Tim McCranor Planning makes the dream possible I've been spinning the plates since I was 15. Am I lucky? No I have worked hard for what I have. Do I love my life?

I’M PROUD TO SAY THAT I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF SUCCESS IN BOTH MY BUSINESS AND PERSONAL LIFE…
… but there has been a long list of stuff ups to go with it. I’ve learnt what to do, what to avoid, plus the work it takes to set business foundations and pathways to goals – sometimes completely left of field - and it is you that is benefiting from that as a new business or an established business ready to

level up. Working with and helping people is my passion – from a grass roots level of coaching a local junior soccer team, to leading the Westminster School Foundation as President, and excelling as an entrepreneur and business owner. A drive to push people to be, do, and get the best is at my core, and that is why I have taken all I have learnt about leadership, business, and encouraging the entrepreneurial mindset, and put it together in Business Mentor Packages that are going to see you get it done with confidence and efficiency. I knew at a young age that I wanted to be successful and that I wanted as many people around me to be successful too. Having worked for Corporations like Jaguar and Mitsubishi since I was 18 I had been exposed to the world. Having a regular job was great but my success was limited to the Corporate ladder and the hours were long. I decided that following my passion in Property not only gave me the results I was looking for it also gave me balance away from my Corporate job. While my work colleagues went home after a long day I went to my latest renovation job and got hands on. This was hard but rewarding, so much so that I decided this was something I wanted to do full-time. Leaving my well paid Corporate job together with my wife we started our Property Management Company. We worked 24/7 to build a successful high end Property Management Company, combining this with our Property Developments. The monetary rewards were fantastic but it was hard work and after 10 years we took another Opportunity to sell this business and semi retire, I was 54. I took a long holiday with my family travelling the globe living the dream of freedom. Returning to Australia I decided I wanted to help others gain that same level of freedom before it was to late for them. The ideology that we need to work until we are 70 does not sit comfortably with me so I wanted to show others that this is not the case. I have achieved this through good times and bad, I have survived cancer in my 30's, lost a child in my 40's but I have not used these as excuses to give up instead I have used them to create a life of freedom and choices for my family. Absolutely

Ok so my pot probably wouldn’t have made it to the store, but failure is not all bad.

Imagine if Edison packed it in at his first attempt of the light bulb, or if Messi gave up after being cut as an 11yo from his football team for being to small!

Failure enables one to look deeper into what they are trying to achieve, it breeds humility, resilience and contributes to becoming fearless in your pursuits.

Don’t be afraid to let failure be a chapter in your book as it will bring you one step closer to success.

Now more than ever your budget matters.

There is a reason I talk budgets when you first sit down with me, because they are critical to the sustainability of your business.

You may have a fantastic product, but as today’s market is showing, threats always exist to your expenses that you need to be able to overcome.

Need to chat more about your budget, then reach out for a session to get you on track.

You do know you can customise?

Being part of the crowd is easy, being yourself is the tricky part.

Drop the fear offs, and watch yourself write your own story of success.

It’s not too late to dream another dream.

It is not unusual to occasionally wish you were doing something different with your career, we’ve all been there.

It’s also not surprising when the system is asking you to decide what you want to do at 18, when school is all you have known along with possibly a part time job.

If you’re finding yourself in this exact spot, it’s time to get the pen and paper out and start goal mapping.

Firstly ensure you understand what it is you’re not enjoying about your current role, perhaps you like the industry but not the part you’re playing or perhaps you work shift work and have had enough. Write it all down.

Then think about what your ultimate dream job would be, is it realistic and what steps do you need to get there.

Remember it’s up to you to make the change, and change can happen whenever you want.

Do you have a budget?

This is the first question I ask clients that are working with me, regardless of what they earn. The fact is, it doesn’t matter what you earn, if you have no idea of your spending patterns, you could eventually drink the well dry.

Budgeting is just one of the life skills I can set you up with, and the earlier you learn this skill, the more inclined you will be to save.
