Welcome to The Disruptors Podcast! In this episode, Rob answers questions from M- a Disruptive Entrepreneur Community member, about how to stop pedestalising your competition and in turn, making yourself feel insignificant or of no value compared to those people. It is a common issue entrepreneurs face, especially when they look to grow.

Be grateful for your competition.

Welcome to another episode of The Disruptors Podcast! Today, Rob covers ten ways to get yourself out there, whether it means marketing yourself, giving your product a voice or creating a content. Whatever it is that you’re thinking about doing, stop overthinking, ask yourself “what’s the worst that could happen?”, start with what you know best, and then do it!   Key Takeaways:   Stop overthinking it and start testing it. Don’t waste precious time worrying and overthinking about whether you’ll mess up, be judged or that you won’t be good enough and instead, just got for it. If it makes you feel more comfortable, take some notes, be prepared, talk about something you know well, just do it.   Remember that everything is a test. Nothing ever has to be the perfect finished final product. If something turns out bad, you can always go back and fix it. Stop making it seem so big and permanent in your mind, understand how small your actions are in the grand scheme of things and take that pressure off yourself.

Episode Description: Welcome to another episode of The Disruptors Podcast! Today, Rob explains three fairly simple concepts that can make a big difference in ensuring your kids grow up to be self-sufficient and money-savvy. And while the tips are simple, the things they require can be tough, like not simply giving them an inheritance, or having to let someone else inspire their entrepreneurial spirit. But in the long run, it’s more than worth it!  Key Takeaways: Don’t just give your kids money in the form of an inheritance or other lump sums, as this is not going to be useful in helping them learn how to master money responsibly, and could even lead them to a poor financial situation. Instead, use the money as an opportunity to get them involved in business and enterprise early.
