Language Patterns - Conversational Hypnosis Flashcards
What would it be like if…
What would it be like if you found yourself absorbing these patterns naturally? I’m not suggesting that you can do that, I just wonder what it would be like.
If you were to…
If you were to understand how easy these patterns are, how much more would you be enjoying these exercises?
You don’t have to…
You don’t have to be able to use these patterns naturally right away, its only natural that you progress as easily as seems right to you.
You really shouldn’t…
You really shouldn’t make changes NOW to any part of your behaviour. You’ll have all the time you want to introduce the changes you want in your own way.
… to the point where…
Its only natural to practice each step one at a time to the point where you’re improving your language skills without thought.
Notice…
Notice how a single word will define your focus. You could try to resist it, but to listen even halfway you have to notice first. Notice how your thoughts can be lead in any direction quite innocently.
What would it [feel/be] like if…
What would it be like if you just relaxed, and learned how to do this so naturally. You don’t have to do it, just consider what it would be like…
It’s as if…
It’s as if your attention is being focused on learning now, which makes it all the easier to learn now.
What’s it like when…
What’s it like when you’re learning fascinating new things? As you consider that, doesn’t that make it easier for you to do that again now?.
… means…
The fact that you’re even hear, to discover new things means that you will learn to master this more quickly.
You might realise…
You might realise you begin to speak differently after other people respond to you more fully.
You should remember…
You should remember that learning is a natural thing to do, just allow it to happen and enjoy the process.
The more… the more…
The more you absorb yourself in the experience and are willing to get it wrong a few times, the more quickly and easily you’ll learn now.
As [my friend/Mr X/NAME] said “…”
As MihalyCsikszentmihalyi, the renowned researcher into flow states (or peak performance states) once said “Few of us can understand any longer the enthusiasm of Caliph Ali Ben Ali, who wrote “A subtle conversation, that is the Garden of Eden.”
Most people can, [NAME]…
Most people can, Jane enjoy the process of communicating with more subtlety and clarity.
As soon as…, you’ll…
As soon as you discover the ease with which you can use this model, you’ll feel great about the fact you put in so much effort to learn it now.
How do you know when you’re…
How do you know when you’re so totally absorbed in a task that everything else just seems unimportant… now?!
Will you… or…?
Will you practice them daily and enjoy the learning process you go through, or will you just be implementing these patterns completely unconsciously so that your skill improves before you realise it?
Every time you…, you…
Because every time you practise a new skill like this, your skill levels increase and you enjoy doing it even more.
