For commercial & speaking enquiries please message: sponsorship@luketobin.com I write a newsletter called The Success Method - www.luketobin.com The Success Method, offers useful guidance and tools to help you succeed in both business and life. I’m actively buying 6 & 7 figure businesses as part of my portfolio. I offer growth & exit advice to entrepreneurs. DM to discuss growing or exiting your company. My story; I started my most recent business after freelancing from my spare bedroom in 2017, with just over £100 invested. In 2022, I sold that business in an 8-figure deal ($). It’s one of the fastest marketing agency growth stories in UK history. It’s been a crazy ride. Highs, lows, and everything in between. I learnt entrepreneurship the hard way, after founding seven businesses over the last 20 years. Three that failed and four that succeeded in an exit. It’s now my mission to share the good, bad, and ugly of entrepreneurship. The real truth. Not some clickbait glamorisation. I’m currently CEO Tobin Capital, a personal investment portfolio helping scale up the next generation of exciting companies. Interested in exiting your company? I’m actively buying businesses, so please get in touch. Interested in collaboration/investment/advisory/speaking/podcasts? Drop me a message on here...

The top 1% don’t avoid pressure. They train for it like athletes. Emotional intelligence isn’t a soft skill, It’s a performance weapon. But most people? They react.  Spiral.  Burn out quietly while still “doing the work.” The Top 1%? They know chaos is coming. So they build the inner capacity to stay calm, clear, and in control. They don't just work harder, they think smarter. Here’s 20 Emotionally Intelligence Mindset Shifts. (do this to reframe in real time): 1. “This is overwhelming”   Instead → “This is stretching me.” 2. “I can’t do this” Instead → “I haven’t mastered this yet.” 3. “I failed”  Instead → “This is feedback for mastery.” 4. “I must do it all”  Instead → “I must protect my energy to lead well.” 5. “EQ is soft”  Instead → “EQ is a superpower in high-stakes environments.” 6. “This setback defines me”  Instead → “This moment refines me.” 7. “Everything is urgent”  Instead → “Not everything deserves my urgency.” 8. “This pain is pointless”  Instead → “This discomfort is data.” 9. “I should be further by now”  Instead → “I’m building sustainable momentum.” 10. “I’m stuck”  Instead → “Something is about to shift.” 11. “This challenge is unfair”  Instead → “This challenge is preparation.” 12. “I can’t slow down”  Instead → “Recovery is a performance strategy.” 13. “Why is this happening to me?”  Instead → “What is this revealing in me?” 14. “They’re ahead of me”  Instead → “Their path is not my pace.” 15. “I need to grind harder”  → “I need to align deeper.” 16. “Quitting means weakness”  Instead → “Recalibrating means wisdom.” 17. “I’m drained”  Instead → “I need to reconnect with purpose.” 18. “It has to be perfect”  Instead → “It just has to be honest.” 19. “I must prove my worth”  Instead → “I operate from knowing my worth.” 20. “I’m under pressure”  Instead → “I’m being forged under pressure.” You don’t rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your emotional regulation. Build from the inside out. Remember: The top 1% don’t just outwork the world, they out-center it. Mental clarity is the real competitive edge. Reframe faster.  Lead deeper.  Operate at your highest level. ♻️Repost to help someone in your network. 🔔Follow Luke Tobin for more emotional intelligence wisdom.

    The wrong table will cost you more than money. Here's why. You sit down. Everyone's talking about other people. No one’s building. No one’s growing. And suddenly, you start playing small.  Just to fit in. Sitting at the wrong tables will cost you: - years of life and energy - confidence - direction Here's how to make sure you're at the right table: 1. The Energy Check ↳ How do you feel when you leave? - Inspired or insecure? - Energised or exhausted? - That’s the signal. 2. The Conversation Filter ↳ Do they talk about ideas, goals, and execution or gossip, drama, and others? - Build with those who build. 3. The Growth Mirror ↳ Can you share your dreams without shrinking them? - Right rooms make your goals feel possible, not laughable. Your circle is either compounding your growth, or taxing your ambition. One lifts your trajectory. The other keeps you trapped. Choose the tables that multiply you. Not the ones that shrink you. ♻️Repost to help motivate someone in your network. 🔔Follow Luke Tobin for more personal growth insights.

