Letting go can grow your business
In Episode 2 of Risking It All we meet Brad. He thinks he has spotted a gap in the already flooded health and fitness market and risks his relationship, friendships and investments to set up Zone Health and Fitness. He’s convinced his girlfriend, his ex-wife, her new husband and a silent partner to invest over $350,000 in his dream.
Staying motivated towards your goals
Goal setting is a very powerful tool in business and your personal life. Many of us set goals as New Year’s resolutions. We start off eagerly, determined to do things differently this year. It doesn’t take long before we start to waiver in our resolutions. The motivation is starting to fade and old habits are creeping back in.
Ditching the nine-to-five grind
We are thrilled to be airing episode 1 of Risking It All tonight at 8pm. The series portrays the roller-coaster ride of what is at stake when people attempt to get a new business off the ground. These rookies put friendships, family, secure salaries, houses and savings on the line in a bid to live their dream and make millions. In today's blog post I discuss what it takes to ditch the nine-to-five grind.
