The last thing you want while building your tower of success is to see it crumble down.
It’s important that you create and solidify a master plan. It serves as the map while you are on your journey towards your goal. A master plan doesn’t have to be sternly followed; it is flexible depending on the current milestones you’re receiving and the better opportunities that come. Neil also shares today his own master plan for his tutor business. The most important thing is that you contribute value to others along the way. Discover where you should start and why should do it in this episode of The Tutor Podcast.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Have a plan. That’s always the first step. Once you have a plan, everything will fall right into their proper place. It gets ingrained in your mind that you got something you need to do. Once you wake up, the immediate thought is about how to execute the planning bit by bit.


It’s easier to look for opportunities when you know where you’re going. You set an eye on things that will help you achieve your goal smoothly.


Contributing value to others is what you should priorities if you’re looking into starting a business, not wealth. The money will follow when you do great at serving others.


According to Neil, honesty is the key value that business should uphold, and behind this, fun, understanding support, and flexibility follow.


It’s important to write down what you stand for so you can go back to them if you’re losing focus and feeling lost.


Neil’s 3 Biggest Annual Priorities:
Deliver unique message to students and listeners.


Increase visibility.


Understand the marketplace.



If there are tasks that need to be delegated to others so you can concentrate on more important tasks for the business, do it. It’s most likely that other people are far better at doing some jobs than you. Know where you need to focus.

BEST MOMENTS

“The reason that you must have a plan is it constrains your thinking – it forces you to keep on track.”


“Amateurs dabble and stumble one from one week to next. They’re very reactive to external conditions. They tend to jump from things to other things.”


“Focus on the most important things. Build a business in which you can create more value.”


“My business’ mission is to change how the world plays the guitar and to create happier and more fulfilled human beings.”


“With a little bit of repetition and the right inputs, you don’t need the mythical quality of talent.”
