I know a lot of people that are members of the 4am club. As its name suggests, these are people that get up at 4am and start their day early to get a jumpstart on their competitors. The theory is good – but for someone that doesn’t think about going to bed before 1am it … Read moreNeed a Monday kickstart?
This is where a lot of us get it wrong. Before you build the business plan you need to have a life plan. You need to know what lifestyle you want. Who do you want to hang out with? Do you want/have a family? Where do you want to eat your dinners? At the family … Read moreHave you built your life plan?
Yesterday I told you to stop looking ahead and rather to pause and refocus. I thought about it.

This is probably worse … Read moreNow be productive

Through learning! I’m not talking about going to university or courses I’m talking about actual learning! There is a saying: ” Those that can’t do, teach and those that can’t teach, do!” I want to change the second part slightly. “Those that don’t teach but learn, succeed!” You see – the textbooks are great for … Read moreHow to really live
“I don’t have enough time.” I have spoken about this before and just a bit frustrated as a client has told me they don’t have enough time to do the work I have asked them to in the program we are working in together in a 1 on 1 session. The worst is they are … Read moreStop saying this
