The 5 Money Mindsets: 5 Promotions in 9 Years
Saturday, October 26, 2024
One of my friends got 5 promotions in 9 years
Another friend got 5 promotions in 11 years
You might be thinking ‘no way can I achieve this’
Read this post carefully and read it again. It is so so important to help you understand the mindset required
This really helped me to scale my career fast. I reached Commercial Lead in 5 years from graduation and passed my RICS the year after.
it is based on your learning ability.
To really understand how to make the most out of any business education or learning opportunity, it's crucial to adopt the mindset that success is more about your attitude and approach rather than the specific program or teacher.
Here’s a breakdown of how you can maximise your learning and growth as a Quantity Surveyor:
Levels of Mindsets:
Level 1: Positive Active:
- Mindset: "No one has proven it can’t be done, so I will do it."
- Approach: Take full responsibility for your success. Believe that you can be the best student regardless of the teacher's competence. This mindset is about proving that you can make any system work through sheer determination and adaptability.
Level 2: Positive Passive:
- Mindset: "If someone else can do it, so can I. If someone can get 5 promotions in 9 years, so can I”
- Approach: Follow proven methods and replicate the success of others. This approach involves learning from those who have succeeded before you and applying their methods to achieve similar results.
Level 3: Neutral Passive:
- Mindset: "It has worked for others, let's see if it works for me."
- Approach: This is a more passive approach where you are open to the possibility of success but not actively working to ensure it. You rely on external factors more than internal drive.
Level 4: Negative Passive:
- Mindset: "It might work for others, but it probably won’t work for me."
- Approach: Doubtful and half-hearted, this level involves trying things out without full commitment, often leading to subpar results due to a lack of effort and belief in the process.
Level 5: Negative Active:
- Mindset: "I can prove that this won’t work for me."
- Approach: Actively seeking to validate your belief that success is not possible for you. This mindset often leads to self-sabotage and a cycle of failure.
Success in the construction industry is more about your mindset and approach to education than the specific details of the program or teacher.
By adopting a positive active mindset, accumulating relevant skills, and learning from both successes and failures, you can maximise your return on investment from any educational experience.
Remember, it’s not the program that makes you successful; it’s your dedication and willingness to make it work that truly counts.

The Two Quantity Surveyors: Change vs Stagnation
There is a lot of change coming to the Quantity Surveying world. AI and software are coming fast. In the near future software will take over 70% of the work that Quantity Surveyors are doing right now. That is very scary. My aim is to make you aware of which Quantity Surveyor you are so you can be proactive and start making plans to adapt. The question is..who would you rather be? And will you adapt? In a big city known for its ever-evolving skyline, two quantity surveyors, Tom and Sarah, began their careers at the same construction firm. Both were bright, hardworking, and eager to make their mark in the industry.
