Fast forward to today...
It is 2 days after the National Achievers Congress held at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Center. Close to 3000 eager participants had two full days of power packed learning from an assembly of the best speakers, trainers and strategist from around the world.
First up was Steven Colmar, who’s topic was Real Estate Money. He teaches from a personal results based platform, and by using his own advanced and creative strategies was able to, in just 3 years, secure over 40 properties, settling 26 of these to a value of over USD10 million by himself and through various partnerships.
Now a proud owner of a bank, he has very generously agreed with Richard Tan (top pic), CEO of Success Resources, to teach his cutting edge strategies to Success Resources' NAC graduates absolutely FREE of Charge! Thank you Steven and Richard. This is amazing and I'll be seeing you both there on the 3rd of May 2008.

Next up was Roger Hamilton, Founder and CEO of XL Results foundation, (this pic). Now, in his retirement he has committed himself to a vision of World Wide Wealth: studying and teaching the concept of making money to give away. He spoke on
Your Life, You Legacy; The 5 Keys. Roger is the creator of
Wealth Dynamics, a powerful wealth profiling system that enables individuals to determine their wealth profile; the path of least resistance to wealth. He also heads one of the largest entrepreneurs networks in the world of which I am a part of. Members of note include billionaire, Mark Victor Hansen of Chicken Soup for the Soul series fame and Eric Edmeades a Canadian
entrepreneur, author and an inspiring professional speaker and consultant now turned philanthropist.
Steve Linder (bottom pic) came on next, speaking on 7 steps to achieving Performance. Among others, Steve is an NLP Master Practitioner and a Master Time Line Therapy Practitioner and Trainer. He has used these skills to go from waiter to Vice President of E*TRADE, Bank of America. His, is a story that says, "if I can do it, so can you!" You are an inspiration and a true model of success.


The final speaker of day 1 was none other than Blair Singer (second last pic), Rich Dad Advisor and Founder of Sales Partners Worldwide, an international training franchise that delivers guaranteed success strategies that have helped thousands of individuals and businesses increase their income through building championship teams and sales. Blair is the author of 2 best selling books: SalesDogs and the ABC's of How to Build A Business Team That Wins which are part of the Rich Dad Advisors series that includes Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki who incidentally will be the featured speaker at next year's NAC, the 17th installation.
The final event of the day was a Cocktail Reception hosted by Roger Hamilton's XL Results Foundation where he spoke on XL's Vision 2020; World Wide Wealth.
I finally enrolled as a member of this elite network after a 2 year plus wait. One Clap! Success!!
The following morning's events kick started with the ever green Joe Girard. Joe went from living in poverty in Detroit to becoming the no. 1 salesman in the world for 12 consecutive years selling 13001 brand new cars as attested by the Guiness Book of World Records! Wow!!
His topic was "How to Sell anything to anybody." Joe is an awesome motivational speaker and a best selling author of numerous books. This video clip is a testament to his salesmanship as well as his showmanship.
His passion, his undying and unrelenting determination and his hunger for success and achievement was second to non. His persona and zest for life is just amazing. You are the perfect person to model, Joe. I Love You , Joe!!
From Zero to Millionaire, T. Harv Eker was due next and he got everyone in the auditorium roaring for success and singing to his tune with his unique style. Eker, who is the best selling author of 'Secrets of the Millionaire Mind' and 'Speed Wealth' spoke about 'The psychology of Success.' He teaches how to reset your money blueprint to win the money game.
Harv did the nearly unthinkable when he invited ALL, and I repeat that, ALL of the nearly 3000 participants to attend his 'Millionaire Mind Intensive' between 23rd - 25th May at absolutely no cost at all... YUP! Absolutely FREE of Charge!! He says this is his way of giving back to society because he wants to see that each and everyone of us there at NAC to become Rich and Successful. WOW!! I am definately looking forward to this event :)
Adam Ginsberg came on next and delivered his 'Secrets of an auction Millionaire' talk about how to buy, sell and make a fortune on eBay. His unique selling strategy of combining scarcity and a 'countdown timer' ensured that most of the seats for his forthcoming seminar in August was almost sold out before he even finished his delivery.
Last but certainly not least on came "Gapping up.. up, up and away..." Dr. Clemen Chiang who made his fortune from Options Trading and Investing and is now empowering people to do like wise through his 'Live Freely' Seminars. The effectiveness of his 'Freely Method' have been featured on Channel News Asia, The Business Times, The Savvy Investor and many other highly regarded financial publications.
At last years NAC, Dr. Chiang made a prediction concerning the decline of the U.S. economy and a global recession due to hit in 2009. Currently the U.S. is already in recession and he unveiled statistics to prove that we are well on our way to facing one of the toughest times in this modern era. His advice? "If you're not in one of these 12 industries, get into them!" What are they?
Here they are:
1) Biomedical Sciences and Health Care
2) Chemicals
3) Clean Energy
4) Education Services
5) Electronics
6) Engineering and Environmental Services
7) Emerging Industries
8) Headquarters and Professional Services
9) Info Communications and Media
10) Logistics
11) Precision Engineering
12)Transport Engineering
The data speaks for itself. Don't say you haven't been warned!
Overall, NAC was yet again an event filled with new learning, ideas, possibilities, connections and the plain old 'pump me up' motivation and inspiration that we all need from time to time. I certainly feel my value as a person has increased. I know for a fact that I have raised my networking platform by becoming a member of XL.
Did I spend any money? What do you think? I went there telling myself not to sign up for any more courses...
What I can say is, I invested in my future.
And to me, this is money well spent.
