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.

Beautiful invention by consultants paid by the slide. And who have never actually managed a project. They design 47 KPIs. Each with a definition. A formula. A weighting. A threshold. And a 93-page document explaining how they work. Or how they're supposed to work… Of course, nobody really knows… but they...
A helicopter is a jodidamente difficult machine. To fly one, you must coordinate several controls simultaneously. Get one wrong, and things become… let’s say unpleasant. Get several wrong, and your career as a pilot may be short. First, you learn to take off. Then to fly. Then to fly at night. Then in formation. Then, perhaps, in combat. And only after mastering all that might someone reasonably ask you to land on a moving aircraft carrier. In the middle of a storm. At night. Now, imagine the...
