NLP provides tools and skills for the development of states of individual excellence, but it also establishes a system of encouraging beliefs and hypotheses about :
1. What human beings are?
2. What communication is?
3. What the process of change is all about?
At another level, NLP is about self-discovery, exploring identity and mission. It also provides an excellent framework for understanding subjective experiences, e.g. Psychological, Religious & Spiritual. NLP is not only about competence and excellence; it is all about wisdom and vision.
