A Prisoner Driven by A Dream
I would like to share a very special letter that I received a few months ago. It is a very special letter because it was sent to me by Mohamad Ali, who is currently serving time at the Tanah Merah prison in Singapore.
In the letter he writes that has read my books (‘Secrets of Self Made Millionaires’, ‘Master Your Mind, Design Your Destiny’ and ‘Secrets of Millionaire Investors’) from the prison library. Incidentally, I found out from another inmate that there is a 3 month waiting list for my books (esp. I Am Gifted, So Are You!) in the prison. So recently, I donated a a couple of books to the prison department. My trainers also had the chance to go to the Singapore Prison Schools to teach the inmates NLP and to give them the skills to achieve good results for their ‘O’ Levels.
In the letter, Mohamad Ali says that he has been extremely inspired by what he has read and it has given him a strong sense of purpose to rebuild his life once he is released. He has set his goal to attend the Patterns of Excellence Programme and Wealth Academy. When he gets out. I am deeply touched by what I read. I wish Mohamed Ali all the best and look forward to meeting him when he is released.
The Letter Unedited:
Dear Mr Adam Khoo,
Eh, hi! A very good afternoon to you sir? How are you? I hope you are in a pink of health. The reason I’m writing this letter to you is that after reading your books Master Your Mind Design Your Destiny, Secrets Of Self-Made Millionaires and Secrets Of Millionaire Investors by far and large I am truly impressed by the contents.
The virtue of these books is that so much of what a novice needs to know is readily available. It’s easy to read, comprehensive insights is an excellent tool for those looking to get started in developing themselves to be a motivated person and highlights the business approach thats is crucial to the success of an individuals. In addition, the books managed to offer hands-on advise in a logical fashion on creating, marketing and managing wealths that will undoubtedly help newcomers create truly successful lifestyle. Much of this invaluable information thats has been incorporated into a books really provide the readers with a clear, detailed and practical approach to practise. Thank you so much for sharing this invaluable knowledge.
Henceforth, you are a dynamic success coach at present. You inspire, nurture and mtivate dreamers to become a winners. You lead by example and you are an inspiration to others. Your extensive and distinguished teaching methods puts you in a unique position that empower adults to achieve their individual goals. Congrats!
I am interested in attending your courses such as Patterns of Excellence, Wealth Academy and the Neuro-Linguistic Programming after my release from this institution to further enhance my soft skill and financial knowledge. Out of curiosity, could you kindly provide me with more information about the courses and its fees? Your reply is somewhat I’m waiting for. And I’m really looking forward to meet you in person so that I can learn many more things from you.
Isolation from others in a four-walled prison cell is that most severe form of punishment that I can mete out because as essentially human beings, I crave social interaction. Without connection to the outside world, I suffer spiritual death inside a crying body. This is the experience I describe as being unhappy. Could you offer me some words of wisdom or some words of advise that will guide me on my journey here to self-fulfillment, success and enlightenment? Your response really means somethings to me.
Last but not least, I hope you could continually have a successful kind of lifestyle and may you continue to produce all those kind of motivational camp for teenagers Malaysia and investment books. Until then, may God bless you, have a pleasant day and Good-bye!!!

Very inspiring!
While I was reading this post, I feel ashamed of what I have done before. I want to change something, but how could I change. Even if I know how to change, I always ask myself should I change no matter how tough situation I would face? I don’t know the reason. My biggest problem probably is procrastination. I always afraid of losing something that I already have. Shame on me!
Adams, I love all your letters. The truth you dont know is that I have found in you a father and a mentor. I never know any thing about internet business untill I took time to read some of the leters you sent to me since 2007. Now i am trying to pick up after all sets and down.
I love you MAN.
Your son in Business,
EDWARD FREEDOM.

I have read one of your books Secrets Of Self-Made Millionaires. It is a great book, very easy to understand and well written for both novice and seasoned investors. Keep up the good work Adam as you continue to inspire and share what God/Allah bestowed on you.
