Distortion And The Way We See The World

According to Bandler and Grinder, there are three universals of human modeling, and they are deletion, distortion distortion and generalization. This viewpoint is based on the fact that the way that humans experience the world is the basis for their model of the world. Bandler and Grinder believe that these three things are why there is a difference between our perception of the world and the real world.

Also, in the first volume of The Structure of Magic, Bandler and Grinder explain how these three universals of human modeling are exhibited in in the way that we communicate. Because of distortion, generalization and deletion, the way that we communicate poorly represents our view of the world. The model that we use is also a bad representation because of distortion, generalization and deletion.

It’s easy to understand, but things don’t get better. Actually it gets worse. This is because our coding is filled with flaws. These are the cracks that postmodernist tried to force their cognitive crowbars into and influence the Universe. But they forgot that the Archimedes riff contained both “a place to stand,” and “a lever long enough.” Maybe postmodernists didn’t have a place to stand, and they were only able to push their cognitive influence on universities instead.

The Essence of Distortion

When it comes to distortion, deletion and generalization, these terms can capture the nature of the decreasing value by which our experiences come from the universe. It almost has a “yeah” quality. But in reference to how Bandler and Grinder discuss these processes, it seems like the same logic is applied when it comes to the description. Thus, we have the ability to talk about these distinctions any way that we select.

We assume that generalizing is how beliefs are formed. We make generalities based upon many experiences, and we don’t have to have multiple experiences if that one is very interesting or intense. We can form a conclusion based upon what may or may not have caused the condition. We can conclude just about anything, no matter how ridiculous it may be.

Until we reach those conclusions, we might generalize that the Everly Brothers’ song that says love hurts is an example of life’s wisdom. We may generalize that success and fame means that you’ll drive around in a long black limo during a snowstorm, and it is filled with beautiful women. We basically live life by making a lot of generalities.

According to Steve Andreas, the term deletion means that we are leaving large amounts of reality behind. We should understand that we choose what we want to pay attention to, and that we will basically miss or delete plenty of information at some point.

Trying to describe the term distortion is a lot harder to do. This is because the meaning has a different meaning for different people. Deletion deals with selection, and distortion deals with accuracy. What one person considers accuracy may actually be distortion to someone else. Not everyone distorts in the same way. The same thing goes for different cultures. Everyone does it. There are people that do it in a manner that doesn’t meet society’s approval. It may actually turn into a crazy criminal act.

Quite naturally, these three terms are similar in certain ways. Deletion will influence accuracy, and it may be considered to be distortion. But, we tend to view generalization differently. Selection of information and distorting it helps us to generalize. But current generalizations, which go beyond deletion and distortion, influence how we make new generalities.

Usually, these three terms are made to seem like they are between the real world and how we view it. These three terms determine in advance what we are going to pay attention to and how distortion takes places.

Based upon how important beliefs are, it is no secret that generalizations determine both selection and distortion. We would love to provide examples of how some people would agree that deletion and distortion are involved. But with any provided example, we know that someone would say that that’s how things truly are. This shows that they touch upon everything and that they are an integral part of everyday life. We usually are steadfast in our beliefs. They form the basis for everyday life. We live and breathe them. We don’t like anyone to disagree with them. If anyone tries to challenge them, we become defensive. It is a feeling that can make you feel very unstable all around.

We use distortion and selective attention to ignore anything that doesn’t agree with what we believe to be true. We don’t like challenges because they go against what we believe. A challenge could punch holes in what we believe to be true. If we let this happen, it will go against the things that we understand and base our whole world on.
