Product Description

From the Inside Flap
Isn′t the playing field the same for everyone?
How can ordinary people break away from the pack?
Why do some people enjoy phenomenal success in everything they do?
In Turning Passions into Profits, Chris Howard, a leading authority on personal influence and effectiveness, helps readers break through boundaries to achieve wealth and power. He gives eye–opening insight into the playing field and the rules of the game of life, and provides innovative techniques and concrete tools for expanding the playing field, rewriting the rules, and winning the game.
Each individual′s personal rule book is based on learned behavior and personal experiences that shape his or her perspectives. Turning Passions into Profits helps readers recognize and overcome their stifling, self–imposed rules and limitations and move toward a more fulfilling and rewarding future.
"Change your focus and take charge of your life" is Howard′s mantra. He provides actionable techniques to get readers on the fast track from today′s frustrating status quo to tomorrow′s infinite possibilities. This inspiring, empowering book includes thought–provoking exercises to complete and strategies to incorporate into every facet of life, including Creation Technologies, modeling, Strategic Visioning, building teams and rapport, and communicating with power. Readers learn about six hallmarks of powerful communications that influence people and special techniques to inspire confidence.
For years, Howard has studied the lives and characteristics of a diverse group of people, some from quite ordinary backgrounds, who became extraordinarily successful, including Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Warren Buffett, Donald Trump, Rupert Murdoch, Oprah Winfrey, and Nelson Mandela. He zeroes in on common characteristics and shares his insight to help readers learn from and emulate the strategies of the masters.
Turning Passions into Profits is part practical, part philosophical, and all–powerful. It′s not a one–time read; it′s a lifetime reference for those who want to quickly close the gap between where they are and where they want to be.
Before it was proven that the world was round, it was a well-known "fact" that it was flat. Read the first page

Customer Reviews
I have personally used his approach to 'Genius Reading' titles on individuals I wished to model aspects of, and have guided many of my clients to taking the same approach. Most of them were so intrigued that they wanted to know a little more - and many now own the book themselves.
If you have read much on NLP, Rapport building, etc (by Tony Robbins or others for example), then some of the material will be re-enforcing. If however, you have never covered these topics, then this will be a good introduction.
One area that Chris could have been a little more explicit on is providing the reader with the specific questions they should be asking themselves when reading the material about the individuals they wish to model. He very clearly explains what you need to look for, yet there is still a subtle shift that the reader needs to make from knowing what to look for, to explicitly asking themselves the questions upfront to prime their subconscious mind for the exercises. (Chris could possibly have provided a list of questions for the reader to ask themselves).
eg Chris advises that we should look for the Individual's Meta-Programs (and gives a good explanation on what that is), however, what would really 'switch on' the sub-conscious is if the reader were to EXPLICITLY ask themselves up-front "What are [Warren Buffett's / Oprah's] Meta-Programs?" The mere act of asking the question outright, prepares the mind in advance for what to look for.
I DEFINITELY give this book the thumbs-up!
