Leveraged LifestyleThe Answer is 'YES'- With Neville Wright
“You only got 86,400 in a day, 1440 minutes in a day, use them!” – Neville Wright
Having owned the largest independent baby shop in the UK for a very long time, our guest Neville drops so much nuggets of wisdom in this episode. Neville has helped other businesses thrive, aside from sharing his expertise through his book, The Answer is Yes – Now What is the Question?, so the discussion went very smoothly. Some topics tackled were property vs retail, managing a nursery business, looking for your new business partner (lucky for him, his wife Marilyn is all he needs by his side in business, in sickness, and in health), incorporating a new system in your business, and many more.
Start tuning in today in the Leveraged Lifestyle Podcast.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Teach the young ones how to value education instead of dictating a career path they should follow. Motivate them to believe in themselves and their passions, so they can pursue them on their own. Seeing them do what they want for their lives should be enough for you to remove all your worries and doubts.
- Children adapt—in whatever environment you put them. Neville and his wife did nothing to make them ‘comfortable’ because they know they will be. In this manner also, you also incite independence, responsibility, and flexibility. Trust the process and trust them.
- It was truly a blessing for finding not just a life partner but a business partner who complements the skills and talents that you already have. You can’t do everything… We’ve proven many times before that it’s better to concentrate on your forte than waste your resources on the mediocre stuff. If you have to hire someone to do the other tasks, then go for it.
- In business, we need systems for the flow and efficiency of every operation. It also helps everyone to be accountable from the top-to-bottom levels of the work hierarchy. But systems shouldn’t be as rigid if we’re dealing with different people. It should be flexible depending on the situation, the culture, and the people involved.
BEST MOMENTS
- “When you got these skills and great things but you can’t do some things—well, no one can do everything—you have to let other people do what you can’t do.”
- “We got there… I have this question every single day and I would tell people how easy it was to build that incredible business.”
- “It’s not all roses—that’s business.”
- “Property is certainly not the same as retail.”

ABOUT THE HOST
Catherine Turner
Catherine is an iTunes No.1 podcast host of Leveraged Lifestyle, entrepreneur, businesswoman, an Inspirational Speaker, world record holder, Co-Director of Ideal-Collective.com and a mum of 2!
Catherine quit being an employee in 2013, after working more than 50+ hours on average a week, over 3 jobs. Jobs, hours and a lifestyle which led to a diagnosis of clinical depression before the age of 25.
In 2011/12 Catherine discovered the power of investing in property, and tried many different property investment strategies over the years, finally settling on Serviced Accommodation in 2015, which has now grown from one unit in her home town of Chelmsford, Essex to over 50 across the UK, helping investors, landlords and developers create a better return on their money or property.
This year, Catherine and her husband Stephen, also her business partner, joined forces with the Directors of LoLite Homes to create the Ideal-Collective.com, which is all about leveraging the services and knowledge of all four Directors when it comes to Serviced Accommodation, Social Media, Finance & Virtual Assistants.
Catherine started Leveraged Lifestyle podcast to give business owners and those not leading their ideal lifestyle, to learn the mindset and skillset it takes to create a lifestyle of Freedom, by leveraging time, money & knowledge and using outsourcing and systemisation.
