How To Reframe Anything

When I was a kid I used to love the
Brady Bunch.

There was one episode where they
were at some amusement park.

The mom told the two youngest kids
they could go off on their own, but not
to eat anything.

Otherwise, they would spoil their
dinner!

So every opportunity they could, the
kids ate.

But they didn't call it "eating."

We're not eating, we're "tasting."

We're not eating. We're just putting
the ice cream in our mouths, and it's
going down our throats on its own.

The truth is that any kind of meaning
we put on anything is INCREDIBLY
flexible.

Of course, our brains are hard wired to
see danger in many places where it
doesn't exist.

Those that didn't have this "danger
around every corner" gene were
removed from society.

Even if they were "wrong" one time
out of a hundred, that was enough to
end their genetic lineage.

Which is why some things are harder
to "reframe" than others.

Like when there's any question of
social safety, your automatic brain
response is "better safe than sorry."

Only we don't live in a society where
getting any kind of social disapproval is
dangerous.

Sure, in our ancient history maybe, but
not any more.

Which is why a lot of NLP "tricks" don't
really last.

Imagine you've got two circuits in your
brain.

One for "fear." One for "pleasure."

Sure, you COULD do a Swish Pattern,
and practice replacing your "fear"
response with "pleasure."

And it might feel cool when you do it.

But unless you drill it into your brain,
several times, it won't stick.

Imagine thinking that all you had to do
to lose weight was to do ONE sit up.

Or if you were training for a marathon
you only needed to go jogging ONCE.

Or if you wanted to learn how to play
Moonlight Sonata, you needed to
watch it on YouTube a couple of times.

But for some reason, this is how a lot
of people "do" NLP.

Some kind of "once and done" magic
fix.

Remember, we're talking about
rewiring ANCIENT brain patterns that's
kept us safe for MILLIONS of years.

But each time is easy. Five minutes a
day. A little journaling.

Make this a daily PRACTICE, rather
than a magic pill, and you'll be on the
path to greatness.

And since most people are WAY too
lazy to do ANYTHING other than take a
magic pill, you'll be WAY ahead of the
game.
