Dividends paid long term
|
We’re always comparing ourselves to others. We shouldn’t. Comparing yourself to others and complaining about anything are your best friends of poverty. What if we showed up to work every day simply to be better than ourselves. What if your objective every day was to become better than your yesterday self. I think that is a better WHY than your pay raise, your next sale, your next business… it pays great dividends on the long run. You don’t need to worry anymore for the next great idea Netanyahu, or what the Excel model of the FED have to say, about your company next quarter result, or that client that resists to “give work”, or the decisions of some guys pumping oil in doggy countries… If you improve yourself every day, you’ll be safe. That’s my promise. If you wake up with that sentence in your mouth every day, if you determine what you’ll improve today, and tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow in your skills, life, business or work… you’ll be unstoppable. I’m preparing something that will give you some ammunition in your efforts. Let me know if you are interested here: ​Click here.

Difficult projects. “I’m not ready for that role.” “They would never hire us.” “This team will never change.” Sometimes we call it experience. Sometimes it’s fear wearing a very respectable suit. And yes, in infrastructure,...
Yesterday, I paid my house insurance again. The house is still standing. Nothing burned down. Another year of terrible returns. I should complain. Which brings me to New Zealand’s proposed LNG import facility. Interesting project… So, of course… Everyone has an opinion. Too expensive. Ridiculous. Essential. A disaster. And that’s before anyone opens the spreadsheet. Here is how I look at projects like this one. An insurance policy. Domestic gas supplies are declining. When the hydro lakes run...
I spent two weeks without WhatsApp. Not a digital detox. Life made the decision for me. As a business owner, consultant, investor, and someone with hundreds of friends all over the world… I was uncomfortable. When I finally opened it, I had around 2,600 unread messages. Honestly, I was surprised there were so few. But the bigger surprise? Nothing terrible had happened. A humbling discovery. Apparently, the universe had continued operating without my blue ticks. Things stayed under control....
