| From the desk of Tom O’Connor, NLP Times
The secret to masterful story telling is not in the words.
It’s not in the stories…
It’s not even in the content of the stories!
The ability to tell a story that will mesmerize your listener…
Have them following your every word (with their mouths wide open) is found in something very different…
Something I have never seen taught in any other storytelling course or book.
And, while it may seem obvious, I can guarantee you that no one is teaching this.
BUT
It is only by knowing and understanding this ‘secret hidden in plain sight’ that you will become the type of person that can read a phone book…and still have a crowd cheering you on!
Empty your mind of everything you have learnt about story telling…
Because I am about to show you a fool proof way to plan and think through your stories and deliver stories on the spur of the moment.
Stories that will hold your audience’s attention and deliver your message in an interesting, fun and impactful manner!
Discover The Most Simple, Elegant
Storytelling Tool Ever Devised
A while back I attended a seminar run by Michael Breen. I was there to film the live 2 day event for NLP Times.
However, what I heard changed the way I think about storytelling forever.
It was so sophisticated…
That I cancelled all my plans and spent my weekend writing this letter to tell you all about it!
This training was unique in every way!
First of all, Michael spends the whole first day working on you!
Not in a NLP therapy type of way.
He spent the day making the audience confident story tellers that can command the story telling resources of their unconscious mind at will!
He showed the audience exactly how to remove fear, uncertainty and doubt around their story telling abilities. You will be able to easily and confidently deliver your message and package it in the form of a memorable story!
And it doesn’t require any mind movies or NLP submodality techniques.
(In fact, manipulating a forced state change…and using large exaggerated pictures to make you feel powerful, is exactly the wrong way.)
There is no mind manipulation involved.
And as Michael always does, he simplified the entire process into a very simple 3 step formula – the storytelling triad!
3 steps will guide you on how to think through and plan your stories… AND, that will put you in a peak story telling state.
The exact same state that allows top NLP trainers to keep their audiences attention for 10 days at a time.
A state so powerful you will be able to deliver your message even if you are not ready!
But that’s not all he covered on the weekend…
Revealed: The Two Laws To
Becoming Larger Than Life
Michael then went on to reveal the secret to being larger than life when communicating with your audience.
He summarised this into the two key laws of storytelling.
Understand this and you are on your well on your way to becoming a more interesting and more exciting storyteller.
1) The Law Of Requisite Variety (also known as plus 1)
The law states that the person with the most congruent and powerful state will determine how the rest of the group will respond.
Michael demonstrates and shows you how to do this in great detail including;
- How to use commitment and energy to suck peoples into your stories!
- What it really means when Richard Bandler says “you will change or die while I’m trying!” … and how you can apply this level of commitment to your storytelling!
- How to master the art of charisma and energy management so that you literally create a mini theatre in your body capable of enchanting an audience for hours at a time!
- The 5% technique to becoming a magnetic communicator (this works in any area of your life).
- And how to tell a spellbinding story sitting down in a meeting but with the energy of someone entertaining an audience of hundreds.
2) The Law Of Response Attentiveness
This law is based on the core principal that it doesn’t matter what you say if you don’t have your listener’s attention!
It doesn’t matter if the listener is your spouse, a team meeting or an audience of thousands.
Michael shows you;
- Exactly how you can use the art of listening to intensify your audiences state.
- What you need to do to amplify the response to your stories and create the state changes that you want in your audience – you can even do this while you’re telling the stories!
- And how you can ensure and confirm that your story has connected with your audience before you move on to the next part of your message.
Together, this ability to manage your own energy and hold (and amplify) your audience’s attention… is what leads to people whispering behind your back “I wonder how they do that”!
It will make you larger than life… more charismatic… and more influential in your communication than you could imagine.
But it doesn’t end there…
Straight Forward Storytelling Frameworks
Michael has spent some more time in his simplification laboratory.
This is where he goes to create novel and powerful NLP tools that work.
It is only after he has spent time in his white lab coat and mind magnification goggles that he teaches what he has found.
And, based on my attendance at the two day seminar – I can tell you that
yet again, Michael has managed to simplify the real patterns and techniques underlying the most successful story tellers.
Patterns that he has fitted into a simple 3 step formula that anyone can easily implement.
So, once you have gone through day 1 you will have…
- mastered the ability to command your unconscious storytelling resources,
- know how to select, plan and structure your story using the triad,
- have the ability to manage the state of the room and
- Know exaclty when you have connected with the audience so you can move on to the next part of your story…
Then and only then does Michael start looking at the narrative aspect.
Michael uses the second day to explain and demonstrate these with simple easy to follow directions.
But he doesn’t just hand you the story telling structures on a sheet of paper to memorise…
No, no… that would be what old school story telling courses would do!
What Michael does is show you how to use the information in the world around you to identify and create your own story telling structures.
This is how you can become a true storytelling wizard – plucking powerful, change inducing and enchanting stories from everyday occurrences!
Being able to make even the most mundane event into a fun and memorable story!
He also gives you the most powerful structures he knows of and uses on a daily basis like…
