Top Ten quotes on Pushing Boundaries

Pushing Boundaries. This list of quotes comes straight from my favourite business person Richard Branson’s blog :)

Action is so much more powerful than words and even though he has released a few books, no one inspires more by just being himself, living his life then Mr. Branson does. He is truly great!

About pushing boundaries, I do my best at pushing to go further. As do you, I hope? It’s part of the game. Maybe not pushing boundaries out of a huge global perspective, but pushing out of our own comfort zone to accomplish more. It’s a hard task, but try pushing yourself a bit harder and you will be rewarded with peace of mind and potential success in your endeavors?

Multinationall business through Skype

I can do business in Sweden while taking a walk in Florida. Thank you Niklas Zennström, Skype is awesome!!

I looked through some photos my friend took the other day as we were out on a walk. The call was from one of my investors back home and we discussed some upcoming projects. Felt great to make sure we were still making progress in Sweden without having to be there. I tend to take so much for granted, but sometimes, like now, it just hits me how grateful I am for innovations. I have always wanted a “multinational” life and that would have been so hard to accomplish without stuff like Skype, internet banking, e-mails etc. Now, thanks to technology, I can run my Swedish business while in the USA and my American business while in Sweden without any interruptions. It’s great! Multinationall business is great!

An old boat, should I buy one?

I kind of want a boat. Don’t ask me why, but for some reason

I feel like buying an old something

The only problem is that I get really frustrated when working with old stuff, or doing most kinds of manual labour if I’m honest, so I know I’ll be miserable.

I have done this several times before and I always got fed up. Sometimes I finished my boat, car or motorcycle project, sometimes I didn’t. Good thing about all these projects is that they ended up profitable :) Buying something comparatively cheap is everything! Read more about it in this chapter: Dealing It

Top Tip: Delivery and Installation

Delivery

Order the material and machines you need with delivery and installation for lower costs.

I’m almost done with restoring the final two houses that we bought here in central Florida and as I have been dealing with American contractors and companies I have learned that delivery is often cheaper than going to the store and buying that same product. The hard part is the planning.

If you are ordering stuff and have them delivered you need to be a few steps ahead. You need to know what products you want and you need to know how much in advance you have to order them. When done right, you end up having it all at your doorstep just when you need.

Soon to be developed

Not developed by me, sadly, but still to my advantage. The whole area is under construction and I love walking around looking at their progress. The road is Old Dixie HWY and the area is called Sun West. The development plan is to build some 2 500 houses, restaurants and a golf course, meaning it’s a major project!

Location, location, location

Location

Everybody keeps talking about how important it is with location and you know what? They are right.

But! It’s not everything. The best business is found where location meets good value. They say that we should buy places on a good location because it’s safer. It’s safer because you can only fit so many houses along the beach or downtown. And they are right. In that sense it is safer. But there is another side to it.

The real estate market and avarage prices

I thought about the real estate market yesterday as an investor friend wanted to show me his boat.

real estate market

We drove out to a place he has on the gulf here in central Florida. As we got there he told about the house with it’s dock and deep sea access. According to him, he overpaid for it back in 2007 and it wasn’t until now he started seeing a chance of making some money on it.

City Planning, good or bad?

This is a very tough question, so I would probably be better off staying away from the subject. But, city planning..

City planning, or Zoning is when the local politicians decide how they want an area to look. They decide if they want residential or commercial buildings. How high the houses should be and sometimes even what colors your place should be painted in.

Land use. See past others issues:

Land use is a big thing. Be creative and make millions!

This guy here in central Florida made a really inspiring deal. A big piece of land was up for sale on a really good location. It was about an acre big on a well thought after address. All the land around it had been developed with upper class neighbourhoods and the margins for building something new here would be great!

But there was a problem. The land had been used as a dump. Back in the day they called it landfill. What it means is that they just dug out a big hole and filled it with garbage. As a result, there were major settlement issues and heavy regulations against it so now people will probably ever live on this piece of land.
