"For those who deny reality, reality is ruthless." ​ If you insist on imposing your vision of the world on others instead of observing, accepting reality, and navigating it, you’ll end up screwed. ​ Nice sentences that you see in websites, social media and so on. ​ And you believe them, because if they are there… they may be true. ​ Reality isn’t ruthless to those who deny it—reality is ruthless, period.

Making millions… if not billions – yes, with “b” for the company. A big, important guy. A great guy, by the way. Personally and professionally. He’s shocked. And in his late 50s… after being at the top in uncountable projects, deciding over the lives of hundreds of employees, contractors and subcontractors. He feels vulnerable. Not sure if you had realized....
One of the people I mentor told me last Tuesday that he wanted to know more about PPPs. I said. You’re wrong. Time to remove your mask.
