I'm currently working on a video (actually a whole series of videos) to bring the NLP submodality techniques to you in such a simple, easy to understand way that anyone can immediately begin using them to get real results right away. I'm totally excited about this.

And that means we have to have a little tawk.

In the next 4 weeks I am preparing to launch my Modern Jedi NLP Mind Mastery training to the world wide web in such a way as to massively increase awareness of NLP and educate as many people as possible about Modern Jedi Mind Mastery. In the process I will give away some of my best stuff. No, actually I will be giving away a lot of my best stuff.

I am making available techniques that I had to pay thousands of dollars to learn and years to master because I believe that once you try them out you will want more and you will want to join me and a select group of folks who are committed to creating amazing lives for ourselves as well as being a positive force for personal transformation in the lives of others.

Here's the challenge, I don't want to overwhelm you with too much info if you are on this list for the occasional song or NLP tip or for support in your quest to clear fear.

At the same time major things are happening with my music projects. As I write this we're putting the finishing touches on what I call the "Rilee Project" (release date is June) Last night a group of 20 kids from Uganda arrived in New Haven to rehearse several of my songs as they prepare to record them and then set off on their tour of the USA. Rilee will be recording "Together We Can Change The World" with one of their soloists so the two projects are linked.

I want to share some of the amazing miraculous stuff that's going on with that as well as the coming release of the Rilee O'Neill CD "Letters To Daddy"

So here's the deal, if you want to be a part of the Modern Jedi launch and receive daily updates and huge chunks of free training just opt-in to this list. You'll still get my weekly news letter but you'll also get all the updates.

If you want to hear about the Rilee Project and the SIFA choir from Uganda just fill in your name and e-mail address and check the music launch box.  I'll be able to give you the daily updates on that project without feeling like I'm hitting you with too much info.

I know we are all inundated with e-mails to the point where our heads are spinning. However, I am determined to connect with you and add as much real value as I can to your life. Hopefully this will be a way to accomplish that and give you a choice on what level you want to be involved.

If you do nothing you will still get my weekly news letter and other occasional e-mails. You can always change your mind later and join either one of these special launch lists. You can also go to the bottom of any one of my e-mails and change your subscribe status.

NLP Technique of the Week

 
The Power of Self Tawk
 

I don't know if you noticed, but Neuro Linguistic Programming has the word "Linguistic" in it. No linguistic is not a kind of pasta! It's all about language and how we communicate to ourselves and others.

This week I want to very briefly discuss the power of self talk, (what I like to call "Self Tawk" cuz it's more fun).

So the main thing is that your unconscious mind is constantly experiencing the language of your 5 senses. But it is also experiencing your actual self talk - that running conversation that goes on endlessly.

You can be a victim of your old habitual negative self stalk, you can spend a life time trying to get it to be quiet (as in mediation), or you can take charge of it and use it to create some great results in your life right now.

I've touched on this in previous newsletters but I want to remind you about it today because it is so powerful we all need to remember what a huge influence we can have on our external world by managing our internal state.

Your unconscious mind is pre-wired to look for answers to the questions we ask. So I recommend that you ask yourself empowering why or how questions.

My favorite is:

 "Why does it work out better than you can possibly imagine?" 

In fact that's one of the phrases that I "embedded" in one of the songs on the forthcoming Rilee O'Neill CD.

Many of my NLP team members and business associates have adopted this phrase and swear by it. It's a great antidote to some of the stuff that at first appears to be not so positive.

So here's your assignment for the coming week.

Every day at breakfast or lunch or dinner or when you are taking a break, get a piece of paper and write as many times as you can, "Why does it work out better than I can possibly imagine?" That's right. Just write it over and over again until the page is full.

Then throughout your day chant it over and over like a mantra. Pay attention to how your day goes. Then the next day repeat it.

Drop me an e-mail to let me know your results.

Got it? Why does it work out better than you can possibly imagine?

This Week's Song: (has nothing to do with NLP!)

The 21st of April (The Cherry Blossom Song)

 I'll be at the Wooster Square Cherry Blossom Festival on Sunday April 20th. If you are local and want to stop by, the festival runs from 1:00PM to 4:00PM. I'm not quite sure what time they will have me perform.

Commentary:
I live in a historic brownstone overlooking New Haven's Wooster Square Park. For about a week every April the Cherry Trees surrounding the perimeter of the park bloom all at once. Something about it changes not only the hard edged urban landscape but the people suddenly become friendlier and more open. We walk around in wide eyed wonder smiling at each other. It's wonderful.

The first trees have opened. The rest should follow either Friday or over the weekend. If you are in Connecticut you have to come by and check it out. If you can't at least you can see some photos of last year's blooming that I put to the song.

I can't wait to get out there with my video camera and actually capture the exact scenes described in the song.

Enjoy!

Here are the lyrics

The 21^st of April (Cherry Blossom Song)          4/21/05

It’s the 21^st of April

on a Thursday afternoon

I am looking out my window

At the cherry trees in bloom

And I’m thinking of you…

The park is full of lovers

Walking hand in hand

The scent of Spring is rising up

Like perfume from the land

& I am dreaming of you…

I know that you are coming

I’m listening for your step (upon the stair)

And I am wondering

If you are aware

Of how much I long to share this day with you…

And the people walking dogs

Seem to wag their tails

As they speak with perfect strangers

To the tune of the church bells

And the other sounds that softly call the night

The statue of Columbus

Takes a solemn stance

As he gazes towards the New World

While the cherry blossoms dance

And the moon begins to fill the sky  

I know that you are coming

I’m listening for your step (upon the stair)

And I am wondering

If you are aware

Of how much I long to share this night with you

Oh my love where are you?…
