Sometimes in business you fail. Overconfidence. Bad calculations. Hiring the bad people. Weak systems… and a few times, simply bad luck. My failures and my teachers. My losses my investment. I’m lucky that I have a successful brother and remembers me all these things. He is also able to see the good news in every failure, even if it is a great loss. As Robert Kiyosaki said: Success is a poor teacher. We learn the most about ourselves when we fail, so don’t be afraid of failing. Failing is part of the process of success. You can’t have success without failure”. Every failure, at work, in your business, in your relationships, is keeping you closer to where you want to be. Just take the learning. And forget the rest. It’s that simple. And that hard. ​ I can listen to you and your failures, and get the best of them. Click below and let’s start talking.

And the market said what the market always says: “Of course, I can, it’s possible. I cannot be fired or lose my bonus… so, I confirm that we can design, build, finance, and maintain...
I have 4 airbnb apartments in Auckland. 3 perfoming well. 1 slagging. Quien no llora no mama or who does not cry, he is not breastfeed, or less literally, if you don't cry, you don't get fed. I sent an email. What’s going on? I’m disappointed. What I can do to help. In 48 hours or less, the calendar in the slagging apartment is full. No response, just facts. Like magic… back on track. This situation is not unusual. In my 20 years managing projects and people, I’ve seen this almost every day....
Codie Sanchez once explained that “If you want to know where future fortunes will be made, don’t look at markets; look at rooms” And she continued: “Wealth follows proximity. The closer you are to capital, information, and ambition, the higher your expected return. If compounding is the eighth wonder of the world, proximity is the ninth.” This is probably the best piece of advice I have received in the last 12 months. Economists call it agglomeration, the phenomenon where productivity and...
