This is another exercise based on the work developed by John McWhirter and presented in his excellent workshop, The Spirit of Enquiry.

This process can be used in conjunction with the spatial predicate framework of last month, or on its own.

All you need to do is identify something that you are in the process of exploring. It may be before you have begun to explore, or afterwards as a conclusion to your exploration. Or more interestingly you may usefully go through these points before and after to find out how much your thinking has moved on as a result of your exploration.

You are likely to find that your thinking goes further into the issue at a deeper level, and takes you outside of it and beyond your immediate circumstances.

Taking the topic, complete these following statements:

I am exploring to	get ....	so that I can	add .....
	stop ....		reduce .....
	allow ....		enable ....
	keep going ....		maintain ....
	balance ....		equalise ....
	more or less ....		extend ....
	fill in or take out ....		remove ....
	link or connect ....		link or connect ....

I would be delighted to hear from you regarding your experiences of working with this model. Do email me on admin@nlpand.co.uk

All the best
