RE: Rewiring Your Brain for Fun and Profit - The Fallacy of Self-Help

in #self-help8 years ago (edited)

Very interesting read, however the line between the 'law of attraction' and NLP is extremely fluid here. Visualisation works for sure, law of attraction works as well if people work towards their goal. Why still in 21st century being a single mum is explored as a tragedy? I am a successful single mum, and visualisation and NLP saved my life for sure, however I did worked my ass off to get what I want. So please don't say that something doesn't work if people don't work nothing will happen.
'I imagined the whole entire pathway that lay before of me' You can name this how you prefer, NLP, visualisation, 'law of attraction' all of them work if individuals take action.

Sort:  

My main beef with LOA is that they only focus on tiny bit of the puzzle but sell it as this amazing product that will change your life. Just 'attract' it.
NLP uses techniques to hack your brain and change your perception of the world.

I agree that the line can be fine, but there's huge differences in the approach.
