More reproductions than a video of Trump

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. This can also help. ​Join my mentorship - Only $24.90 - LAUNCHING PRICE​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend. They will thank you enormously one day.

They didn’t show up. The financial model predicted tens of thousands of vehicles per day. Reality? Sometimes traffic was 70–80% lower than...
Still in the UK. Now, a hospital PPP. Large. Modern. Shiny. Hundreds of millions invested. Years of planning. Procurement. Financial close. Construction. Finally… The building was delivered. Or so everyone thought. The project was the Royal Liverpool University Hospital PFI project. New hospital. Supposed to open in 2017. There was only one small problem. The building could not be used. Fire safety defects. Structural issues. Incomplete works. Entire sections of the hospital had to be torn...
Everyone relaxes after the contract is signed. Lawyers celebrate. Sponsors shake hands. The press release goes out. “Landmark infrastructure project.” “World-class partnership.” “Long-term value for taxpayers.” Champagne. Photos. LinkedIn posts. Etc. In 2018 one of the largest PPP contractors in the UK, Carillion, collapsed overnight. Not struggling. Not restructuring. Collapsed. Gone. A tomar por cul0. The company was involved in dozens of PPP projects across the UK and beyond. Hospitals....
