Bobby Bodenhamer – Goal Setting

Bobby G. Bodenhamer, D.Min and Linda Rounds article about NLP Goal Setting Model.

Goal setting functions as a prerequisite to success in most areas of life. Yet sadly, still ninety-five percent of people do not set goals. Who do these ninety-five percent work for? The five percent who do! The Neuro-Linguistic Processing (NLP) model enables us to go beyond mere “goal setting” into the actual “programming” of our minds to drive us toward our desired goal. How does it do this?

The brain works primarily from our sensory system (pictures, sounds, feelings). The NLP goal setting model addresses this by getting our goal sensory specific. But it doesn’t stop there. For, the brain not only uses the sensory system, it also uses our word meanings that drive the sensory system. For this reason, the NLP Goal Setting Model makes absolutely sure that we language ourselves in such a way as to drive our very neurology and physiology towards obtaining our desired goal. The specificity of the NLP Goal Setting Model facilitates concentration on what you internally see, hear, and feel. Your attention will direct itself toward external and internal resources necessary in achieving the goal.
