   feedback from a parent:

Hello Rajan,
How have you been? We are OK. My daughter Prise, is studying hard for her 'O' s this year. We would like to inform you that Prise has gained much confidence after attending your NLP class. She blossomed. In fact for the last 2 months, she had quite a hectic schedule including emceeing on the occasion of the visit of the First Lady. On another time, she was the emcee when the Ag, Minister of State for Ed. dropped by for the official opening of the Balestier Hill Sec Sch. "project cabin". Last Sat. she was chosen as one of the announcers for the school speech day. Her Principal and teachers congratulated her on her fine performance. To top it all, she participated in the inter-school debate where the school won 2 of the 3 outings, finally losing to the finalist. She won 2 best speaker award in the process. Yesterday, she was officially conferred the 7th best overall best speaker of the 'C' division interschool debate, with schools like ACS, St. Margaret, Tg Katong etc. in this group. She is over the moon, her best accolade till date. There maybe more to come. Let's wait and see.
Thanks and regards,
Tony Ho Yuen Seng April  2004

What Past Participants Say...
I am Gina, a  former student of Dare To Excel(2004). I found the course highly empowering and motivating. Before joining this programme, I was generally an introvert, with low self esteem.  I  have now totally changed my self esteem and have become a positive and happy person. I now know that I have been held back by my own limiting beliefs. Mr. Rajan has always been a wonderful mentor to me ever since. Whenever I have any problems  I always consult him for advice. Over the past five years  have taken  two diplomas with distinction.Thank you Mr.Rajan for changing me to a better person - Gina Leow  28 Years

I was very skeptical about attending this workshop at first. However attending this workshop really made a difference to me. I learnt more about how our brain functions, how to set goals and follow them through as well as super learning skills. I now know that we have all the resources we need to achieve our goals and that limitations are only set by us. The most important principle I learnt was the " As If Now " principle. I also learnt how to give public speaking and  impromptu speeches in front of an audience confidently. We were very shy at first but very quickly we came out of our shells......I definitely encourage others like us to attend this workshop as it really changes you a lot. Yeah !  three cheers to Mr. Rajan ! - Prise Ho Fei Fang  16 years (2004)

I am Liming.  I took the Dare to Excel course in 2004. Recently I obtained my GCE (O Level) with good grades . Thanks to you I have become one of the top speakers in my school. I was asked by the school principal to join our school debate team. Your workshop gave me the confidence needed to take on an important role as the chairman of my school entrepreneur club.  Aaron 13 years, 2004

Over the last two days I have learnt a lot about our mind. Now I understand that mind is a powerful tool in everything  we do. The knowledge I have gained will certainly drive me to towards achieving my goals. I realise  now how important it is to set specific, realistic and measurable goals with a definite time frame I know that success is a journey and not a destination and that it cannot be achieved with our hands in our pockets. I have certainly benefited from this course and would not hesitate in recommending this course to others like me. - Ben Goh  18 years JC Student (2003)
    

 

 

 
This course truly helped to develop my self confidence. I have spent a lot to money attending other courses and they did not make an impact in my life as this course did. This course totally changed me and my way of thinking. I was negative and under confident before. Not any more as I have all the power within me to succeed. I will recommend this course to all my cousins and friends. Thanks to uncle Rajan - he made a significant difference in my life. - Anu Rajendran  15 years - 2003.

I learnt about many things in this course. I now know that the attention span of the brain is about 20 minutes only and that only one thought can be can be held at any time. Setting SMART goals , use of  memory pegs and  SQ3R  study skills are really useful tools  which takes into consideration how the brain process information. Public Speaking and social skills are the other subjects which are very beneficial. I sincerely recommend this course to anyone who wants to excel. - Joshua Ho    13 years (2004)

 


 


Initially I did not want to attend this course as I thought it is another one of those courses claiming to change one's life. Mr Rajan invited me to try out his course for one day with no obligation and come on the second day if I find the course useful.  Am I glad I came ? You bet, I would regret it had I not turned up. I learnt a lot about my brain and how to take charge of  my life. I have attended many courses before but nothing like this NLP based training believed to be the first in Singapore for teens .I will apply these skills and achieve my goals. I sincerely recommend this course  to every one.   Thank you Coach  Rajan.- Shireen Ahmad 17 years, Poly Student
                                                   


I really benefited from this course. I would like to thank our Coach Rajan for his dedicated and enthusiastic teaching. There was a lot of fun and laugher. I learnt many things from this two day course but most important of them was developing my confidence. I used to shiver when I had to do a speech in front of an audience. We learnt how to deliver a speech without having any fear with confidence. I dare to give a speech now in front of a class  with confidence. The most interesting thing I learnt about in this course is the " eye movement" chart. I hope that all teenagers will take up this course to develop their hidden potentials. - Ashley Yuen  15 years

