People hate this... but it's so necessary


When you have something of great value to offer the world, don't beat around the bush or use metaphors.

Offer it plainly, without filters.

Straightforward and unapologetic.

You have great ideas. Tell everyone.

You are doing a great job. Tell everyone, especially to your boss. Don’t wait for the annual review… too many things will happen from today until the next raise is decided.

You have a great product. Tell everyone.

This is exactly how I operate when a company asks me for an audit or consultancy, when someone asks me for mentorship.

I tell it like it is, which usually doesn’t match what they want to hear.

I say it with fewer words and less formality than they’d like.

I reduce their business to a single sentence and their problem to a couple of words.

And sometimes it stings.

But it always heals.

And fast.

​

I have a mentorship package. Some have asked for it.

You can buy it as a gift for you, your loved one, your brother, your company, or your dog.

Those sentences never come from people who have all their needs and desires met. No. You won’t hear that from Elon Musk or Warren Buffet. Not way. Those sentences come from people who check supermarket receipts, scrutinize bills, and choose dishes at restaurants based on price. Those sentences don’t come from people who...

Live poor, die rich. This is the mindset that many people have these days “in order to be rich” or get financial freedom. You know the old piece of advice: study hard, get good grades, a good job, live below your means, save and retire. Terrible advice in these days where governments keep printing fake money, inflation is “moderated” by printing a lot or printing less, and the gap between the producers and the consumers is bigger by the day. I don’t know what plans you have for next year. I...

We learn to compete early in life. We compete in school for grades. We compete in sports. We compete for attention. We compete for the person we love. We compete for jobs. We compete promotions. We compete for bonuses. We compete for recognition. And much more. Competition is survival. Learning a few tricks means the difference between depending on the government at retirement and retiring earlier. All start by mindset and investing properly. Knowing a few rules. Knowing the there is no free...
