The Biggest Mistakes I’ve Made In Business

Share This Post

Just because we gain more experience over time in business, doesn’t necessarily mean that we stop making mistakes. In this candid episode, Nick opens up about the mistakes he’s made, the lessons he’s learned from each one, and the ways in which you can avoid the same setbacks.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • The more polarising you are, the better. If you’re existing solely in the “grey area” then you’re not standing out to anyone.
  • When you set goals that are harder to achieve than you believe – a moonshot – then even if you only get 70% of the way there, you’ll still have achieved excellence.
  • If you’re not scaling or growing quickly right now, you may need to ask yourself if you have strong enough partnerships in place to allow you to achieve your goals.
  • Cash reserves are wise to have, but you also need to make sure you’re investing in growth. If you don’t, then you risk breaking the growth cycle.

BEST MOMENTS

  • ‘It doesn’t matter what stage of business you’re at, you can still repeat patterns’
  • ‘What would happen if you elevated your thinking?’
  • ‘You cannot build something substantial alone’
  • ‘Cash flows to people who value it most, from people who value it least’
