Brent Grundy has actually been branded \u201cThe Man Who Tried Everything\u201d and as you will hear from the interview, it\u2019s a title he richly deserves! Brent\u2019s most successful venture is Flip Out International: a global children\u2019s play business that spread from Sydney to 87 locations worldwide in just 6 years. Brent keeps going back to the point that failure is something to be cherished and used to empower your next move - he has a very interesting take on things. See some of Brent\u2019s top tips below: ** To get ahead you\u2019ve got to find a problem and create a solution. ** You don\u2019t need to be the smartest guy in the room - you just have to hire that guy. ** If something doesn\u2019t work, stop doing it! Don\u2019t dwell - move onto the next thing. ** Every time you lose you still gain something. You may lose money in the short term but this loss may empower you to make big money in future. ** Cheap lawyers can cost you the most! Invest in your legal team to make sure you are properly protected. ** Work out what your skills are and play to them. If you\u2019re and entrepreneurial risk-taker, don\u2019t assume that you\u2019ll be a good manager of the day to day. ** You don\u2019t learn a lesson until it becomes really painful, i.e. losing money.
