I watched a movie on the flight back from the Neuro-Semantic Conference in Colorado called ‘Limitless’. The story was about an unsuccessful writer with writers’ block whose life was falling apart; no money, broken relationship, etc... the usual Hollywood stuff.

Then by chance he comes across an amazing drug that helps to unlock his minds potential; he develops excellent memory and recall, is able to access an expanded awareness of his environment, notice the subtlest changes in people’s physiology and ‘read’ people with amazing accuracy. His career takes a turn, he is able to focus, motivate himself and generate new ideas, learn new information and languages easily, read and comprehend beyond anything he thought possible! He becomes rich, successful and even becomes a Senator heading for Presidency... Wow, what a drug!

But of course, as in all Hollywood tales, there is a sinister side to it all; side effects to the drug, villains chasing him and scandal. Excellent stuff for a Hollywood movie, but no one could really actually unleash that kind of potential in their life... could they?

I got to thinking, despite the rate of and ‘instant access’ to these skills our hero had via the drug and all of the hype that makes for good entertainment; what exactly is it that he is able to do? The answer; nothing special. Nothing that the average person wouldn’t be able to achieve given time and the right training.

All this hypothetical wonder drug had done was to allow him to use his brain more efficiently. All of the above mentioned skills are readily available to everyone who simply understands a little NLP, NS or Self-Actualisation Psychology and applies it to running their own brain. All of the above skills are actually skills that are taught at NLP and NS trainings; state management, sensory acuity, accelerated learning, memory enhancement, etc – and with no evil side effects! The only side effects are more happiness, more resilience, better relationships and a more meaningful life. So are you ready to unleash your brain and become limitless? And what are you going to do about it?
