“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.

Southeast Asia. Early 2020s. You’re advising on a major transport PPP. Billions on the line. A metro line so politically visible that even the Prime Minister’s dog has an opinion on it. Your consortium is ready. Equity committed. Contractors lined up. Designers caffeinated beyond medical guidelines. The agency launches the RFQ. Everyone smiles. “Finally, a flagship project done properly.” (What a beautiful illusion.) Then… the unexpected happens. A new Minister arrives. (You can already feel...
My wife has sentenced. My little son and I are condemned to not wearing anything white clothes in the next 10 to 15 years. No matter what you do, no matter how much precaution you have, it all ends the same. Wine, oil, or tomato come to the party. And that polo or shirt ended like a Kleenex. One use only. No matter what you do, it’s time you look for a second use or prepare to send it to a charity. One use only, as I said. Like great RFPs. Millions spent. Dozens of consultants mobilized....
Just in a rush as I’m taking a plane. You’ve been reading my emails for weeks. Learning, nodding, agreeing… But nothing changes just by knowing. You can blame the market. You can blame your company. You can blame your boss or the government or the crisis. Or you can accept a fact: Winners move when others freeze. You want better projects? Better money? Recognition? A pat in the back? Then you must become the person who gets those things. You know what I’m offering. Not soft coaching, but...
