Patterns Of Excellence Adam Khoo

Do you ever wonder what it is that allows some people to become so very successful, while most of us struggle just to get by?

It’s easy to think that they have something special, something the rest of us have no access to. This is half right. They do have something special. But it’s not something that’s out of our reach. Anybody can get access to that secret ingredient that makes those people successful.

And many people have already done just that. They have tapped into and are using the same “Patterns of Excellence” that have helped those special few to achieve their success.

And you can join them. Here’s how.

Adam Khoo, millionaire and best-selling author, has created a seminar where he teaches others those very Patterns of Excellence. The seminar costs $1,600, and that may be out of reach for a lot of people. But now, he has decided to make the information available to a wider audience at a small fraction of the price of the seminar; as a home study program version.

That home study program contains the following:

10 CD-length audio files
10 transcripts of the audios
a 153 page workbook/manual
and a bonus book: Minds of Winners
All of it is downloadable either as mp3 files or as pdf files.

Since you may be wondering how anything could possibly have that kind of transformative power, Adam starts his course by sharing his own story: Contrary to what you might think, he wasn’t always a millionaire. He was actually kicked out of school and had extreme difficulty to find any school that would even take him in. But then he encountered the exact mind set technology you’ll learn in Patterns of Excellence, and he turned his life around dramatically. He became a valedictorian, and then, within just a few years, a Millionaire when he was 26 years old. He also became a best-selling author and one of the top peak performance coaches and speakers in Asia.

And in his home study course, you will gain access to the same strategies Adam used to achieve his own success. You’ll discover how to copy and model the strategies of success that you see in the successful people you admire, and, as you start applying them in your own life, get the same results.

If you have setbacks, and you will, you’ll learn how those super achievers deal with setbacks, and how you can do the same.

The key technology you will learn in Patterns of Excellence is something called Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). And the 10 CDs of your home study program provide you with some of the clearest and most immediately usable explanations and directions of how to apply NLP in your own life that I have ever come across.

CD1 - The Ultimate Success Formula

The first CD gives you a detailed preview of the whole course and also introduces you to Adam’s Ultimate Success Formula and how it holds the key to achieving any result you want in life. This is the secret that separates those who achieve what they set out to do and those who don’t. It explains how anybody, if they put their mind to it, can become a success. It’s also what helped Adam achieve his own success.

Even the most successful people experience setbacks, but somehow, they bounce back quickly. We have all heard of stories of millionaires and even billionaires who bounce back from near-bankruptcy to being millionaires and billionaires once again at record speed. Donald Trump comes to mind, as does Bill Bartmann. How do they do that?

Adam walks you through that so that you too can overcome setbacks and failure and use them to achieve your goals even faster.

CD2 - The Power Of States & Physiology

The second CD teaches you how to use your body to program your mind for success. It helps you to stay in that high-achiever mindset at all times by helping you to gain control of your emotions. Of course, some of the finer points will become a lot clearer as you move through the program.

CD 3 will delve more deeply into the technicalities of NLP. It will introduce you to something called “submodalities,” a key to how to achieve desired emotional states and break through setbacks and undesirable patterns.

CD 4 deals with your beliefs and how they determine whether you’re successful or not. It will show you how those beliefs are created and how you have complete control over them – so you can change them so they will serve you instead of sabotaging you.

CD 5 helps you to design your life and introduces you to another extremely powerful concept in NLP: Reframing. Between those two, you can gain control over just about anything that has been holding you back to date.

Of course, there’s much more in the remaining five CDs. You’ll learn about the power of values and how to make adjustments to your values so that serve you and help you achieve your goals. You’ll learn about how to build rapport with literally anyone and how to communicate effectively, both crucial ingredients to success.

The next two CDs are my favorites: they introduce you to extremely powerful language patterns that will help you to have such powerful influence on others it will absolutely amaze you. There’s the so-called Milton Model, named after Milton Erickson who developed it. And then there’s what’s called the Meta Model.

http://setfreedom.eCa.sh/PEEA

Both of them are powerful tools to change people’s beliefs. And as a fringe benefit, you’ll be able to claim back your own power as you see through the persuasive techniques of politicians and advertisers who are using some of those techniques on you.

The last CD pulls everything together into usable strategies you can use every day. It also helps you pinpoint dysfunctional strategies you might be using right now that are holding you back, and replace them with ones that help you achieve your goal.

What’s included in the package?

