In Neuro Linguistic Programming, presuppositions play a significant role in achieving excellence.
An example of how powerfully effective presuppositions are can be illustrated using the example of starting a business. A lot of people will at some point in their lives come up with a decent business idea when going about their working day. The majority of these ideas however are regarded merely as nice ideas. Then they are filed away in the corner of the mind to gather dust. The reason most people don't follow through with their ideas is simply because of fear of failure.
If more people held the NLP presupposition "there is no failure only feedback" to be true, then there would be far more self employed people in the world.
If we our mind is calm and still when we step up to the tee, this allows us to visualise the desired outcome for the shot. Another NLP presupposition is that the mind cannot easily distinguish between memory and imagination. Creating an image of the perfect shot will cause our mind to access the vault of subconscious memories. Here in the deep recesses of our mind are all those sweet memories of the great golf shots we have hit over the years.
Certain shots on certain holes can often produce the same results. It can be said that this is because the mind accesses the vast evidence vault to use unhelpful memories from previous rounds to shape the present situation. This is obviously unhelpful. It is irrelevant what bad shots we may have played before. The only shot that matters in golf is the next one.
Bad habits are difficult to break because our mind acts as a memory recorder. This recorder is very efficient at recording bad memories and then replaying them again at the most inappropriate moments.
Using the NLP presupposition that imagination and memory use the same neurological pathways, visualising success will ensure that you use supporting evidence that works with you as opposed to against you.
