NLP spelling strategy, easy way to memorize words.

NLP (Neuro linguistic programming) is a powerful mind tool with which everyone can
program their minds hence change their behavior and Subsequently get the results they
want.

Most people, specially children have trouble memorizing words, it is because they are doing it
the wrong way. They try to spell words phonetically, but you cannot even spell “phonetic”
phonetically. Our mind works in pictures, we remember pictures more than sounds, so the NLP
spelling strategy is to visualize the words instead of pronouncing them phonetically.
Two months ago I tried this strategy with my seven-year-old nephew—he is in class one, and till
this day he can easily spell the word ( INCOMPREHENSIBLE). You probably have gotten the
idea about how the strategy works. Let’s learn!

You can use this method for yourself and you can use it for your children or students if you’re a
teacher.
Pick a word that you want to memorize, write it on a large piece of paper, each letter with a
different color, if the word is too long then divide it into syllables as shown in the picture. Look
at the paper for 20 seconds. Now, create an image in your mind of that paper, close your eyes
and see the image, make it as big and bright as you can, open your eyes and confirm that you
saw the same picture in your mind. Again look at the paper, close your eyes, see the picture,
open your eyes and confirm. Do this couple of times then Replace the paper with a new empty
paper, visualize the image and write the spelling.
You’ll never forget the word after that.
