KEY TAKEAWAYS In your business, it is important to leverage, to work on your business, to think, plan, dream, talk, listen and meet important people however the most important thing you can do is be consistent. Consistency is more important than hard work because the more consistently you do something the better at that thing you can become. Although you may start out as a movie, doing one thing consistently will turn you into a success. If you do improvements steadily and consistently, you are going to win in the end. Part of the reason people struggle to be consistent is that they are often told how much hard work it is going to be and therefore are put off by it. Turn hard into simple in your head, and then it will not overwhelm you as much. The harder we think something will be, the less likely we are to want to do it. Learn on the go, as you go not before you go. Start now and get perfect later. The more rejections you get the more success you get as long as you learn from each rejection. You could argue the longer something takes, the better it is in the end. Learn, test, review, tweak, repeat. You will get better the more you do, the more you test. You will learn on the go the more you go.

RANT: Should You BLOCK Haters? [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors]
Blocking the haters, trolls and critics is more than just a yes or no question. Today, Rob discusses how you can learn from the critics and the haters to help you grow, innovate, create and become more resilient in business and in life because, in reality, they’ll teach you more about your business than your fans and help you improve on your product or service, get a balanced view of the market and understand the actual value of what you’re offering. Tune in to understand how to overcome critics, trolls, haters and w**kers in today’s insightful episode of the Disruptive Entrepreneur. KEY TAKEAWAYS A critic is someone who has constructive feedback that is sometimes wrapped up in a negative comment that as an entrepreneur and business owner you can learn from if you don’t react emotionally to it and actually listen to what is being said. A lot of people turn critics into haters by lashing out and getting aggressive in return, simply by misreading the critic’s initial comment. A hater is someone who hates the industry and hates what you represent this doesn’t mean they hate you as an individual, they could hate themselves or hate your product or service due to a bad experience. There are also hater that used to be critics but become haters because of how you dealt with them or how you reacted to them. A troll is a fake profile that needs to be reported and can really affect you and others around you. It’s up to you to decide if it’s worth listening to a critic or a hater, it’s up to you to figure out if there is value in what they’re saying and if you can improve your product, service, understand your industry better or learn from competitions. However, you must block them if they hurt you, trigger you or cause you to lose time out of your day or weekend. You can also get your VA or outsourcer to monitor the hater for constructive feedback. As a business owner, you need to know what your fans, followers and customer are saying, but you also need to know what the critics and haters are so that you can get a balanced view of your company and see the opportunities to improve. If you have enough self-worth that you understand what a critic, hater or troll is and how to react to their comments then you do not need to block them out, you need to learn from them because there is wisdom in there. Critics, haters and competitors force you to innovate and create a better product or service. As entrepreneurs, you have a cognitive bias and by embracing the critics and learning from the haters you will become more resilient in business and improve your product offering. BEST MOMENTS“A lot of people get upset when they get criticised because they want to be judged in the way that they want”“You don’t get to decide how people will criticise you”“You should embrace critics, want to learn from them and realise that they’ll teach you more than your fans.”“Critics will help you improve on your product or service, help you get a balanced view of the market and understand the actual value of what you’re offering.”“There’s a blessing in every stressing” [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter https://robmoore.com/podbooks rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

