Ready to Level Up Your Entrepreneurial Game?
As an entrepreneur, reading books is an absolute game-changer.
But remember, it's not just about absorbing knowledge; it's about taking action and implementing what you've learned.
In my latest video, I'm sharing three books that I recently finished, with each holding immense value for any entrepreneur.
First up is 'Discipline is Destiny' by Ryan Holiday, one of my all-time favourite authors. This book dives deep into the power of discipline and how it shapes our path to success.
Next, we have 'TED Talks: The Official TED Guide to Public Speaking'. This book offers practical tips on public speaking from the man who's seen it all himself - Chris Anderson, the CEO of TED.
Lastly, we dive into 'The Diet Myth' by Tim Spector, which challenges common misconceptions about dieting. He provides evidence-based insights into making healthier choices and debunks popular myths surrounding our food.
So, if you're eager to discover whether these books should find a spot on your bookshelf, tune in to this video!

Tej graduated from King's’ College London with a BSc Biochemistry in 2014, he then pursued a career in Medical Education and Marketing. Soon after his second job… he was fired! A moment of relief and freedom was what he felt, not sure what his mother felt when he told her he was jobless at 23…
He then went in search of a more ethical path, a business he could set up where the reward was equal to the work put in. “If they are making pounds, why am I making pennies?” - was his thought process, not happy with slow progression and bureaucracy (& having to wear smart shoes everyday). This lead him to opening a Recruitment business (not sure where the ethics went) which doubled in profit every year, for 4 years. He hated it. Golden handcuffs they call it.
Fortunately, he used the cash he’d built up from that business, to educate himself in Property Investing. Soon, he’d stopped the business and transitioned into Property Investment full time. He then had a slow start -
Purchasing 15 properties in his first 9 months, using over £650,000 of Investor Finance, he built a £1,200,000 property portfolio and created £30,000 of profit from flips. This gave him ‘financial freedom’, but it was the most stressful period of his life. Growing quickly is very painful. He recently made £95,000 from two flips.
Let’s not forget that his Podcast grew to be the most-reviewed UK Property Podcast, peaking at 4,000 unique downloads per episode.
His Podcast (Tej Talks) now sits at 800,000 downloads in over 120 countries and has 500 reviews, rated 5/5.
