Episode notes
Early Training And The User's Guide
- Doug O'Brien learned Sleight of Mouth in 1987 from Robert Dilts and Todd Epstein and later taught it to Tony Robbins trainers in New York.
- He wrote The User's Guide to Sleight of Mouth to include the visual charts missing from Dilts's original book.
Deliberate Practice With Charts
- Practice Sleight of Mouth deliberately by filling out the charts and rehearsing reframes before real interactions.
- Frequent practice makes pattern responses pop up naturally when facing beliefs or objections.
Let Patterns Surface Naturally
- Learn patterns by letting appropriate reframes 'pop up' rather than forcing a fixed order; follow what naturally fits the belief.
- Trust pattern recognition: consequence, intent, metaphor, etc., will surface based on the expressed belief.
