Protecting your Mind 🧠💭 As you start to break out your old patterns or try something new or extreme, the people around you will unconsciously try to stop you. "be careful" "don't over do it" "you will end up like ..." YOU MUST FIGHT THIS RESISTENCE FROM OTHERS & YOURSELF In this video I talk about: 1) Naysayers and their negative thinking. 2) The fact that the ego is trying to protect you but it also stops you. 3) The fight for your focus. You must guard what you allow to get into your subconscious mind because whatever gets in, results in the actions you take, or don't take. ACTIONS: - Connect to your purpose - Positive affirmations - Dissacociate with naysayers - Associate with positive like-minded people - Be conscious of what's in your mind - SPEED (take action before fear has a chance to kick in)

Structuring Deals & Making More Profit In this video you will learn how to structure deals(in my case 15% extra by making this simple change), make more profit while also delivering extra value to your clients. *Also an important hidden lesson in this video about taking ideas or strategies from other industries.

Not Afraid To Fail The lessons I learned from an unsuccessful Facebbook LIVE I had planned today with Naz Haque and when this has happened in the past, multiple times. When technology fails and prevents an event from happening it does determine what way the Facebook Live goes and it used to affect the way my day went.

How To Make Your Money Make Money - Ben's Business Podcast #97 Here's some of Naz's key lessons he shared: - there is no way to get rich quick - save for the future - don't put all your money in the bank - study the habits of the wealthy - save/allocate your monthly income with a formula 60,20,10,10 etc - If I had 5,10,15-20k, I'd invest in index funds via Vanguard or Black Rock. - Look at a Lifetime ISA and speak to a professional, I'm just here to make you aware of what's available to you (21mins in the video) - If you put money into investment platforms, make sure you choose one with 85k savings protection, and they keep your money separate from their money - invest in dividend-paying shares - if I want to invest in companies, I choose companies I know, use and love. Or, I trust in them being open to evolving. - think like a producer, not a consumer - don't put all your eggs in one basket - I feel its better to invest in stocks than in property in the UK. - if you spend money, use a credit card and always get cashback - get rewarded by banks for opening accounts with them - if you have a lot of money and are interested in investing in companies, look at EIS/SEIS. - always have a budget in life as a benchmark, don't be a prisoner to your budget and don't feel bad about it - Top 3 easily digestible financial education books to read. If I'm going to invest in other companies for the future, I look at how the world is shifting. I state there is no way to predict the market and I'm not the smartest guy. I choose to invest in companies for the future if the company and their offering is a) politically acceptable b) socially acceptable c) scalable c) environmentally acceptable/good for the planet

This was a fun interview with my friend Naz Haque, who's not your typical SEO and Marketing Consultant.

Naz shares with us his wisdom and journey of moving from the corporate world to living a more passionate life and taking an entrepreneurial path to success, fulfilment and purpose.

Here's 3 key areas we covered:

1. SEO in 2020 (How to rank high on Google) 25:00 2. Meditation & Superconsciousness. 34:00 3. Managing Money Like The Rich. 1:12:00

Please let us know if you watch the #replay and found value.

In today's Live video, my good friend Virr Haria joined us to share some of his key takeaways from a recent workshop he attended in London by Manmeet Kaur Chowdhry founder of Optimum Performance Solutions.

Virr and I both love learning about many different models and philosophies, and we've focused a lot on self mastery over the last 2 years because we understand that at the end of the day, all the projects you're involved with are a reflection of you.

So the more you grow, they more powerful your businesses and ventures can be!
