Becoming a more entreprenurial thinker benefits ALL aspects of your life; it makes you feel more empowered, secure, in control of your life, more calm and peaceful.
You are not second guessing yourself all the time or wondering what you are doing wrong. You increase your value, no matter what you do for a living.
I know it can be taught, because while born entrepreneurially minded, I didn't have a clue how to become a successful entrepreneur. I learned from great mentors and by learning painful lessons along the way.First, which best describes you?A) Job seeker or Employee watching AI reshape your role and wanting to stay valuable
B) Recently redundant and exploring a business idea
C) Solopreneur worn out and stuck at a revenue ceiling
D) Business owner not making what you hoped (and working too hard)
E) Founder or aspiring founder wanting a clearer path to traction
I’m thinking of creating a short, practical course to help you think more like an entrepreneur — whether you want a better job, a more secure job, a successful lifestyle business or a bigger, more succesful business that runs without you and actually pays you well personally.The first 30 people to commit to the course in return for feedback (and hopefully a testimonial), will enjoy it completely free of charge.The course will feature short daily videos and focus on:* Create visible impact fast & getting noticed* Idea → test → proof, without burning out (stop guessing, get sure)* Using AI leverage without losing your creativity* Money models and cash clarity (effort into income & assets)* Field-tested moves from my book “A Better Entrepreneur” that you can apply the same day.Two quick questions:Which category are you? Jobseeker, employee, solopreneur or business owner?What ONE outcome would make this a no‑brainer for you?Why listen to me?* 35+ years building and advising traditional and digital businesses; founder of The Money Gym, Clicks & Leads and the 'secret weopon' behind many high profile authors and experts, helping them to build personal brand, scale leads and revenue.* Creator of The Money Gym hosting sold‑out workshops and mentoring entrepreneurs from first sale to consistent profit.* Speaker and trainer for many professional networks and communities* Longtime podcaster (Own It! Business Success Factory & A Better Entrepreneur), interviewing and coaching founders across many varied sectors.* Practitioner first: I bought (no money down), launched, marketed, and filled a boutique hotel from scratch; built repeatable “Be Everywhere Online” systems; helped quiet experts turn expertise into demand.* Author of 'The Money Gym', 'Attract 3.0' and 'A Better Entrepreneur', distilling hard‑won lessons into practical playbooks for mindset, marketing, and money.If this resonates, join my mailing list on Substack, then hit reply to the welcome email and tell me a bit about yourself.
