There’s a doubt that’s been lurking in the back of my mind for the last 12 years. A worry that’s been gnawing at me. A concern that I’ve pushed to the deepest recesses of my mind in the hope that it wouldn’t prove to be true: “Did I just get lucky with StoryLearning?” Was it […]
Back in 2015, I was a fresh-faced young entrepreneur, wet behind the ears, not knowing my a** from my elbow. When I say “young”… I was 34. I’d just moved back to London from Egypt. My daughter was 2 months old. I was bringing in $2-3k a month, and even that wasn’t stable. Perilous. So […]
People have very distorted views of money and success. Often, they get it flat-out wrong. Take the myth of the 7-figure business. Tell the average online business owner that you have a 7-figure business, they’ll instantly peg you as “successful”. But this is a mistake. I call it the next level fallacy. It goes like this: […]
Here’s the problem with money… Everyone assumes that “scale” is the only game in town. Growth… scale… 10X baby! True — for many startups, it is all about growth. But, as an online business owner, you might have a different set of goals: Scale? Sure… At any cost? Not so much. Most online business owners would […]
About 6 years ago, my business coach gave me some advice that changed how I approached finance forever. I remember we were on our fortnightly call. In fact, I remember where I was – walking through Cherry Tree Woods in East Finchley (North London). Weird how we remember the smallest details. Anyway, I said to […]
A few years back, I invested 6-figures in a startup that I thought had great promise. Not long after, the founders decided to pivot — same niche, entirely new business model. I was against the move. My rationale was simple: What we’re doing is working. Better to stay focused and do the hard work. (Nothing […]
So, last weekend I was sitting in my garden enjoying a relaxing Hobbitshire sunset… When my phone started pinging. (Not literally pinging, because I don’t let my phone ping with anything. I guard my notifications tighter than a bitcoin wallet. So… metaphorically pinging. You get the idea.) It was coming at me from all sides… […]
Since 2013, I’ve spent most of my time trying to build “passive income”. And I did a good job of it. Built a multimillion-dollar business, made tens of millions, most of it “passively”. But now I feel let down. Like an influencer’s breakfast recommendation. Now, I’m not gonna go all “YouTube” on you and say […]
You know what gets my goat? People who torch their perfectly good businesses trying to “10x” them. Last week, I had coffee in London with a friend who runs a $2 million online education business. It’s a beautiful operation. He works about 10-15 hours a week. Takes home nearly a million in profit. And he’s […]
