KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Social media right now rewards terrible content, not quality conversations.
- Rob tries his best to be honest and speak the truth, this is one of the reasons he thinks people resonate with his brand and podcasts.
- Taxes are too high for entrepreneurs but Rob admits he would of course believes this, being an entrepreneur.
- Arrogance is thinking you are better than you are and looking down on others, Rob doesn’t do either of these, he is not arrogant.
- People will not always have the right ideas and goals for you, they will often be coming from a place of their own bias. You have to live your own life and make your own decisions; you can’t always take on advice from those around you even if they love you.
- Haters can make you accountable, they aren’t inherently negative.
- Rest and recovery are part of progress in health and fitness, your personal life and also in business but humans have an unusually high work capacity.
- Utilise your time, there is a cost to not outsourcing things.
- Lockdown was the scariest time for Rob in his 17 years in business, but he learnt some of his biggest lessons including that the government is the biggest challenge to almost any business.
