Who is Brian Tracy

18 replies
I've been watching the ec.tv channel on Sky tv lately and I was just wondering if any has bought The Psychology of Achievement by Brian Tracey lately ???

At the moment it's being sold at £55.95 + £2.95 for pp . (£ = British pound)

I did a research and found out that this program has been around for a good while, and I am just wondering if it's exactly the same one the old one,

Has anyone got the both version of it ? the old one and the new one ?
if so
what is the difference or improvements on the new one ?

if the new one is the same as the old one then I can probably get a copy of a friend (or buy it at a very reasonable price of him lol ) then spending nearly £60 for it.

Can anyone list the contents of it ?,
like the Headings of each subject he teaches,

When I did a research about it, it was in 2 parts as a while package;
The Psychology of Achievement
The Psychology of Success

and I did listen a few samples of the old one and it was Not Brian Tracy talking on the samples, not sure who it was but it definetely Not Brian Tracy !

so has the new one got him on it or some-one else did the audio for him ?

is the new one the same as above that covers both parts ?
how many CD s are there in total in the package ?
How many hours in total is the program ?

when they are showing the intro about the program on the tv, they are not giving enough information about it.
I did send an e-mail to the ec channel about a month ago and asked all about these questions and got no answer whatsoever,

also what other programs by Brain Tracy would you reccomend as a follow up ?

I would really apreaciate it if any of you can help me out on this.

Thanks in advance.

    As I remember, the two titles you mention are different programs. I've owned both in the past. I especially loved The Psychology of Achievement and have had two or three copies. I've listened to it literally hundreds of times. It's in my top three personal development courses of all times.

    I wouldn't recommend getting the course unless it it Tracy himself as getting the real thing is easy enough. Just check out eBay or Amazon. Below are details for both courses and are not affiliate links.

      thanks, I've listened a few samples of it, but as I mentioned in my post, it wasn't Brian Tracy who is reading it, it's not his voice !, not sure who is reading the course, but it's definetely not Brain Tracy himself.
      so that's why I was wondering about the latest one that is being advertised all the time on ec.tv on sky is actualy being done by Brian Tracy himself. do you know much about that ?

        Psychology of Achievement is an excellent place to start. I own that, as well as Psych. of Success and Psych. of Selling. Brian's work has been a huge positive influence on my life.

        He also has a newer package out that is excellent. The book is called Flight Plan, and it comes with 2 60-minute CD's - The Magic of Self Discipline & Goals. This might be a good follow-up for you after POA.

        Best to you in 2010,
        Scott

    Maximum Achievement is an awesome book from Brian Tracy. Reading and applying what I learned from it has changed my life! I believe this book is based on his Psychology Of Achievement course.

      I have a copy of The Psychology of Achievement that I bought from Amazon.com a few years ago. It's definitely Tracy reading it, but I'm not sure if this is a new version or the old version.

      Also, his book "Maximum Achievement" is basically the book version of The Psychology of Achievement. It covers all the same information and principles.

        I've read his book title The Psychology
        of Selling and I have several of his
        audios as well. I really enjoyed this
        book. Walking through it I was able
        come away with a complete plan of
        business.

        Brian Tracy is considered to be one of
        the top authorities in selling. Another
        great resource is Tom Hopkins. I like
        his techniques.

        Continue to make it happen!

          thanks, "Selling" also sounds like a good title, I already have a little freelance website-design business and need some ideas on how I can improve that as it's not doing as well as it should be, so I also have a day job too, but I'll be looking into that Title and hope it can give me some ideas. Thanks again. Happy new year ....

    Hello, Flash:

    I have been a Brian Tracy fan for many years and because of that, last year I began promoting and selling Brian Tracy products.

    Here is a link to one of my recent web biz blog posts specifically about Tracy's The New Psychology of Acievement: The New Psychology of Achievement Revisited

    This blog post gives a little more insight into the program, plus it provides links to a previous blog post with more detail, as well as a direct link to Tracy's product information page. On the product information page, he highlights how and why the NEW program is different from the original program.

    Hope this helps to answer some of your questions.

