Do What You Love

Description

Learn how to work on your business, not in your business, do what you love and outsource everything else. As business owners we have a habit of trying to do everything ourselves, and as martial artists we are used to controlling our minds, controlling our bodies and managing everything around us. But to be successful in your school you need to be able to let go and and break the control mindset.

Gordon urges you to to love what you do and set yourself free, and as a result you will become more creative, make a difference and serve others. Discover how to do what you do and love what you do in today’s inspiring episode.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Most martial arts business owners have a pattern of control running in their business and in their minds.
Break the control mindset, it's a delusion. You have no freedom and you feel stressed and whilst you're trying to control everything, you're really controlling nothing
Ensure you get someone in your business that will do that things you’re not great at. You need people around you that love the things that you don’t love.
Dissect your business and break it up into job roles and the type of people you need in order to fulfil those roles. Don’t have the mindset that staff and people are an expensive to your business, staff and people are a huge asset to your business.

BEST MOMENTS

"There's a pattern of control in martial arts business"

"Previously I had a massive control over my environment and believed I was the only one who could get it done"

"There's always someone who can do it better than you, no matter who you are"

“Consider how much your time is worth to you”

I don’t have enough time. This WILL help.

DESCRIPTION

Do you ever catch yourself saying ‘I don’t have enough time?’ do you wear the ‘busy badge of honor’, but ask yourself; what are you busy doing? In today’s episode, Gordon dives into the the effects of time and how you too can start to manage yourself better, be more productive and outsource everything.

Time doesn't stand still for anybody, but it is by far our most precious commodity. If you want to be successful in anything in life, you need to be able to manage yourself and manage your time. Gordon shares the simply mindset changes you need to make in order to adapt and thrive.

Learn how to compartmentalise your day, diarise your tasks and plan your week and remove any excuses, because we all have just 24 hours per day, including the rich and successful, so challenge yourself to get more done and achieve your goals.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If you say you don’t have enough time, that's probably a delusion in itself, it’s not a reality. The successful people don’t have anymore time than you, it’s how you manage yourself in that time that’s important
Consider what’s most important to you in your business and identify what your goals and dreams are. Think about what you’re doing each day to achieve your goals and focus on the taks that will get them achieved.
Do more of what you love and outsource everything else and you will be more productive. Work out the £10 tasks and anything that would cost £10 or less, outsource it. Work out your hourly rate as a person and know your worth, because you can you can earn more money doing other things, such as teaching in your business.
