I know exactly what I need to do. But I don’t always follow through on it. And I’ve realized that when there is something that I don’t know how to do, my reaction is to stop all together, and then start worrying.

We become self-employed because we want control over our lives and choose who we work with, what we charge and how we manage our work/life balance. If you were to take a step back and ask yourself how that’s working out for you, what would you reply? Read More »

Where are you in feeling passionate about your business? Do you greet each new day with the thrill and excitement, as it was when you first started?

Having time off over the Christmas period gave me chance to catch up on TV watching different programs I wouldn’t normal tune into. BBC News 24 at some crazy time early in the morning showed an interview with Richard Reed one of the founders of Innocent Drinks. Richard Reed founded Innocent in 1998 with two friends from Cambridge University, Adam Balon and Jon Wright. I found it highly refreshing to watch and listen to Richard who appeared very down to earth, honestly speaking about their extreme difficulties early on in ... Read More »
