3.April 2024The first mentoring session with Bhanu was remarkable. He was able to look at it without my board in front of his head and analyze it in a focused way. And he was able to derive exciting impulses from it, which are illuminated under the magnifying glass of storytelling. I really enjoyed the fun and enthusiastic, but also focused and results-oriented conversation. Him too, I think. Bhanu was very inspiring for my project FIUFRI - Your3rdHand and I thank him! And also M-C for this wonderful opportunity!

22.December 2023I enjoyed my session with Bhanu. He gave me lots of tried-and-tested tips on creating the perfect campaign and was very generous with his time and feedback on my startup idea. He reviewed my MVP with me, and we even explored my positioning statement and came up with a slogan. My one takeaway from our session: "It is all about emotions, not the product, price, etc. - it is all about selling the EMOTION". I will recommend him to anyone who wants a candid and kind mentor who's well-versed in crafting storybrands!

7.December 2023This session was just what I needed at the current stage in my life. For the longest time I have been looking for a mentor who could understand my journey and then help me reach where I would like to. I have been reading a lot, joining courses but nothing can replace what one genuine human interaction can do. If I were to pick exactly what I loved about Bhanu as a mentor - 1. He was empathetic, 2. Spoke as "we" and that showed how much my success meant to him 3. Gave ideas that I could start working on immediately 4. Reinforced multiple times what my strengths were (which is extremely crucial considering where I am now) I didn't realize how time flew. It's hard to think of anything that I didn't like during our interaction. Thank you so much Bhanu for your time and guidance. Thank you for Mentoring Club for this platform.

24.November 2023I had a really good meeting with Bhanu who was very personable and able to quickly understand what I was trying to achieve. He gave me some good feedback on my current communications and how they could be improved. I left with some creative ideas which will help transform my comms and he stimulated my own ideas about a communications strategy.

8.November 2023I had the privilege of having a mentoring session with Bhanu Prakash. We delved into two topics: gender bias in communications roles and the sustainability narrative of brands. I must acknowledge that Bhanu's vast knowledge and experience added to my understanding of these topics. An important highlight of our session was Bhanu's deep insight into recognizing and addressing such industry biases. On the subject of sustainability narratives for brands, Bhanu underscored the importance of authenticity and transparency in conveying a brand's commitment to sustainability, which is often not the case. As a mentor, what truly distinguishes Bhanu is his active listening skills, which create an open and welcoming environment for sharing one's thoughts. I recommend Bhanu Prakash as a mentor on this platform to anyone seeking guidance on various aspects of brand and people communications, and I am grateful for the insights I gained from his session. Thank you, Bhanu.

The Secret
Rhonda Byrne
"The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne is a self-help book that centers on the Law of Attraction. It suggests that thoughts can change a person's life directly and has sold millions of copies worldwide. The book has also been translated into 50 languages. Here are the key facts or insights from the book: 1. The Law of Attraction: Everything we want or desire can be achieved by believing in an outcome, incessantly thinking about it, and maintaining positive emotional states to "attract" it. 2. The Power of Positive Thinking: Positive thinking can yield positive outcomes, while negative thinking can lead to undesirable results. 3. Thoughts Become Things: Our thoughts have the power to manifest into reality. 4. The Importance of Gratitude: Gratitude can increase life's goodness. Expressing gratitude often makes people receptive to the abundance around them. 5. The Power of Visualization: Visualizing goals can help to achieve them. 6. The Universe is Abundant: The universe is full of everything we need or desire, and it is possible to attract anything from this abundance. 7. The Role of Feelings: Feelings are a powerful indicator of what we are thinking and attracting. 8. Ask, Believe, Receive: These are the three steps in the process of manifestation according to "The Secret." 9. The Secret to Health: The book suggests that disease in the body comes from negative thoughts. 10. The Secret to Relationships: Our thoughts and feelings about others determine our relationships with them. 11. The Secret to Money: It is possible to attract wealth by maintaining a mindset of abundance. Detailed Summary and Analysis "The Secret" introduces the law of attraction, a principle suggesting that our thoughts have the power to transform our lives. Byrne asserts that the universe emits a specific frequency of waves that people can tune into, similar to a radio, and that our thoughts and feelings can change the frequency we resonate with. This concept underlines the power of positive thinking, which is a recurring theme in the book. Byrne emphasizes that thoughts become things. This means that whatever we focus on in our minds can manifest in our lives. For example, if we constantly think about our debts, we will continue to attract debt, but if we think about abundance, we will attract wealth. The book also highlights the importance of gratitude. Byrne suggests that feeling grateful for what we already have can make us open to receiving even more. This perspective implies an abundant universe, a philosophy contradicting the more common thought of scarcity. The power of visualization is another key concept in "The Secret." Byrne suggests that visualizing our dreams and goals as if they have already happened can bring those desires into reality. This technique aligns with many psychological studies and cognitive behavioral therapies that employ visualization as a powerful tool for change. Feelings play a crucial role in the law of attraction. Byrne suggests that our feelings indicate what we are thinking and attracting. If we feel good, we are likely to attract good things into our lives. Conversely, if we feel bad, we may attract negativity. The author presents a three-step process for manifestation: Ask, Believe, and Receive. According to Byrne, we need to ask the universe for what we want, believe that we will get it, and be open to receiving it. This process, she argues, can be applied to all aspects of life, including health, relationships, and money. In terms of health, "The Secret" suggests that disease in the body comes from negative thoughts. By changing our thoughts, we can change our physical condition. This concept, although controversial for some, aligns with the idea of psychosomatic illness, where the mind can influence the body's health. The book also applies the law of attraction to relationships, suggesting that our thoughts and feelings about others determine our relationships with them. If we think positively about others, we attract positive relationships. Finally, the book addresses the topic of money. Byrne suggests that it is possible to attract wealth by maintaining a mindset of abundance. She argues that by focusing on abundance and feeling grateful for the money we already have, we can attract more wealth. Conclusion "The Secret" is a guide to understanding and using the law of attraction, a principle suggesting that our thoughts can change the world around us. The book offers practical advice on how to use this law to attract health, wealth, and happiness. While some may find the claims in "The Secret" overly simplistic or unrealistic, many people have found the book helpful in shaping their mindset and improving their lives. It's important to approach the book with an open mind and consider its ideas as tools that can empower you to take control of your thoughts and, ultimately, your life. The concepts discussed in the book align with many psychological principles and therapeutic techniques, suggesting that there may indeed be some "secret" power in positive thinking and visualization. As an experienced professor in these topics, I believe that "The Secret" offers valuable insights into the power of the mind and the potential of human thought.
