The authors describe a multitude of ways to make learning fun, easy and effective. These exercises and strategies were drawn from their experiences of working with individuals, conducting public seminars, and consulting and training in the public school system.Dynamic Learning applies the process of learning through experience. The techniques and exercises of Dynamic Learning involve learning by doing and by exploring different strategies of thinking. In essence, Dynamic Learning is about learning how to learn. Dynamic Learning methods can be used by children or adults and have been especially effective for people who have experienced difficulties in learning.This book provides effective strategies and methods to:• Remember people's names• Strengthen your senses and mental capabilities to improve in every type of learning.• Improve your memory• Read faster and with better comprehension• Spell more easily and accurately• Learn foreign languages more quickly• Write more creatively and fluentlyDynamic Learning provides a wealth of information and activities that can be used by anyone who wants to improve his or her abilities to learn.

Thomas Edison said that the process of invention is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. The implication of this statement is that most creative activity is in fact an incremental process that has a structure and requires organization and constant effort to maintain. In many ways, however, creativity has remained elusivea seemingly mysterious gift that you either have or you dont haverather than a set of skills that can be transferred and managed systematically and explicitly.Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) provides a set of tools that can allow us to take major steps toward the overcoming of this limitation. The field of Neuro-Linguistic Programming has developed out of the modeling of human thinking skills. The NLP modeling process involves finding out about how the brain (Neuro) is operating by analyzing language patterns (Linguistic) and non-verbal communication. The results of this analysis are then put into step-by-step strategies or programs (Programming) that may be used transfer the skill to other people and applications.NLP provides a way to look past the behavioral content of what people do to the more invisible forces behind those behaviors; to the structures of thought that allow people to perform effectively. NLP provides a framework and a language that allows one to model the relevant mental strategies used by creative and innovative people so that those inner processes can be communicated about, stimulated and managed in a systemic way. Through NLP, we can: define the creative process of an individual, group and organizational level. create a vocabulary that will support and enhance the creative process. provide specific ways people can more effectively support, enhance and direct creativity in individuals and teams. determine ways to identify different types of creative people.The purpose of this book is to examine the structure and principles of creativity in order to enhance and supplement the creativity and productivity of individuals, teams and organizations. The behavioral technology provided by Neuro-Linguistic Programming makes explicit the strategies and steps involved in the creative process on a number of different levels, including: stimulating personal creativity: enhancing day-to-day creativity and flexibility on a personal level. managing group creativity: Stimulating innovation within the dynamic patterns of groups and teams. promoting entrepreneurial beliefs and attitudes.
