NLP argues that people act and feel based on their perception of the world and how they feel about that world they subjectively experience.

NLP claims that our mind-body (neuro) and what we say (language) all interact together to form our perceptions of the world, or maps (programming) and that said map of the world determines feelings and behavior.
