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. ​ ​Mentorship Package - $899​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend. They will thank you enormously one day.

And I loved what he said about obsession. Anyone that has achieved a decent level of success in life has some sort of obsession. You can think of...
One of the “interesting” things about having sat at all four corners of the table, and having done so in several countries, is that you start comparing. Yes, I know. It’s a Spanish sickness. We like criticising more than we like evading taxes… or voting for politicians who do. I can’t escape my genes, no matter how a Kiwi I've become. You compare. And sooner or later, you reach a painful conclusion. Especially now that I live in the paradise of the South Pacific. Nations led by builders build...
Suggesting beats showing. Always. Just see what happens to women that show too much. They attract the wrong type of men… or probably not. They just attract all men… and then, it’s more complicated to do a good selection. The chances of getting it wrong increase. But if they just suggest, they tend to attract a more sophisticated level of men. Less brutal, savage, and basic. Then, the chances of getting the wrong type of men decrease. And remember, women risked their lives having s€x not long...
