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.

Dear project managers and executivesYou are not paid to referee ego wars.You are paid to protect outcomes. I have seen this many times. And doubts and concerns freeze you like a bunny looking at the two lights of the car moving to you. Look. If you're witnessing a standoff between two inflated egos, do everyone a favor:Remove them both—or at least the one you can control. Will it feel disruptive? Yes.Expensive? Maybe.Unfair? Possibly. But trust me... it’s a bargain compared to the cost of...

You know that working 8 hours a day for over 40 years straight, just to retire and finally enjoy “the life of your dreams” in the last stage of your life has never been my cup of tea. My goal is not the Lambo. It’s not drinking overpriced wine… and obviously not New Zealand red wines. I just want to own my time. That’s it. Some people call this financial freedom. You know that I read about the subject. Forums, blogs, books, and… from time to time I did it on social media. Yes… it was a time...

When I had no money, I spent my days around people who criticized others. Now that I have a little money, all I hear when someone talks about others is: “I love that guy,” “He’s brilliant,” “What a machine”, “Qué huevos tiene”, etc. Failures focus on hating. Successful people focus on admiring—and finding people worth admiring. Failures assume malice. Successful people assume kindness. Failures obsess over what they don’t like. Successful people are blind to what they don’t like. Failures...