James Reed: How to Master Hiring Staff with CEO & Chairman of Reed Recruitment [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors]
Rob is joined by James Reed, Chairman of Reed, Britain’s biggest recruitment brand and worth over a billion pounds today. James describes how he started out in business, how Reed started and how it grew into the business and brand that it is today. If you’re looking to gain insights and advice from one of the most influential entrepreneurs and business owners, don’t miss out on this in-depth interview today. Tune in to discover how to start, grow and scale your business, how to strategically plan your business decisions, why mastering negotiation is essentials to success and why having the right mindset will help you succeed in business with the chairman of the world’s largest family-owned recruitment company, James Reed. Key Takeaways. Take us through your journey? I suppose I am curious about learning and I am interested in entrepreneurship. My first job was in a cemetery to earn money before I went to college, it was hard work, it was in winter and I had to level graves. It was pretty educational because it made me realise I didn’t want to do hard physical work, all my life. I then started working for Anita Roddick, she is the founder of The Body Shop with her husband Gordon, and I was really impressed by her ethos and sense of purpose because it was all about fair trade and not testing on animals, she had a really strong message and brand and I wanted to learn from her. Do you think writing letters to people is more successful than email? Yes, I do, when you email someone you are piling up their inbox but when you write to somebody it is very rare and it stands out more. It is a good way of preempting a job application and that’s what I did with Anita Roddick, I saw that she was having some problems, I wrote to her directly and I became caudate of one rather than a candidate of 100. Any way we can differentiate ourselves, and come across as somebody with personality and character is much stronger. How old were you when you attended Harvard? I was 25, it was really tough. You started your study group at 7:20 in the morning and you worked really hard, and you learned a lot. I then came back and got a job at the BBC in production, I loved that I was a trainee producer for a little bit. You have both higher education and experience working in your family business, which one taught you the most? What is interesting is when I went to Harvard, my Dad actually applied and came over too. He did a course for entrepreneurs. I was the first member of our family to go to university, and even though my father left school at 16 with not any O levels, he was really big on education and he learned at night school to be an accountant. The difference is when you study at a university you consider a lot of ideas and see a lot of other people’s experiences, but you’re not actually doing it yourself. It is all very well having a theory but tries and it in practice, and I have learned that since. Try and take people with you, create a moon purpose, build energy around whatever you’re doing, that is really human and that is what I learned from my father. You have been very partly responsible for the growth of your family business, can you tell us how you grew Reed? I think it is always important to be growing, our strategy is very simple. It is to grow organically, we haven’t grown it by acquisition. There are only two ways you can grow organically, one is through exceptional service and the other is through innovation and new ideas. If you can deliver a good service to people that they appreciate, they will come back and they will also recommend you to other people, we take that very seriously. Innovation is also a big part of our DNA. We are always looking for new ideas and we are always skint people for their ideas. What justifies recruitment agency fees? You can negotiate your price, but I always say, if a recruitment agent is charging your company a very low fee, where are they going to send their best candidates? There is a huge behind the scenes cost of running a recruitment agency. We spend 20 million pounds on advertising, millions on IT, we have over 3500 staff. So there’s a lot of time and investment put into that. All the best and biggest recruiters in the UK use our website. If you’re paying a big fee you should expect a really good service and a really strong shortlist and ultimately a really good hire. If you have a good recruiter alongside you who know what you’re looking for, that’s a really important relationship. How do you probe to get the mindset of somebody and look beyond the CV? Characters are everything in the end. You have to embark on a conversation where you can find out as much as you can. The thing that people most care about is integrity, but if you ask a bunch of school kids “what are you looking for you when you go for a job interview?” They never come up with that. There’s a really mean question in my interview book which is “where does your boss think you are right now?” So unless you have taken the time off, if your boss thinks you are with a client or working from home, that’s an issue. What is the best advice you have ever received? Be nice to people and to try and have an idea every day. What is the worst advice you have ever received? To not do things that I have ignored and always turned out quite well. Or when people have told me “Be more careful” or “It won’t succeed” often they’re right but the comfort of a pessimist is being proven correct, but there is nothing better than proving them wrong. What does the word disruptive mean to you? I am not sure it is positive! It has become more ambivalent to me if disruption is good or bad? I think we have entrepreneurs have a duty to think about that, and maybe come up with some new ideas to address that. I love change, I love the challenge of improvement. BEST MOMENTS: “Getting the right people into your organisation is game-changing” “Some ideas have succeeded, and some have failed, but the combination of the two has led us to where we are today” “The difference between hiring someone who is fantastic and hiring one who is a disaster can make or break a business” ABOUT THE GUEST: James Reed is the Chairman of REED – Britain’s biggest and best-known recruitment brand and the largest family-owned recruitment company in the world. James first joined the company in 1992 after graduating from Harvard Business School. Since then REED has become a billion-pound business and reed.co.uk – the first of its kind, established in 1995 – is the UK’s number one recruitment site. James is a regular media commentator, with TV appearances including BBC News, Sky News, BBC Radio 2 and The Apprentice. He has contributed insight to a wide range of publications including the Financial Times, Harvard Business Review and the Sunday Times. James is also a best-selling author of three books.

