Hi Grant,

I don't really have anything to add to the resources already mentioned except to add that NLP is extremely "hands-on." I tried learning NLP through books but the problem with this approach is for the learning to really be effective, you need to practice, preferably with someone who has been trained.

After almost 10 years, I was finally able to go to an NLP Practitioner course and complete it about a year ago. It was by far the best investment of time and money I've ever made! People around me literally couldn't believe the changes I went through.

I now have an understanding that I could never quite grasp from books of the tools and skills needed to make further changes and tweaks. Plus, I have the confidence to help others if they want.

Actually, as I was typing I did think of a very high quality source of articles: http://www.steveandreas.com/. Steve is one of the "first generation" NLPers that worked and studied with Richard Bandler and he is definately one of the pioneers in the field.

I really hope that your reading leads you to a Practitioner course as it did me. I guarantee it will be a life-changing experience .

Have Fun!
Mike
