People drawn in a glass of water. They lack perspective. Look. You have all you need. I repeat. You have all you need to achieve your potential. And let me put you an example. Probably you know her. Her name is Emma Kok. Look for her on the internet. She became famous when she was 15 years old or so. She signs like the angels. If you look for her interpretation of the song “Voilà ”, you’ll see that it has more reproductions that any crap issued by Donald and Elon together, by far. Unfortunately, she suffers from gastroparesis, an illness that forces her to be connected to two feeding pumps for 22 hours a day in order to digest. If one day you feel like you can't handle something, watch this angel singing 'Voilà . Now. You’re a privileged. You have a mobile phone or a laptop, and likely both. Probably two eyes. Probably two hands, two arms and two legs. Probably, one head, and one brain. And now, you have the conscience of knowing that having all those things is all you need. Let’s go there, and get it.

A client once asked me: What does good governance actually look like? I did not take long to draft a response. It’s something asked many times… Especially, when things start to get wrong. Well, it starts with experienced people. Period. And… People who bring different perspectives. People capable of overseeing an executive team without trying to become the executive team. Look. Governance is not day-to-day management. It is challenge. Support. Direction. And intervention when required....
Those who know me well know that I’m not a football fan. Or soccer. Whatever you prefer. But I watched the last ten minutes of Spain’s match—my only ten minutes of the World Cup… yes, I know—and I was amazed. And happy, by the way. Beating Argentina is always fun.
