Jack Of All Trades Or Master Of None

Jack Of All Trades Or Master Of None
One of the many great things about NLP is that Neuro Linguistic programming goes to great lengths to help a person become accurate in their Goal setting.For example like when we create Well formed outcomes which I wrote about in detail some time ago.What I have found with most people is the habit of being too abstract in what they want. One of the reasons I think this happens, is because they have not yet connected their conscious and unconscious mind as one.They do not yet have an internal alignment or in other words an unconscious congruent belief, that their goal is attainable.In the meantime they find themselves focusing on what they do not want, and the impact of not having what they want.For that reason I wrote 10 Steps to congruent Goal achieving which is an abstract way of getting into the state of Daydreaming and then noticing and connecting to smaller chunks.The majority of this process is Self Hypnosis which is a stress free, relaxed unconscious way.This has been really helpful to do before attempting to drill down to NLP Well Formed outcomes.I have found that they are great to do in that order.The Key to become more resilient in maintaining the action needed to succeed in any Goal is:a) knowing exactly why you have this Goal, why it is important b) what is the driving force of ongoing internal motivation of your actions.This will make all of the difference, on your journey of implementation.So connect to the very reason that your Goal is so important to you, there is a great chance that your Goal is connected at some level to one or more of your Values even at an identity level.For example the work that I do, Treating the Whole professional from the ground level up. I began by:1) Wanting to understand my own experience. 2) Then I wanted to improve myself, 3) Then once I made progress I wanted to also help others in a generalized way4) Then I wanted to Improve at communication with people to begin the process of change5) Then I wanted to learn how to Influence other people to be motivated enough to create the change6) Then I wanted to experiment with new things I had discovered by doing my work7) Then I wanted to turn my work into particular systems I could share with other people8) Then I wanted to make my systems holistic, simple, plus efficient9) Then I realized the people I mostly liked helping were professional people who were interested in helping other people.10) Then I wanted to just Focus on helping the professional service people who shared similar values to meSo as you can tell, it is a constant refining process isn't it, to decide what is Important and why and then to continue shaving bits off.When I very first started doing NLP my ideas were quite different, than they are today. They have evolved into using NLP at an unconscious level. I design new processes and create strategies that speak to the specific work I do. With NLP there is so much I can do, I have decided to focus on a specific group of people.By doing this instead of being a "jack of all trades", I am becoming a Master who learns and studies daily to improve in my specific area.I find that this creates Better Sales people, Better Leaders, Better Business People, Better Executives, Better Influencers, Better Coaches, Better Presenters etc.These are the people I find myself working with the most and since I always work with them, I perfectly understand their experience.This helps me to stay energized and focused to what I love, and plugged in to my most creative natural abilities and talents.Because of this, I have been able to develop People who are more comfortable in their own skin, more confident, better self esteem, Self worth, more adaptable and excellent communicators.Who are Self motivated, High achievers that expect the best for themselves and challenge themselves for excellence every single day.Specifically because they are able to achieve more consistent resourceful States for a longer duration of time.So to Recap:1) 10 steps to congruent Goal Achieving2) Well Formed Outcomes3) Find your Compelling motivation (based on your Values)4) Fine tune the Real Outcome5) Shave the bits off that don't apply to you 6) Focus on being a Master instead of a Jack of all trades7) Continue to learn every single day 8) Teach and develop other people with your knowledge9) Create a more efficient process10) Continue to refine and improveWhat ideas has this article sparked in you ?
