Only today: how to become a professional
|
I read a few days ago that Robert Kiyosaki once said: Professionals have coaches. Amateurs do not. I didn’t know about this, but it cannot be closer to the truth. Successful people look for mentors and coaches. No matter if you are a business owner or someone trying to go up through the corporate ladder. Think of the most successful people you can imagine and they always try to improve themselves with the help of people that were a few steps ahead. If you don’t do it, don’t complain. You’re just being lazy. You’re playing in this world to be an amateur. ​ I won’t tell you how much I spend in training, coaches and mentors per year, but next time that you envy someone because he is going faster than you, think of whether that person is doing something different to you. ​ Only today I offer 3 seats on this. ​

Separatism or globalism. Fake news; the killers from one side or the torturers from the other, from this war or the other one… And football, rugby, the Black Friday and a...
Most people think Africa is where PPPs go to die. They’re wrong. It’s where PPPs go to prove whether a government is serious. Senegal was. Early 2000s. Dakar traffic was a nightmare. Congestion so bad the city was losing productivity every hour. Everyone talked about “solutions”. Nobody wanted to pay. Then the government did something unusual for the region: They decided to treat risk like adults. Clear demand analysis. Transparent procurement. A concession contract with actual teeth. And a...
Mega-projects don’t just overrun. They overrun lives. Ask South Africa. Medupi and Kusile were supposed to be the big solution. Two giant coal plants. Massive capex. Enough power to stop load-shedding and unlock growth. On paper? Glorious. In reality? A masterclass in how to blow up trust. Design issues. Rework. Delays measured in years, not months. Costs ballooning into the tens of billions of rand. Every extra year of delay? More load-shedding. More diesel. More businesses dying quietly....
