Welcome to the brand new ‘Parentrepreneur Podcast’   On this first show host Michael J Christian is joined by Dr Adnan Ali, a highly accomplished medical leader. The two discuss the challenges, rewards and lessons they have experienced by juggling parenthood and entrepreneurship and share their experiences with you to make your life easier.   KEY TAKEAWAYS After working 12 hour shifts as a GP and realising his life was not what he wanted, Dr Adnan decided on a change of career. He talks about the driving forces that led him on his current path and what values drive him.  How do we achieve our goals? The simple answer is hard work. The guys talk about the ‘10,000’ hour rule and how most people that achieve their goals have put that time in.  Does being an entrepreneur make it easier to be a parent? The guys talk about the positive influence being an entrepreneur can be for children, how the children pick up on and are exposed to behaviours that they may not otherwise have been if their parents were not entrepreneurs.  The one thing that most new entrepreneurs overlook is…good health. How much does good health affect other parts of your life? Your relationship with your family and friends, with yourself and your drive and success in your professional life.    BEST MOMENTS   “If you’ve got a goal, start now.” “Ask yourself, what is the difference you are making to the world?” “The more people you can help, the more successful you will be.” “Set your own values and live by them everyday.” SPONSOR   Appreciate this is late in the day!
