Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) can help one to spot and change negative thought patterns and behaviours to achieve desired outcomes. In the workshop "Unleash the Unexplored: Ignite the Inner Change with NLP", Deepak Chhabra shared some NLP techniques with participants and taught them how to understand their mindset and filter the information around them. The workshop was conducted via Zoom on 28 August 2021.

Deepak during the workshop

“Every single day, life is happening to us. Every one of us is trying to move forward,” said Deepak. He mentioned that people often see life as a race and often see the need to run fast to avoid being left behind. “You are conditioned in a way,” he said. He mentioned that stopping self-questioning would not go beyond the limit and boundary, instead, people should review their beliefs and examine the actions they take as a result of them.

He mentioned that a limited mindset would limit one to realise their full potential. He shared a way to make a shift in mindset, which was to change the mindset from “what’s if” to something constructive. He advised the participants to ask themselves discomforting questions and to recognise what they are experiencing and pay close attention to their internal dialogue. He further shared some ways that could help the participants take control of thoughts and beliefs as well as facilitate the achievement of a fulfilling life. Before the end of the online workshop, an interactive Q&A session was conducted and then it followed by a photography session.
