EXCELERATED LEARNING©
By Bill

Did you ever
wonder how memory works?
How is it that we forget things? And what if you could "quantum
leap" your ability to learn more, faster, better, and in a
way that you could easily recall any information tomorrow, next month, or
next year; for as long as you choose to remember it?
Studies of memory
have shown that the conscious mind can hold only an average of seven, plus
or minus two, bits of information, (boi) or "attentional units,"
at any one moment. Excelerated Learning (c), focuses on how we learn, how
we remember, and how to dynamically expand you (7 + or - 2) attentional
units. (George Miller, 1952) Consider the premise that we will
have to make radical change to excel into the next decades.
The
Acceleration of Human History
If you think of
human history like a clock, the time since the industrial revolution would
be only a tiny sliver of the last minute as your clock ticks toward the
present moment. And if you think of how much time it has taken for
mankind to evolve through prehistory; the stone age, iron, age, and so
forth; you might notice that, by comparison, a lot has happened in a
very short period of time.
Does it seem to you
that life is going faster and faster; that there is more and more to do,
and so little time? Perhaps you can imagine how
quickly your children and their children will have to adapt in a world
where technology is already advancing at geometric speeds?
Can we
retrain our
workforces to keep up with escalating global demands and inter-woven and
inter-dependent relationships that now characterize high performance in
business worldwide? What about pollution or catastrophes like
hurricanes and earthquakes? Why are our brightest students
dropping out? The fact is: in your own lifetime you will see more
change than humankind has seen in the previous thousand years.
Evolution
or Mutation
Evolutionary Theory
suggests that "random mutation" is how change occurs, but new
science has documented certain simple organisms seem to be evolving by
"selective mutation." In other words, given a particular
environment, these organisms choose their own mutation,
"selectively." Now, if we humans could expand the amount
of knowledge that we are capable of assimilating;
if we could learn more, faster, better... if genius is not a
"gift" available to only a select few, but a teachable skill...
if you could reproduce the patterns that cause genius to be a genius, what
would then be possible, now? Who would you choose to become?
How would you choose to mutate now? So, "Is history "Is
it an accident that new technologies are becoming available that promise
to quantum leap our individual abilities? I don't know. Make
your own decision. But make an intelligent decision. Get some
training. If not with The NLP Skills Training Institute, find
someone else who can train you in Neuro Linguistic Programming and other
profound change technologies.
Do some studying.

here to serve the purpose of becoming a map by which you can plot the
course of your own pursuit into excellence, whatever it is that you say
you really want in life.
