🧠Week 2021-47: Robert B Dilts - Collected Quotes

"Competence involves consistency. But as soon as you are consistent in one area, you need to have flexibility in another area to be able to accommodate to the part of the system that is not changing." (Robert B Dilts, "Modeling with NLP", 1998)

"In NLP terms, then, a master is not someone who already knows the answers and has the solutions but someone who is able to ask worthwhile questions and direct the process of learning, problem solving and creativity to form new maps of the world that lead to useful new answers and possibilities." (Robert B Dilts, "Modeling with NLP", 1998)

"Perceiving a situation or experience from multiple perspectives allows a person to gain broader insight and understanding with respect to the event." (Robert B Dilts, "Modeling with NLP", 1998)

"[...] all problems can be reperceived as challenges, or 'opportunities' to change, grow or learn." (Robert B Dilts, "Sleight of Mouth: The Magic of Conversational Belief Change", 1999)

"Mentoring involves guiding someone to discover his or her own unconscious competencies and overcome internal resistances and interferences, through believing in the person and validating his or her positive intentions. Mentors help to shape or influence a person’s beliefs and values in a positive way by 'resonating' with, releasing, or unveiling that person’s inner wisdom, frequently through the mentor’s own example. This type of mentoring often becomes internalized as part of a person, so that the external presence of the mentor is no longer necessary." (Robert B. Dilts, "From Coach to Awakener", 2003)

 "The value of mapping is that it allows us to understand, plan, and communicate about some experience or phenomenon without having to actually 'be there'." (Robert B. Dilts, "From Coach to Awakener", 2003)
