Where do you have your most productive thoughts?

I find my mind wanders when I am cutting the lawn or cleaning the car.

The day before lockdown I was cleaning my car and preparing to put it in the garage for an indeterminate length of time when a thought occurred to me that it wasn’t worth paying the road tax which was due in a few days, I could save a few hundred pounds by completing a SORN. This thought led me recall that I have been in this situation before, of massive uncertainty, uncharted territory but potential massive opportunity.

That time was December 2008. I worked for the Woolworths Group, we , ( 30,000 of us ) were made redundant, with no paid notice period , no redundancy pay and our final salary scheme went to the Pensions Protection Fund.

I decided that from that point on I was going to take responsibility for my own life , never again would faceless individuals control my life. It wasn’t easy but since that time I have built a number of businesses giving me multiple streams of income.

That thought led to realise I am in a really good position to help businesses at this current time and going forward.

I have produced a 36-page booklet called Operation Protect. It's full of things you , as a business owner, should be doing right now to prepare for Freedom Day plus it has a 90 day checklist to help you through it.

Lots of people are already using it and taking action working through the check list.

If you would like a copy message me on LinkedIn with your email address or address were you would prefer a printed copy.

Stay safe and don't forget to keep your distance physically but stay in touch with your customers
