In case your parents decided to torture you


Look at what I learned today from the great Isra Bravo.

Imagine you are born today.

Yes… today.

Imagine now that your parents want to torture you.

And they decide to make you watch all the videos uploaded to YouTube today. Just the day of your birth…

I repeat.

​
Every single video uploaded to YouTube.
And only the videos from that day.
Exclusively those.

Not a single more.

Well…

Do you know when you would finish watching them?

At 82 years old.

That being said, do you still think that bulk information is worth anything today?

​
Do you think watching YouTube videos or reading random posts on Instagram will lead to success in business, life, or personal growth?

Better get comfortable—because it’s going to take a while.

What’s truly valuable comes down to two things:

  1. Information that gives you deep knowledge.
  2. Knowing how to use it.

If they are not your clients or employees or colleagues now, they will be very soon. What’s this telling you? Simple. Worry less about technology and much more about experience and understanding. Most people out there are obsessed with how to implement AI, but are incapable of empathizing with their neighbor’s human pain or joy. Don’t stress about...

I’ve never seen anybody truly making anything great just by waiting. Just by not taking action. Just by letting train after train leave the station. Tomorrow. When I finish the next free-course. Or the next certification. Or when I come back from holidays. Or when I have time “in the summer”. Or when I read “that” book. Or else. Pray and wait is a strategy for failure. Or mediocracy. Problems don’t solve magically themselves. Wishes never come true unless you move your a$$. This is true for...

I told you about Horward before. 1982. New York. A young guy joined a company. Not as CEO. Not as strategist. Not as “Head of Vision.” Director of Retail Operations. Exciting, right? Mid-level. Replaceable. Just another guy executing someone else’s plan. The company was called: Starbucks The guy was: Howard Schultz At that time, Starbucks didn’t even sell the “Starbucks experience.” They sold beans. Machines. Coffee equipment. No romance. No Italian fantasy. No global empire. Just beans. But...
