. Its worth learning to relax more AND it’s worth learning to achieve more high energy states.

To help develop your relaxation skills I’ve released a very simple 15 minute MP3 designed to help you relax and unlock some of your unconscious abilities.

Relaxation MP3.

Enjoy and take care

Beale's Business NLP Training, coaching, sales and attraction newsletter - July 2008

Here’s your July 2008 newsletter from UK NLP trainer Michael Beale of PPI … bringing you valuable hints, tips and information on business NLP, coaching, sales, networking and attraction.

Contents: What’s in your newsletter this month

• Beale’s NLP Podcast: International Sales
• Beale’s NLP Podcast: NLP Benefits

• NLP taster evening (Worth £75)
• Peter Freeth: New editions to great books

• And finally…

Beale’s NLP Podcast: International Sales

Metaphorically at least, the world is getting smaller… and markets are likely to continue to polarise between being global or local.

I’ve talked to four experienced sales people about some of the challenges and opportunities in International Sales.

Interestingly, a trend has emerged with the West generally being more product and results focused, and the East being more relationship based. I wonder if this will change?

I’d like to extend my thanks to these people for their contributions – click on the links to find out more:

Martin Woodcock, VP, South East Asia for Oracle
John S. Rajeski, International Business Development Executive
Ashley Hunter, President, HM Risk Group
Mike Bird, Managing Director, Bloomstorm Ltd

Beale’s NLP Podcast: NLP Benefits

I’ve been an NLP trainer for 10 years and it’s fascinating to reflect back on the benefits that people have achieved from exploring NLP.

While NLP is about exploring how we communicate, think and change, I think the biggest benefit is that NLP training allows people to become better at what they’re already good at. It also helps unlock resources that they have always had but were unaware of.

I’ve taken four examples of individuals that have benefited from NLP:

James Prior, AstraZeneca
Stuart Pedley-Smith, Kaplan Financial
Peter Freeth, consultant, author and trainer
Phil Jones, Management consultant

Listen to or read their stories by following their individual links.

Presenting Impact Master Class

We’re running our 3-day Presenting Impact Master Class in Milton Keynes 16-18th July 2008.

Not only is it a way of dramatically improving your presenting and influence skills, it will also show you some of the approaches to becoming an NLP trainer.

Call me on 01908 506 563 if you would like to explore further, or click on the link to reserve your place now, before the course fills up.

FREE NLP Taster evening (worth £75)

Not everyone realises that if we charged for taster sessions at commercial rates the entrance fee would be well over £75 per person! The taster sessions are a great opportunity to experience NLP for real – experience that you simply can’t get from a book or CD.

We’re running an NLP taster evening in London on the 5th August starting at 18:30 so you can find out for yourself what NLP’s about. However, this will be the last taster session I’m running in 2008, so reserve your place now.

Peter Freeth: New editions to three great books

Peter is one of the great business related NLP Authors. He’s brought out new editions to some his best books, and I thoroughly recommend reading them.

They’re:

The Unsticker: ‘The Unsticker’ works by changing the way readers think about a problem so that it either goes away naturally, or it becomes very easy to solve. In other words, “…it cuts away the noise that stops you from just doing what you know is right to do.”

NLP in Business: This one’s ideal for leaders, managers, sales people, HR professionals, project managers, IT specialists, recruiters – and anyone who wants to develop better professional relationships.

Change Magic: This book’s about making change disappear into the past so that we can concentrate on creating the future. Now, that’s magic!

NLP Definition of the month – Meta Model

The Meta Model is a model developed by John Grinder and Richard Bandler. It defines syntactic environments by which one can detect and challenge deletions, generalisations and distortions.In practice, it’s a series of questions that are based on language and, when done in the right way, can be very useful to:

understand something better
help somebody check their logic and / or
cause profound change in a client's thinking

I remember when I was a marketing manager being in a sales meeting just after having learned the Meta Model. When attacked with a series of fairly aggressive questions (part of the territory for a marketing manager), I found I really enjoyed batting them back. It’s not an intended use of the Meta Model, but delightfully practical!

Just using the Meta Model in the right way can lead to a profound, positive change in a client.

See our other NLP definitions from our full A-Z of NLP terms.

And finally…

I attended Ian Rowland’s ‘Cold Reading’ 2-day Master Class last month.

Ian describes Cold Reading as, "A set of strategies to do with the psychology of communication, that enable you to influence what others think, feel and believe."

It was highly enjoyable and there was a great group of delegates. I liken it to some of the better ‘Seduction’ courses around.

There was some unique material AND it was great fun. Curious? Find out more on Ian’s website.

With best wishes for a successful month,

Beale's Business NLP, coaching, sales and attraction newsletter - June 2008

Here’s your June 2008 newsletter from UK NLP trainer Michael Beale of PPI … bringing you valuable hints, tips and information on business NLP, coaching, sales, networking and attraction.

Contents - what’s in your newsletter this month

• Beale’s NLP Podcast: Networking
• Executive coaching Master Class
• NLP taster evening (Worth £75)
• Start the adventure
• NLP term of the month
• Your input to the forum

And finally…


Beale’s NLP Podcast: Networking

Networking can be as sure a way of building your ‘net worth’ as putting money regularly into bank or paying an insurance policy against the inevitable roller coaster of business life.

Even better, networking has a wonderful second advantage – recent research has shown that the quality of your network can also contribute to your health!

So, however good or bad your networking is, it’s something worth spending a bit of time on. If you’re not sure how to start, try to get to know and actively help one or two people who are already good networkers. Be aware that you can network online as well as offline.

