People for your journey
|
I’ve met a few these last weeks… so I can deduct that the world is full of who dream of quitting their job and become entrepreneurs, running their own business, running investments, living somewhere else or taking more control of their lives. The problem is that their dream is just a dream. It’s a question of priorities. A question of courage. I was not very courageous, I must confess. This is why I decided to act with the two feet on the ground. All started with side businesses. All failed. Then one real estate business… I failed, and lost lots of money. But I learned a lot. I didn’t give up. I kept trying and learning. Then, a second real estate business. It started well… then problems, more problems… But I keep learning and trying. Then, a consultancy business… Then, a newsletter. Then, coaching business… And so on. Learning. Adjusting. Reviewing. Adjusting. Doubling down in what it works. Consistently. In personal growth and, even business, you only lose when you give up. When you see your setbacks as learning experiences, you live more relaxed, and you sleep better despite the complexities and anxieties… The journey is what is important, not the destination. This is why, I keep going. Mentors and coaches are an important part of that journey. Do it alone because you know it all… won’t get you into your full potential. I have a proposal for you today. You can get it below.

“Learn the rules like a pro… so you can break them like an artist.” — Pablo Picasso I used to repeat this to my teams when the time came… But if you asked them what Vicente would do in almost any situation, the answer was simple: “Follow the contract.” Always. Because most people don’t even understand the rules they’re trying to “bend”. They jump to shortcuts. They improvise. They create risk. That’s not creativity. That’s incompetence. First, you master the contract. You know every clause....
Research shows that doctors with 20 years of experience… Are often less skilled than when they first left medical school. Read that again. Less skilled. Let that sink in. These doctors didn’t become worse overnight. They just stopped evolving. They got trapped in routines. In habits. In outdated ways of thinking. So instead of 20 years of experience… They have 1 year of experience repeated 20 times. Shocking? Really? Because, it shouldn’t be. This is the norm. Think of... Engineering....
Yesterday, a student told me:“ You’re selling this for peanuts.” He’s right. I know it. But when something is working… when things are flowing… You don’t touch it. At least, that’s what they say. But here’s the problem: Underpricing is not generosity. It’s positioning. And I’m done positioning this as cheap. So yes…I’m breaking the rule. I’m increasing the price of everything in the academy. All of it. Today, you can still get in at the current price. Tomorrow? You’ll pay double. For example,...