The 10 audio files. Complete transcripts for all 10 audios. And an excellent 153 page workbook that will accompany you as you work your way through the CDs. It has illustrations that will make some concepts easier to understand, summaries, key points, check lists, work sheets, and plenty of room for notes as you do the many exercises that Adam will guide you through as you listen to the audios.

Exercises? You bet. They are what really makes this work. It’s a transformational program, and, if you will forgive my using a phrase that has almost become a cliché by now: It works if you work it. But if you don’t work it, all bets are off. You might feel momentarily inspired, but unless you actually follow through on the inspiration with real action, not much will change.

So go ahead and do the exercises. Work your way through the workbook. You will be very glad you did.

Imagine you had paid the full price for the workshop. Would you skip a day? Heck, no! So don’t skip “a day” here either. Just do it all.

Of course, once you have filled everything in, the workbook will also serve as an ideal refresher course whenever you need to review some of the concepts. And the more care you took when you filled it in at first, the more valuable it will be to you in the long run.

Like Adam’s other programs, Patterns of Excellence provides you with powerful and actionable information. All of it is presented in easy-to-follow step-by-step fashion. And the sum total of it is bound to change your life – if you do the work. It’s literally a blueprint for achieving the success you desire. If you just want pretty book to add to your hard drive, skip this one. If you’re ready to do the work and take your life to the next level, though, this is a must-have.

Secrets of Self-Made Millionaires ebook Adam Khoo

Do you ever wonder what it would take to become a self-made millionaire? Do you wish you had the resources they had? Do you believe that sadly you don’t have a chance?

Cheer up. You do have a chance. There’s an easy way to get access to the very secrets that helped self-made millionaires become who they are. And they’re not just the fluffy generalities you find in many books. They’re the real deal.

Adam Khoo’s Secrets of Self-Made Millionaires, doesn’t just provide a list of the kind of information that enabled the self-made millionaires to make their millions. You don’t find just pep talks although there are plenty of those. In fact, as you go through the book, you’ll discover, there’s real effort involved, and those pep talks can come in handy. You’ll have to work on your mindset as well as on your business. But it can be done. It has been done many times before, and Adam’s book gives you the tools to do it too.

The only problem: No more excuses.

http://setfreedom.eCa.sh/SMMA

So how will it work? In Adam’s typical style, he shares his personal history and plenty of motivational stories to get you excited and show you that you do have what it takes. If the people in his stories could do it, surely, you can too.

Adam gets you started with a little soul searching: Under the heading, “Reasons why I’m not rich yet,” you’re invited to list the reasons why you, yes you, are not yet rich. Then he proceeds to teach you how to overcome each and every one of those reasons.

He continues with an overview over the 9 habits of self-made Millionaires: from always exceeding expectations to being proactive, taking total responsibility, doing what you love, and more. The last one: Millionaires respect and love money.

Now here’s the rub for a lot of people. So before moving on, Adam deals with those money beliefs. So many of us have been brought up with very counterproductive beliefs about money. We were told that it’s evil. Or that we don’t deserve it and that we can never get it anyway. And if we do, it will only bring problems. And sooner or later, someone will take it away. So wouldn’t it be better not even to get started?

With beliefs like that, is it any wonder if money stays at a safe distance? Adam proceeds with helping you install new beliefs, beliefs that are much more likely to help you draw money into your life. In fact, lots of money.

As he moves from chapter to chapter, he unpacks each of the nine habits he introduced and helps you make them your own. Not only does he provide numerous examples but also plenty of work sheets for you to fill out. This is a book that’s not just to be read, but also to be worked. If you don’t, it obviously won’t bring the results you’re hoping for. If you do, chances are very good that the sky will the limit for how far you can go.

Adam himself is a case in point, and he uses his story as a motivational example throughout the book. From his start as an academically weak student at the very bottom of the class, he turned himself into a top student. He also set himself the goal to become a millionaire by age 26 – and achieved it.

Inspiring as he is, he doesn’t rely just on his own story to make his case but provides us with many more inspirational examples throughout the book, including Warren Buffet.

In the chapter about the first of the habits of self-made millionaires, Adam gives us insights into cash flow strategies of the rich. And most of us are in for a surprise. There’s the myth out there of the extravagant millionaire who drives fancy cars and basically throws money away. Adam shows that nothing could be further from the truth.

