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.

Have a great Monday!

Maybe you love paying for the “experience.” The...
“Learn the rules like a pro… so you can break them like an artist.” — Pablo Picasso I used to repeat this to my teams when the time came… But if you asked them what Vicente would do in almost any situation, the answer was simple: “Follow the contract.” Always. Because most people don’t even understand the rules they’re trying to “bend”. They jump to shortcuts. They improvise. They create risk. That’s not creativity. That’s incompetence. First, you master the contract. You know every clause....
Research shows that doctors with 20 years of experience… Are often less skilled than when they first left medical school. Read that again. Less skilled. Let that sink in. These doctors didn’t become worse overnight. They just stopped evolving. They got trapped in routines. In habits. In outdated ways of thinking. So instead of 20 years of experience… They have 1 year of experience repeated 20 times. Shocking? Really? Because, it shouldn’t be. This is the norm. Think of... Engineering....
