One common question people ask me is, “Why does Life Beyond Limits teach nlp trainer training?” I get it. They know my company, Life Beyond Limits also teaches NLP and upon gaining a Trainer Training qualification, they know that my students will be able to teach NLP. What they don’t get is why anyone in their right mind would create competition for themselves. Here’s why we do that.
Firstly, we care about the state of the world and we care deeply about mental health. That’s the first reason we train people to teach NLP. I know what you might be thinking. Yes, that’s all good and well, but aren’t you creating more competition for yourselves? Well, that would be true if NLP Trainers were coming out of the woodwork in their millions but that’s not true at all.
There is One Accredited NLP Trainer for Every One Million Australians – That’s Nuts!
The Neuro Linguistic Programming Association of Australia Inc. (NLPAA) is the only governing body that determines if you are accredited to teach NLP. At the time of printing, its website lists a mere 26 accredited trainers in Australia and that’s including me! If you’ve done the mat, that’s just one trainer for every one million Australians. There are not enough trainers to meet demand and Life Beyond Limits is doing our bit to make a difference, not only in Australia, but in the world.
Even if Australia increased it’s number of Master NLP Trainers one-hundred times over to 26,000, there still would not be enough.
Over the years, I have offered NLP Training in Melbourne. I’ve provided NLP Training in Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane and Canberra. I’ve even traveled over 3,000 kilometers to teach NLP in Western Australia and Tasmania, and still there are not enough people who know NLP. But why do I do it? The answer is simple and certainly motivating …
We are Fighting a War on Consciousness
More than at any time before, there are so many distractions, addictions and misaligned disinformation in our world. While mental health is at an all-time high, productivity is at an all-time low. According to a Gallup Poll, 85% of workers hate their jobs and are disengaged. I have come to understand that the reason behind the complexity of this problem is simple. People make poor choices when our civilization has a poor infrastructure. Good choices come from when we know ourselves well enough, to know which avenues are right for us. However, in our schooling, we were never asked questions to discover ourselves with any level of detail. We never learned to uncover our values. We rarely were asked enough questions to define ourselves. So unknowingly, we entered into careers that didn’t suit our personality styles or our values.
Our students, who have become society’s adults were not conscious in the first instance when they chose their career and so their job. This is due to a lack of self-understanding and metacognition; understanding why they think a particular way.
When our students attend NLP Practitioner Training, they learn to improve their conscious decisions. They gain an understanding of metacognition and why they have become the person they are today. But sadly, a small portion of the population has learned NLP and remain largely unconscious. The process of wisdom is modeled in our Master Coach and Master NLP Practitioner training. I have referred to “The Ascension To Wisdom” in another article, “How To Change Your Frequency And What You Attract.”
Here is Our Vision
Now while it could be true that we are creating more competition for ourselves by teaching our students to teach NLP. We are not in competition with our students. In fact, we’re in an informal partnership with our students. We promote them and in NLP Trainer Training, we even give them all the PowerPoints, manuals and all the business files and templates they need to become a successful NLP Trainer. Call us crazy. Call us stupid. But the reason we’re doing this is to duplicate the good work we’re doing in the world and helping our students to do good work in the world too. That’s our vision.
