Rewards And Success Come Through Bravery And Ingenuity - with James Constantinou

James Constantinou is the CEO of Prestige Pawn Brokers, an asset finance expert, and the star of Channel 4's Posh Pawn. James joins Steven on this episode, to talk about the path he's taken as one of the brightest entrepreneurs in the country, the formula behind his incredible success, and how his stint on television has changed life forever.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Formal education is the norm laid down by society, but it should never dictate the path we walk in life. You gain far more knowledge and experience from life itself.
Success doesn't ever depend on your background or where you're from. Success finds people with enough drive to seek it out, and who work tirelessly to achieve it.
Failure isn't about doors closing forever. Failure teaches us lessons about how to succeed. It also means that we are moving closer towards a yes.
If you're waiting to be perfect at something, then you'll never take the leap you need. Far better to be as ready as you think you need to be, and learn everything else on the job.
BEST MOMENTS
'Always try and sell when you can in the right way'
'I knew from an early age that an O level or an A level was not going to get me anywhere'
'You've got to have drive'
'I get a kick out of a little bit of risk'

ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn't be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships.
As a person who has made a success in life and also made huge cock-ups I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit. My 'Study' has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception, of successful people and I, know a lot of successful people from all walks of life.
My 'Study' coming from my experiences in business, investing, sales (my core background), training, boxing and education has enabled me to become well rounded and successful and I will help you in these key areas too.
