Empowering teens with the mindset and tools to achieve success in school and in life is one topic I am extremely passionate about. As a previous underachieving teen and student myself, I understand how tough it is to grow up nowadays. Teens face peer pressure, nagging parents, unreasonable teachers, stress, demands to perform well, make friends etc…

I have specially created this book to help teens to achieve success and happiness in all the areas of their life: their studies, their social lives, relationship with parents and personal peak performance.

Here are some of the highlights:

- Discovering the Power to Take Charge of Your Life
- How to Handle and Overcome Tough Challenges
- How to Get Along With Parents & Win them Over
- How to Make Friends and Be Popular
- Dealing with Peer Pressure & Nasty Friends
- The Ways to Overcome Laziness & Motivate Yourself
- Loving Yourself and Boosting Your Self-Confidence
- The Secret of Acing Your Exams with Minimal Effort

Look out for it in all major bookstores or visit Secrets Of Successful Teens for more details.

Now what you want in your life will determine your strategies, your actions, and your beliefs will also determine what you will do when you fail. Do you trigger it as feedback or do you give up? You see, your beliefs are like the operating system of your brain. They determine how we perceive the world and how we respond to what happens. They determine what we will or will not do or what we will or will not try.

So if you have disempowering beliefs about yourself, your business, or your relationships for example, then the actions you take will be negative and unuseful. Which then causes your business or relationship to FAIL. Which then solidifies your original disempowering belief! And the cycle goes on…

On the flip side, the same is true for empowering beliefs! If you have positive beliefs about yourself, your business, and your relationships, you will take useful and positive action to grow your business or to treat your partner with more love. Which will most likely cause your business to succeed even further and your relationship to blossom some more. Which then solidifies your originals EMPOWERING belief! And the cycle goes on…

Are you starting to see how POWERFUL your beliefs are?

They hold the KEY to your success and happiness. The question is now:

1. How do you break out of negative beliefs and thought patterns?
2. And then how do you create empowering beliefs that will help you achieve your goals?

This post is dedicated to one of my students who I am truly proud of! He is the typical example of how anyone , regardless or age and experience can realize their dreams if they simply just use the right strategies and take massive action. His name is Adam Wong.

Eight years ago, I was invited to give a talk at one of the Singapore polytechnics about achieving success in life to 500 final year students. At the end of my talk was a Q&A session. After replying to lots of typical questions from students, one student raised his hand to ask the final question of the day. On that fateful day, Adam Wong asked the question, ‘ Mr. Khoo, will you be my personal mentor?’

Now, at that time, I could not possibly say ‘no’ in front of 500 students looking on. I would have looked like a real ass! So I said ‘yes’, thinking that he probably wasn’t serious anyway. To my surprise, Adam Wong (AW) called me numerous times to allow him to come see me to ask questions about what to do with his life.

He asked me all sorts of questions like: ‘how do I get started?’ ‘how do I build confidence?’ ‘How do I make my first million?’ ‘How do I set myself apart?’. After answering as much as I could, I told him that if he really wanted to learn all my strategies, then he should sign up for my PATTERNS OF EXCELLENCE program. Sure enough, he borrowed the few thousand from his parents and attended the entire program. At the end of it, he even borrowed more money to attend my Wealth Academy program in 2005.

What really impressed me about AW was that after the programs, he took massive action and applied everything I taught him, He did not hesitate at all. He decided that he did not want to get stuck in a normal 9am-5pm job like everyone else and eventually decided that he would become an entrepreneur as an Internet Marketer. Most important, he was willing to pay the price.

When he applied himself whole heartedly, the results he got were truly inspiring. Within two weeks of launching his business, he generated US$10,011 worth of sales. Within a year and a half, he hit a record US$21,154 a month in December. He continued to build his online business until today, it generates a six figure income while he just works four hours a day from his home.

All his friends call him a LUCKY BASTARD to have such a great life with a great income. So, he decided to write a book (which honestly is a VERY GOOD READ) to teach people exactly how he did it and how anyone can achieve the same success he has on the Internet.