While millionaires will pay for value, they can be outright stingy when they don’t feel the expense is necessary – or worth it. They also keep close tabs on what they spend, and every dollar that goes out the door has to basically earn its keep.

http://setfreedom.eCa.sh/SMMA

But the most fascinating – and toughest part – comes with the worksheets that are included. You, the reader, are challenged to take an assessment as to where exactly you stand with your own net worth.

There is room for income and outflow, and when Adam talks about spending less than you earn and invest the rest in a way that will make it grow with compounded interest, until it turns into a tool of positive cash flow, you may think of putting the book down. You’ve read that one before. Probably because it’s true.

Don’t give up yet. While Adam stresses the importance of the basics, as so many books do with good reason, he (unlike many of the other books) doesn’t stop there. In fact, it’s only the first of nine principles.

In fact, the very next chapter is a real eye-opener. The four levels of wealth. When most people think of “rich,” they actually have very murky ideas as to what that means. However, in order to actually become rich (and we’re not talking lottery here), it is necessary to have a very clear idea of what “rich” really means.

And Adam’s four levels of wealth is priceless here. He differentiates between four levels, as the chapter says: financial stability, financial security, financial freedom, and financial abundance. When I read through that chapter, it was the first time I began to get a picture of what I really wanted. And I also began to understand why it had been so elusive.

The coolest thing about the chapter: together with the lists that were created in the previous chapter, Adam guides you to create a financial plan to achieve your desired level of financial abundance, complete with work sheets. It seems so much more doable once it has been taken out of the realm of vague wishes to concrete plan and what it will take to achieve it. Now if that’s not motivational, I don’t know what is.

And he doesn’t just leave you with this dream, only to refer you to his high-priced coaching program like so many other gurus. No, he delivers the exact how-to right here in this book.

In fact, the very next chapter gets you going on that very path: How to massively increase your income. Again, with detailed worksheets and examples, he helps you make plans and actually implement them. From changing your mindset from thinking about your value rather than time put in, to very specific ways in which you can increase your value to your employer, almost no matter what you do. And he makes it sound so easy.

Next, he provides numerous ways to maximize and increase income in just about any career. And that’s even before he gets to creating multiple income streams online.

That chapter, on how to create those multiple streams of income online, is worth many times over the price of this book alone. To say it was excellent and comprehensive would be an understatement. I really wish I had read this book about a couple of years ago, or even five or ten years ago. It would have changed my life dramatically.

But as they say, better late than never.

So what makes this chapter so special? If you have tried to make money online, you probably have been bombarded with must-have offers and have spent thousands trying to learn how to do it. The problem, the vast majority of people have been left utterly confused, intimidated, and especially broke.

This chapter cuts through the smoke and mirrors of the online marketing world and provides a basic but highly effective plan for people to get online, set up their online business, and yes, make money. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read it. It’s so clearly explained. I have paid people thousands for this information, and Adam’s book helped me fill in some crucial gaps the others have conveniently left out.

While it provides outstanding information on how to select a market, how to find or create products to sell to them, how to sell them, and how to help the market find your offers, there are a couple of small points that aren’t entirely up-to-date anymore.

The online world changes very quickly, and especially the way Google ranks websites. So Adam’s recommendation for keyword density would have to be taken with a grain of salt. However, if you don’t know what I’m talking about, don’t worry. The rest is so good that if you take the steps he recommends and also interact on the web, by the time you get to the keyword issue, you’ll know how to find updated information. And chances are, that this downloadable book will have been updated by the time you’ll get your hands on it.

Next, Adam goes into more depth about other millionaire habits, including keeping track of the money and not spending it frivolously. Once again, his book reads like your basic financial advisor handbook: stay away from credit cards, spend responsibly, and so on.

However, that seemingly conservative approach doesn’t extend to investing. In the following chapters, Adam shows how to invest safely yet with impressive returns. And over several chapters, he gives you such an outstanding guide to investing, including how to pick stocks, I was tempted to get started on the spot.

Finally, he wraps it all up by helping you design your very own Millionaire road map.

Once again, numerous worksheets guide you along, and by the time you’re finished, it’ll be just a matter of getting yourself in action.

Overall, an outstanding book. It promises a lot in its title, and while most of the other books with similar titles leave much to be desired, Adam’s book lives up to the first of the Millionaire Secrets: not only does it live up to even the kind of exaggerated expectations a book with this title might inspire, but it exceeds them.
