The Roadmap For Success - with Andy Thomas

Ellie is on a mission this week with property superstar and serial entrepreneur, Andy Thomas, who went from being a mortgage broker, the man at the helm of an eight-figure property portfolio. Andy talks to Ellie about how he turned the tide in his life and created a multi-million dollar business from nothing through little more than determination and the will to succeed, the value of mentorship and education in the property world, and the importance of living in the moment. KEY TAKEAWAYS Entrepreneurs can see the opportunities everywhere, no matter what the situation. They are the ones hungry for turning the ordinary into the extraordinary. Deals might not always be right for us at the time, but they may serve someone else well. Deal packaging is the art of selling a deal on to an investor and receiving a fee in return. By equipping ourselves with a toolbox of strategies, and aligning with a mentor or someone who can guide us through challenges, our potential to succeed is increased exponentially. The only thing that's guaranteed in life is the present moment we have. We should never sacrifice our happiness in the present for some far off point in the future. BEST MOMENTS 'I knew I was good with people. I knew I was good at that face-to-face sales life' 'You went from nothing to having 134 properties in your portfolio!' 'You can't be open to the opportunities unless you can step back and be more strategic' 'I believe this is the roadmap to success' 'Within the confines of my own life, I am exactly where I want to be' VALUABLE RESOURCES On A Mission - https://omny.fm/shows/on-a-mission Andy Thomas LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-thomas-1a14bb181/?originalSubdomain=uk ABOUT THE HOST The On A Mission Podcast brings you Ellie Mckay's no holds barred chats with some of the UK's top business leaders, entrepreneurs, celebrities, athletes, top thought leaders, influencers and mindset experts.
