One of the most important concepts of NLP is that of Cause and Effect. Although this might sound similar to something you have heard before in physics class, it is quite different from that. Feel free to read on and find out how…

One of our finest skills as humans is to take responsibility for nothing. When something goes well, we like to take credit for it, when something goes bad, we tend to shift blame. A good example of this are sentences such as : “it was not meant to be”, yet from the same person you might hear “I will make this happen”. I know I do it, so feel free to admit within the confines of your own brain that you do it too.

Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) is not a happiness philosophy, but a mind set of choice. If you want to feel the maximum power possible, then you should choose to take responsibility for whatever might happen in your universe. Once you do that, things will stop happening to you, and you will actively start making things happen, each and every day. Relying or blaming things on fate has proven to be quite an inefficient strategy, so do feel free to try anything else.

This is what is meant by: C > E

Once you decide to move from Effect to Cause, you will notice that it is much easier to get the results you want. You will feel empowered and stronger than you did before. However, at Effect, things look different. At Effect, you make excuses and find (sometimes very creative) reasons why you cannot do what you want to do.

All the NLP effectively wants to do is put you back at Cause. What you do from there, is all up to you. Hanging around at Effect is not efficient for getting what you want, so feel free to be at Cause, because you can!
