Don't do this through WhatsApp

The podcast? Recorded online. 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. 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. ​ In facing it, accepting that it’s an essential part of a fulfilling life. Seek out the conflict, don’t avoid it.

Maybe you love paying for the “experience.” The...
“Learn the rules like a pro… so you can break them like an artist.” — Pablo Picasso I used to repeat this to my teams when the time came… But if you asked them what Vicente would do in almost any situation, the answer was simple: “Follow the contract.” Always. Because most people don’t even understand the rules they’re trying to “bend”. They jump to shortcuts. They improvise. They create risk. That’s not creativity. That’s incompetence. First, you master the contract. You know every clause....
Research shows that doctors with 20 years of experience… Are often less skilled than when they first left medical school. Read that again. Less skilled. Let that sink in. These doctors didn’t become worse overnight. They just stopped evolving. They got trapped in routines. In habits. In outdated ways of thinking. So instead of 20 years of experience… They have 1 year of experience repeated 20 times. Shocking? Really? Because, it shouldn’t be. This is the norm. Think of... Engineering....
