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. ​

Yesterday I saw an orange New Beetle. I love cars. And this “orange” that seemed so eccentric and powerful reminded me a picture I saw in LinkedIn. The picture compares two parking lots. One in the 70s and another one today. In the 70s, you had a rainbow of colours. Green, blue, red, yellow, orange… Different tones… If you go today to a parking lot, you’ll see black, white, a few grey and fewer red and blue. We are in a world where it’s better not to grab attention. To go with the flow....
He was betrayed by his wife. Stop taking pills. Finishing studies. Recently married. Moved to a new town. Bought a house. In debt, for furniture and all the set up of a new life together. I’m pregnant. OK… Twins. Tough 7-8 months. Lots of medical issues. Risk. Stress. Danger. Anger and fear. All went well at the end. But things could not go that well any longer. Now he is a single dad. Moved away. Reorganized his life in a new country. From scratch. With two wonderful 14 years-old boys. When...
