Provides an easy-to-understand introduction into NLP as it captures the magic of the cinema and relates it to our everyday thoughts. The author expertly, and simply, explains that all our emotions, thoughts, skills and feelings are controlled by the "films" that we constantly run through our minds and that, more importantly, we can take control of these films to empower ourselves. Shows how to turn the horror movies of our life into action adventures, the tragedies into love stories and daytime soaps into blockbusting epics because we can edit, direct and produce them in any format we wish.
