Got a lift to London from our favourite cab driver sal from www.linkairports.co.uk . Started the evening in a pub on Broadwick Street, Soho that sold organic beer. Tasted great. Cost £7.58 for 3 pints…. Say no more. Then moved on to Hix restaurant in brewer street, very cool. Drink downstairs very retro. Great food upstairs. 10/10. Then onto Chelsea to watch champions league game. Looking to carry on afterward somewhere else……

Just like to say what a fantastic night I had in the presence (albeit it 20 rows back) Dr Stephen Covey, world renowned author of, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and the 8th Habit. Having recently read the E-Myth by Michael Gerber and The Sticking Point by Jay Abraham I would highly recommend this to any business owner regardless if your new to business or been around the block a few times. In-fact the longer you have been in business the more mistakes you probably have made and are making day to day. When I read the E-Myth it was as if Mr Gerber had placed a camera on our walls and based the whole book on us!!! The changes we have put in place in our business have made an immense difference to both the quality of our product, the delivery of our service, profitability and more importantly happier staff and clients.
Dr Coveys opening statement rang very true to me, I have implemented this theory through our company and I know it works. “If you want to make minor improvements, work on behavior and attitude.If you want to make huge improvements work on your business map.”
The map he refers to is the map that us business owners created More >Oct 14th

Inability to borrow. 5. Missed out on the ‘sell and buy back at a lower price” stratergy. 6. Not talking to your accountant. They can help build your business and protect assests by saving on tax. 7. Not taking advantage of a bargain. In recession you can buy properties etc…
Avoid the 7 mistakes. It costs your business. It costs you individually. It costs households. It costs the ecomony. Speaker Feisal NahabooPosted via email from areatrade’s posterous
