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.

Taleb remarked that, while the executive may seem to have a calmer, more secure life with a better salary, better suits, and nicer restaurants, deep down, he lived in immense internal fear. He sh*t in his pants. This fear...
I say it many times. People prefer to be right than making money. Successful people though have less ego and more money in their pocket. Don’t believe so? Let me ask you what you would do in this situation. In 1997, the movie The War of Troy premiered, with a production budget of $15 million. Easy… probably you never heard of it, right? Well… after it was completed, it was shown in two theatres, sold $309 in tickets, and Warner Brothers pulled it. Sent it to hell. Why? Why not show it in more...
Christmas is a fantastic moment of the year to check how the world work. Many people have no idea of what your hard-earned dollars that move the world work. Many people still ask me whether to invest as a company or as individual. Look. One of the biggest financial predators of our money is the government… Taxes. You want the new Mac. Retail cost 2.300$. Imagine that you are lucky and make 10.000$ a month and you want to buy that Mac. The government eats around 40% in income tax. You got...
