There are many generalisations and stereotypes out there, with certain assumptions made about the state of things - but why do we do it? In this episode, Shaz and Kieron explain why generalisations are so often used.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Generalisations and assumptions are a shortcut way for our brains to understand something. If we have a starting point about what to think, it gives us a starting point.
• If we subconsciously drift through our days and use generalisations as our pathfinders, we fail to take advantage of the many opportunities that await.

BEST MOMENTS

'The speed of thought is faster than you think it is'

'It depends on how we perceive somebody and see them'

Shaz discusses exit planning, and how it is one of the most important parts of not just closing out your time in a business, but also one of the fundamental parts of setting up a business at the beginning.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Exit planning is the act of thinking about how we will move on from what we are doing. This means setting in place a time frame, and a methodology for doing so.
• Many do not consider the perfect exit, because it seems so far away. However, if you have the end goal in mind from the beginning, you can better shape the future for yourself.
• Designing the perfect exit means learning how to maximise the value of your business, eliminate the parts that don't work, and ensure that it can be a profitable concern for someone else, going forward.

BEST MOMENTS

'How do I now pass this on to the next generation?'

'It's a bit like handing your notice in'

'How do we strategically get to the end goal that we set in the leanest, quickest, best way possible'

Shaz discusses the state of the economy in the property sector, and how the inflation rises and interest rates are affecting investors and homeowners in the UK today.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Printing money in order to prop up the economy will always have after effects, and inflation is demonstrating that for us all right now.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• In almost all cases, there's a better way of doing something. If we have a closed mindset, then we will fail to take advantage of these opportunities.
• if you have an open mindset about improving and doing things in a better way, you will allow yourself to broaden your horizons.
• Businesses that proclaim that their practices are ingrained because they've "always done things this way", can often find themselves at a loss when asked to explain why this is.

Shaz discusses what it takes to drive growth in your property business, scale to the next level, and achieve the life-changing results you want.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Growth begins with a stripped back view of the essentials and basics in your property empire. Sometimes, the layers we add along the way can obfuscate the view we need to have.
• Implement systems and processes that will allow your business to operate without you in it. If that can take place, then you can focus on the growth while the profits still roll in.
• Business owners and entrepreneurs are people who work incredibly hard and diligently, but they also work as smart as possible. Never waste effort.

BEST MOMENTS

'We start with the foundations'

'You need to have a cookie-cutter process'

'Make the best use of every moment that you have'

• When we transform and grow in terms of mindset, the changes come thick and fast. It's not an overnight process. It takes longer than we may believe.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• People aspire to owning their own property and to add property to their legacy and assets list. Shifting from owning to renting seems like a backward step, but it doesn't have to be.
• If the numbers work, then renting a home while leasing out your bought home to pay bills is a strategy that should definitely be considered.
• Paying off credit and lowering the amount of interest you have to find each month will save you huge sums every year.

BEST MOMENTS

'This is a big mindset shift for a lot of people'

'This can make a difference of thousands of pounds'

'Money likes adaptability'

Shaz discusses the value of thorough research, and why we should always do our due diligence and put the effort in when it comes to fact finding in the modern world.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• People seem to spend as little time as possible in gaining the answers they seek, largely due to the internet and free access to information. But we should always be doing our due diligence when it comes to fact finding.
• Effort should always be applied to any task. You have to put in the hard graft when you want to increase your knowledge base.
• Research is like anything - once you've applied yourself a few times, it gets much easier. Once you know where to look, the shortcuts begin to appear.
