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. ​

So the contract you sign is not the contract you live with. What does it mean? Simple… It means the real risk allocationis not the one approved by...

It is a much small bag. But my wife is happier. Christmas present. She needed a new bag. Found one she liked but it was much smaller than her previous bag. She was worried. But yesterday, she said. I'm very happy with this bag. You know why? Surprise me... (but I knew the answer). As it smaller, I put less things inside, and it's much lighter. Like tender documentation. I've been heavily criticised for being a fanatic of reducing as much as I can the "space" for bidders to explain their...
