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. ​

While everyone else is waiting until after the holidays to start, he already knows exactly what he is...
Commandment #1 — Until it is signed, nothing is approved. Forget the workshops, the smiles, the “green light,” the political announcement, the press release. If the contract isn’t signed, nothing is real. Assume this, or prepare for endless backtracking and surprises. Commandment #2 — If you didn’t get the OK from the affected stakeholders, don’t do it. Treasury, the local council, procurement, operations, the unions, regulators, local communities, the CFO… Miss one and you’ll pay for it...
I tried to move the suitcase. And I couldn’t believe the weight. “But… what have you put inside, just for a few days?” “Almost nothing, it’s half-empty” I wondered what the weight would be for my wife if the suitcase was half-full. We live in a world of abundance. But this creates a big issue in many people. It’s difficult to decide. To choose. Pick up something and disregard the rest. I call it the Tinder syndrome. Lots of dates, but zero commitment… as you feel that you’re missing out if...