    GT
    p.s. To get the link to Brian Tracy's web page where YOU CAN ACCESS ALL OF BRIAN'S products, read my web biz blog post, Commitment to Personal Development in 2010

      thank you, I've checked out your website (very nice website by the way ), and I can see that you are a big a fan of B.T, I've also noticed that , the New one is being sold at $49.95 (Audio) which I assume would be a download version, I live in the UK, and its being sold at £59.95 and there is £28 pounds the diffence in price, I do'nt know why we always have to pay more money for things that is always cheaper elsewhere, but anyhow, after a good research I still think it's well woth the money even if it's 60 quid. Thanks again. Happy new year ! ...

        Hello, F.M.:

        Yes, the MP3 version is US$49.95; the CD version is just $10 more. It depends on what a person uses and what they prefer.

        I agree with you that the value is definitely there. I have a number of audio programs from Brian Tracy, Earl Nightingale, Tony Robbins, etc. (many of which I paid US$89.00 and US$99.00 for in cassette format some time ago!), but I consider them to be priceless because of the value they continue to provide year after year. I know this sounds like a cliche, but I truly consider the cost of these programs to be an investment, not an expense.

        I enjoy and appreciate motivational/training material from all of the recognized masters, but for contemporary advice, coaching and inspiration, Brian Tracy is definitely my first choice.

        I know that any Brian Tracy programs you buy and study will reward you over and over again. Purchase with confidence, enjoy and prosper!

          FM,
          I'm a BT fan too and have several of his products.

          PoA is a fantastic program and gets an annual listen.

          That and the book (Maximum Achievement) are (imho) excellent tools for making the best of talents and opportunities. The Goal setting chapter (5, I think) is a great piece of inspirational writing just begging to be put to use.

          To be honest, I wasn't sold on what was different between the improved and the older PoA.
          I went to GT's site and to BT's site and obviously missed what was 'improved'.

          Can anyone state what's different between the two programs?

          Best wishes for 2010 - Year of The Tiger!

            Hi, Mark:

            As a marketer of Brian Tracy products, I truly appreciate your question. As you have noticed, the promo material for the new improved Psychology of Achievement does not clearly state what the "new" part is.

            Brian says, "Since 1983, times have changed dramatically..." and he notes the Internet, the technological revolution and other global changes ... but he doesn't specify the nature of the changes in the updated PoV program. My guess is that he has added new material that relate directly to the above noted items, and that he may have dropped or revised material that relates to outdated references.

            I do not personally have the NEW version ... however, after reading your comment, I am now planning on purchasing it!

            Thanks again.

    Brian's Psychology of Achievement course is dangerously life-changing.

    I listened to it after 'Personal Power II'. And they're 2 entirely different fields of ways-of-achievement.

    2 combined = rapid success that you would've not otherwise gotten listening to just one of them.

    I still prefer 'Psy. of Achievement' over PPII.

    Thank you all for all your answers, I did a lot more research about B.T and I think he has some amazing products, I'm definetely gonna get the "The New Psychology of Achievement " as it seems the old one is out of date, I've also visited his website and found lots of others, the thing is; he has many Goal achieving and Success programs, and it seems a little confusing which one to get First and next as a follow up Programs.

    The main idea obviously is Personal development, so I can learn my way to health and Wealth, this also means I have more time than money at the moment, so I'm hoping to learn alot of the warriorforums as well as personal development programs.

    Happy new year to you all !
    hope it brings us all wealth - health - happiness.

    Flash, I'm not familiar with the specific program you mentioned, but I do want to add another enthusiastic vote for the book Maximum Achievement.

    It's a really super-duper, easy to read, easy to understand, easy to apply, mind-expanding discussion of many helpful self-improvement topics and you really can't go wrong with it. Great introduction if you are new to this kind of thing, great review and reinforcement and new distinctions if you have already explored these ideas. You'll never regret reading it and having it on your shelf to refer to again and again or loan to friends.

    I would start there, then go on Amazon and read reviews of his other products to help decide what to get next.

    I've noticed Brians voice sounds different from past audio products to today's products, quite a noticable difference actually. I recorded an audio tape from a video of 21 secrets of self made millionares done in the early 90's. (listened to it at least a thousand times!) But there is a huge difference from what he sounded like then to what he sounds like today. Unless someone has a video and it's obviously not him presenting.