      15 Signs You’re Ready for a Career Change (and questions to ask yourself) Growth feels like discomfort. Staying stuck feels safe. Only one of them leads somewhere better. Remember: You are allowed to want more. You are allowed to change paths. You are allowed to start again. Here are 15 signs you are ready for a career change (and questions to ask yourself): 1. You’re feeling unfulfilled: → Do I feel like I’m making a meaningful contribution? 2. You’re constantly stressed: → Is the stress affecting my overall well-being? 3. You’re no longer learning: → Am I still growing or just coasting? 4. Your values have changed: → Does my job reflect who I am and what I value? 5. You’re losing interest: → Am I still passionate about what I do? 6. You’ve lost passion for your field: → Do I still feel inspired to work in this field? 7. You want more flexibility: → Is my current job allowing me the flexibility I need? 8. You’re looking for new challenges: → Am I being challenged enough in my role? 9. You’re daydreaming about other jobs: → Do I find myself imagining a different career or path? 10. You’re not being recognised: → Am I getting the recognition I deserve for my efforts? 11. Your job no longer challenges you: → Have I outgrown this position? 12. You’re exhausted: → Do I feel energised or drained by my job? 13. Your skills are underutilised: → Am I making full use of my skills and talents? 14. You’re considering what’s next: → Am I actively planning for my next career move? 15. You’re ready for change: → Do I feel ready to make a move and pursue something new? You don’t need a crisis to give yourself permission to evolve. Staying stuck will cost you more than starting over. Take the leap. Your future self will thank you. ♻️Repost to help motivate someone in your network. 🔔Follow Luke Tobin for more personal growth insights.

      We forget 50% of what we learn in 1 hour. In a week, that jumps to over 90%. This explains why you can read all the books, take all the courses, and still feel like nothing sticks. More input ≠ more progress. More action ≠ more learning. The result? Even the most motivated individuals stay stuck in an endless loop. - Wasted hours. - No real skill gain. - Constant overwhelm. So, how do you fix this? By shifting from passive intake to active learning. Follow these steps to start learning like a pro: 1. Schedule time for uninterrupted learning. ↳ Block focused time in your calendar with zero distractions. ↳ Deep work only. 2. Test yourself after learning. ↳ Don’t just re-read. Recall. ↳ Quiz yourself right after learning something new. 3. Make an effort to teach others. ↳ If you can teach it, you understand it. ↳ Try explaining concepts to someone else. 4. Learn by doing. ↳ Build small projects. ↳ Learn through mistakes. Reflect and adjust fast. 5. Set clear goals. ↳ Know what you're learning and why. ↳ Direction creates momentum. 6. Keep showing up. ↳ Make learning a habit. ↳ Start small, stay consistent, and the results compound. 7. Prioritise sleep. ↳ Aim for 7 to 8 hours of quality sleep every night. ↳ Sleep helps improve your memory. 8. Know your purpose. ↳ Identify your “why” before starting something new. ↳ Write it down and keep it visible to stay focused. 9. Build strong focus. ↳ Begin learning with 5 minutes meditation. ↳ Focus on a distant object for 1 minute to prime your brain. 10. Challenge yourself. ↳ Set goals that push you beyond your limits. ↳ Embrace mistakes. The best learners aren’t smarter, they’re more intentional. Structure > motivation. Systems > cramming. Tiny daily habits = massive results over time. Take 30 - 60 minutes a day to follow this advice. Your future self will thank you. ♻️Repost to help your network become ultra-learners. 🔔Follow Luke Tobin for more personal development tips.

      Here’s the truth: Winners don’t work around the clock. They work smarter. Why? They build systems that do the heavy lifting. Meanwhile, most people stay stuck in busywork wondering why they never move forward. But there’s a shift happening. AI isn’t just a tech trend. It’s how top performers buy back their time and operate at a higher level, with less effort. Follow these steps to get 10+ hours back this week  (using AI prompts): 1. Prioritise high-leverage work ↳ Feed your task list to AI. Ask it to rank by ROI and impact. Cut the rest. 2. Turn chaos into clarity ↳ Upload your notes and transcripts and get 5 clear, ranked next steps. 3. Plan like a founder ↳ Build a weekly execution plan based on energy levels and goals. 4. Audit your time like it costs you profit ↳ Run your calendar through AI. Spot what to delete, delegate, or automate. 5. Build 30-minute deep work sprints ↳ When your brain is fried, prompt a focus routine. AI builds it. You follow it. 6. Find fast solutions to tough problems ↳ Skip overthinking. Use AI to generate fast, creative solutions to blockers. 7. Learn with intent, not overload ↳ Design a 30-day micro-learning plan based on your goals, not random content. 8. Review like an operator ↳ Use weekly reflections to optimise faster. Let AI guide the questions. 9. Automate what drains you ↳ Identify recurring tasks that can be automated, templated, or delegated. 10. Sharpen your thinking on demand ↳ Use AI as your strategist. Break down complex problems and clarify your next move. Use these prompts to reclaim your time. Then reinvest that time where it counts. Your unfair advantage starts with using better tools, and fewer excuses. ♻️Repost to help your network work smarter using AI. 🔔Follow Luke Tobin for more productivity tips.

