You need to be prepared to risk something because if you risk nothing, then you actually risk everything. Herman is joined by an international speaker, two-times best selling author and a leading property investor, Samuel Leeds. They discuss the entrepreneurial mindset, the science of making a deal and how to achieve financial freedom. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Once you understand the science of making a deal you'll secure your first investment and that's always the hardest one. But once you've done it once you can do it again and again, that's something that isn't taught in schools and every child needs a mantle. 

• If you want to be a leader and you want to be an entrepreneur, you need a lot of courage and willingness to do whatever it takes. To succeed you need to be prepared to risk something because if you risk nothing, then actually you risk everything.

• There are two types of income, active income and passive income. Financial freedom is where you've got a recurring income from a systemised setup and that income covers your living expenses.

• Not everyone was meant to be an entrepreneur, but if you've got an entrepreneurial mindset then that skill set needs to be encouraged as opposed to oppressed.

• People can be intelligent in multiple ways, emotionally intelligent, spatially intelligent, interpersonal intelligence and spiritually intelligent and when children are deemed as ‘not smart' often it's because they have an entrepreneurial mindset or proclivity and this desire to do things differently. 

BEST MOMENTS 

“My business right now is turning over between £400,000 and £1 million every single month and I've been fortunate that I've been able to impact hundreds of thousands of people.

“It's very easy to just follow the traditional route of going to school, getting good grades, getting a job, buying a house and paying down the mortgage. That's the safe way to play it.”

“I'm constantly learning and constantly growing because I think there's no better investment than in yourself.”

You can't have business development without personal development first.”

“If I want to grow a big business, I've got to become big first.”

ABOUT THE GUEST

Samuel Leeds is an international speaker, two-times best selling author and a leading property investor. 

 Samuel had a spiritual experience in 2007 which resulted in him leaving his job to pursue ministry and become a property investor. Within a few short years Samuel was able to retire through his property business, but instead of retiring, he established Training Kings, a support network for Christian entrepreneurs. This rapidly became a nationwide organisation with branches all over the UK. 

Samuel wrote his first book 'Do the Possible, Watch God Do the Impossible' which became an Amazon Best Selling Book within a matter of weeks. He went on to write and publish 'Buy Low Rent High' which explains exactly how he built a property portfolio from nothing, and how anybody can achieve financial freedom within 12 months or less.  

Today, Samuel is the CEO of six successful companies as well as owning over £1M of property throughout the UK. He has inspired tens of thousands of people across the world to invest smarter and to live better.