 
This course taught me many things I did not know before like how to be sociable, how to make an impromptu speech and deliver speeches with confidence. I also have a better understanding of how to use mind mapping  although I learnt this subject before. I have mastered the art of  goal setting and making use of your mind's imagination drive you towards your dreams. This course is value for money  as it is really inexpensive compared to  many  other courses I have attended.  I would encourage anyone to join this course  to develop their  full potential. - Thevviya Rani  14  years

 



This NLP course taught me how to use my brain correctly to achieve my goals. I learnt study techniques.,  mind mapping , memory techniques and public speaking. My confidence and self esteem also improved very much. If in two days I can improve so much by removing my limiting beliefs I have no doubt that I can achieve my goals by applying the skills I learnt. Thank you Major Rajan  for boosting my self confidence. I urge all  students to attend this course  - Muhammad  Faizan  13 years   

 
If somebody asked me to deliver this speech in front of you two days ago  I wouldn't have dared.
Thanks to the course here I am standing in front of you  delivering this speech. This course is uniquely different from other courses as it focuses a lot on our mind and how we can excel in life in all areas - education, leadership, social skills, and communication skills. Before I did not know how to set goals and follow through with an action plan. While other courses may be good this course is a MUST for everyone. So go for it!!  - Kuhon Rajendran  18 years - Studying in Perth, back on holidays. Kuhon, whose goal is to be an air force pilot tries on  Major Rajan's flying helmet.

a fathers day message from  Rajan's son                                                                                                                 
Hi Dad,
Just realised that it's been so long since I've written one of these Father's Day cards. Hence I thought I should go back in time and write you a card like I used to. I've never thanked you enough for the wonderful 22 years I've had with you. From the early days where I used to wait for the animal shadows you'd make with your hands on our bedroom wall to the stories about Indian men running around in "bed sheets". Even until today, your tales (fact or fiction), never fails to amuse me. But what's close to my heart, is all the love you show and give us by working ever so hard to provide to the family. And with all that you do and have gone through, you never fail to motivate us to do our very best in life, whatever our pursuits might be. If you never knew , now know that you've been a great dad to the both of us and that we love you....

Happy Father's Day 2002 ! Sashi

( Sashi Rajan  was a pioneer in the development of this course .  Sashi became a student leader, Dy Head Prefect and won the "Model Student of the year "award  of his school in 1997.

feedback from a full time academic:

I have had the pleasure of knowing Major Rajan for almost twelve years now. He has been a source of inspiration and support to my family. He has had a very positive influence on both my children. Major Rajan has the knack of interacting with teenagers in a sensitive way that ensures a positive outcome. He takes time to understand their particular problems and is able to alleviate a lot of their anxieties through his positive mentoring. He never talks down to teens but demonstrates his genuine engagement with their difficulties, thus endorsing their self-esteem. This is an invaluable asset in my opinion.   One of his great strengths is the passion and unfailing enthusiasm he brings to his mentoring. He does not do things in half-measures. This deep engagement with teenagers guarantees his success with them. My children are very fond of him and owe a lot of their success to his guidance and ! help.

a note from a former medical intern whom  Rajan guided 7 years ago

Dear Rajan,

 
I'm really happy to hear that you've finally got into the thing that you've been so passionate about all these years. I logged onto your website and seeing all those photographs brought a heap of memories flooding back. I remember the time almost ten years ago,  when I had just graduated and starting work as an intern, being influenced by a considerable amount of negativity and most of all fear of failure. Meeting with you and just listening to what you said - 'failure is an event, not a person',  'you are what you think you are' and I remember you introducing me to "Awaken the Giant Within". I suppose its not only what you said but you said it with so much passion that really perked my interest. All of these had a tremendous impact on my attitude. I've had failures but most importantly your encouragement to 'visualise and see myself achieving what I want' kept me going. In 1996, I saw myself achieving my immediate goals of passing the exams I had set out to do and start a new life Down Under.
In 2000, we arrived here and were not looking back. I suppose the thing that I'm most grateful to you for is your opening up to me the concept that 'you're not stuck with what you are, you can change' and seeing the world of opportunities that start with changing one's attitude. I would like to wish you all the best in this 'journey' that you have embarked!
 
Cheers!

an encouraging note from a sister

My dear brother,

I am very pleased to note that your dream has come true , setting up your own motivational training consultancy after all these 20 years of motivating family members and relatives.... I saw you on Channel 5 ,The Good Times on 20th May 2004 where you once again reiterated your passion to help others  ......I know that the word 'retirement' is not in your vocabulary.

 ........Would you believe it - when I did my Royal College Membership exams in London - I was almost touching 50years!!! - a good 20 years older than all the others.  And  even now, I can't remember the name for the technique  -  I still use the 'finger-thumb trigger' you taught me before each and every presentation I make.

You have changed the course of my life completely and in your constant, sometimes - sorry to say this - nagging way,  helped me become what I am today. I do hope you will be able to guide others, hopefully much younger people, and introduce them to the simple principles you taught me that can actually make such a pronounced  difference in one's life.

With loving regards,

Prabha
