Very wise words. It's taken me a long time to understand priorities and goals, but I think I've got it sussed now. The first thing in the morning is pick pack post. Then breakfast. Then it's 2 to 3 hours of the normal things shopping gardening decorating or just time with family. Late afternoon is photos and listings, any questions get answered between 5 and 6 pm. Then I'm TRYING not to look at my phone until the following morning. I usually only source new stuff on a Thursday OR Friday. I'm lucky enough to get most of my stock from one place. I rarely go to charity shops or boot fairs anymore as the prices are too high and far too many resellers in the southeast to complete with. This wouldn't work for everyone but certainly does for me. Your videos, along with Ricky's, are a good source of inspiration. Keep them coming
Wow! Thankyou so much for such a detailed comment sharing your process🙏😊 it’s an ongoing thing I life I think, our goals and priorities will continue to shift as we keep growing. So it’s great to do some active reflection every now and then to make sure we are still behaving in a way that is going to meet our desired outcomes 😊 That right there sounds excellent! I’m so glad you’ve been able to find a flow that works for you so well. The one thing I would be cautious about, and of course you know your own situation better than me haha, but what if that single sourcing location was closed one week? Or didn’t have the stuff you wanted? Would you be able to meet your listing goal that week? Since I started to diversify where I got my stock from I feel so much more confident to know I can get things even if one avenue is unavailable for whatever reason 😊 I really appreciate you watching the vids and I’m glad you are able to resonate with them. Keep up the great work 🥳
2:02 I'm a lot older than you and a fair bit older than Ricky, but enjoy both of your content, and I've learnt so much from both of you. Ill health forced me to give up my previous business, but doing this has made me the most content I've ever been work wise. I would prefer to source from different places, but in Kent, there are sooo many resellers to compete with at boot fairs and in charity shops. My source is currently on holiday, but he gives me notice so I can stock up. At present I am the only one he sells to, so I won't mention where it is 😂. Having a business before rellselling has helped. BUT please don't stop making videos
Great video, love the bit where you talked about deciding to source or list. I am always out sourcing, and my partner is always saying you need to get it listed, I am only doing it on a small scale, as I work a full time job too. I started to resell in October 2023 and I have stuff from then that still isn't listed
Hiya Jimbo, thanks for watching mate, I’m glad you enjoyed it! I’m so glad you found value in that. I hear you 100% man. Last year, I was exactly where you are right now. I had basically a whole room full of stock that I’d paid money for and was making nothing from. Just fuelling, essentially, my addiction to sourcing at the time. Which just isn’t healthy for the business or for space and stress reasons. It took me loosing my full time job to really begin the big deep dive into the death pile I had accumulated. Dont let that be you, if you can gain control and discipline over the thrill of sourcing and switch it to what is actually needed most, the top priority task, you will be in such a better position this time next year. Reward yourself for doing it too, make going home and listing your stock a better experience than going to a dusty shop. Enjoy it, take pride in your stock and get it listed so it can start working for you rather than just be draining from you 🫡 feel free to send me a message on insta anytime bud, you got this!
Thankyou so much Tam & Belle 😊 it’s been fun spreading my wings for sure haha. The journey is no where near over, but it’s good to have a bit of reflecting time every now and then 😊 Onwards & Upwards we goo! A rising tide, raises all ships 🫡
Great video mate and nicely put. Like you said, you can already see your own personal growth as well as your business. And the knowledge and experience you gained is invaluable. Congrats buddy! Life is a looong learning curve no matter how long we've been at something 🙏👌💪☀️
Hiya Mark, Thankyou so much for your comment! I really appreciate you. I couldn’t agree more! My primary school head teacher always used to say to us, “I’m 58, I’ve been playing the piano for 55 of those years, and I still don’t know everything there is to know on these 52 keys” 🎹 I never quite got it as a young kid, but man o man, how true that statement is. We evolve and so does the craft, new layers are revealed only was we go through them 😊 it’ll be fun to look back on this video in another years time and compare! Keep on learning mate! I hope you have a great week ahead 🥳
I know you’ll probably see this I’m from the us and new to this but have you ever had an item returned from the Consolidation Center? Or if you know of anyone who has. I’m desperately trying to figure out why my item is being returned back from the Consolidation Center
@@liamedmunds3051 Hahaha that’s hilarious! 😂🤣 It’s the little things aye? Thankyou for checking out the channel! I hope you enjoy the vids, fellow Bristolian 🫡
Good advice,different priorities for me,I'm 60,sorted out accumulating assets and ready for a good retirement traveling,thats something i would recommend, something like gold,s&p 500,microstratigy etc ,personally its bitcoin for me
Thanks so much for watching and dropping a comment 🫡 That’s awesome! It sounds like you’ve had your head screwed on and your assets can carry you through the next adventure 😊 there’s definitely so many avenues to take when looking at “assets” as a whole. For now, this is the business I’m growing, once i’ve found a way to replace myself, I can then get involved with other things to grow the empire as it were haha. Thats the plan anyway 🫡 I hope you have a great week ahead!
Needed to hear this today, wise words! Thank you and keep smashing it man!
You are most welcome! I’m glad your could resonate with what I was saying to some degree 😊 Thankyou, I hope you have a wonderful week ahead 🥳

@@resellingthedream Kent is terrible for charity shops, everywhere is overpriced or picked clean, some places like Canterbury have 0 signal too.
Same in Maidstone
@@resellingthedream yeah, I rarely go there and the times I have, I either never find anything or something with a very low profit margin.
