💥 WHO IS ANDREAS DORN 💥
I am a German, who came to Malaysia and Asia in 1993, initially with the United Nations. In this capacity, I worked at the Prime Minister's Department in Kuala Lumpur.
Following this, I moved to Indonesia, Singapore, and back to Malaysia, which I now call my home.
Working in an HR Consulting Company, I came across NLP or Neuro Linguistic Programming in 2003 and became a Certified Trainer of NLP in 2006.
NLP has helped me to create my life the way I want to live it, and I now teach and coach people to experience the same.
👉 What Is NLP?
NLP or Neuro Linguistic Programming is an incredibly easy way to help people like you understand why you are stuck in their life. More importantly, NLP can help you, through its methodology and techniques, to get rid of limiting beliefs and remove negative emotions, such as anger, sadness, fear, phobia, and panic.
NLP also helps you to communicate more effectively and influentially to people around you, but also to yourself.
Ultimately, NLP gives you the ability to create your life and get the results that you want.
Look around yourself and you find people who have studied NLP and human behaviours and become incredibly successful.
People like Tony Robbins, Bill Clinton, and Barrack Obama, or sports athletes like Tiger Woods, David Beckham, and others.

Many things I like about my country but Kinokuniya has been a constant place to go from time to time. knowledge is power!
It's nice, right? To get in there, feel the atmosphere, and the smell of knowledge. Thanks for your comment. I appreciate it🙏
I loooveee Kinokuniya. They have sooo many books there. Books that are so hard to find can be found there.
Absolutely. That's why I love browsing there,. And the staff is fantastic. Thanks for commenting and sharing your thoughts.
Each time I go back to Malaysia, I definitely visit Kinokuniya to buy hard-to-get books to bring back to Australia. It also reminds me of when I was living in KL during my younger years. It brings back memories.
@@azharel haha and I loved to buy books in Sydney whenever i visited as i found books not available here. Interesting, hm?
There is Eslite Bookstore at Starhill..quirky vibes
@@asiaminddynamics I'm in Melbourne, usually I get it online, but like Malaysian published books, we can't get it here. Usually cookbook. I love local bookshop and I refrain getting them from Amazon.
How are you Mr Andreas, long time no see 😊
Wow, what a fun journey! 🥰 I miss Kinokuniya a lot..the scent, the environment..always be a meaningful escapism everytime I go to KL. And those who comments about the wide range of materials there- from academic courses to the leisures; to me Kinokunita is the best. You're right about screen- reading Mr Andreas, I can't put that par with the feelings of reading, touching & scribing on actual & physical books. Can be crazy spending more than my budget on books sometimes to the extent I should carry a big trolley 🤦🏻TQ for bring us again with your vlog! 😊
All good here but where were you? Most importantly thank you for your wonderful comment. You put so much thought in it. Books are a fantastic way to get away and I really dig your response. Happy reading and maybe one day we meet in Kinokuniya, haha 🙏🤗
@@asiaminddynamics what a lucky day if we stumble upon each other there! 🤗🔥 Am living north of peninsular, previously always travelling to KL for so many reasons from work & study purposes to attend developmental courses. I almost made an issue of book crisis as my thesis title once 😅 Bookstores & libraries are scattered but can't bring the same vibe & experience as Kinokuniya. Bookfair is another choice, but the crowd is insane 🤭☺️
@@azwasaaidns3936 This would be awesome. And check wit me if you are in KL. My main job is to run personal development courses, if this is up to your mind :-)
@@asiaminddynamics wow, thank you for invitation. Surely if I had a chance 🤩🥰
Rehman Rashid was a prominent journalist with NST back then. The NST used to be the no.1 newspaper in Malaysia. They had these really great journalists/writers....their English and writing skills were just incomparable. Many have passed, though. Perhaps you may also be interested in Adibah Amin's books. Another great writer of yesteryear. Anyway, thanks for taking us along on your exploration.. Book Xcess in Cyberjaya Tamarind Square carries a lot of good stuff too. You might like the cosy, chill vibes there
Thank you so much for watching the video and commenting on the book. I appreciate it. I remember buying the NST every morning, settling down on the floor and reading it for about 1 hour. It was a most enjoyable time. And screen reading can't bring that feeling back. Thank you for recommending Adibah Amin. I will look out for that book. And yes next time in Cyberjaya, it will include a visit to Book Xcess. I am not aware of it but look forward to it. Wishing you an awesome day 💪🏼
Try our talented cartoonist Lat. I love his collection which gave insights into the Malaysian life and people.
