The end in your mind
|
Holidays in Spain are great. Workout, breakfast, work, lunch, work, diner, work. Making progress. Selling one project. Finishing another. Getting finance for another one. Life is good. Work is good. Because of focus and passion. When you get clarify about what you want to achieve… things start to flow. ​ I see many people I mentor with lack of clarity. They jump from one shiny object to the next. From one project to the next. From one position to the next. From one company to the next. Never satisfied. Never fulfilled. ​ Change for the sake of change will just give you momentary relief. A few months, maybe a couple of years. ​ I recommend starting everything with the end in your mind.

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,...
