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.

It’s a superpower. But people are not interested in the others’ point of view. Just in theirs. We are egocentric by nature. So listening it’s a superpower. I let the agent to do the talking. My side, just questions and nodding. Disclosures? None… well… there was some flooding… Price expectations? This property in 2021 would be selling by… Yes, but what are the owners expectations today. Well… in January, they received an offer by X and was rejected, now… I’m not sure what they owners will...
Arguments, unfortunately, don’t work. It’s proven. People don’t change their beliefs. At least, not with arguments. The reason arguments do not work is that most people hold their ideas and values without thinking about them. Think of politics. Think of clauses that you’ve seen in contracts. Think of people supporting their favourite teams. There is a strong emotional content in their beliefs. They really do not want to have to rework their habits of thinking, and when you challenge them,...
Impossible. Nobody can be that stupid. Well… welcome to another day. A contractor (let’s call him Mr. Optimism) decided to “save time” on a warehouse project. How? By installing the roof before securing the steel structure with the final bolts. “Don’t worry, jefe, it holds by itself.” Famous last words of every construction project ever. The weather app showed light breeze. New Zealand showed: “Hold my beer.” A 45-km/h gust arrived, grabbed the entire roof like a giant frisbee, and sent it...
