[28:30] Overcoming Perfectionism and the Value of Authentic Leadership
5 Powerful Quotes
[3:03] “I realized that [to] be more open about one's failures, or the challenges that have happened over your career or over your life, rather than being something that you need to hide and push down… if you have the confidence and courage, and it does take some to be a bit more open about is something that actually can connect you to people and takes a lot of anxiety away from you as well.
[7:21] “…there was a really fine line between being so overly open, that you actually discredit yourself and being vulnerable enough and human enough or grounded enough to make people feel relatable to you. And that you also are not perfect, and you've [never had been] perfect to get that position.”
[9:59] “I do think that you only really learn with it when things are bad. No, of course, you do some learning and some developing when things are all right, and things are going okay. But it's tiny in comparison to when things are tough… or things are going wrong or something's failed, that is where the real development happens.”
[28:43] “...perfectionism gets in the way of a lot of things…I think it is to some extent, a strength because you meet people who've got high standards. They put lots of pressure on themselves. They want to deliver things and that's great, but when it tips over, and often it does, I think it really is an inhibitor.”
[31:45] “There are some technical roles where actually it's all about IQ…you have to have enough IQ to be competent. Beyond that, more and more and more IQ does not equal more and more and more performance. Yeah. But EQ is what it's about.”

The Power of Habits and a Positive Mindset: How Tony Humberstone Built a Thriving Business
Being rejected hurts — and even if it happens again and again, it doesn't get any easier. The pain of getting doors slammed to your face, receiving rejection emails to your job applications, or being ignored scars a person.
But that doesn’t have to be the end of your story.
In this episode of The Mindset Mentor Meets, Angela Cox meets with Vooba Founder and CEO Tony Humberstone to talk about his journey from being a humble door-to-door salesman to building a successful digital marketing agency, all the while maintaining a close relationship with his family.
Having braved multiple rejections and even falling into a health slump, Humberstone shares how he overcame all the obstacles in his life through a positive mindset and building good habits. It might sound cheesy, but this episode details how he applied that in his life and how that changed everything for him.
Change starts from that one positive thought. Passion fuels it, and discipline allows it to go on. Let's dive into Tony Humberstone's story and learn all about his journey toward success.

[15:54] 'I ended up doing five [triathlons], but the first one I did, I mean, literally, I was crawling over the finish line. It wasn't a particularly amazing time, but it then inspired me to obviously get better at it and work a bit harder.'
[23:37] ‘Just going back to the story about knocking on doors: a lot of people hated it, because you would knock on a lot of doors and get a lot of rejection. But I'd always keep going, thinking this next door might be that golden ticket.’

[13:02] ‘I can do that now from a place of knowing that I have really fantastic, kickass tools to share and also storytelling. I can do that from a place of authenticity.

Authentic Guide to Building a Fulfilling Life with Tarinee Pandey
What does it take to find success? For Tarinee Pandey, it was a twofold lesson of learning to come from a place of humility in all things and to take pride in what you've accomplished.

Working to Live: Finding the Balance with Rob Regan
What's the most important thing to you in life? Most people would say something like friends, family, or living comfortably. But how much of your time goes to those things? More often than not, 'successful' people spend almost all their days in their careers, unable to be with the things they say are the most important.
This episode delves into the concept of "working to live" as we explore Rob Regan's journey. He describes the three most powerful years in his life and how they all involve the most important things to him: family, rugby, and work. Most executives get completely stuck at the office, but Rob has found the balance between work and the rest of his life.
As for how he did it, sometimes we really have to take a terrifying step away from what we've been doing all our lives. If you're wondering how to get back to what you love the most while still managing your career — and, frankly, the rest of your life — then this episode is for you.

5 Powerful Quotes
[04:18] 'I'm not a great rugby player. My rugby life and my work life are very similar, which is: bags of effort, and no talent.'
[16:22] ‘I finally realised that doing the right thing for yourself and your family was much more important than work — and it was absolutely terrifying. But I stepped away and decided I was going to retire.'
[24:48] ‘I could never imagine me: thick-skinned, cauliflower ear, Welsh rugby bloke being able to say stuff that would help people and make a difference in our space.’
[27:06] 'Every day is still a school day. I've got all the same flaws I've always had, but I'm getting better at recognising them.'
[34:14] 'I wasn't always the best version of myself; I didn't always treat people the way that they deserve to be treated. I tried to correct some of that later on with some individuals, and they kind of look at you a bit, "Well, shame you didn't think of that 10, 15 years ago, but you can't change the past," and what I'll do is do a better job.
About Rob
Rob Regan is the CEO of the Principality Building Society, a multi-billion pound building society.

Once you’ve hit rock bottom, there’s nowhere to go but up. Today’s world is rife with opportunity — technology has opened the gateway for every aspiring entrepreneur to make an impact on the planet, no matter how small their start is. Not every successful enterprise starts with a million-dollar loan. Sometimes, it's just a college student sleeping in a garage.
In this episode, Daniel Priestley takes us through the three proudest moments of his entrepreneurial journey. Daniel’s journey started when he was 15, working in McDonald's — a job he takes pride in — to being flat broke at 18, and where he is now: running multiple 7-figure companies at 42. We dive deep into his secret to running multiple successful businesses (hint: low expectations), his secret to consistent success, and what it takes to build a dream team.
There's never been a better time than now to start a business. If you're an aspiring entrepreneur, this episode is definitely for you.

5 Powerful Quotes
[16:23] “I realised that it was only me that was experiencing them as a crowd — they were experiencing me as a one-to-one. They're sitting in their chairs, looking at someone on the stage, and I'm having a one-to-one interaction with them.”
[27:44] “If you ever see a tortoise on top of a fence post, you can be guaranteed that it didn’t get there on its own. It had some help. I’m that tortoise. Think about it like this: if you’ve got a hundred people on a team, you’ve got eight hundred hours a day, so there’s eight hundred hours a day going into the business. You can accomplish a lot with a hundred people.”
[30:39] “You need to find a partner that you would exit to who can take it bigger and brighter than ever before so that they're well equipped to go to that next level.”
[32:24] “If you want the feeling of what success feels then have low expectations. Because if you have high expectations, you're never going to experience the feeling of success.”
[39:07] “I don't think there's ever been a better time where you could just simply build the business of your dreams in record time and make a huge impact doing it.”
