Critic reviews

"Richard Bandler is a Leonardo of our times. He is one of our living greats." ( The Guardian Weekend)

"The must have self-help book!" (Paul McKenna)

More than a book, an experience

Life changing techniques that can be immediately applied and is just a a brief but powerful introduction to the NLP world

Would recommend

I'm really enjoying learning more about nlp and this book was really good, the way it was written and the way it presented you with information was very pleasant and engaging. 10/10

Too Short

Only about 7 chapters... Not worth it. Good if your new but i still don't recommend. Would be better if it had meditations and hypnosis'

Good techniques, terrible presentation

The book uses a fictional Everyman to illustrate the concepts, but this device just seems overly dumbed down and distracts from the teachings. There is some good stuff in here if you can bear with it, though at only three hours I felt that the price was quite high.

Great book! Easy to understand!

I have heard about NLP before, but it was always very convoluted in how it was communicated to me. This book makes it so simple and easy to grasp. It's very manageable.

life changer

It set me straight. right thinking gets right results. How you see pictures in your head dictates how you feel, how you feel dictates how you react.

excellent book

excellent book worth reading! great actionable advices with a compelling story that keeps you engaged.

Literally A MUST have

I studied NLP at a brighter time in my life, then when faced with depression I lost the core concepts. This will give you the core concepts and much more in a very easy to comprehend manner. Piece by piece, it's chipping away my depression. I'm once again looking to a bright and successful future. Here's to keeping depression and unnecessary adversity away FOR GOOD.

The title says it all

Very neat into into into NLP. Introduces us to multiple techniques in the guise of going through a 3 hour seminar. Everyone doesn't have to agree that NLP is incredible, but it does have some very useful tools that can be used to overcome issues that have kept people stuck for years. If you don't feel like listening to the story & just want a rundown of the techniques, skip to Ch.8 or 9. Enjoy!

Good yet super basic

undoubtedly a good introduction but just scratches the surface. Could/ should offer more substance as NLP is such a rich subject