Oh Lat was/ is fantastic. So point on. 🤗
Bookstores in Singapore keep closing down. I hope mph in KL in TRX and kinokuniya will do well. Love bookshops...i spent so many hours at borders bookstore many years ago when it was still there at one end of orchard road in Singapore.
Oh no. They do? 😰. You are like me. I love spending time at bookshops and also see their evolution to provide more services and become more cozy. I also hope they survive. Thank you for your sharing 🤗🙏
They are all great bookstores. Interesting to see MPH going all-in on trx.
Oh yes, it could be their survival strategy and massive relaunch. But I also like their smaller outlets in different "neighborhoods". It makes them accessible. Thank you for your comment 🙏👍
I love Kinokuniya because they have got Tarot cards/decks and Oracle decks too. I cannot find these in any other bookstores.
That's true. You are right. And that's the amazing things about Kinokuniya, isn't it? Thank you for sharing 🙏
I have the same book that you mentioned as well, really a gem!
Oh wow, you are one of the few. It's an amazing book, isn't it! Thanks for contributing 🤗
What a wonderful bookstore.
They are, aren't they? Do you know the book that I mention in the video?
@@asiaminddynamics I didn't quite catch the title and author of your favorite book, enlighthen it again. I really like MPH bookstore, used to go to MPH in Bangsar Shopping Complex near to Damansara Heights where I used to live. Bought few books from there. Back then, my favorite book was from Tony Buzan, learned so much about mnemonic techniques, later learned about mind mapping from an inhouse training program in KLCC. During KLCC time, I had more favorite books from Stephen Covey, and even attended his famous training program Seven Highly Effective Skills at Petronas training center in Bangi. Could you please let me know again your favorite book and author. 😀
@@Yasin_Affandi What a story. Wow. Thank you for sharing. I read Tony Buzan and met him once, by chance. An amazing person. I hung out in MPH in Bangsar when I arrived. It was my second home, haha, since it was on my way home from the PM's department. My book of that time was "A Malaysian Journey" by Rehman Rashid. I mention it at the end of the video.
@@asiaminddynamics Wow. You met the late Tony Buzan, wonderful. Thank you for mentioning the title and author of the book. 😀
@@Yasin_Affandi you are most welcome. Well, it was only a 5 minute conversation but I will always remember it. Some people leave a lasting and positive mark. 🙏
I have that book🙋♀️🇲🇾
Wahhh! You are One of the few. Do you like it? I plan to read it again. It's such a nice book. Thank you for commenting 🙏
@@asiaminddynamics will read it again👍
@@mizzylamydean2936 Me too 🙏
3:24 Nowadays, bookstores are not doing as well as they did in the past, when people used to flock to bookstores. Bookstores now need to sell more than just books, such as stationary items, to stay profitable. Therefore, it is a high-risk decision for MPH to open a bookstore at TRX with its very high rental costs.
Spot on. It's getting harder to get people to read and those who read might prefer ebooks. What about you? Which one do you like? And thanks for putting your thoughts out here. I appreciate it 🙏
Must create a good loyalty programme and sell-back options.
@zafir7007 true. Great idea.
Is there a reason why the massive bookshops are in Malaysia. In New Zealand it is dying.
A good question, actually. I don't know but I think that bookshops diversify their business. Also, they are in huge malls so it's easier to attract visitors. But I might be totally wrong. Hope someone else chips in. Thanks for asking 🙏
