Change can happen to you. If you are one of those that think that a person cannot change… go to the ophthalmologist, you need a review. If you are one of those that think that YOU can’t change and grow… there is a bottom that says unsubscribe. Please click. Change can be fast. Change can also be permanent. Vinh Giang, a raising start in communication, says that “don’t be so attached to who you are in the present, that you don’t give the future version of you a chance”. And he is so right.

But… When there is an aviation tragedy… well… you know what happens. Vivid memories. We like to believe we are purely rational beings making...
My son is now obsessed with rockets. He wants to go to the moon. Good for him. We’ll get there very soon… again. If you don’t know the story of Apollo 13, you should pay attention… because it has lessons for you too. NASA did not become NASA because everything went perfectly. Quite the opposite. Rockets exploded. Calculations failed. Systems broke. People died. And every time something went wrong, they did one thing better than almost anyone else: They learned. Apollo 13 is the famous...
The Spanish did not conquer Peru only with steel, horses, and ambition. They also arrived with something much more powerful. Lessons learned. Before Peru, there was Mexico. Before Pizarro, there was Cortés. Before Atahualpa, there was Moctezuma. The Spanish had already seen what worked. They had seen how alliances with local enemies could change the entire game.
