Mindset over Matter: How I used NLP & mentors to reach the dizzy heights of Internet success
Posted on 28. Jan, 2010 by Suraj in Internet Marketing, Random
When I first attended Chris Howard’s 3-day Breakthrough to Success seminar in London in August 2008, I had no idea what NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) was and had never really heard of the ‘personal development industry’. I had no idea how to use & implement the tools that I would learn by attending this event into my Internet marketing business – which are now priceless to me.
I arrived at the venue in London not knowing what to expect really. I had received an invite by email from a mailing list that I was subscribed to so I had registered about 6 weeks prior to the event. Didn’t think i’d stay for all three days, but wanted see what it was like anyway.
The 3-days that followed really blew me away – the content that was delivered by Chris and his team was really fascinating; the showcase of information; the sleek arrangement and running of the weekend by ThinkBIG Education (then ‘Christopher Howard Events’) and the really friendly crew members helping to run the event.
After attending the Breakthrough to Success event in London, I started reading more about wealth creation and personal development (I bought Chris Howard’s book at the event called Turning Passions Into Profits) and a number of other books that Chris and his amazing event crew had mentioned to me throughout the weekend (such as Think and Grow Rich, The Alchemist, Rich Dad Poor Dad). I had never really heard of these books before the event and didn’t realise how ‘big’ they were in this industry.
The weekend also gave me a great networking opportunity with around 1000 other people and I made some great contacts who ended up becoming clients and/or suppliers. Not bad going for a free event!
Throughout the weekend, I learnt things that I had never even heard of before such as Strategic Visioning and the Decision Destroyer process that Chris takes the participants through from stage. The key to all of my new learnings was that anything that I want to achieve and accomplish is down to my mindset and the way that I thought. I learnt new ways of thinking, new ways of asking questions and new ways of communicating. The best part of it all was that all these new learnings & skills were totally transferrable and I could use them all in my Internet marketing business, as well as in my personal day-to-day life.
The Breakthrough To Success London weekend seminar with Chris Howard was a fantastic eye-opener for me in many respects. Not only did I see this great speaker but I saw the way the event ran as a business, albeit as a participant and spectator. I knew at the end of day 1 that I wanted to learn more about this industry from a business point of view and wanted to get involved in helping to run the event, because the crew seemed to be having so much fun! Now, I work with ThinkBIG Education to run the events and get to spend a lot of time surrounded by great people who have become very good friends.
I will be at the next London Breakthrough to Success seminar which is on February 12-14 2010 at the Ibis Hotel in Earl’s Court.
