Today Codie Sanchez made my email. You choose your hard... so please don’t complain. I’ve been in both, and I’m still deciding what to do next. I take my time, with no rush.

Some people take it for themselves, and keep in pain and frustration. Others go to talk to mentors, coaches and people that are in the same path they want to go. I’m still deciding my hard, but not how I approach. Mentoring can change your life. This is why I’m offering this package for Christmas.

Advisors were celebrating. Many, already paid. Then elections happened. Ahhh… the famous political risk of...
Yesterday I was talking about clarity.Or better said, about simplicity.If you’re not capable of putting it clearly, you don’t have the "pajorera" (faintest damn) idea what you’re talking about. Simplifying is a superpower. How many times have I seen the best technicians we could find for a task make a presentation to a Board of Directors.Charts.Twisted words beyond belief.More jargon… as if it were a competition to see who can pee the furthest.In the end…The sound of crickets. Trying to...
Big table. Bigger egos. Billion-dollar numbers floating around like confetti. We are in the middle of a key meeting of a bid for a PPP project. Slide on the screen. The Bid Director clears his throat. “And now, I’ll pass it to – let’s say - Carlos, who will walk us through the interface risk allocation model.” Silence. People start looking to each other. More looking. Some rumours. Someone nervously laughed… Carlos is not in the room. Not in the building. Not in the country. Where the hell is...
