How to fly in simple steps
|
Meeting great people is the best exercise. It’s the best food to your brain. If they are business people, you could be flying. I could tell you about the successes of the people I’ve just spent a few hours with. I could tell you about incredible testimonials, excitements, high and lows, numbers that would make jaws drop, and statements that seem almost unreal. But all of that is irrelevant compared to what you can feel too, being surrounded by dozens of people like them. Having a group of friends like this doesn’t just help you succeed—it makes it inevitable. If you want to grow. If you want to fly. If you want to achieve more… surround yourself of people you admire and that are a few steps ahead of you. Nothing else for today… although if you want to learn anything new, I recommend what’s described in the link below. ​Even you can make money in Real Estate. ​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

During procurement, it turned out that one of the “independent” advisors hired to evaluate bids had close financial ties with a consortium member. Not a minor connection. A proper stake in the game. When journalists...
Yesterday I told you about a KPI regime that seemed a horror story. Today, I bring you another that kills. Kills contract, I mean. I often tell people that vertical PPPs are not my cup of tea. Hospitals… I run away. Too complicated. Too political. Too high stakes. Take the wave of hospital PPPs in the UK during the 2000s. On paper, they looked brilliant: new facilities, modern equipment, long-term maintenance secured. But still… the KPI regime was written by bureaucrats with too much coffee...
Some PPPs die before they start.Others collapse under the weight of construction. And then there are those that rot from within — strangled by their own KPI regime. Take the Peterborough Prison PPP in the UK.On paper, it was innovative: the first privately financed prison with a focus on rehabilitation. The government loved the concept. The innocent believers in human nature wet dreamt about it. The financiers lined up.The operator thought they could make it work… if not, they would still...
