The Swish Pattern: Change Habits Quickly With NLP

The Swish Pattern was discovered by using Neuro-linguistic programming
(NLP) to model what people do inside their minds. So the fact is you
actually do "Swish's" already! The Siwsh Pattern Technique will enable
you to consciously create the changes you want in a powerful way.

Have you ever heard the phrase, "you get more of what you focus on" ?
I'm sure you have because it's a popular phrase that is an accurate
description of how the mind works. For example if I were to ask you to
remember a favourite holiday experience and as you recall it now I
could get you to focus on more and more aspects by asking what
specifically did you see, hear, smell, taste and feel in the
experience.

So what happens with behavioural and thinking habits is that the mind

focus's on something and goes in that direction; rather like a guided
missile. Of course not being perfect enlightened beings just yet our
minds acquire unwanted habits. We can use NLP's Swish Pattern
technique to re-direct our brain away from the unwanted focus, towards
a new wanted directional focus.

This 'away from X, towards Y' principle creates a very powerful
motivational strategy known as a propulsion system. The Swish Pattern
makes full use of this principle to generate quick and effective
results.

One of the great things about the swish pattern is that it creates
generative change. Remedial change is where you fix problem X, such as
a phobia of dogs, and that is that. Generative change on the other
hand generalises change into other areas of your life. Because the

Swish Pattern utilises Self-Image as part of the technique you can
look forward to greater self-esteem in other areas of your life.

To clarify what I mean imagine you used 'the swish' to resolve a habit
of feeling low self-esteem when asserting yourself with your partner.
Because of the generative aspect of the technique you would probably
be pleased to discover feelings of greater self-esteem in other areas
of your life too. For example when talking to a certain colleague.

You know, your mind learns quickly! The Swish Pattern makes use of the
Half Second Rule principle which allows your mind to be reprogrammed
in such a way as to make the change stick and become automatic! Just
imagine that, no need to keep consciously remembering to focus on the
new direction. Once you've done the Swish Pattern you will have re-
wired your brain and the new habit will be on auto-pilot!