        Delegate like a Fortune 500 CEO. Leaders don't fail by doing too less. They fail from doing too much. Leadership ≠ Control Leaders who confuse leadership with control: - face burnout. - become the bottleneck in daily operations. - miss opportunities. If delegation makes you anxious,  you’re not alone. But avoiding it is costing you time, trust, and growth. Here’s how to delegate like a Fortune 500 CEO: The 4D Framework: ↳ Sort everything:  Do what matters. Defer what can wait. Delegate what others can own Delete what drags you down. The RACI Model: ↳ Clarify ownership by defining who is: - Responsible - Accountable - Consulted - Informed. Eisenhower Matrix: ↳ Prioritise like a strategist:  Urgent + Important? Do it now.  Important, Not Urgent? Delegate.  Neither? Delete. Fortune 500 Delegation Habits: 1. Know your team’s strengths. 2. Set clear goals and timelines. 3. Empower decisions within boundaries. 4. Follow up, don’t micromanage. 5. Give feedback and room to grow. Avoid these traps: - Clinging to control. - Micromanaging or ghosting after assigning. - Skipping training and clarity. Here’s the truth: You weren’t meant to do it all alone. Delegation is a skill and a superpower. It isn’t about giving up control, it’s about creating capacity. For growth.  For strategy.  For leadership. You don’t rise to the top by doing it all.  You rise by knowing what only you should do. ♻️Repost to help your network delegate confidently. 🔔Follow Luke Tobin for more.

        Your qualifications won’t save you. Your skills will. The world of work is evolving faster than ever. Shout out to Chris Donnelly for the powerful visual and insights behind this post. AI isn’t just coming for repetitive jobs, it’s reshaping what value looks like in every industry. By 2030,  employers won’t only be hiring based on experience or credentials. They’ll be hiring based on skills that can't be automated - thinking critically, - adapting quickly, - and leading with influence. If you're still relying on yesterday's skillset to navigate tomorrow's economy… You're not just playing small, you're playing risky. Here are the top skills to master by 2030 (learn this to future-proof your career): 1. Analytical thinking – The ability to dissect problems and make clear, informed decisions will be one of your greatest assets. 2. Resilience, flexibility, and agility – Change is constant. Learn to pivot without panic. 3. AI and big data literacy – You don’t need to become a data scientist, but you do need to understand the tech shaping your field. 4. Creative thinking – Automation can do many things, but it can’t imagine the future or invent what doesn’t exist yet. 5. Leadership and social influence – Influence is the new currency. Your ability to lead, inspire, and connect will drive your value. In the new economy, curiosity is a competitive edge. Adaptability is your superpower. And reinvention? That’s non-negotiable. The professionals who will dominate 2030? They’re not the ones clocking in and zoning out. They’re the ones: - learning faster, - thinking sharper, - and moving smarter. Evolve or get replaced.

          Here’s the truth: Most people clap after the win. The best ones clap before the win. Before the followers, there were friends. Before the praise, there were pep talks. Before the wins, there were words that kept you going. Staying grounded isn’t about humility. It’s about remembering. Here’s a quick framework to stay rooted: 1. Reflect weekly:  - Write down 3 people who supported you early. Keep them in mind. 2. Give credit publicly:  - Shine the light back on those who lit yours. 3. Stay accessible: - Success doesn’t mean isolation. Keep your circle close. 4. Serve backwards: - Mentor someone in the place you once were. 5. Celebrate privately:  - Not every win needs a post some need a phone call. Remember: People don’t just remember what you built, they remember who you were becoming along the way. Win loud.  But be loyal to the ones who clapped in the silence. ♻️Repost to help motivate others in your network 🔔Follow Luke Tobin for more personal growth insights. cc Justin Wright (Shout out for the image and essential reminder!)

