Be gentle... this is why


Very good people. Highly educated people. Top performers in their field are usually too hard on themselves.

They don’t need a stupid boss.

They do the nasty job on themselves much better.

For every mistake, they dig and dig and dig on it.

​

That’s wrong.

​

My brother uses to say that your brain is always listening to you.

And many times, it does not know if you are joking.

​

So, be especially aware of the words that come from your heart, your stomach, and your soul.

​

If you are going to make a change, you must be aware of the thoughts and words generated by your emotions.

If you are not aware when your emotions are doing your thinking, you will never survive your journey of personal growth and financial freedom.

You will always hold yourself back.

​

So be gentle.

Know that without mistakes, there is no growth.

Without risk, there is no reward.

​

And if you are a risk averse, as I was… start with baby steps.

One book. One small investment. One asking at work. One time of “saying no” to a stupid request. One mentor…

Be gentle.

If you are not going to love the answer, don’t ask. Simple. And still people… ask. I love chocolate. I make a terrific chocolate cake that is being famous in Spain, Canada and New Zealand. I pour fondant chocolate for a small army. 100%. Dark. Real. Pure chocolate. No sugar. I enjoy making this cake so much!! For my 3 year-old son’s birthday… do you think that I’m going to ask parents whether I should put 5 tablets of dark chocolate in the cake? I’d be crazy. Still, many people would ask. For...

Last Friday I almost closed a chapter. A terrible project. Lost lots of money. And of course… I’m looking now for the next. Many people out there play not to lose. But this is a losing strategy. You learn a lot when you lose. You barely know what went really well and why when you just win. It can be anything. But when you lose, you learn. Really well. You adjust. You repeat. You increase the odds for next time. When investing in real estate I see this trend all the time. Invest. It didn’t go...

When you are doing real estate, there are always mistakes. That point that is not well located. The m2 in the council register that does not match reality… Things like that. But you’re more or less alone on this or with your small team. You assume that in multibillion dollar projects, things get more organized. You know. PPPs. So complex. So sophisticated. And… So… human. Yeah, because humans, not banks, not machines, not financial models… humans deliver. And humans “la joden”… or screw it...
