    Apr 11 2022
    How do you manage a team? This is one of the most frequently asked questions, coming from business owners and people working for a company. This rule applies to both fields: business and career. You’re good at something, you grow, and at some point, more people are involved to help you complete the tasks. What does it mean for you? Your role now changes completely. You don’t have the same responsibilities, assignments, or expectations. I talk about three main aspects when managing a team: individual motivation team motivation, and your motivation, as a manager. You will learn how to accept different working styles, how to adjust your expectations, and how to align your goals with your team’s goals. I talk about the importance of motivation; how can you motivate each member to contribute to the team and accomplish the goal? How do you find the driving force? There are two points every successful manager needs to have in mind: motivation, which refers to the team the outcome, which relates to achievements You will hear how they’re different, and why they are equally important. Managing a team, you need to constantly motivate them to be the best possible versions of themselves. I hope today’s episode gives you some ideas on how to do that. Enjoy!

    When You Focus On The Wrong Things
    Mar 21 2022
    Are you someone who easily gets distracted whenever you go to get something done? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Most entrepreneurs I’ve worked with struggle with losing their focus and wasting time on irrelevant things. In this episode, I talk about my own experience and how I get around this. I talk about GTD methodology and how it helped me organise my tasks better and manage time more efficiently. I organise everything I need to do by its priority, how much time it takes, etc. This methodology has definitely helped me get more things done in a day, without having them on my mind constantly. I also explain what I do if I get intrigued by something. What is it that helps me save a lot of money? One simple step helps me decide whether or not to investigate further. I hope this podcast helps you become more aware of your priorities and focus on the right things. Enjoy!

  • How Much Money Does A Business Need To Make

    How Much Money Does A Business Need To Make
    Mar 14 2022
    Have you ever wondered how much money a business needs to make? Even though there is no general rule that could be applied to all the businesses out there, we can still analyse a few different perspectives. You will learn about the notion of money. What does money mean for your business? Is it how you measure success or is it the result of the value you create? How relevant is the amount you make for your business? I draw a line between two main things that I compare in this episode: the business where you sell your service and the business where you sell your product. The former one is usually related to freelancing and having a rate based on your time. I also touch upon running an online business and how it differs from these other two. This episode is your chance to learn about calculating the cost of running a business. How much money should you put aside for yourself? How much money should you expect to make during the first year? How much does it cost to hire an employee? How to choose the right location for your business? Should you buy or lease the equipment? How long does it take until you turn a profit? These are just some of the questions I tackle here. Finally, I explain the important difference between running a business and doing a business. That’s something most people overlook when they consider starting a business. I hope you pick up a lot of useful information from today’s episode and that it encourages you to step into running a business prepared and confident. What was your experience like? Share your story in the comments, I would love to read it.

  • What To Consider Before Starting A Business

    What To Consider Before Starting A Business
    Mar 7 2022
    Have you ever thought of starting your own business? You love what you do, you want to stop being an employee, so the idea of independently starting your business sounds interesting. Then, this is the perfect podcast for you! I explain the main aspects you should consider before you even start thinking about starting a business. You will learn about the difference between what you do and what it actually means to run a business. Why are these two things different? What is the structure of a successful business? What is the difference between a manager and a worker and which role belongs to you, as a business owner? I talk about how running a business gives you a platform for what you do. How can you create that platform if it doesn’t already exist? How do your chances of starting a business increase when you can’t find the platform to do what you do? Finally, I also talk about money. What is the main factor that generates money, whether you run a business or just work for a company? What should you consider regarding your financial situation before starting a business? And why should you remember that you are not your business? These are just some of the questions I cover in this episode. So, if you are thinking about starting your own business, I encourage you to listen to this podcast. I would love to hear your opinion on it in the comments.

  • Dealing With Anger

    Dealing With Anger
    Feb 28 2022
    In this podcast, I tackle a few questions related to anger. I talk about things like: How do you deal with anger? Why is something triggering your unwanted reaction? Where does the anger come from?, and I offer some possible solutions. If you ever feel like you get easily overcome by anger, this podcast is for you. When anger happens repetitively, we need to find and resolve the first thing that caused it. I explain this method in detail - why it’s important, how it affects us later on, how we fall into the cycle of feeling angry over the same thing, and why ignoring an issue never really solves it. Another important point is reprogramming our triggers. You will learn how to turn your triggers into something positive. I talk about the ways to do so; from neurolinguistic programming to find a way to channel your energy into something positive. Lastly, I focus on showing you how you can allow the feeling without reacting to it. You will learn what disassociating means and how you can apply it. I hope this topic teaches you some useful methods that will help you cope with anger in the future. At the end of the day, anger is just a feeling, and we can all use it to grow and become better through dealing with it.
