Your Business Quest

The reality is that you’ll experience setbacks in business. But it’s how you think & the meaning you attach to those setbacks that makes all the difference. In today’s episode, we’ll explore 3 key questions to ask yourself so you avoid attaching negative meanings or beliefs in these situations: 1. Is this really true? 2. What am I making this mean? 3. Is this meaning helpful to me & my bus...

Back in the ‘comfort’ of the corporate world, whenever there was a problem – there was always someone else that could take the lead in fixing it. But now that you’re the boss … do you ever feel like you need to wear multiple hats & you’re ultimately responsible for it all? I’m sure that at times, you’ve wished for there to be no problems to deal with, right? But are problems really something w...

As time moves on, it’s a great idea to stop & reflect on what you’re doing (or not doing). Because I’m pretty sure that just like me, there will be some things you’re doing that aren’t really making an impact or getting the results that you want. You may be still doing them because you think you ‘should’ be doing it or that you’re just in the habit of doing it … so it’s now become the ‘norm’....

If you were a salesperson (which you are … even if it’s not in your official title), how would you feel if this happened? A current customer of 6 years, who’s already had 2 cars from your dealership before reaches out to say they’re interested to discuss what next car they could get from you. I hope you say ….. that you’d be jumping with joy & really eager to speak with your customer asap! Wel...

‘Do you think I should wear this dress or the one I showed you before?’, shouted Shareen … even though we really should have left for the wedding 25 minutes ago! It’s only fashionable for the bride to be late for a wedding, right? After saying the first one was ‘fine’ (typical guy) … I jumped in the car & punched in post code into the sat nav … waiting patiently & trying my best to not hon...

Facebook has changed their algorithm …. again. It’s the school summer holidays. COVID … need I even say more! The list can sometimes appear endless about why it can feel hard to grow your business at times. BUT … today’s lets flip the switch & look at the positives instead. As if you compare it to the ‘olden days’ when I first started my business 14 years ago … we’ve actually got things much e...

Are you more into pain or pleasure? Erm … not in that way ;) ! I mean … when it comes to getting motivated to getting stuff done? Because both can work … well to an extent! But it depends on if you’re wanting consistent & long-term results for your business, because if so … there’s a clear winner from my experience. Check out which type of motivation … pain or pleasure … can help you to get ou...

How much credit do you give your unconscious mind? Do you trust it? Well it kinda runs the show in so many ways … so I really hope you do! Think about it … did you have to remind yourself to breathe in the past few seconds? How about blinking your eyes … did you have to instruct your body to do that? Nope … we’ve got a helping hand ALL the time, who’s looking out for us. But are you using your unc...

There really wouldn’t be much of a story .. never mind a whole series … if there was no Harry Potter … in the Harry Potter books or movies. Because he went onto save the wizarding world. Just in the same way that Katniss helped overthrow the Capitol in the Hunger Games …  Moana saved helped save her whole community … or how Batman helps protect Gotham City & the Karate Kid went on to...

‘Remember when Osmaan was totally in love with the IT teacher?’ , blurted out a friend over dinner. ‘Erm no I wasn’t!’ … I quickly responded, whilst turning a shade of bright red! ‘Yes you so were!’ … pipped up some of my other loyal school friends. The truth was out! Because I really did fancy my IT teacher in high school, but at the time, I didn’t really know that I was. ( Oh maybe I j...

Ever been to a ‘Come As You Will Be’ party before? Honestly, they’re ace & make for such a great theme for a party! They can help motivate you in making things happen in your business & life. In this episode I'll explain how they work & why I love them so much. Of course feel free to invite me to yours, if you organise one … it’s been a long time since I’ve been to a proper party since...

“I wish I could make things happen the way they do!” How many times have you had that thought or feeling? You know … like the grass is greener … over there & for them! It’s definitely a sign of some ‘comparison-itis’ going on. I had a personal experience of this too recently, which I’d love to share with you, so that it can help you to instead … focus upon watering the grass … on your side! He...

I nearly went flying straight into the garden pond …. head first! Because I was in such a rush & actually didn’t know there was a concrete step on the patio. Luckily my mum grabbed me, so I avoided getting drenched. But I still remember it to this day, even though it happened when I was like 7 years old. Does that ever feel like you … always rushing around & wanting to get places FAST? Las...

 Does this resonate?   ‘Sometimes I feel like I’m not actually working when I’m creating content & doing some admin work. Which makes me lose motivation & then procrastinate. I don’t know how to fix my mindset & stay consistent with content creation?’   This juicy question was sent in the other day & I’m sure you’re nodding your head thinking … yeah I feel...

Do you ever feel like you’re doing things ‘wrong’ in your business? I’ve had those feelings many times over times since starting my business & I see loads of business owners driving themselves crazy because of this & some other common things. Like when you see things working for others but when you try those same things, they just don’t seem to get the same results. It’s frustrating right...

Honestly, before you started your business, how much did you actually think about the fact that you’d need to actually sell ‘things’? Because I really didn’t think about it at all. I was way more excited about the parts that came before getting clients & after getting clients. But not the actual getting clients bit! But the sad fact is that we all need paying clients to actually have a th...

My recent ‘overnight success’ in business has taken nearly 14 years! SERIOUSLY! I’m working with an exciting new client on a big project with their team & want to know how it ‘fell into my lap’? One of the key leaders in that company saw me deliver a talk about mindset … about 10 years ago! And going further back … the main reason I was invited to deliver that talk was because I was recommende...

When can we get back to ‘normal’? I’m hearing that a lot! But do you really want everything to go back to exactly the way it was before? When things don’t happen the way you expected or you experience a setback, it can be all too easy to want to run away from it as fast as you can. But has it all been ‘doom & gloom’? What about some of the unexpected benefits that have happened as a resul...

What’s get you the most traction in your business so far? For me, it’s been the power of collaborations & connections by far. But what I’ve found from my experience, these don’t work well if you are seeking them out with the mindset of .. ‘what’s in it for me?’ or ‘what can I get from this?’ Far from it actually. In this week’s podcast, I share more about how some of my most powerful collabora...

Do you see yourself as being a business owner or business leader or entrepreneur? Cause you’d be surprised at how many ex-corporate professionals who are now trying to grow their own business, still don’t make that identity shift!  I see it all the time & honestly, that was me too in the first couple of years too. I was still acting like an employee of my business, instead of really being...

My 17th birthday was approaching & I was super excited. I had the day planned months & months in advance. I was preparing for it & counting down the days. I couldn’t sleep much the night before, as my head was buzzing. Because on that very special day & had booked to go & sit an EXAM! Yep … sad I know … but I sat my driving theory test on my birthday morning. I swotted beforeha...
