“Magic” Huh?subjectivity

In NLP, we typically use the term of “magic”, not to designate external magic whereby we change the laws of physics. It refers rather to the seemingly wild, wonderful and “magical” effects that occur when we know the structure of subjectivity.

When we do now know how human subjectivity (mind, emotions, motivation, health, language, etc.) works, it leaves us clueless about experience (i.e., their whys and wherefores) and about change (i.e, how to transform things, the leverage point of change). When we do not understand human functioning (cognitive-behavioral or neuro-linguistic functioning), it leaves us “in the dark” about how to improve human efficiency, happiness, and effectiveness. We therefore live in a world of darkness and confusion about the role of “language” in human consciousness, neurology, and health.
