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.

You’re the preferred bidder. You’ve survived the RFQ bloodbath. You’ve outlasted two global consortia. You’ve negotiated 1,200 comments on the Project Agreement. You’re tired. But you’re smiling. Because you’re “there”. And your bonus, and your holidays to Fiji, “almost there”. Or so you think. In 2014, the East West Link PPP in Melbourne had a preferred bidder. Contracts were executed. Advisors were celebrating. Many, already paid. Then elections happened. Ahhh… the famous political risk of...

Yesterday I was talking about clarity.Or better said, about simplicity.If you’re not capable of putting it clearly, you don’t have the "pajorera" (faintest damn) idea what you’re talking about. Simplifying is a superpower. How many times have I seen the best technicians we could find for a task make a presentation to a Board of Directors.Charts.Twisted words beyond belief.More jargon… as if it were a competition to see who can pee the furthest.In the end…The sound of crickets. Trying to...

Big table. Bigger egos. Billion-dollar numbers floating around like confetti. We are in the middle of a key meeting of a bid for a PPP project. Slide on the screen. The Bid Director clears his throat. “And now, I’ll pass it to – let’s say - Carlos, who will walk us through the interface risk allocation model.” Silence. People start looking to each other. More looking. Some rumours. Someone nervously laughed… Carlos is not in the room. Not in the building. Not in the country. Where the hell is...
