In this day and age, we have more access to “successful” people than ever before.
We can follow their social media accounts, watch their videos, read their books, and it goes on. But you often find that many of them make the notion of “success” sound so out of reach and complex.
Maybe there are ulterior motives for this…creating complexity for profit perhaps?
Something that I have thought about more and more over recent months, is how the most effective entrepreneurs and those that I consider to be successful, actually “simplify messaging for results”.
I recently read Brick by Brick (Success in Business and Life) by Paul Bassi CBE.
Paul is a leading businessman and philanthropist with interests in a £300 million plus property and business portfolio.
Brick by Brick sets out a clear and concise roadmap to Success in Business and Life" based on experience.
I was lucky enough to spend an hour interviewing Paul for my podcast and I attempted to ask questions that listeners would find most useful.
I had an insightful chat with Paul. We touched on a lot of topics such as using books to mentor you, achieving work life balance, the definition of success, what busy isn't, picking the right team, and acquiring the Asha’s restaurant Birmingham franchise to turn it into an upscale, thriving business.
His achievements have earned him the title of CBE which he received in 2010. Paul Bassi is also a philanthropist and donated all the profits from the sales of his book, Brick by Brick, to the Bond Wolfe Charitable Trust.
