My last day
|
Today is my last day at NX2. Last day. 6 years as a CEO. ​ Why leaving? I needed a change. Yes, just like that. Bye, bye, big salary, big bonuses, big responsibilities working for others. Bye, bye… last day. ​ I could have added a speech about my great team, our great job, our achievements, etc… but I let those things for the people that love to talk about the weather. ​ There is a perfect time to move on, and mine was well overdue. Now, no plans. No commitments. No work. No rush. Just freedom, and many ideas in my head. Calm, and satisfaction. Even some dreams. ​ I have been building during years my financial freedom and now it’s time to taste it as good coffee. Time with my child. Time to do a few things at home. Time to walk in the park under the sun. Time to practice some kung-fu… mental and physical. ​ Look, when coffee is roasted it creates many chemical reactions. One of those reactions builds-up carbon dioxide. Good coffee comes in packages with one-way valves. They allow carbon-dioxide to escape without allowing oxygen into the package. Coffee reaches its peak in flavour from around 12-15 days after the roast date. Then, flavour goes down and coffee ages with exposure to oxygen. ​ I had the time for my chemical reactions. I matured my ideas, my experience, my businesses, and now, I feel it’s my time to build something great and big. ​ If interested, you can register your interest here. The idea is passing you my knowledge as manager, CEO and investor through small, easy, digestible lesson learned. ​I'm interested - I click here. ​ ​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

Most construction disasters happen on Mondays. Some on Fridays. But only the truly legendary ones wait for Christmas Day. New York City, 2007. Downtown Manhattan. A 40-storey office tower under construction. Skeleton up, façade almost done, 70% completed. The kind of project where everyone, owner, contractor, union, inspectors, just wants to go home and eat turkey. On the morning of December 25th, a security guard on site hears something strange: “Clank… clank… clank…” He thinks it’s a rat. A...

Great power comes with greater responsibilities. When I come to Spain and I see the infrastructure of a relatively medium to high income country has and how this infrastructure has changed the lives of millions of people, you feel the weight on your shoulders. If you work in infrastructure, you are in a sector that is essential. I’m watching the AI revolution carefully. But the way a new road changes the lives of thousands of people with or without mobile phones in an instant is still too...