Caffeine Cast: Success & Failure: The Fundamental Differences [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors]

Tune in to hear Rob reverse engineer the traits of the greats and quantify why some of us just don’t make it. Discover the common traits among successful students and what you can do to help you succeed in business and in life. KEY TAKEAWAYS Common traits among successful students. A balance between persistence and patience. They do the work, they keep pushing their message but they face some rejection. But they’re aware that success can take time and sometimes longer than you plan. Success is balance. Continued education and personal development. Learning doesn’t stop at one course or one lesson it’s a continual process that is essential to success. Continued improvement. Making mistakes happen all of the time, the key is fixing the problem and learning from them. Always aim to take feedback, learn from it and never get complacent. Passion, energy, and enthusiasm. Don’t burn out in the beginning, keep a continual passion for what you’re doing and own it every day. Network. Your peer group will pull you up and give you tips, tricks, and advice on how to grow and scale. Mentors. People are either lifting you up or pulling you down. Aim to surround yourself with successful people, mentors and those that are where you want to be. Putting yourself out there. If you continually put yourself out there, meeting people and networking you will learn and grow incredibly fast. The best form of learning is osmosis so surround yourself with the people that have the experience that you want and the skills that you desire. Consistency. Just commit to doing it, be consistent and success will happen in the end. Commitment is a mindset that can take you a long way. Asking for help. Everyone has pride and everyone feels vulnerable but asking for help can be the biggest driver to success. BEST MOMENTS“It’s easy to do it when your up and high but hard when you’re down and low”“You can’t fight life”“The test of you is when life isn’t going well”“There’s always 20-30% of people that have the right intentions and desire to succeed but life just gets in the way and the trick is finding out if what got in the way was an unlucky circumstance or an excuse?”“There’s a significant group of people that jump from one trend to another and suffer from ‘shiny penny syndrome’ and when it gets hard they look for an easier way out.” [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter https://robmoore.com/podbooks rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

RANT! SHUT Your Mouth (& do This) [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors]
“Knowing when to speak up and knowing when to shut up is business and life mastery” There are too many people out there trying to get ahead and they’re talking too much and definitely not listening enough. Everything you need to find, love, grow and discover are out there on podcasts, Youtube videos, in masterminds, on courses, and with your mentors, if you stop talking, stop interrupting and start listening. Tune in today to discover why listening matters and how to gain more information, extract more education and get more inspiration with your host, Rob Moore. KEY TAKEAWAYS When you’re talking you’re simply not listening. The information, education, and inspiration are being missed because you’re talking and not listening. If you talk, not only are you not getting information, you’re also not extracting information out of people. But when you listen and occasionally ask good questions, people will ask you all sorts of stuff that you wouldn’t get otherwise and it can make a huge difference in your business and personal development. A good example of this is viewing properties and just letting the vendor talk and share and vent and from this, you can understand their motivations and serve them better. If you want to make someone feel important just let them talk, from customers, clients, vendors, and prospects, just let them express themselves and let them talk. To allow people to talk to you and give you information and this could be your customers, leads, prospects, and clients, they must be able to feel comfortable around you must ask good questions, listen and listen with interest using your eyes, ears, and bodies. Billionaire Jim McColl has bought over 85 businesses in his industry and one of the main reasons he was able to do this was because he was simply non-threatening. Sometimes ego takes over and you try to talk and try to overcome the nervous and restless energy by talking, but this can omitted a sense of desperation and it takes a lot of wisdom, self-awareness, and self-confidence to just sit, listen and take it all in. Occasionally people stop listening and start talking when they’re triggered. They say and rant stuff online, on social media and in emails and as a result, it’s out there for good. These people can damage reputations and relationships because they don’t know when to shut up and they let their ego get the better of them. BEST MOMENTS“When people are waiting to talk, they’re not listening and they’re missing out on the details and important information that can be had from listening”“If you’re in therapy or need to have a rant and need to ‘let it out’ that’s okay, but do it privately and get permission to vent.”“You’re going to learn a lot more in a dialogue and not a monologue”“The best seat in the house at a mastermind is the person with the least money, the least experienced and the most to learn”“Wisdom is a balance of knowing when to talk and when to listen, when to express and when to act and ask questions”“Sometimes the ones that say nothing are the dark horses that listen, learn and take it all in”“Knowing when to speak up and knowing when to shut up is business and life mastery” [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter https://robmoore.com/podbooks rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

