Entrepreneur Life

E41: Early morning drive to Somerset

I do not usually drive early hours in the morning to Shepton Mallet Prison, I prefer to travel down the day before, but it is a beautiful spring morning, so I will not complain too much. A busy day of meetings planned! 

E40: It’s not always rosy!

I am back in the office and I just cannot be arsed! And a calling sicky is not an option! Why do I feel like this? I do not know as there is no reason but recognising that not every day is going to be a good day is so important!  

E39: Homeward bound!

We are on our way home from South France, a 900-mile journey ahead of us, I am still getting to grips with the new car and how it works, but a few charges later and we are doing ok! Just one thing though... Can someone count the number of times I say the word charge in this video? I have lost count already!

E38: I am skiing!

I am enjoying a much needed break out on the slopes with my family. Being a CEO has not always got to be about work, family time is just as important.  

E37: All the gear, no idea?

After a long wait and many discussions, I finally have my new car, but why is it that I can run million-pound businesses, but I cannot figure out how to turn the lights on? And just when you think that is bad, the car is about to run out of electric and I do not know how the chargers work either... It looks like I have all the gear, but no idea? Let us see how this one end... 

E36: Deal or no deal?

The day has finally come to pick up the new car! But I've just pulled out of the deal... Why? Well, you will have to find out! In the meantime, a company I am extremely interested in has gone into administration... A phone call or two is needed!  

E35 – Enjoy the journey

Being an entrepreneur is like being on a roller coaster, the challenges you may face will bring you the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. The idea is to have more highs than lows and that comes from the vision that drives me every day. 

E34: Proven wrong.

When proven wrong, I am not one to hide it. And I was in-fact proven wrong! But besides that, there is a lot happening at Shrewsbury Prison, the money has finally arrived from the solicitor, and we will soon have ownership of more land! Spring is just around the corner so all hands-on deck to get the weeds pulled and sprayed before they become too overgrown!  The glamorous life of a CEO!

E33: Productivity

I am finding that as I grow older, my mind is changing. I am more productive in the morning in comparison to how I used to be, where most of my work was done late into the evening.  In this episode, if you listen, you might just learn something! 

E32– Am I losing my mind?

It has been a tough few days with so much going on! I have recently stopped to think, am I losing my mind? Stress and Anxiety would like to make me think that anyway! Reducing stress is key, but with so much to do it is not always that easy...
