“NLP is all about how we communicate with ourselves” – Tony Wrighton
Today’s guest is the host of the Zestology Podcast, Sky sports TV presenter, avid self tracker, and NLP specialist.
Tony Wrighton got the idea for Zestology after getting an unknown tropical virus on a vacation to the Phillipines that totally exhausted him. He decided he needed to learn about ways to get more energy and now he shares what he has learned with the world.
We are going to look at a couple of Tony’s favorite ways to get more energy. We are going to talk about NLP and the language of how we talk to ourselves and others, as well as looking at how we can study and track our energy levels to find hidden correlations.
Tony tells the story of how he closely tracked the amount of time he spent away from a screen each day and how less screen time led directly to an increase in energy.
Tony hosted a morning radio program in the UK and Tony started using NLP techniques in his radio program to get more people listening, listening longer, and having better feelings about their listening.
This episode can be considered Part II of the episode I recorded on the Zestology Podcast.
This is the episode for you if you are curious about self tracking, NLP, getting more energy, or modeling your behavior after your heroes to become more successful!
What you will learn:
-What is Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP?)
