How to master self esteem with Ben Ivey, Founder & CEO of Entrepreneur Lifestyle

How To Start Up by FF&M

Today I am talking to Ben Ivey who, realising that successful people are not necessarily happy people, decided to work directly with entrepreneurs who might be feeling overwhelmed, in order to help them better manage their work-life balance, as well as succeed further in business.
Ben has spoken at over 200 events internationally on how to embrace living entrepreneurially via his company, The Entrepreneur Lifestyle for which he is founder and CEO.

Ben's advice:

• While it’s important to believe in what you are doing, remember to balance this with the need to market yourself and keep the cash coming in
• Pay attention to people you admire while understanding everyone will have failings. “Understand the best of the best from different people”
• Set yourself small challenges and surprise yourself with what you will be able to achieve
• Be disciplined: carry through on your ambitions
• Focus on what you are good at, and delegate to others tasks you are less capable of
• Trust others and give them responsibility
• Establish boundaries in your personal life; give yourself time to relax and keep to a routine
• Don’t be too self-critical; it can be destructive and achieves nothing. Be kind to yourself!