Although I will say that AW is a LUCKY BASTARD, he created his own luck! I believe we all create our own luck through the choices we make and the actions we take. The harder you work, the luckier you get. 8 years ago, in that polytechnic class of 500 students, anyone of them could have been the lucky one to be mentored by me. They ALL had the same opportunity. What made AW lucky was that he took action on the opportunity.

Here is a chance for you to download the first chapter FREE and see how great his book really is. So go and create your own luck by grabbing opportunities whenever they come!!!!

May 2009 be awesome for you!

The ‘I Am Gifted!’ Programme was first created by Adam Khoo who was inspired to share with students the winning attitudes and learning strategies he had used to transform himself from an underachieving teenager to among the top 1% of academic achievers in the National University of Singapore.

As one of the pioneers in the NUS’s Gifted Program (known as the Talent Development Programme- TDP), Adam realized that being gifted was not just an in-born trait reserved for a privileged few. By studying the habits of ‘gifted students’ and through his research in Neuroscience, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Multiple Intelligence, Adam discovered that every child had the potential to achieve extraordinary results with the right encouragement, stimulation and learning methods.

‘I Am Gifted’ reflects the belief that all children are born gifted. All children have within them god-given gifts of learning, self-expression, leadership, creativity and so on. The ‘I Am Gifted’ programme was specially designed to fully nurture these gifts within each child.

Although the ‘I Am Gifted’ was officially launched in 2002, the seeds for this life transformational programme were planted way back 18 years ago in 1990. At the age of 16, Adam started writing and distributing articles on memory building techniques, self-motivation and speed-reading skills etc among his friends with eagerness to help them improve their grades. His articles were even published in Teenage Magazine. By the age of 23, he was already engaged by many top schools (including Raffles Institution, the former Chinese High School and Victoria Junior College) to prepare their students for the National Examinations.

A year later at the age of 24, Adam made news headlines when his first book “I Am Gifted, So Are You!™” topped the National Best Sellers list, beating international titles like ‘7 Habits of Highly Effective People’. ‘ I Am Gifted, So Are You!’ was also endorsed by learning expert Tony Buzan, the inventor of Mind Mapping™.

In 2002, Adam roped in NLP Trainer & Counselor, Stuart Tan to launch the ‘I Am Gifted’ Programme. Stuart, like Adam is one of the Singapore Educational System’s Success Stories. A Slow Starter, he was particularly a very shy boy and a weak student. However, through various personal development courses, he became a top student in his class at SJI and President of his Junior College’s student council.

Today, Stuart is an NUS graduate (majoring in psychology and linguistics), a Master NLP Trainer, a Certified Counselor, author of five books and a Champion Toast Master Speaker. The ‘I Am Gifted Team’ was soon joined by Brain-Based Teaching expert Gary Lee. Gary was also another former average student who went on to top his class at St. Andrews School and graduated from the National University of Singapore, thereby becoming one of the few Asians to be certified in Brain-Based Teaching by leading brain researcher Eric Jensen.

In Adam’s own words, “We realized that there were a lot of kids out there, who, like us had the potential to become successful but lacked role models who would give them the confidence, right mindsets and effective strategies to realize their gifts. Although there were a lot of student enrichment programmes around, many were taught by foreigners who had little understanding of the Singapore educational system or were taught by ex-teachers who sometimes could not connect with average and underperforming students.

This is what inspired us to create the ultimate personal development programme to address the needs of all kids of students: from the top achievers to the under performers.

Over the last seven years, the ‘I Am Gifted’ programe has gone on to empower the lives of over 330,000 students and 15,000 parents in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, India, China, Hong Kong and Thailand.

We have also been proud to be constantly engaged by the Ministry of Education (MOE) in Singapore and Hong Kong, the Movement for the Intellectually Disabled (MINDS), Singapore Prison School, SINDA and the Chinese Development Assistance Council (CDAC). With such overwhelming support from the public, it has now become Asia’s Leading Academic and Life-Skills based Personal Development Programme.

In 2008, The ‘I Am Gifted’ programme will be launched for the very first time in Holland, reinforcing the fact that it truly is a Singaporean brand spreading across the globe.
