Making better decisions with NLP (8) - Notice how you make decisions

Compare your ‘strategies’ for reaching a good decision with how you arrived at a bad one. There will probably be significant differences. Much of your processing may be unconscious so you will get better results working with a skilled NLP practitioner.

Check what kind of mental images you are using in your decision-making process. NLP therapist Andrew T Austin suggests (in this video, about 10 minutes in) still pictures lead to bad decisions, moving pictures to better ones (because it’s easier to see the consequences of the decision).

Remedy: If your mental pictures are largely still, try making them into movies.
