Foreword

Following your dreams is never easy, but there's wisdom in the saying: “It’s the journey, not the destination that counts”. 

Nevertheless, people often give-up on pursuing their dreams for all sorts of reasons. Perhaps, they don't possess the skills or knowledge to persevere.

When I first met Barry Nicolaou, our connection was immediate. Barry has a certain indescribable presence about him that makes you feel simultaneously inspired and comfortable. So, when he requested me to publish his book, I was honoured to assist him.

I have written two books myself, and I have also had considerable input into a number of other published books, so I know the power of becoming a published author, as well as what that success can bring.

Barry’s book, "The 11 Master Secrets To Business Success & Personal Fulfillment" is absorbing and informative reading.

I recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quality reference book that provides intuitively appealing strategies and tools to initiate change, unlock their personal mission and reach their goals.

The book starts the journey off with a serious discussion about how to uncover your personal mission via a guided exploration of what you love to do. 

Barry then moves on to finding your own personal "why", providing the reader with an invaluable set of tools to help overcome the types of fears that paralyse so many of us.

He presents some great insights and strategies, which include taking an inventory of the five most influential people in your life as well as knowing the rules and when to break them.

All of the important things you need in your toolbox for success are covered in Chapter 9. One of my favourite chapters discusses the perils of excuses and procrastination, which is the major reason why many people will abandon their dreams. 

For me, one of Barry's key lessons in this book is: "What you think about, you bring about".

As Barry says:  "Playing it safe is an illusion anyway." I wish him all the best in his seminar, "Master Classes", which was derived directly from these chapters.  

I highly recommend Barry's book to anyone who wants to finally build and live a life they love. Make sure you take lots of notes!
