Note
from Chase: Drexel Scott is joining our site as a longtime NLP
practitioner and very experienced ladies' man. His approaches to women
and psychology are intuitive and often quite insightful - I first
really got to get to know him on introduction from Alek. I think and
hope you'll enjoy reading his stuff, as he brings yet another flavor to
the Girls Chase canon. Here's Drexel's first article with us, on the
basics of NLP.
Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is a communication technique that
taps into the inner workings of the mind, allowing for the drawing out
of emotions, the seeding of ideas, and the tipping of the scales ever
so slightly in the direction you want them to go in any one-on-one (or
sometimes more) social interaction you choose to employ it in. While
the more advanced areas of NLP require a good bit of training and
understanding to execute successfully, some of the more beginner-level
aspects of it are very useful for even the casual dabbler in giving
himself a social edge.

It has been said that, if NLP could be
taught in a five-minute seminar, it would contain three simple slides.
Those three slides would be:
- Outcome
- Acuity
- Flexibility
This simple organization is the skeleton for NLP’s basic method of
setting and attaining goals. Of course, it is more complicated than
that, and I’ll explain each of the three terms at considerable length
in just a moment. As with all skills
you learn, develop, or build, your require a solid foundation on which
everything else can rest.
In NLP, that foundation is made up of those three principles
mentioned above, and expanded upon below.
