When I began my own Mastermind, I was teaching people not only property strategies but also about the mindset required Sometimes people are not afraid of failing they can also be afraid of success. Your business is a vehicle to take you from where you are now to where you want to be. Where you want to be is living life on your terms to able to engineer your life the way you want to. Your vision needs to be compelling and in-line with your core values. You need to go through the process of establishing what your core values are Trial and error is too expensive it’s a false economy If someone can shorten the learning curve you will get a return on your investment Having the right people around you is key. You need people who are doing the same thing as you Be around  people who have the same mindset and  challenges as you There is always time, it’s about managing your time effectively. The key is to start with a step and then take the next step. If you have someone to help you create a blueprint it’s much easier than trying on your own. If you are trying to do something that is not congruent with your values it’s likely you will self-sabotage You need to look at your self-beliefs and what’s really holding you back   BEST MOMENTS ‘I’ve been mentoring for over a decade now’ ‘A compelling vision has to be connected to your core values’ ‘Find the right sort of mentor and surround yourself with the right people’   VALUABLE RESOURCES Business, Wealth and Mindset podcast series    ABOUT THE GUEST There was a knock on Akhtar’s door. The letting agent at his first apartment had notified him that his landlord was coming to pick up the mail. What the letting agent hadn’t told him was that the landlord was twenty-one years old. Just another lad you would pass by on the street was now the man Akhtar had to hand over his hard-earned money to pay the rent, every month. A fire had been lit under his arse. Ten years later, lots of hard work allowed Akhtar to buy his first property. Since then, Akhtar Khan has become a well-established name within London’s property and real-estate circles.