This month’s podcasts are with Ron Bates and Penny Power. Both offer a number of really useful tips and ideas about networking.

• Ron Bates, who is a recruiter with over 40,000 contacts on the top online business network, LinkedIn
• Penny Power, founder of the more UK and smaller business focused Ecademy.

Click on these links now to get your own copies of the podcasts and transcripts: Ron Bates and Penny Power.

Also remember the advantage of a having and maintaining a ‘wide’ outer network is that you have more choice in building your key inner network. If you’re a member of LinkedIn and would like us to join each other’s network, simply invite using my email michaelbeale@ppimk.com

Next month’s episodes feature a number of people who are really successful in international sales…

Executive coaching Master Class

We’re running our 3-Day executive coaching Master Class in Milton Keynes on the 16-18th June 2008. It’s one of the most practically useful Master Classes we run. Remember the more we can genuinely help the people around us to perform the greater our own success will be.

Call me on 01908 506 563 if you would like to explore further, or click on the link to reserve your place now before the course fills up.

FREE NLP Taster evening (worth £75)

Not every one realises that if we charged for taster sessions at commercial rates the entrance fee would be well over £75 per person! The taster sessions are a great opportunity to experience NLP for real – experience that you simply can’t get from a book or CD.

We’re running one NLP taster evening in London and one in Milton Keynes so you can find out for yourself what NLP’s about. However, they will be the only ones I’m running in 2008, so reserve your place now.

Start the Adventure

You’ve already taken at least the first step in reading this newsletter, so why not take another step? Start your practitioner training by reserving a place on a two-day NLP foundation course on either the 8-9th May or the 8-9th September 2008.

These foundation courses are popular, so register now to ensure your place.
You can read how people benefit from NLP training here.

NLP Definition of the month – Kinaesthetic

This means relating to body sensations. In NLP, the term kinaesthetic is used to encompass all kinds of feelings including tactile, visceral and emotional.Individuals who are strongly kinaesthetic will tend to breathe more deeply, use 'feeling' words such as ‘foundation’, ‘grasp’, ‘hold’, ‘pressure’, ‘touch’, etc and may react more slowly to situations (but may then react more strongly!).

They will also tend to sit forward as this enables them to access their feelings more easily.

See our other NLP definitions from our full A-Z of NLP terms.

Forum – Time for your input

Why not contribute the future direction of our NLP forum here? Simply suggest what interests you and what you would like to see more of. Remember the old saying, “If you write down what you want, you’re much more likely to get it.”

And, of course, I’m really interested in any thoughts you may have.

If you’re not a member yet it’s easy and free to join.

And finally…

I became a grandfather for the first time two weeks ago. Mia Natalya arrived six weeks early and mother and child all are healthy. I’d therefore like to extend my particular wishes to all of you that are parents or are thinking of becoming parents. Wouldn’t miss it for anything.

• And finally…

Beale’s NLP Podcast: Health

Health is important to all of us and yet we’ve don’t always appreciate the health we have. As such, I’m particularly pleased this month to speak to two authors who have a special interest in NLP.

The first is Garner Thomson who co-wrote ‘Magic in Practice’, aimed at the medical profession.
The second is Dr Peter Stapleton who edited ‘Your Mind Power – Strategies for Behaviour Change,’ initially aimed at university students.

I think ‘Magic in Practice in particular is a ‘landmark’ NLP book.

You can access Garner Thomson and Dr Peta Stapleton podcast and transcripts by following the links.

We discuss:

• What is health?
• What are some
• Aspects of a healthy person?
• How to stay healthy

And Liam Beale has added his thoughts on Losing Weight / Weight Loss - feel free to add any of your own thoughts!

Next month’s episodes feature networking from Ron Bates the most connected person on LinkedIn and the start of our series on international sales…

Deep Hypnosis in Milton Keynes

We’re running our 3-day Hypnotic Influence Master Class in Milton Keynes on the 19-31st May 2008.

It’s one of my favourite classes and enables us all to expand our limits a little (and occasionally a lot) further than we thought possible. Call me on 01908 506 563 if you would like to explore further.

In preparing for this master class, I’ve been listening to ‘Richard Bandler in Munich’. It’s a brilliant 23 CD set of Richard taking a hypnosis class in Munich and is superb for anyone that wants to develop their NLP and hypnosis skills.

FREE NLP Taster evening (worth £75)

Not every one realises that if we charged for taster sessions at commercial rates, the entrance fee would be well over £75 per person.

These sessions are great opportunity to experience NLP for real – experiences which you simply can’t get from a book or CD.

We’re running one NLP taster evening in London (5th August) and one in Milton Keynes (24th June), so you can find out for yourself what NLP’s about.

However, they will be the only ones I’m running in 2008, so reserve your place now!

The time, and places available, will go quickly.

Start the Adventure

Gabe Guerrero in London

I attended a taster with Gabe Guerrero in London with NLP Connections, which was a very enjoyable evening.

As a result, I have decided to attend his ‘Advanced Therapeutic Specialist’ programme in November.

It covers some of the approaches that Richard uses in his ‘Personal Enhancement workshops.’ – highly recommended if you’re interested in personal change.

NLP Definition of the month – Installation

This is the process of facilitating the acquisition of a new strategy or behaviour. A new strategy may be installed through some combination of NLP skills or techniques and/or any combination thereof.

Think of a time you got somebody to do something different on a consistent basis - you successfully installed a strategy.

See our other NLP definitions from our full A-Z of NLP terms.
