How do we understand the world? Everyone interprets the world in different ways; mostly by seeing (40%), hearing(40%) or feeling(20%) • Visual (See) • speak so fast as they see pictures • They care about looks, • Wont eat ugly food • Often have wide imaginations • Auditory (Hear) • Enjoy words, • may find it easy to remember phone numbers • understands better by talking rather than reading • easily distracted by noise • Kinaesthetic (Feel) • Speak slowly because they need to feel what they are saying • they take emotional decisions • best learn by trying and experiencing the situation

What we understand is clouded by our filters Metamodels help you understand why you respond to events the why you do. • Your brain uses filters to make sense of an event • Deletion – when we selectively pay attention to certain aspects of our experience and not others. Deletion means we can overlook sensory information. Without deletion, we would be faced with much too much information to handle our conscious minds. • Distortion occurs when we make misrepresentations of reality and justify our motivation • Generalisation draw global conclusions based on our experiences. https: //www. youtube. com/watch ? v=e 8 CP 0 Fbgm.
