Paul McKenna - Review of 'I Can make you RICH'

Do you want to make more money? Do you want to improve the quality of your life? Do you believe you can be rich? What if it was easier than you think?

I like Paul McKenna in that I find him understated yet effective and successful. I assume therefore that he's learned a number of skills worth exploring! I also discovered that in my ever growing book collection, with the exception of 'The National Wealth: Who own what in Britain' I didn't have any books on wealth.

(I also have a belief that reading books is not an activity that makes people financially rich)

So I read Paul's book with interest.





What's in it!

A forward by Richard Branson commenting:

"But becoming rich isn't about piling up the money. Far from it. To be successful these days, you need to be rich in happiness friendship, health and ideas.....this book offers real insights into the worlds of those who've achieved success....it is one of the most original books I've seen about wealth."

An introduction on how to use the system

Part 1, The psychology of wealth

• Getting rich is an inside job
• Transforming your relationship with money
• Reprogramming your wealth thermostat
• Overcoming emotional spending
• Tapping into the flow of wealth
• Creating a rich vision

Part 2, Lets go make money

• How to make money
• Assembling your wealth team
• A proven formula for success
• The simplest business plan in the world
• The three skills that lead to riches (Networking, marketing and selling)
• The secrets of living rich

The book also includes a hypnotic CD and about 40 really good exercises that support the chapters.

What do I think?

Its worth having one book on becoming rich. This is straightforward, contains a lot of good sense and its worth working through the exercises. Its also a useful book for those that coach others on the topic.

What particularly did I learn from it?

To work more on my wealth team!

NLP Hypnosis book - Monsters and magical sticks

Monsters and magical sticks - There's no such thing as hypnosis? by Steven Heller and Terry Steele.

Probably my favorite hypnosis book after TRANCE-formations,




Qu0ting from the last paragraph gives a sense of the approach:

"Last, but not least, I do not believe that any book (or perhaps more so) this one, can replace getting in there and trying new things. So many of us are afraid that we might make a mistake, or our client / patient may not like us. In truth we're not getting paid to be liked, and our clients don't know what is going to work for them or not. I invite you, no implore you, to attempt what you have read and more. Each day do something unexpected in your practice (and your life); change chairs, change clothes, change!! Use a new technique. You will probably become more effective. I know it will keep you challenged, excited and happier and, please remember, there's no such thing as hypnosis."

This is NOT strictly an NLP book being more about Ericksonian hypnosis however its really good for:

• Everyday hypnosis / learnings
• Reality!?
• Unconscious vs conscious
• Utilisation
• Accessing cues
• Belief systems
• Patterns
• Pattern Interupts
• Anchors

Go on enjoy buying it NOW!

PPI Business NLP - Audo seminars - where next?

NLP teleseminars - Review and next step:

What worked

• It's a good way to demonstrate the 'mechanics*' of NLP approaches and techniques
• Clients exploring typical opportunities and challenges can give listeners genuine insights and choices in dealing with their own opportunities

*NLP is a lot more than mechanics. However an exploration of NLP building blocks and mechanics can give a useful indication of what's possible.

What could be improved

• The audio quality
• It's not practical (and often NOT useful for the client) to position and explain all thats going on. This may be confusing for listeners.
• A demonstration takes the time it takes - which can be too long for a casual listener

Conclusion

• The meduim has the potential to be a powerful meduim to introduce NLP concepts to a wider audience at low investment
• It adds to the current range of NLP type services currently available
• It is an addition to rather than a replacement to face to face training and coaching

What's next

My plan is to produce a short eBook which enable me to position NLP approaches together with a brief chapter on each of the building blocks. Each chapter will have a short audio file discussing with a client what they've got out it, together with a longer file with the recording of the actual session.

This covers all the points above.

It is anticipated that the Chapters will include:

• Positioning - what, why, who and how
• Values and outcomes,
• State and anchors
• From clean questions to hypnotic language
• Rapport
• Timeline
• Beliefs
• Modelling
• Where next

The eBook and audio files will be available for download. It is anticipated that the project will be complete by the end of December 2007.

In the meantime as an alternative to the current teleseminar I'm offerering free 30 minute 1:1 sessions (unrecorder), subject to diaries. Drop me an email with NLP 1:1 in the heading if you're interested in persuing this.

However we will also continue with the current teleseminars, subject to a minimum of five people booking them.

What I'm looking for:

Individuals who have an opportunity they would like to explore using an NLP approach. The call will be recorded and subject to us both agreeing and the individual confirming his agreement in writing the recording will be used as above.

What's in it for you?

• Access to high quality NLP coaching
• Free access to all the (agreed) material produced as past of the project
• Full recognition and contact details in the resulting eBook, and the satisfaction of contributing to a worthwhile and fun project
• The opportunity to sell the resulting material on your web site for a 50% affiliate fee

Give me, Michael, a call on 01908 506563, or drop me a note with NLP in the title to michaelbeale@ppimk.com if you would like to discuss.

NLP Benefits to professional and business people - Project

NLP Benefits - Project

While I've my own ideas on the benefits to NLP to business and professional people (we've a series of case studies from our own delegates ) However I'm planning to spend time talking to people about their experience. The output will be a 10-15 minute podcast for each discussion and my own summary in an eBook.

The objective is to help people who may be interested in NLP to decide genuinely whether its for them or not and give some additional pointers and choices of how they can get the most value and also what can hinder them or get in their way.

I'm interested in talking to anyone with real experience and would be happy to include anyone who didn't think they got value from any training, as well as those that did.

I'm also particularly interested in how NLP has helped people develop in their existing career, helped them develop new but similar career, move to something totally new and/or to become an NLP trainer or coach. And what else was important in helping them be successful.

For the sake of this project I'm defining NLP as the exploration of communication, thinking and change skills with particular regard to attitude, modelling what works and testing and using the resultant techniques. A key approaches is about giving people options and choice.

The specific questions asked will agreed beforehand but are expected to follow the following outline

• Give a brief introduction of yourself and what you do
• What experience do you have of NLP
• How has it helped you (or not)? With particular regard to:

1. Your existing career
2. Building on your current career
3. Moving to something totally new
4. Becoming an NLP trainer or coach
5. What else helped you be successful?

• What specifically do you differently now
• What advice would you give anyone with a possible interest in NLP?
• What advice would you give anyone who has just finished an NLP Training?

What do you get out of it if you choose to take part?

• A chance to clarify your thinking and experience
• An opportunity to express yourself to a wider audience
• An opportunity to help others in making a decision about NLP

Interested in taking part? give me a call or drop me an email with NLP in the title to info@ppimk.com

The Wild Days, NLP 1972-1981

The Wild Days, NLP 1972-1981

A colleague lent me 'The Wild Days' NLP 1972-1981 by Terrence L. McClendon and I highly recommend this easy and quick to read book to anyone who wants to connect to the 'spirit' of NLP.

Quoting Richard Bandler in the forward "That spirit is basically the belief that anything is possible, and its the human mind that makes it so.....

...Grinder and I never accepted what most people assumed about the limits of human beings anyway. We always felt that humans were capable of much more excellence, creativity and success than most people believed.."

The book is McClendon's personal account of the historical development of Neuro Linguistic Programming, and its two key developers Richard Bandler and John Grinder.

It records the development of the early techniques, modelling of Fritz Pearls, Viginia Satir and Milton Erickson and the unique and different contribution of the two founders.

The book also emphasises that NLP is NOT the techniques it produced. It is much more about attitude and modelling itself.

And the book itself is full of useful metaphors about NLP.

You can still buy second hand versions from Amazon in the UK
