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. PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

It’s about progress, personal growth… And of course. Valid for s€x too. What’s collateral damage? I leave that to you. Life is easier with an Ex-CEO on...
Once that you have decided what you want in life, it’s time for the next step. No matter whether you want… Change career path. Get into the PPP line. Get into business. Expand your business. Not matter what’s your decision. There is a common next step. Expand your network. i.e. get connected to the right people. As Grant Cardone said… “I don’t go to ‘work’. I go to my netWORK to increase my Net Worth.” You need to improve your network to increase your Net Worth. It’s not just about the...
Complexity is the enemy of clarity. And without clarity, you're invisible. I’ve been in meetings where technical guys discuss and discuss. Argue and argue. About the gender of the angels. For hours. For meetings. For months. Ego against ego. And you still miss the point. The clarity, the specificity of the problem. And they go invisible. For bosses and leaders alike. If you are able to explain complex things in a simple way, as if the person you talk to was 5 years-old… People will listen....
