Breathing reality

Published almost 2 years ago • 1 min read

"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.

However, think twice of that nonsense.

Reality isn’t ruthless to those who deny it—reality is ruthless, period.

And the nuance is important.

Reality doesn’t expect anything from you; it’s just there to devour you.

It’s your ability to accept it that softens the blow.
If, where there was a hungry bear, you saw a cute puppy, well, the bear would eat you, and no one would miss you because everyone was already fed up with you always being a drama queen and causing problems.

Fresh air is necessary in companies so that reality hits accommodated managers and employees. This is one of the key benefits of consultants.

For people, like you and I, seminars, coaches and mentors bring that fresh air.

With nuance or without, fresh air in your thinking and mindset can only provide some good.

Take a look below and breath.

Getting embarrassed. 20 years of experience to the bin

I’m writing this from China… I’m here for a trade fair… well… two. Tiles. Kitchens. Bathrooms. Doors. Windows. As you know, I’m building my real estate empire on the side. Which means moving my @ss, meeting suppliers, asking questions and starting from zero somewhere nobody particularly cares what I did before. Former CEO? Lovely. Board experience? Wonderful. Twenty years in infrastructure? Very impressive, sir. Now, how many toilets would you like? Fair enough. Look. There’s a lesson here...

Your boss loves the idea. My condolences.

Any project in the world has a meeting like this. The most senior person says: “I think this is an excellent opportunity.” Suddenly, everyone discovers they think so too. Extraordinary. Twenty minutes earlier, the project looked like a hostage note. Now it’s “a compelling investment proposition.” The spreadsheet hasn’t changed. The boss has spoken. 1961 During the planning of the Bay of Pigs invasion Presidential adviser Arthur Schlesinger had serious reservations. He put objections in...

One Angry Client Used A Whip In A Dispute. This is the story

The story about King Xerxes is fascinating, and you should know it. Look. Some clients send an angry email when infrastructure fails. Others call their lawyers. King Xerxes had even a more ambitious escalation procedure. He whipped the sea. Yes. Apparently, the King was very ambitious, in general. He had bridges built across the Hellespont so his Persian army could cross into Europe. Until here… All good. The issue is that a storm destroyed the bridges. At the time, they did not have ACONEX...
