Original Minds™ with Tobias Dahlberg Embody your originality

One of the most ignored concepts in business in my experience is positioning. I mean, people know of positioning, but they don't practice it well. Why? For one, it's scary, because it goes against common sense in many ways.
In this episode, I talk about a principle from my upcoming book/booklet (let's see what it becomes).
I call this principle Carve Out Your Space And Own It.
It's about the importance of discovering where you should space, and how to show up and lead within that space.
Please don't ignore it ;)

I'd be the first to admit my headline sounds a bit cocky and that I might have more to learn from you than you have to learn from me.
 
However, I decided to challenge myself with a question. If my life depended on it, if someone held a gun to my head and told me I must make your business thrive, what would I do?
 
I came up with six non-negotiable principles I have come to believe are decisive for your growth and success.
 
If you have been reading or watching my content before, you might know that I am passionate about helping entrepreneurs turn their potential into greatness. I believe strongly in entrepreneurship as a force for positive change in the world. I wish more people would turn their talents into thriving businesses and move the world forward.
 
So why do so few create something extraordinary? Why do so few even break even?
Over my 20+ year career, I have had the privilege to work with thousands of people, and I have come to learn what the biggest obstacles to growth and prosperity are.
 
So I asked myself, what are the most important ways in which I could help ANY entrepreneur and business succeed? Could I?
 
In a nutshell, here is what I would do to ensure that you would achieve great success. To be clear, we would not work on all things at once, but these principles would work as the checklist to ensure you reach your dreams.

What does it take to achieve extraordinary levels of success as an entrepreneur and in life?
Many things, for sure...but as I've been exploring this topic for the last 20+ years of my life, and after reading several hundreds books on the subject, I have learned that there are three areas that extraordinary achievers keep expanding. In this episode, I share what they are, and what you can do to to achieve extraordinary levels of success.

In this episode, which I shot in a garden in the south of Portugal (also available on my YouTube channel)  I share my creative process. It's a process I developed through trial and error over the years, and I have come to learn that this process never fails me. I mean, coming up with great ideas is not easy. But I find that by having a framework for feeding your mind, then cross-pollinating insights and ideas will lead to an infinite amount of ideas, some of which are crap, and some of which are original and useful.
 
Try it for yourself and let me know what you think!

If you're in the professional services space (agency owner, consultant, coach, etc.) one of the SMARTEST things you can do is to PRODUCTIZE your service(s). 

When you think of your service as a product, you will start to STANDARDIZE it, so that you can deliver a specific outcome repeatedly over time. 

The main benefits are: -You can get higher margins -Your business becomes more predictable -You can grow and scale your business and...you can remove yourself as the BOTTLENECK of your business.

Have you ever listened to someone more experienced than you as they told you something important....yet you chose to ignore it?
I know I have.
During the first seven years running my brand consultancy, I ignored not only what I learned from industry leaders and gurus, I ignored my own advice...the advice I gave my clients as a strategist...
I feel like such an idiot...but I more or less wasted seven years building my agency the wrong way...
I am talking about the same way practically everyone builds and operates their agency, consulting firm...or any professional service firm.
Hope you enjoy the episode.
