Summary

Rob discusses why having a mentor and asking for help is so important when growing yourself and taking yourself or your business to the next level. It’s important to have support especially when you’re supporting others because supporting others can often drain your time and energy. Listen to this episode to find out how you can take yourself to your next level quicker…    KEY TAKEAWAYS  A lot of people say you should learn from your mistakes which is common sense. But it’s not 'uncommon sense', i.e. contrarian common sense. So don’t learn from your mistakes, learn from others.   We all make mistakes, I still do, however, I would make way more if it wasn’t for my wise counsel, mentors, good peer group etc…  If you get offered a decent amount of money for your company in a recession, then you should seriously consider the offer because you don’t know what will happen a few years later down the line. Don’t be greedy.  If you want to go to your next level, then YOU can only get YOURSELF there as quickly as you can figure it out, without having the knowledge of being there. It’s going to take a longer time than learning from someone who’s already been there because they’ve already figured it out.  You need someone to support you especially when you support others. Supporting others can leave you feeling drained and empty so you need someone to someone to support you.  A really really strong peer group is important, don’t suffer alone.   People are often top busy to support you so a benefit of having paid for support such as a mentor is that they are held accountable to you.    BEST MOMENTS  ‘Don’t learn from your mistakes, learn from others’  ‘Talk to people who have gone through the process.’  ‘Leverage the experience, time, mistakes and investments of others.’  ‘If you can’t get below market value, you have to add value or change the use.’  ‘To know and not to do is not to know.’  ‘One of the greatest strengths of successful people is to ask for help.'     [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.
