Can you do this when you’re growing a business? The answer lies in distinguishing between what’s urgent and what’s important. You can put your phone away on sports day and still be successful.• There is a solid connection between regularly writing down your goals and your ability to spot opportunities. It also builds the confidence you need to take the risks your business needs to grow. David shares tips on how to do this and make it into a disciplined practice that will serve you for years to come.• Why tweaking the rudder just one per cent can take you to where you want to go. Tiny habits build into a bigger picture, so it doesn’t always have to be about the big jumps.• The value of looking back as well as looking forward. You’re able to live in the gain of what you’ve accomplished rather than the gap that causes stress and anxiety.• What drives entrepreneurs to keep working well into their 80s? A sense of purpose, connection and doing good. When it’s not work, there’s no need to retire. So we should think about what we’re retiring to not just from. What if retirement was more than just the finish line? An episode full of moments of reflection, it asks deep questions but in a way that makes so much sense. Why shouldn’t we show up as ourselves in our business? Why shouldn’t we prioritise our health and spend time with the people we love? That’s why we set up business for ourselves in the first place. Own your business rather than it owning you to improve your chances of living a long and happy life.If you’ve enjoyed this...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/yDHv2qxP6FC6kuI6nPuY0_RYfLW2nnYaGAbz7DmOgzU/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzEyNzUxLzE2MjY3/ODI5MTctYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
