A special day for us all

Hi, Do you know what makes today a very special day? That's right ... it's a special day because it's a 'New' day and as such don't you think that is a good enough reason for us to celebrate it as being something special? It was interesting as last night I had some family over at my house and we were all talking about the week ahead. It was clear that some of us were looking forward to it, while others sounded as if it was going to be just another week of the same old thing. So it made me think - how can we all bring something new and fresh into our life every single day? I think it simply boils down to making the decision to do so. I know that many people will think, but I'm so busy - I couldn't possibly fit anything else into my already hectic and planned schedule!!! Just remember that the something new doesn't take a lot of time, even a few minutes could bring the freshness back. Another way is by doing the same thing but in a different way. Think about it, have you started to plan what meals you are going to make this week? If so, how many of these culinary creations are going to be something that you haven't made before? ... or will it be your tried and tested recipes? Or do you always drive to the same destination using the same route? ... how about shaking things up a bit!! Even by changing a little thing can make things feel new and exciting. "Do something. If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't, do something else." Franklin D. Roosevelt Well today I am busy getting prepared for our next NLP Practitioner course which starts on Saturday up in Glasgow. I am so excited as I've already had some new ideas on things I'm going to add to the course to give even more value to the students and keep the whole course constantly evolving. Many people ask me, if I get bored delivering the same course every time? My answer is that it's never the same course every time, as it's the students who make each course different and really how can anybody get bored of seeing people achieving fanastic personal changes and breaking through things that are holding them back. So take a moment to made your choice - what present are you going to give yourself today and each day going forward, to help celebrate and make the most of each new day? Have a fantastic week!!

What's the secret to achieving Results?

Hi, Monday is here and I am sure this message has already put a nice smile on your face. I'm sure you're wondering, 'what words of wisdom is Osmaan going to share with me today, which will keep me motivated and inspire for the rest of the week?'. Well the dose of inspiration for this week focuses upon something so simple, yet so effective - it's all about taking action to create the results in your life. These results can be anything you want, including: Taking more time out of your life to continue to grow and develop yourself further; Spending more time with those who are important to you and having fun; Starting a new hobby; Increasing your business results; Gaining freedom by letting go of things that have been holding you back in your life for a while; .... the list could go on and on..... The most important thing is that your goal has to be your own goal, which you can then truly own. "Genius is one percent inspiration, ninety-nine percent perspiration." Thomas A. Edison (1847 - 1931) You will know from your own experience, that by going forward a goal that you are passionate about, will mean that whatever action you need to take in order to make it happen - whether it be physically, mentally, emotionally or financially - it won't seem like much effort at all. So you know what I am going to suggest to you now. When was the last time that you have really set yourself or re-focused upon your own big, meaty and meaningful goal, which you are going to do everything within your power to drive forward? Well it's Monday and a Monday is a perfect day to stop and take a few minutes to do that right now, don't you think? Have another fantastic week.

Some optimism for March

Written by Osmaan Sharif

Monday, 02 March 2009 00:00

Hi,

Well March has come to join us now, so come on and let’s give it a big warm welcome.

I am a firm believer that some of the best lessons in life come to us when you least expect them. Well for our weekly dose of inspiration to kick start us into the new month; I will share with you a nice quote that I came about yesterday.

Let me start by setting the scene and by painting a picture for you. Well it’s only 40 days now until I get married, so as I’m sure you can imagine, most of my ‘free’ time at the moment is being spent organising, planning and shopping for not just one day but three days of fun and celebrations! This weekend was no exception, as I was down in London and found myself walking up and down the many delightful streets of clothes and jewellery shops with my fiancée, who was busily scoring things off our ‘to-do’ list, whilst adding even more things onto the bottom of it.

I imagine that if you are the type of person who loves shopping, that you are sitting there with a nice pleasant smile on your face at the thought of my weekend activities or if you don’t like shopping so much, then you may be feeling like you’d like to escape from the image that is in your mind J.

Well after what must have been the fourth or fifth jewellery shop we visited yesterday, my feet were getting a bit sore and I started to hear the shutters on the shops around us being pulled down and I sensed the excitement that our shopping trip was soon coming to a close. As we were paying for the last purchases in the last shop of the day, I looked above the till point and my eyes fell onto a well positioned sign that sat just above the display point, which instantly made me step back and then smile for the rest of the day.

So go on and ask yourself for this new month ahead and beyond, what are you going to be optimistic about and then instantly see how you feel as a result of making that one simple choice.

Have another great week.

Kind regards

Osmaan

What makes a champion?

Hi,

Did you have a great weekend? Well it's time again to kick start the new week ahead!!!

We have been having an action packed weekend in Glasgow, working with a number of students on our NLP Coaching & Time Line Therapy Practitioner course - with the fun continuing for the next two days on the Hypnosis Practitioner course too!!!

This week, I have selected our inspirational quotation from someone who has achieved some amazing results in their life - which I am sure we can all learn from.

"Champions aren't made in the gym.

