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.

If you thought that I’ll be telling you happy new year stuff, you don’t know me enough. Once that you over drink and over eat tonight, you have one year ahead. To grow. To become better. To achieve great things. Up to you, what you want to do tomorrow. When there are some people messing around with “resaca” or a “hangover”, others will be running.

Brisbane, Australia. 2011. A hot, humid year, and an even hotter PPP disaster: the Clem7 Tunnel. Traffic numbers tanked. Revenue collapsed. The SPV went into voluntary administration. And the government, tired, embarrassed, politically cornered… decided to move fast. Maybe too fast. “Take control. Sort the mess. Do it now.” And they did. At light speed.
