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.

Problems don’t solve magically themselves. Wishes never come true unless you move your a$$. This is true for...
I told you about Horward before. 1982. New York. A young guy joined a company. Not as CEO. Not as strategist. Not as “Head of Vision.” Director of Retail Operations. Exciting, right? Mid-level. Replaceable. Just another guy executing someone else’s plan. The company was called: Starbucks The guy was: Howard Schultz At that time, Starbucks didn’t even sell the “Starbucks experience.” They sold beans. Machines. Coffee equipment. No romance. No Italian fantasy. No global empire. Just beans. But...
Excellent professional. First in coming in. Last in leaving. Sacrificing holidays, family time and even health. Limited recognition. Or not recognition at all. Tried to change career path. “If only you had specific experience”, “It would be great to have it done it before”, “But this is complicated”, “If you had more exposure to clients”, “what’s your commercial experience”. Don’t blame those questions, or the messengers. Fear is logical. In today’s world where you have to cover your @ss at...
