    Colin Browning – Technologically Generous

    Quick-Show Notes:

    In this episode of The Millionaire’s Lawyer, JP and Colin Browning discuss:

    Backing things up on to a USB every so often is a great idea

    Major technological failings in corporations are:

    • Have never invested in anything technological
    • Are unaware of who has access to what digital asset
    • Understanding what a back up is, and how important they are
    • Having a technology Disaster Recovery plan should be essential to every company.

    Monstrous task to get everything back if you don’t have things backed up; with a chance of losing everything.

    Threats are not as imminent as the marketing makes you feel; you’re not that interesting to hackers yet.

    Hackers are generally going for resources

    Best advice for preventative measures:
    • Be as secure as you can afford
    • Invest in user training
    • Online password managers

    “Hijacked” – Actively locked down
    • Make sure you have adequate documentation
    • Modern Firewall
      • Modern viruses are not fight-able, have a back up so that if you get any you can reset everything and back up.
    Future of tech businesses post COVID-19
    • A lot of people will have learned more about technology and how to use it
    • People will realise that AI will one day be able to replace their job
    AI
    • Quite far ahead
    • Giving power over to AI would allow us to do more of what we want
    • “AI Collective”
    • More good is created then negative

    Kids and tech is like gambling

    The Internet here in Canada sucks due to us being the second-largest landmass.

    Principals to Launch a Business:
    1. Persistence
    2. Know what you are good at
    3. Don’t go big, borrow if you don’t have to, or lose sight of your goal
    4. Take a step back if needed
    Learning lessons for past failures:
    • Hire out people who are better than you at your weaknesses
    • Communicate to your peers
    • Reflect on both the positive and the negative; it will allow you to grow and develop both as a person and a business owner

    Learn to relax

    Cut out the negative

    Personal development is huge

    Be aware of where things are coming from –  a positive or negative source

    80/20 Rule

    80% noisy clients, take up a lot of your time, 20% quite customers that can at least make your baseline

    Be persistent

    Do the obvious

    Hire out

    Find time for yourself.