Champions are made from something they have deep inside them

- a desire, a dream, a vision."

Muhammed Ali

So come on - take a few minutes now to ask yourself, what are your desires, dreams and visions? Are you doing everything you can to make it happen? If not, then when would now be the best day to decide to do something different?

Have a fantastic week !!!!

All the best

Think about it ... what do you want?

Hi,

Welcome to another Monday!!! I hope that you had a good weekend? Was the postman kept busy delivering cards and gifts to you :) ?

Well it's time again to offer you a dose of inspiration to add a sprinkling of magic to the week ahead!!!

"The first step to getting the things you want out of life is this:

Decide what you want!"

Ben Stein

So let's keep it simple this week and get focused on either our short term or long term goals.

Take a moment to ask yourself, do you really know what you want out of the different areas of your life, including your personal goals; business/career; relationships; health & fitness or finances?

Also remember that last week we announced our exciting new Breakthrough From Within weekend seminar, where you can come and join us for 2 days to really get focused on what you want out of life and more importantly actually do something to make it happen. We still have places available for our upcoming Breakthrough From Within weekend on Saturday 28th February & Sunday 1st March in Glasgow!!!

Have a fantastic week !!!!

All the best

Exciting News - Breakthrough From Within Workshop Launched

Written by Osmaan Sharif

Monday, 09 February 2009 00:00

Hi,

Well here we are again on a brand new Monday!!! What exciting things will the week ahead bring for you?

First of all, let me start by sharing some exciting news!!! I didn't think it was at all possible, however today we are even more excited than usual - as we announce the launch our brand new NLP Introduction weekend workshop - Breakthrough From Within!!

Finally we are giving you the chance to become even more inspired and to take control, by dedicating some time out to really focus on No.1 - YOU!!! We will share with you a number of tools and techniques from the world of NLP and coaching, so you can finally find out what all the fuss is about, by getting to actually see and experience it in action. You will begin to really uncover and focus upon what you are wanting to achieve in different areas of your life, and more importantly breakthrough any internal barriers that could be holding you back.

Think about it for a moment, how many times have you felt that there is just something that is stopping you from reaching your full potential or are you feeling increasingly frustrated or less positive by some of the current challenges you face? Also, would you like to test the water by gaining an introduction to NLP, without committing yourself to the full Certified NLP Practitioner course? Well now you can choose to do something about it!!!

The real beauty of the Breakthrough From Within workshop, is that you can choose what area of your life you wish to breakthrough at the weekend (including Personal; Wealth; Business/Career; Relationships; Health & Fitness or Education).

The first of our Breakthrough From Within workshops will be taking place in less than 3 weeks in Glasgow on Saturday 28th February and Sunday 1st March.

We will then be in Manchester on Saturday 16th & Sunday 17th May; Edinburgh on 20th & 21st June and London on 22nd & 23rd August. Further dates and locations will be added soon.

As an introductory special offer, we are currently offering our Breakthrough From Within weekend workshop for only £129 + VAT, compared to the full price of £299 + VAT!!!!

What's even more, if you wish to also share the experience with someone else who is important to you, whether it be your partner, family member, friend or colleague, you can get the second place for half price (£64.50 + VAT)!!!

Book now to guarantee your place!!!

If that's not enough, we are so confident that you will benefit from attending the workshop, that we are willing to offer you a 100% no-quibble money back guarantee!!! So really what do you have to loose?

I will leave you with our weekly dose of inspiration coming this week from Oprah Winfrey:

"You are what you are by what you believe"

Have a fantastic week !!!!

All the best

A snowy start to February

Written by Osmaan Sharif

Monday, 02 February 2009 00:00

Hello,

Are you looking forward to getting in touch with your nice childhood memories by braving the cold and going outside to build a snowman today? What a different way to start our week and to mark the arrival of February, don't you think?

Sticking on the theme of weather, our thought for this week comes from some words of wisdom that were shared by one of our previous NLP Practitioner students, at a business networking event that I attended on Friday.

Let me ask you a question - with us in this stormy and changing business & economic climate at the moment, if you had to make a choice out of the following 2 options to continue to thrive in all areas of your life - which one would you choose?

a) To build a big strong shelter to keep you safe & protected?

or

b) To build a big strong shelter to keep you safe & protected AND build a big windmill on top of it?

It makes you think doesn't it? You may be hearing from many people around you, including your family, friends and colleagues about how things are tough at the moment and many of them may be frozen by their fear. However, remember we always have a choice - even in the most challenging of situations.

How are you going to adapt and get the best out of today and also build for your future? The smartest answer would be to keep thinking outside the box and challenging your comfort zones, whilst also building your own windmill to help generate personal resources and inner-power to get you towards your successes.

I'll leave you to ponder on that for a while.

Have a fantastic week !!!!

All the best

Osmaan

P.S - We still have a few places available for our upcoming NLP Practitioner course starting in London on Saturday. Call us today to book yourself a place where you can really start to build your windmill!!!

Congratulations NLP Master Practitioner Students!!!
