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.

I come from Spain and one of my first babies were the R5 and R3 radial roads, at the time ACS’s concessions. And...
Recently, I assisted with horror to a meeting where I was told that the respondents of an RFP had no limit of pages in their offers. They asked my opinion. My answer was graphic. If I was the bid manager and I had a gun, I would use it. No limits. OMG. The last shoes that you want to wear are those of the bid managers in the RFP. Imagine yourself with that burden. No limits. And the risk of these guys awarding a several billions dollars contract by the weight of the paper brought in the...
The worst thing that can happen to a man, woman or chair is becoming civilized.Because then spending time in an office meeting people they don’t like and doing things that they hate under halogen lights feels acceptable.And using a ThinkPad with Windows. And preparing a PowerPoint. And eating the daily lunch special.And being afraid to ask for a raise. And when you point it out to him (to her, to it, to them) he tells you that “it is what it is,” that “what can you do,” that “life is like...
