For example in the World Cup, die Brazilian team has an NLP trainer n the camp to redirect attitudes, to focus in on essentials and success. We look forward to seeing their results soon! NLP has an immediate and powerful impact and it achieves results that last. The approach is to move forward as rapidly as possible. Instead of digging in the past and reliving bad experiences you learn to bring good moments into the present, so that the undesired patterns fade away quickly. As one progresses barriers disappear, allowing the creative self to blossom. Recently I met with a very shy student who had lost all his confidence and he felt very stressed at school. After very few NLP sessions he got better exam results, developed more confidence and felt more positive about himself and his life. In this way NLP is empowering people from all walks of life to transform themselves in a magical way. It's astounding how rapidly positive change happens: Success replaces failure and ordinary people learn to achieve extraordinary goals. It is truly an uplifting method of transformation.
