208 - RAW Worldwide African Safaris with Shane Ross

Raw Worldwide African Safaris is owned and operated by Shane Ross, a Cairns local who is passionate about sharing the wildlife wonders of Africa. As Shane explains, it's virtually impossible to tell what you'll feel seeing 50,000 Wilderbeast during the Great Migration or hearing a Lion roaring in the distance while you sleep safely in your tent. (Far better experience than visiting a zoo) Africa is a land of real magic - it exists in every living thing, around every corner you turn, and occupies even the most distant horizons. Africa abounds with mystical creatures, enchanted forests, and arguably the richest cultural diversity of any continent worldwide, and is still a land of ample opportunity - where authentically wild adventures and exploration are easily sought.

After finishing the series I thought there was a major business lesson to be learnt that was worth sharing. In sport, we're told not to take our eyes off the ball and there is a good reason for this, you'll drop the ball. In business, it's no different, you must stay focused on what is important and not get distracted. Joe Exotic was a very interesting character, and he stuffed up big time. Instead of focusing on his own zoo, he focused his attention and hatred towards an animal activist Carole Baskin. It was this unhealthy obsession that cost him everything and to be honest I've seen podiatrist do this as well. In Cairns, I had a similar experience with a podiatry competitor who spent far too much time on me and not enough on his own business. In the end, I prospered and he did not. (Watch the video and it will make a lot more ...
