Interview with Noor Mohammed



It’s my honour to meet up with Mr Noor Mohammed, the founder of Success Nation.

Though we had only a short period of time to interact, I could sense the burning passion and energy in him. Let’s us witness this rising star’s Journey to becoming a Millionaire in a year!!

Garuto: An introduction of yourself

Noor: My name is Noor Mohammed. I just turned 24 and i perform 2 roles.
As a Personal Growth Coach:
I support people to tap into their inner power, and discover their greatness
which allows them to live free from the opinion of other people and to
create clarity, certainty and focus in achieving their desires.
As a New Media Specialist
I work with social entrepreneurs, charities, and other professionals looking
to build their online reputation and audience using blogs, podcasts
(audio and video), membership sites and social media. I set up their blog
and help them to create appropriate keywords and other techniques that
will ensure they get found by their target market.

I am a second year Business student in NUS. I've taken a 1 year leave of
absence so i can focus on developing my business and focus on achieve

Garuto: Talk about your quest in becoming a millionaire by 31st December 2010 and motivation behind.

Noor: What would it be like to watch somebody during the inception of a dream?
That is what i want to inspire in people through my journey. That’s the reason why i am recording my daily video log of my journey to a million every step of the way.

The most important thing about achieving a million dollars is creating a millionaire mindset.
Most people would think that if you set up a big business and work very hard, you will be able to earn a million dollars.But the fact is that you might lose the million dollars just as easily. If you look at lottery winners, they can win a couple of million dollars and within a few years most of them go broke and a lot even end up in debt.

That’s because their money blueprint is set for low. But if you look at someone like Donald trump, he can be in hundreds' of million dollars in debt and he can still rise out of it a billionaire. Cause his money blueprint is set for high. So it doesn’t matter if he loses all of his money again, he will still be able to earn it back.

If you take a millionaire and put him in a random country, within a few months or years he will be able to get rich, cause he knows how! And his money blueprint is set for high.

Garuto: What’s your view in using Facebook and YouTube as marketing tools.

Noor: The reason I’m using Facebook and YouTube as a marketing tool is first because it’s completely free.
And it’s so much more effective than anything else! Facebook has close to 400 million users and recently it’s been said that Facebook is going to be bigger than Google. YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world and it’s a great place to upload my daily videos logs. Since it’s free and has such a large viewership it makes the perfect medium to upload my videos and log my daily journey.

Garuto: You are still studying in NUS, will it affect your studies while pursuing your goal?

Noor: Yup i am still studying in NUS, but i have taken a 1 year leave of absence to pursue my dreams.
Most of my friends and family are asking me why don't i finish my studies first and then pursue my goals.
Why can't i pursue my goals first? I believe if you really want something you should go out and get regardless of what other people think and say. If you want it really bad enough, and work for it, you will get it!

Garuto: Education ... your take on education, are paper qualifications compulsory to become rich in life?

Noor: I honestly feel that education is important. But paper qualifications are not. In Singapore everyone is looking for paper qualification. Most of my friends believe the more paper qualifications you have, the more successful you are.
But i think that not the case. Look at most of the successful people out there who have their own business. Most of them don't even have a degree. Of course if you want to get a good job, you should have paper qualifications. But I’m not looking for a job :)

Garuto: Who is your idol?

Noor: I have various Idols. Namely Anthony Robbins, T Harv Eker, Les Brown. All of them started from nothing.

Garuto: If there is one thing you can change in the world, what will it be?

Noor: I would change how people think about their lives. I want
people to realize how great they actually are. I want people to realize
how much potential they have and how big a difference they can
make in the world. That they don't need to settle for something
less than they deserve.

Most importantly i want people, especially young people to realize
that they are great and they can achieve anything they want in life.

Garuto: How are you going to spend your fortune after 31st December?

Noor: I'm not going to spend my fortune, i would rather invest it.
I'm planning in investing in other business ideas. For example I’m
planning to set up this business which incorporates giving back to
the community. I want to give back to the 3rd world countries.
Kids who have no resources to learn. I want to make them realize
what they are capable of becoming.

Garuto: To finish it off, an inspirational quote for our readers.

Noor:
"Our current circumstances do not reveal your true nature.
It only reveals your current state of thinking."
Rise up to your greatness !
