When you talk to others it can be easy to think everyone is successful all of the time but it’s important to understand there is a flip side. Every journey to achieve your goals will bring both success and challenges. It is the challenges that are the learning and perseverance, belief and vision are what you need to make it happen.

I’m a constant learner and still learning. It’s easy to have a job that’s ok and become comfortable and too scared to make a change. Initially, I planned to do property investing part-time but discovered that it was my passion and what I wanted to do with all of my time. When we lost our portfolio in the last recession it caused depression and anxiety. People focus only on the success but need to understand there is a flip side. It’s about staying true to your vision and understanding there is always a way. The ‘how’ is not what’s important it’s your belief and vision will get you there. Don’t give up its always about pushing forward and learning from your mistakes. If you are surrounded by positive people the magic will happen. The lesson is about perseverance -  it’s vital to keep moving towards your goals. It’s OK to not know where it’s going if you can move forward positively. It’s not about what you know it’s what you do with it It can go wrong and it can be painful but you can come through it and be successful if you persevere.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Falling and picking yourself up is a part of the process and persevering is the key to being an entrepreneur’ ‘You can’t buy them all’ ‘Training focused on no money down property investment and creative financing was all about being the middle man’   VALUABLE RESOURCES Business, Wealth and Mindset podcast series    ABOUT THE HOST Alex is a prize-winning chartered accountant with experience in financial markets from trading finance, capital hedging, structural foreign exchange and interest rates to operational risk from the world’s top financial and advisory institutions including Deloitte, RBS and JPMorgan Chase Alex has been involved in property development programmes across different types since 2008, building and managing a portfolio that includes standard buy-to-lets, student accommodation and other houses in multiple occupancy (HMOs).