            If a paycheck costs you your mental health, it is too expensive. You deserve a workplace that doesn’t just pay the bills, Instead: - Gives you space to grow - Helps you thrive - Feel valued and safe Here’s what to look for when seeking a workplace that nurtures your peace of mind: 1. Prioritise your mental peace → Look for a culture that supports your personal and professional growth. 2. Seek alignment with your values → Find a company that shares your principles and respects your work-life balance. 3. Ask the right questions during interviews → Don’t just ask about the role, ask about the culture, the leadership, and the values. 4. Look for leaders who lead with empathy → A good leader will support your well-being as much as they challenge you. 5. Pay attention to team dynamics → A healthy team culture will encourage collaboration and support, not competition and stress. 6. Choose companies that offer flexibility → Flexibility is key to maintaining a healthy balance between work and life. 7. Assess if work-life balance is respected → Make sure the company doesn’t just say they value it, they live it. 8. Pay attention to employee turnover → High turnover can signal a toxic culture, while low turnover suggests stability and respect. 9. Trust your gut → If something feels off about the culture, it probably is. 10. Observe how they handle conflict → A company that values peace will address issues calmly and constructively, without drama or hostility. Your job is not just a source of income, it should be a source of growth and peace.

                    Only 1 in 3 managers defend their teams. That’s a workplace crisis. No defense = no trust.  No trust = no loyalty.  And loyalty is everything. When managers fail to protect their people: - Employees stop believing their leaders have their back. - People feel undervalued and demotivated. - Without support, stress builds up quickly. - Talented employees leave for safer, supportive environments. - Distracted, disengaged teams perform poorly. - Fear and blame replace collaboration and innovation. So, what’s the fix? Lead like you mean it. Defend your people like your business depends on it, because it does. Here's how to start leading with more courage: 1. Intercept blame early - Don’t wait for problems to escalate. Step in the moment you see unfair pressure. 2. Push back up the chain - Protect your team by challenging bad decisions from above. 3. Celebrate wins loudly - Public praise boosts confidence and culture. 4. Own mistakes privately -Take responsibility so your team can learn without fear. 5. Build a safe space -Encourage honest conversations, vulnerability, and feedback. True leadership is shown in who you protect, not just who you manage. The strongest leaders fight battles their teams don’t see. Your people are the heartbeat of your organisation.

                      A reality check: You could be 15% better by doing this: ↳ Surrounding yourself with people smarter than you. Working with smart people is not a threat. Most people never make it past this mindset shift, and it silently kills their potential. Not being the smartest in the room: ≠ weakness. ≠ incompetence. ≠ losing control. Here’s how to turn it into your greatest advantage (and position yourself for growth): 1. Seek out A-players who challenge your thinking. 2. Hire for strengths you don’t have. 3. Encourage open debate and feedback. 4. Let go of the need to always be “right”. 5. Celebrate ideas, not egos. 6. Empower others to lead. 7. Be transparent about what you don’t know. 8. Make curiosity your superpower. 9. Learn faster by asking better questions. 10. Make room for brilliance to rise without needing to own it. Smart people aren’t a threat. They’re a much needed wake-up call for your growth. A Harvard-backed study found this: Just sitting near high performers can boost your performance by up to 15%. It’s called the spillover effect. Remember: Insecurity hoards power. Leadership multiplies it. You don’t grow by being the best.

                        Big goals = big discomfort. Small goals = silent regret. When you're around people chasing massive goals,  something shifts. You start to believe bigger is possible. You become more. Do this to design your environment for maximum growth: 1. Audit your circle ↳ Who do you spend the most time with? Are they pushing limits or settling? ↳ Surround yourself with fire-starters who make you uncomfortable (in the best way). 2. Join high-aspiration spaces ↳ Masterminds, growth communities, where big thinkers gather, energy rises. ↳ Proximity breeds possibility. 3. Seek mentors with 10x vision ↳ Learn from those who’ve already gone where you want to go. ↳ Borrow their belief until you build your own. 4. Cut energy drainers ↳ Limit time with people who complain more than they create. ↳ You can’t soar while dragging anchors. 5. Normalise big conversations ↳ Make goal-setting, risk-taking, and growth the default in your daily dialogues. ↳ Big dreams feel more achievable when they’re spoken often. Big goals aren’t just built, they’re caught.

                          Here's the harsh truth: Employees don't care about.. - Free pizza. - Company swag. - Happy hours. These perks are nice. But they're not what truly matters. What employees actually care about goes much deeper. It's about creating an environment where people can thrive. Think about what your team really needs: → Fair Pay: Compensation that reflects their value → Trust and Transparency: Open and honest communication → Supportive Managers: Leaders who empower and guide → Respect: A culture of mutual appreciation → Meaning and Purpose: Work that feels impactful → Flexibility: Balance between work and life These are the foundations of a satisfied workforce. A slice of pizza can't replace a slice of respect. Invest in what they truly value. ♻️Repost to help someone in your network. 🔔Follow Luke Tobin for more workplace wisdom.
