Become a student of life

In 2006 I became a student at the University of Central England in Birmingham, UK.  I studied Computer Science and became a professional in my craft. 

However, learning shouldn't just be something we do when we're in an educational setting, in fact I am here to tell you that I've learned more after University than I ever did whilst in education.  

The one major takeaway that I'd like to share with you today is to always be a student of life. 

Life is a teacher and it can sometimes be one of the most brutal teachers we have. 

In 2018, I weighed a colossal 220lbs and growing, I knew I was eating the wrong things and I also knew I wasn't active.  

I had basic knowledge of how to get out of it, move more and quit eating like shit. 

To get out of any kind of situation whether its business, in your relationship or in life then you're going to need to become a student of that particular subject. 

You're going to need to learn about the subject and then adapt to overcome. 

Experiment with different methods to find a solution to the problem, until the problem is solved.  

Pick any area of your life that you are facing adversity with, let's say it's financial.  How are you going to solve the financial problem of your life. 

Perhaps you're in debt. 

Make a list of your debts, who is your highest creditor? What's the interest rate on that balance?  How much are you currently paying them?  Is it more than the monthly minimum payment? 

Consider how much you would need to repay the debt, spend sometime working out a monthly repayment schedule and get to work. 

If you don't confront the things that you don't know then you will forever be stuck in same position. 

Become a student, learn, adapt and move forward constantly.

Kindest Regards

Robert Haylor on Email Marketing

I wanted to give you all a tip this week, something that you can use in your own business, based on my own experience.  This year, I've started using my email marketing application more to reach out to both prospects and also keep in touch with my client base on a regular basis.  One of the most important and often overlooked tasks within the marketing mix is the constant growing of your email marketing list.   Growing your email marketing list isn't just something you should do as and when, but something that you make part of your everyday cycle.  So if you've recently been to a meeting with a prospective client, get their email address, if you've signed up a new client, ensure their email address is in your email marketing application or better yet had a phone call from a warm lead, get their email address.  If you don't have an email address capture form on your website for new enquiries or for people that find your content useful, then ensure you get that ad...
