Phones, tablets, robots… Every skill you have today and that you believe is marketable won't be in a few short years. These will be some skills though that will remain in extreme demand for a decade or so. AI engineers. Why? Because somebody needs to deploy the wonderful alien technology we've discovered - to increase automation of every company and organization. Some will become millionaires, and billionaires. Most will be employees. I saw the trend 25 years ago with communications. Great jobs, great opportunities to create your companies… Now, telecom engineers are pure commodity. This cycle happens all the time. This is why getting just a new diploma, a new degree, a new certificate, won’t save you. It’s not a waste of time or money, no. I’m not saying that. It’s always good to learn new things. It is just that despite those new learnings and trends, there is one, and one only that keeps you going on. Not for the next decade, but many more year. Your personal growth. Control on your career, on your business, on your money. It took me a long, long time to realize that it’s not knowledge, but communication. It’s not studying, but action. It’s not perfectionism, but learning from mistakes. It’s not a pay check, but a stream of revenues that will keep you in the right track when retirement time arrives. Last day at this price.

This weekend, I went to a mall. At a weird hour. But this is what you need to do to keep the kids busy. Food court. People wearing trousers two sizes bigger than necessary… Not even Lululemon, by the way. Queueing for 15 minutes at McDonald’s. The intense smell of fries and KFC… I got it very quickly. I don’t belong here. I don’t want to be here. When was the last time you felt that way? Knowing you could be somewhere else, but instead you had just walked into another room smelling of...
Politics is a pain in the a$$. But you can hardly avoid it. It is hard to be brave all the time. It is hard to tell every person throwing bullsh*t into the room that they are wrong. It is also tiring. And sometimes, it can backfire. Badly. It can put you in a difficult position. And it can put the people behind you in a difficult position too. So yes. Sometimes, at high tables, you need to swallow. You need to let something pass… Let them, as Mel Robbins would say. You need to smile when you...
A few days ago, Monge Malo, the best sales trainer in Spanish language talked about The Abilene Parados. The Abilene Paradox happens when a group of people does something nobody actually wants to do because everyone assumes the others want it. Like Christmas dinners. Or most corporate meetings. Twelve adults in a room. Nobody agrees. Nobody believes the plan. Nobody thinks the process makes sense. But everyone nods. The junior person thinks the senior people know better. The senior person...
