Something to do not tomorrow, but today

“When I have money” is the biggest lie that I hear. “When I have money” is the biggest lie you tell yourself. “When I have money” is the self-impose mantra to keep you poor. ​ You don’t need money to start investing or start a business. You know that. Don’t try to convince you otherwise. Just google “how to” and you’ll get a few ideas. They many not work for you, or this is what you think, that there is for sure something that you can figure out… if you want to, of course. ​ This way of creating a self-defeating mindset is not unique to investment or money. I hear it in many forms. “When I have more experience”. “When the new position comes up, I’ll step up” “When I finish this project” “When I demonstrate to my boss that…” “When the interest rates are down…” “When the market is more stable” “When the market goes down” “When I finish this business book” “When I finish this course” “When I finish my MBA” Etc. Or my favourite: “When I’m ready” ​ All excuses for inaction. ​ You and your children’s future will be determined by choices you make today, not tomorrow. Think of what you could do not today, but now in improve your income, your stills, your pension fund… whatever it’s a true priority for yourself, and just do it. ​ I can propose you this today. ​Join my mentorship - Only $24.90 - LAUNCHING PRICE​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

Most governments treat their main airport like a toy.A prestige project.A political trophy.A place to cut ribbons and hire cousins. The perfect picture for LinkedIn. Egos don't get a better chance to shine. Bogotá did that for years.And the result was the "before" picture. Congested terminal.Old infrastructure.Chaos on peak days.And zero money to fix it properly. Then in 2007 they did something different.They gave El Dorado to people who actually had skin in the game... Crazy! A...
Most PPP programs don’t get into trouble because of corruption.Or bad engineers.Or lazy civil servants. Or big-mouthful politicians. They fail because people think risk is a philosophy. Not a number. And this has been a constant in my last PPP project in NZ. Everyone talked about risk. This is too risky, they said... but without numbers. You see... we ended with the highway operator not changing barriers because it was too risky... Anyway... another country that learnt about risk the hard way...
Just in case you did not notice. There are just a few weeks left in 2025. What have you done to hit your goals this year? Better question: what are you doing today to finish strong? Most people go hard on goal-setting in January. They feel motivated for a few weeks, then watch themselves and their team drown in operations for the rest of the year. By March, those goals are buried. And this repeats over and over. You probably set ambitious yearly plans that died in Google Drive. By year-end,...
