About cheating
|
They call it “cheating”. That bad it is. The school system, the system paid and sustained by your taxes. They train students to take tests on their own. If a child attempts to cooperate at test time… as I said… it is called ‘cheating.’ In the real world, business owners cooperate at test time. Engineers cooperate at test time. And so on… In life, except in the critical time for your brain, school time, every day is test time. Then, they penalize you to make mistakes. You do a mistake; you fail the test. You are blamed, even ridiculed. In real life, many entrepreneurs don’t really become businesspeople until after they lose their first business. Salespeople, the same. You must lose many sales, to become good at work. We continue to be trained and wired as in the industrial times when we needed meat for the factories. The damage to your brain can be permanent. Scaping almost impossible. I don’t know what you do, or how you want your children to be educated. But I want my child to learn by doing, and by making mistakes. I want him to be creator and innovator. I’ve been in corporate life for too long to know that staying busy in your busyness and not building anything is chain your future to a blackberry. You can also start building. On the side, without stupid risks. With the two feet on the ground. Building a career increasing your options. Building a business without risking your life. Building your wealth without breaking a bank. Common sense. Join my mentorship - Only $24.90 - LAUNCHING PRICE PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

Yes, you can. But you know what you need to get there… Don’t you know? Yes. Action. Start doing. Stop thinking and do, do and do. As simple as that. As hard as that. Nothing can be done without you doing it. Nobody can do it for you. Don’t wait for the divine providence to come with the work that only you can do. It’s scaring, I agree. You can lose time. You can lose reputation. You can lose money. But… You can learn. You can grow. You can reach freedom. Up to you. Time to think about what...
When you have something truly valuable to offer the world, don’t beat around the bush or hide behind metaphors. Offer it straight up. No sugar-coating. No fluff. No perfect words. Or borrowed-from-books strategy. Or watched-in-social-media approach. Just raw and real. That’s exactly how I operate when a company or individual asks me for advice. Unfiltered. Without Vaseline. I tell them what’s really going on — and it’s usually not what they want to hear. I say it with fewer words and less...
Some people say they learn more from their mistakes than their successes. That’s true… but that doomed. My non solicited advice of today is “don’t try that in real estate”. You simply cannot keep making mistakes in real estate to learn… you’ll end up broke! The cost a lot of money. There is an old proverb that goes something like this: “A fool learns from his own mistakes, the wise man learns from the mistakes of others.” So, don’t make mistakes that you can learn from others. Many people...
