Better Life and NLP

How to better control your own thinking and thereby change your actions and behavior?

How to improve your quality of life and achieve better results in life?

Our quality of life is formed by what meaning we give to things in our life, what kind of choices we make and how we act in different situations. By controlling our thinking and mind, we also control our behavior and the meaning we give to things.

This book contains ideas, instructions and techniques for life management and self-leadership. The different chapters of the book introduce the reader to the use of Neuro-Linguistic Programming, NLP, through different topics.

This book doesn't tell you what you should think or how you should act, because it all depends on your goals and what you value. Instead, this book teaches you how you can make the changes you want in your thinking and, through that, bring about concrete changes to improve your quality of life.

The purpose of this book is to arouse thoughts and insights in the reader, because without them our minds will not be motivated to look for new solutions. In addition, this book introduces a whole bunch of different techniques and methods that will help you move forward on your path guided by your insights.

This book also offers plenty of new thoughts and insights, guiding you towards the things you want in your life.
