Don't do this through WhatsApp

Published 8 months ago • 1 min read

The podcast? Recorded online.
The sale? Done via email.
Prospecting? Through social media.

Dating? On Tinder.

Saying no? Through WhatsApp.

Firing someone? On a piece of paper.

The meeting? On videoconference.

The reasons for a raise? In a Power Point.

Persistence? Better not, just in case it annoys someone.

Something very similar was explained a few days ago by the great Monge Malo, the best sales coach in Spanish language this week.

And he is so right.

You spend your life doing whatever it takes to avoid conflict, risk, expense, or loss…

Weak. Gallina.

Go, call, show up, and slam your fist on the table.

The sale, the raise, the agreement, the job done, are in the conflict.

In facing it, accepting that it’s an essential part of a fulfilling life.

Seek out the conflict, don’t avoid it.
No one ever won a war by hiding in the trenches. Worse yet, they ended up dying just the same.

Since you’re going to be rejected anyway, since they’ll get annoyed and even insult you no matter what, at least do what you need to do to make it happen.

Extremely tight Lululemon leggings

It’s the weekend and you’re off to brunch. One of those trendy cafés. You’re calmly sipping your latte. And then you see them coming. A mob. One of those “meet-ups.” Apparently they organize through an app… or so my wife tells me. They meet up and go exercise together. No fewer than a hundred. All headed to our café. $300 sneakers, skin-tight - very tight - Lululemon leggings at $200 per leg, Hugo Boss caps at $50 per ear… You get the picture. On average, about $1,000 in “athleisure.” They...

I saw the danger coming

This past Sunday, I was walking with my wife and son. A construction site. My son loves them. They were dismantling a big crane. Right next to our house. I was telling my wife… “For less than that, I shut down an entire work front on my last project.” There was a worker walking along the crane, without a harness. “He should be wearing a harness… Actually, he shouldn’t even be up there.” “Well,” my wife said, “That guy over there isn’t wearing one either, maybe they don’t need them.” “He...

What's the worst thing that could happen in a birthday party?

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...
