## Resource

We're kicking off the 2026 podcast episodes with this insight to the 6 different levels of thinking. When we set goals, most of us consider just the ONE level: what BEHAVIOURS do I need to change? This is important, but it's not the only level we need to consider if we want more rapid and permanent change. I first came across the 6 Logical Levels when I was stydying for my NLP practioners course, and have used it regularly since then. In this short episode I will walk you through all 6 levels - environment, behaviours, capabilities, beliefs & values, identity and purpose - and explain how you can use it to expand your thinking when you're considering a new goal or change. In the introduction I also share the reason I believe this podcast is still going - 5 years after the first episode back in January 2021 - and my approach to some of the solo episodes I have produced in that time (including this one!) Whatever your goals are for the next 12 months, I wish you success, motivation and all the resilience you need to get back on track when you face the inevitable challenges along the way. Thank you for listening to A Bit Of A Boost!
