    Great interview. But what is “NLP” terms that Michael keeps mentioning?

  2. Steve Says:

    @Geni: NLP is Neuro Linguistic Programming – a method for communicating and teaching the brain new, more effective ways of thinking about things. It’s a big subject – check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuro-linguistic_programming. Thanks for listening!
