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, you move backwords until now. ​ This works with careers, projects and businesses. ​ Once that you do the exercise, everything gets clearer. ​ This is the philosophy around this course below.

So they decided to stop, review, learn and repeat. They started to ask the market about what was wrong with the last projects. They noted. And decided...
You know that moment when a government says: “We’re launching a massive PPP program.” Or… “We are going to partner with the private sector to build roads”! Everyone claps like seals because… wow… private money, shiny highways, “international best practice,”. Re-election secured. Mexico did that in the early 90s. Fifty-two highway concessions. I repeat. 52 PPP fever everywhere. The “future” of infrastructure. And we’ll build Speedy Gonzales speed. Spoiler: It didn’t end well. Actually, it...
Last week I lost a dream villa in Auckland. In the most expensive neighbour in the country. Full renovation to be made to earn around 500k$ with the trade… although this one was for me. Amazing views of the sea and the Auckland Bridge… from the kitchen and dining area. Walking distance to downtown. I just needed to counter offer around 10-15k$ more and I got it. But I was weak. Hesitant. With lots of fears and doubts… Or maybe not that much. On reflection, I have my rules. Minimum discount on...