Caffeine Cast: What Fear Really is [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors]
Do you know what fear really is? Take a look at the evolution of fear and how in the modern world it manifests in our daily lives. Discover how to embrace and overcome fear and how to stop it from getting in the way of you achieving your goals. KEY TAKEAWAYS Some people say that fear is false evidence appearing real. Other people describe it as your imagination of how a future outcome will be. Many people also think fear is an emotional response to a scenario or situation. Many people forget that fear serves us as well as hinders us. All emotions are a reaction to our environment but the problem is, the environment isn't real it is our perception of the environment that is real for us. Therefore, fear is a reaction to a false perception, not an actual real one. People fear the feeling of fear, not that actual event itself. Fear is primitive, it is a programmed response that goes way back to our primitive era to help aid our survival and evolution. However, in modern-day we still feel really strong fear about daily things. Fear is a future, imagined reality felt through emotions usually overly exaggerated yet we still feel them so real in our body. Fear is a fear of the feeling in response to the environment of the things that haven't happened yet. The more fear you get yourself through and overcome gives you a thicker skin, more ability to deal with rejection and an ability to feel more fear. What you fear is not the event, it is your reaction to the event, feeling through it and embracing it in will take you to amazing levels of mastery that you have probably never experienced in your life before.

RANT: When People Say “Easier Said Than Done” (OMFG) [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors]
Do you often find yourself wanting to do things, but losing motivation? Thinking “it’s easier said than done”? Well, tune in today as Rob talks us through ways to combat this feeling and overcome your fears of failure to create nothing but success for yourselves! Don’t miss this inspirational episode. KEY TAKEAWAYS -When people say it is easier said than done not only are they stating the obvious, it also stops them from actually doing something. What they are really saying is that they don’t want to do it, or it is too difficult to do. - If there is something that you want to achieve and you have described it as being “easier said than done” then this has only one solution which is getting something done. - People generally tend to get band mental health when they have three or more major areas of their life that are going badly. - If you find yourself in a situation where you have three or more major things in your life that are going badly, which is contributing to poor mental health, one way to overcome this may be to focus on one area and try to improve. -You’ve got to not think about how easy or hard it is to do it and you have to chunk what it is you’re looking to do into manageable steps. - You cannot be successful without failing your way to success and doing something is better than doing nothing. - If you do nothing, it will go wrong. If you do something, it may go wrong but you can learn from your mistakes and get it right next time. -It then becomes easier done than said, if you chunk it down and just create an action plan of small steps to take. BEST MOMENTS “To know and not to do is not to know” “Stop procrastinating and start testing” “Would you rather look stupid and be successful or look good and be skint?” [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter https://robmoore.com/podbooks rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.
