Introduction
In theory there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice there is. Yogi Berra Welcome to The Number 1 NLP Skill You Must Develop! The purpose of this training guide is to get you in the right spirit to master the amazing field of Neurolinguistic Programming. You see, the real secret to mastering the field is not to read, listen or watch NLP trainings. I can sum up mastery of NLP to a single word: practice. As you persist in your efforts, you will become part of an elite that has learned and mastered the models and skillset known as NLP and will reap the benefits associated with that mastery.

The real question to ask yourself now is: "What can I start to notice that I didn't notice before?"
You dont need a PhD to become an outstanding observer. But you probably need to become an outstanding observer to get a PhD. Written by Martin Messier Page 9

Conclusion
Becoming an outstanding observer will pave the way for developing more complex skills as you move along, such as calibration and modeling. As I mentioned at the beginning of this training guide, no one would pay $3,000.00 on a seminar to just observe. The only such seminar I can think of would be a drawing seminar, since drawing is 90% observation and 10% technique. My final word of advice is to make sure you set aside uninterrupted time to practice. Just like any other skill, the only way to acquire it is to practice, practice, practice and practice some more. Caveat: dont stress out about this. Remember the need to relax. When you relax, youll get out of your own way and allow your competence to find you. This might very well be the most important skill you will ever develop in your lifetime.
