About powerful reflexes
|
Repetition is a very powerful tool. I’ve done kung fu for many years. You can do very well a movement, understand the technique, but only the repetition of that technique more than 1000 times makes you interiorize the technique and convert it into a reflex. It’s that simple. Repetition. If you are to use that technique in real life and a punch comes in, you don’t have the time to think about the technique. If you do, the punch got you first. This is something that you can apply to anything you do. And it works for the best and the worst. You repeat badly… you’ll interiorize that reflex. That’s bad. ​ And this is something that works mentally. The rehearsal of meetings and situations in your brain is more important than you think. Do it over and over and your answers will become reflexes… Instead, many people tell themselves after an important meeting: “sh*t, I should have said that”. ​ You know what I’m talking, right? ​ But there is more than that. ​ It’s about you treat yourself. ​ Remember, the most important resource in your project or business is yourself. ​ You need to take care of yourself, forgive your mistakes, and avoid being too hard on yourself. Occasionally, allow yourself to take a break—a free day to disconnect from responsibilities and recharge. Reflect on why you're putting in this effort, doubling your time and energy, and realign with your goals. ​ Being hard on yourself is non-sense… and if you do it every time after a mistake, it will become a reflex… To avoid it, your brain you stay quiet… instead of taking calculated risks. ​ I can give you a hand with reflexes. You can book me below.

I’ve been doing quite a lot of work these days with market lead proposals. I mean, proposals coming directly from the market and made to the government of New Zealand. I love the ideas put forward by proponent. Their enthusiasm. And commitment. Most of them fail in the “exclusivity” criteria. Why you are so good that the government absolutely needs to negotiate with you directly without going to the market. It’s fascinating. That’s a high bar, but some people get through it. IP, exclusive...
Most construction disasters happen on Mondays. Some on Fridays. But only the truly legendary ones wait for Christmas Day. New York City, 2007. Downtown Manhattan. A 40-storey office tower under construction. Skeleton up, façade almost done, 70% completed. The kind of project where everyone, owner, contractor, union, inspectors, just wants to go home and eat turkey. On the morning of December 25th, a security guard on site hears something strange: “Clank… clank… clank…” He thinks it’s a rat. A...
