Innocent form of exaggeration
|
“The final key to the way I promote is bravado. I play to people’s fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That’s why a little hyperbole never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular. I call it truthful hyperbole. It’s an innocent form of exaggeration—and a very effective form of promotion” Donal Trump – The art of the deal ​ At the end of this week, I’ll double the price of the book below. There is no bravado. No exaggeration. Those are my real numbers. If you don’t get any idea after reading it, you’ll have to seek professional help… well… maybe this is the little hyperbole that you needed, right? Have a great Monday! ​

Hesitant. With lots of fears and doubts… Or maybe not that much. On reflection, I have my rules. Minimum discount on...
“We want a PPP… but we don’t want to take any risk.” That scream comes from the public and private sectors alike… And every time I hear that, I already see the coffin. Today’s story is not about a PPP that went wrong. It’s about a PPP that never even made it to the starting line because the government tried to dump so much unmanageable risk on the private sector that the private sector simply said: “Good luck, amigos.” And walked away. Welcome to the Nairobi–Thika Highway PPP attempt (early...
I have a few face-to-face mentees and they have 3 types of problems: You say you became an entrepreneur to be free… but you work more hours than ever.You say you want to help… but you can barely help yourself.You say you’re chasing freedom… but you’ve built your own cage. I’m sure it also sounds familiar to you.And I also know it’s not your fault. It’s the fault of all the bullsh*t promises they sold you:That entrepreneurship would make you free.That you just need more followers.That what...
