Among a busy schedule in mentoring, delivering key note speeches, producing CD,  DVD & live training programs and giving press interviews, Kevin still manages to publish two books a year! He is true to his birthdate as a tireless, prolific producer and live up to his great reputation!

He’s highly disciplined, focused and productive.

The following is my book review submitted to Amazon just minutes ago:

Each of us has 168 hours a week. What we can make out of it is virtually all up to us. Kevin Hogan delivers a paint-by-the-number system for you to understand what works and what doesn’t to achieve what’s possible and desirable in your own life. All are based on scientific studies instead of personal bias from anyone. Procrastination is a big hurdle for many (including myself) to overcome. Kevin explains why it happens and how to resolve it.

The book is engaging, refreshing and empowering with his simple and effective explanations and actionable exercises which come from his mentoring program “Inner Circle”. I almost finish reading the entire book in one sitting.

Some of the most valuable points Hogan covers in the book are:

“For Time Management and Goal Achievement to work, environmental and contectual changes are REQUIRED.”

“Walk through the fire of of your feelings, experience the fear and live through the pain, however brief, and you will ultimately FEEL COMFORTABLE and FAMILIAR with all of the NEW ASPECTS of Life/Experience/Business/Relationship…. once you do THIS ONE THING … you conquer almost every challenge in life. Then all you really need is momentum.”

(This reminds me that out of all the success factors, the most important one is self-discipline – doing what you should do, no matter you feel like doing it or not.)

The cool success formula, as explained in the book, is “See, Believe, Begin, Continue, Finish”. Getting things DONE is what counts. Great results are only possible from crossing the finishing lines, not the starting lines

Replace your “To Do List” with “Get To Do List” to motivate yourself to move towards your goals and overcome procrastinations.

So get your copy NOW to read and act on to avoid unrewarding efforts. Get the benefits beyond your wildest dreams of doing the right stuff that matters in appropriate ways instead.

I use both to bring my knowledge in Pure Numerology presented in a better way and with better coverage to you all. The theme still bases on “Understanding Personality for Better Influence & Persausion”.

My new skills would further enhance the 3 “E”s in my personal branding motto: Enthusiastic, Ethical & Engaging.

Meantime, remember to check out my DAILY Numerology Expert Birthday Numeroscope and put it in your Google Reader. I’ve been posting daily on that blog and reduce posting here down to four times weekly.

Up to this day, however, I’ve been commenting DAILY in all my friends’ blog whenever they have a new one posted. They are all in my Google Reader for easy tracking, reading and commenting.

Because of my participation of the Professional Speakers’ course, I need to wind the reading & commenting down to minimum 4 times a week. So there’ll be some time delay. But rest assured that I would read thru’ every new blog post & comment every one of them.

Numerology Expert Helps Understanding Personality for Better Influence & Persuasion

Ok, I get your attention! Well, I’ll first round off the questions that flowed over from my previous post before I do an analysis on your beloved US President Obama tomorrow. This is The Age of Attention (Distraction), my blog need to trim down in size for ease of digestion. And good things take time. But now, you can help by telling me the ACCURATE birth date of your Obama.

To Duane Cunningham:

- I prefer to have my book “Numerology Made Pure & Simple” in hard copy while I retain the right ( NOT the sole right though) of selling the electronic version. I’m taking Kevin Hogan’s Writing Course later this year, so I’ll revaluate the situation as it progresses together with my book writing.

To jc mackenzie:

You say that Obama’s birth date is Oct 4 1961. But both Wikipedia and WikiAnswers says it’s August 4, 1961. So I’m confused as to which birth date is correct. Please clarify and confirm the DOB before I do the analysis. I am meticulous as the accuracy of birth dates as they are the basis of my analyses.

To Steve Chambers:

I welcome doubts about (Pure) Numerology (or ANYthing indeed) as fanaticism is dangerous and so is acceptance on face values. Suffice to say that there are many ways to skin a cat. The objective is to get the work done in a most effective and efficient way, but then it also depends on individual preference. It’s hard for anyone to “prove” the validity of Numerology. There’s not enough motivation behind to invest enormous resources to proof such a case.

Amazingly, subliminal video messages are eventually proved to be working, as reported by Kevin Hogan in his current Coffee issue with his new product launch. He wrote on Coffee issue dated 2/2 this year about “Subliminal Influence” too.

You become more engaged and interested once you hear your name is being mentioned. Your name is one of those magic words that others can use on you to influence your compliance to what they wants.

No wonder there is so much interest here when I discuss about the significance of your name(s). With Pure Numerology, what matters is your name most often called by the others, NOT your name printed on the birth certificate, NOR your formal name.

Just like JJ Jalopy said his wife seldom calls him JJ. So when she called him that way (“but you are JJ!”), it really lifted him up from doldrums. (This should have answered Christian Haller’s question: “So nicknames; what people call you, influences how you behave?”)

JC MacKenzie asks, “I have always been called JC but my name [which is known and understood by all who know me is Jack Charles…..so is a numerology evaluation for JC incomplete with that understanding?

JC, you are the same person in any situation. It’s just that different people have different perceptions and understanding of you. That understanding is quite often reflected and influenced subtly by the name they use to call you. Remember, personalities are our filters in seeing the world. To those who called you JC, you appear to be practical, down to earth, helpful and love to maintain your good name and reliability. Even though all know and understood you are “Jack Charles”, but HOW do most people call you? The answer to that question is THE key. We only use the name(s) MOST OFTEN called.

Words are more powerful than swords. We should choose our names carefully. When my son was born, he did not have a “5” from his birth date. So to give him balance (“5” is at the centre of the numerological chart), I choose the name Scott (1+3+6+2+2 = 14 = 1+4 = 5) which give him a “5” for him. The number of strokes of his first name in Chinese also adds up to 14 = 1+4 = 5. Perfect.

                                  _2_|_5_|_8_

                                    1  |  4 |  7

Your name is like a rudder, it channels your energy into certain directions even though it does not directly influence your character traits. We CANNOT read or assess a personality from his or her name.

Speaking of power of words, Kevin Hogan has an awesome 11-minute video on the Magic Words of Persuasion.
