Do you see that big thing looks like a big blue dinner plate?

“I can’t find anyone to help me, I can’t find a mentor.” Because I know from my dad’s life that he needed a serious mentor that could help him. Not the bank manager, not the accountant, not the failed business people.

“It takes too long to build a business.” Yes it takes time, this is not a get rich quick scheme, yes, of course it takes time. It’s taken me 12 years to pull in £50 million. Yes it takes time to build a business, if you don’t do that what’s your other back up plan?

“Business is risky.” Get emails saying business is risky. Life’s risky.

“I am too old.” I had a bloke recently wrote to me, said “I’m 54 years old, I’m a bit past all this I’m afraid.” He’s kind of getting ready for the home you know. He’s in his mid 50’s, pull yourself together man.

“I’ve been told it won’t work.” He’s been listening to the phone number data that was pissed when he went on the discussion forum.

“I’m not very good with computers.” I get so many emails saying “Oh, it’s going to be hard, I’m not very good with computers.”

Andrew Reynolds: Let me tell you about the power of excuses and computers. I’ve got some friends in the audience today that I am so happy they have come down to see us. I’ve been working with Disability Initiative in Camberley, my home town and we’ve been helping them out with a bit of funding and they have a gentleman there that I met, a guy called Richard.

Richard wasn’t very good with computers, Richard has some movement problems, Richard has cerebral palsy. Richard can’t use his fingers on a keyboard. That’s how he types me emails, he just hits that with his hand, the cursor goes across the screen, when he gets to the letter he wants he just goes dink like that. That’s how he writes his documents so don’t tell me you are not very good with computers. If he can do it so can you guys.

It’s an amazing charity; we are hoping to do some work with them next year to open a couple more centres, amazing charity.
