We are a product of our environments; the way we think, act, and behave. It’s a fact.

The trick we must learn is to know who we should and shouldn’t listen to - and when.

Deploying your time effectively is the key to mastering entrepreneurship.

Time is your most precious resource. Guard it like you're an MI6 agent protecting the king.

Here’s how I do it…

What’s better - buying a business or starting one from scratch?

Which ones make more money? What sets you up for profitability much quicker?

I’ve tried both methods and learned which is best. Here’s what I’ve found…

Life serves me shortcuts and laziness at every corner, and it will for you too.

I urge you to avoid this cancer. It serves up short term happiness.

Discipline and good habits are essential ingredients that make a great business owner. It’s what makes anything good in life.

We must revel in difficulties. It’s where we’re made…

We can all put our "face" on when we need to.

As an entrepreneur, I get through things more than most. Well, I think I do.

But it’s also true that I have days when I don’t want to do it anymore. This is how I cope…

In a world of ordinary gestures, be extraordinary. 

People won’t always remember what gift you gave them, but they’ll never forget how you made them feel.

That’s exactly what I’m reflecting on in this week’s Letter.

I built a multi-million dollar teddy bear business from scratch.

I was bootstrapped, I didn’t have much cash to get it going, but I’ve grown it into a behemoth.

And I want you to do the same. I’ll break down exactly how I did it, in this blog…

The little things matter in business, even when you run a £40-million-annual-revenue behemoth.

You mustn’t get complacent. Keep an eye on the little things to stop them becoming a much bigger problem.

We can’t allow sloppy standards - people will stop coming. Then, we can’t pay wages and invest. Then, we’re done.

Beware: complacency kills…

If you have a business which has a low barrier to entry, that makes it far too easy for “me too” businesses to pop up and take a slice of your audience.

That is why rare and protected forms of leverage are crucial to set you apart from your competitors.

I often speak about this little trick at seminars, called The Rule of 4. It’s definitely a thought-provoker.

Like having two dishwashers. Once you do this, you’ll never go back.

It all starts with an entrepreneur’s knack for understanding human psychology…

Award-winning entrepreneur James Sinclair recently held an interactive YouTube Live session, to help struggling business owners navigate tough economic times and “embrace the winter to win”.

Great readers make great leaders.

So, what makes a good/great read for me? Without a doubt, it's real-life experience over theory.

Ideas are plenty; action-takers are a rare commodity.

These are the books that changed my life…

When you’re running a business, you want to be in the mindset that you’re running four companies in unison.

Now, you’re not actually running four separate companies. It’s a philosophy.

This is something I live by when building businesses.

While I certainly have my own opinions on politics, I rarely share them. I believe I’m the PM of my life.

You see, as entrepreneurs and go-getters, we are fortunate to always find opportunities regardless of the circumstances we are faced with…

It's an absolute fact that more businesses are struggling than ever before.

Running a business is like the seasons of the year. If you’ve watched Game of Thrones, you’ll know they often speak about the looming winter: “WINTER IS COMING!”

Well, it's here.

But there's no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing. Here’s how you can insulate yourself - and not just survive, but thrive…

I were in charge of the UK economy, and I was tasked with growing it while helping small businesses, this would be my election manifesto…

In this blog, I’ll break down all the points I think would seriously help entrepreneurs and business owners, while growing the UK economy.

What is it the top entrepreneurs and business owners are doing to achieve successful growth?

They’re thinking to themselves: “If I’m going to put some time, effort, money and energy into an entrepreneurial idea, can I scale this business?”

You need to think like an Investor-Preneur. Here’s how you can do just that, by scaling your business up.

Here’s a story about a Mars Bar and a pair of scissors - a story that holds immense power for entrepreneurs trying to establish profitable pricing in an increasingly competitive world.

If you’ve been following my previous blogs, podcasts and YouTube videos, you’ll have heard me say: “You should always build a business to sell, even if you have no intention of selling it.”

In order to reach that goal, you’ve got to commit it to pen and paper. Here’s how you should do that.

"They'll forget about the price, but they'll never forget how you made them feel.”

Here’s how simple retention tactics can guarantee long-term custom.
