I scored you many goals
|
First week of “relax” and meetings to celebrate my well-deserved holidays. Having been for so long on the infrastructure world, logically I’ve been catching up and meeting people from banks, private equity firms and infrastructure investors, in general. In a coffee with investors talking about how I could help them in the future, I was asked something like… why would I be a good advisor for them. I was thinking that we were practising the art of conversation and coffee tasting and this caught me totally out of guard. “Because I scored you many goals” – without thinking. Not the best answer, I’m afraid, but they loved it, and we could continue our coffee. And you know that I love coffee… Well… I correct. You know that I love good coffee… And why did they like my answer? Well… This is a constant in business. If you wonder, why the FBI uses hackers to protect their IT system or help them to “spy” on others’ computers… well… I’m sure you can guess. The best security guys can perfectly be former robbers. So, I guess that someone wanting to buy infrastructure, or any other thing would love to have a seller from the other site of the table advising them. I know where all the tricks and flaws could be in an asset. I’ve delivered many. It’s like buying a house… you would love to have a former real estate agent with you. Don’t you? If so, and you want to learn a few tricks about infrastructure, you need to take a look to this.

More than you think. And it’s everywhere. Some people call it laziness. Even ignorance. Or worse… unawareness… Or insufficient understanding. The fact is that my team called the guys. The water guys. Aqualia in Spain. Once. Twice. Finally, they came. They installed the new device to measure water consumption. We wanted to change the contract, using the new device that comes with lower fees (it was a development site). No answer. Call. No answer. Call. They answered. The device is not correct....
This is what a personal training used to position, tired of comparing and demonstrating how good she is. Not my method is better. Not I’m going to make you lose fat. Nope. Just the reality of what this is about. Have more s€x. That’s it. Being healthier or looking good are just collateral damages. Life is easier with an Ex-CEO on your ear. It’s about progress, personal growth… And of course. Valid for s€x too. What’s collateral damage? I leave that to you. Life is easier with an Ex-CEO on...
Once that you have decided what you want in life, it’s time for the next step. No matter whether you want… Change career path. Get into the PPP line. Get into business. Expand your business. Not matter what’s your decision. There is a common next step. Expand your network. i.e. get connected to the right people. As Grant Cardone said… “I don’t go to ‘work’.
