When using NLP sales techniques it is vitally important to maintain a physiology of excellence. But what about those days where your just down on yourself. Maybe you have some not so positive inner dialog which is holding you back. These are the days when modeling a simple gesture could be your best best. What is this gesture. This simple action is one that is used intuitively when people have just done something incredible.
Before I tell you about that gesture and exactly how I found out about it, lets go over why this gesture works to create positive thinking. One very powerful technique of NLP is called a pattern interrupt. Think of a pattern interrupt like an unexpected detour. Imagine you're driving to work in the morning. Taking the same route you always take. And taking this same route you really don't have to think. Your unconscious mind knows exactly how to get you... BAMMMM. A giant tree just falls into the road in front of you. Completely blocking your path, now you have to take a different route. Herein lies the magic. At this point you can either take another route and get all bent out of shape that your late for work and on and on...
Or, you can decide, "My god! Think of what could have happened had I been a few seconds faster... I'm so grateful that I'm still alive. This is the best day ever.! I am so lucky."
You notice it's at that time of the pattern interrupt that you can make changes as to where your thoughts are going. At the time of the pattern interrupt, your unconscious mind is looking for instruction from you.
"Please tell me what to do," your unconscious mind is begging.
You see the unconscious mind is great at running patterns or programs. But it is incapable of making a decision. That is where the conscious mind comes in. Can you grasp the power of this?
Ask yourself, what do people do when they accomplish something. Either they throw their fists in the air, or they pull them back into their sides. You've seen it before. Everyone uses the fist pump instinctively. Reading an article in science daily, I discovered that even blind people use the fist pump. Pretty amazing that its so ingrained in our culture. It doesn't actually matter which particular move you make, fists up or pulled into the sides. Either one will instantly give you the feeling that you're successful at whatever doing. Instant winners state.
I use this pattern interrupt nlp technique all the time. Especially when I get frustrated at some sales presentation I'm working on. When I'm just burning with frustration I'll throw my fists in the air and shout "Yyeeessss!" It works every time. That gesture makes me feel like I just accomplished whatever it is I am working on. I've even done it in front of other people by acting like I'm stretching and screaming "Yeeaaahh" inside my head.
At first I thought my co-workers would think I had finally lost it, but then I tried it in front of them and everyone was so excited they wanted to know what happened. Human beings are so attuned to the fist pump that everyone just assumed I had done something great or something incredible just happened to me. - 31955
