Designing Your Ideal Workday04 Sep 202200:16:17
Welcome to Sunday's Solo Episode #475.   During this episode,I talk about how to design your ideal workday. This is NOT your dream retirement plan Richard Branson-style, sitting in your hammock after a game of tennis in your private island. This is based on reality... It's meant to be achievable where you can position yourself in the future, many years forward. Here are some highlights:
  • Always start your day with a positive mindset.
  • Don't just write your tasks. Visualise them. The more detailed and specific you are, the more successful you are in achieving your goals.
  • A plan is just a plan without any action. Visualising is the easy part. Actually doing the tasks is another thing.

The One Thing21 Aug 202200:12:14
Welcome to Episode #471.   During this episode, I talk about the one thing that stands between you and your goals.

Having just re-read the awesome book 'The One Thing' by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan for the nth time, I thought it's about time to share it and my thoughts with you. Here are some highlights:
  • The secret of getting ahead is getting started. The secret to getting started is breaking your complex, overwhelming tasks into small, manageable tasks.

Learning to Express Yourself & Be Heard with David Drebin10 Aug 202200:30:31
Welcome to Episode #468 with David Drebin, a world renowned photographer, artist and author.   During this episode, we talk about his passion for arts and photography and how he sees life through his camera. Here are some highlights:
  • It's important to build yourself and everything else will come. Have a lot of passion for what you do. But also have a sense of detachment. It's important to have that duality of passion and detachment.
  • It's NOT about people who don't believe in you. It's all about people who you don't believe in. Reverse it. Instead of looking for people to believe in you, find people that you believe in.
  • 99% of success and happiness depends on sleep, exercise, and hydration.
  • Relationships are like plants. If you stop watering them, they die in the end. It's so simple.
  • Social media is also a way to scale your brand instead of waiting for other people to promote you. Promote yourself in a clever way and build an audience. Provide value. Entertain or educate people.
  • For social media, it's important to post a lot, but reveal very little about yourself.
  • If you're looking for feedback from other people, you're relying on external gratification and that is dangerous. All gratification has to come internally.
  • The biggest battle is actually with yourself. It comes down to self acceptance or rejection.

Tribe of Millionaires with GoBundance & R360's Chris Ryan25 May 202201:15:15

Welcome to Episode #446 with Chris Ryan, an experienced entrepreneur, rainmaker, investor, turn-around specialist, and philanthropist. Chris is the CEO of GoBundance and Managing Partner of R360. 

During this episode, we talk about the past, reflecting on the years growing up and the importance of having a network surrounded by the right people and right organisation.  
Here are some highlights: 
A lot of our life is a roll the dice - where we're born, who our parents are, how we're educated, how we're raised, what trauma we go through his kids. Instead, focus on what we can control instead. Regardless of having success and accomplishment, think about if you have lived a life of value and morals and have characteristics that are admirable.
Sports is a great way of learning work ethics, the ability of be resilient and to be perseverant and good sportsmanship.
With the right work ethics, you don't have to be the smartest guy or the most successful guy or room - you will outwork everyone in every task or challenge. 
Money DOES NOT provide you the value and quality of life that you want.
Sometimes the best advice we get is not necessarily what we want to hear, but what we need to know.
Always look for ways and opportunity to redefine and recreate yourself.

Chartable & Spotify Taking Digital Audio to the Next Level with Dave Zohrob15 May 202200:58:13
Welcome to Episode #443 with Dave Zohrob, Co-Founder of Chartable, the leading podcast analytics and attribution service.   During this episode, we talk about all about podcasting and discuss why you need to have a podcast for your brand. Here are some highlights:
  • Good work takes time and through time, you get better at it.
  • If you're looking to build a business, the most important thing is solving important problems for customers. If it doesn't solve their problems, then it doesn't matter.
  • For a startup, everything takes longer to grow. Don't be impatient. There is so much to learn and so much to improve overtime. Start and continue working on.
  • Podcast is a way of going deep with someone. It's another way to connect with an audience in times where you might not be able to reach them otherwise.
  • Just like with every other type of media, podcasts are no different. We have to work to make sure that people are aware of what we're doing and that's the exciting creative journey to it.
  • It's not about how many impressions you're getting, it's about engagement. It's about who you're reaching and how much time they're spending with you. That's going to drive impact versus just pageviews.
  In celebration of Screw It Just Do It’s 5th Birthday Anniversary, Alex will be launching the Podcast Launch Challenge. It’s a Done-With-You solution in launching or relaunching your podcast!

Full details will be released on May 16th. Registration is only up to May 23rd.

Building a Global Beauty Brand with Celebrity Make-Up artist Christina Flach11 May 202200:42:48
Welcome to Episode #442 with Christina Flach, Celebrity Makeup and Hair Artist and creator and CEO of Pretty Girl Makeup.   During this episode, we talk about finding purpose through grief and managing and leading a successful business brand. Here are some highlights:
  • There's always going to be bumps in the road and you just have to learn to ride these waves.
  • Always have a plan A and plan B and hopefully you don't have to get to plan C.
  • To have a successful brand, you have to be a little gentler and kinder to your self. Focus on what you've completed today instead of sulking on what you haven't done. Try to stay in the positive frame of mind.
  • People tend to gravitate to people that have good positive attitude and good work ethics.
  • You have to be flexible in any of you business decisions. There is no failure. Failure is not trying at all. If one doesn't work, then try something new. All these bumps and obstacles are lessons and they are not failure.

The Money or The Glory?01 May 202200:11:58
Welcome to Sunday's Solo Episode #439.   During this episode, we talk about how you see you business right now. Are you still excited about what you're doing? Are you still passionate about your targets and goals? If it starts to become a grind, if you starts to question what you do, if it's all about the money, then it's time to pause and analyse things because your journey is got to be bigger than that.

  • If you're feeling you've plateaued, don't be afraid to take the time out.

  • In building a business, it's important for key players to have different skill sets. Working together and combining these skills will help grow and achieve business success.
  • When starting a business, it is common to rely more on feeling as compared to having actual data. But as the business grows, gathering and making use of data is crucial. It will help you improve your products, your categories and strategised your product launches.
  • Make sure that your business have diversified cash and the business model is resilient and can' t be easily knocked over by one situation or event.

Could Your Business Run Without You24 Apr 202200:16:59
Welcome to Sunday's Solo Episode #437.   During this episode, we talk about how I've got Covid-19 after 2 years of feeling invincible and evading it. In the middle of 48 hours of feeling sick and horrendous, I've been thinking of several thoughts and one of them is "Could Your Business Run Without You". We've heard a lot of businesses turning upside down during the pandemic and it's a good exercise to plan in advance for these kinds of scenario. Here are some highlights:
  • If you can systemise and automate your processes, do so.
  • If your just starting your business, make sure that you got your first hire right.
  • I encourage you to employ a PA (personal assistant) or VA (virtual assistant)
  • For business owners, the last thing you want is not making a decision. It's better to make a bad decision than no decision at all.
