Thought Mastery Vocabulary Text
Hello, this is AJ. Welcome to the vocabulary lesson for "Thought Mastery." This is
going to be a little bit of a short vocabulary lesson but that's okay. Let's start.
Let's start again with NLP. NLP is an abbreviation for neuro-linguistic programming.
NLP is a technique or really it's a method for managing your brain. It's a psychological
method. And the parts NLP, the parts of that abbreviation are N means neuro, neuro.
So neuro means nerve, it really means nerve, something to do with the nervous system,
related to the nervous system. So, for example, we have neurosurgeons. A surgeon is
a doctor, a kind of doctor, so a neurosurgeon is a doctor who specializes, a doctor who
focuses on nerves, especially the brain. So again, neuro means related to nerves
related to the brain, related to the nervous system, neuro. You see this in a lot of
different words, so neurosurgeon, neuroscience, etc.
Okay, and then we have linguistic which we've talked about already but let's talk about it
one more time. Linguistic means related to language, related to language, linguistic.
And of course, programming again, programming means to develop specific commands
for something, a system of actions. Usually we use it with computers but you can do it
with your own brain, too. Alright, so that's NLP, neuro-linguistic programming.
Another word I use in this talk, a very common word, is modify, to modify. To modify
means to change something a little bit. It has the idea of a little bit, so if you say modify
the picture, it means change the picture but it usually has this idea of a small amount,
not totally. So we modify the color, for example, we change just the color. Then we
modify the size, we make something larger or smaller. And we modify, this, this, this,
this, and then totally it might be a big change, but each individual change is small. So
we use the word modify, to modify.
Alright, another word I used, another phrase actually I used in this lesson was boost up.
To boost or to boost up, sometimes we say to boost, sometimes we add up and we say
to boost up. They both have a similar meaning. To boost means to make something
stronger or higher. So, for example, we can boost up a child, what does that mean?
Well usually, we use it in a situation where the child is sitting on the floor, but they need
to be higher.
For example, to eat at the table, maybe they're too low. They're short so we want to
boost them up. We give them a taller chair, boost up the child. In this talk I'm talking
about boosting up your energy. It means lifting your energy, bringing your energy
higher. So a boost means to give something extra, extra high, push something up is the
