The most efficient predator is not what you think
|
Christmas is a fantastic moment of the year to check how the world work. Many people have no idea of what your hard-earned dollars that move the world work. Many people still ask me whether to invest as a company or as individual. Look. One of the biggest financial predators of our money is the government… Taxes. You want the new Mac. Retail cost 2.300$. Imagine that you are lucky and make 10.000$ a month and you want to buy that Mac. The government eats around 40% in income tax. You got 6.000$ to buy that Mac. You buy it. You end your month with 3.700$. ​ Now, you have your real estate property (or properties) under a company. You make 10.000$ in income. You buy your Mac because you will end up using it for your business at 2.000$ as you deduct 300$ in GST. Then, one day (not that month) you pay the taxes, at 25%. Your balance for that month will be 6.000$... when the time to pay the tax arrives. ​ This is not magic, nor nothing illegal. You’ll need to work with your advisor, but that’s the power of financial intelligence. ​ See that difference multiplied month after month for 40 years of work. ​ Then, you wonder… ​ And this is the same in the US, Canada, UK, Spain, Australia, New Zealand or wherever you are. With exceptions, nuances, limitations, etc. ​ This is the power of knowledge… plus action. If no action, it does not matter how much knowledge. This is where a coach and mentor can help you.

Doing things different to the rest of people around you will send you to different places. I’m not saying Cook Island, Vanuatu, Fiji… some of my last trips, but “other places”. You’ll get sued. You’ll sue someone. You’ll get robbed. You’ll make amazing friends. You’ll meet incredible people and partners. You’ll grow… faster than “the rest”. You’ll become smarter, calmer, more focused… faster than the rest, by the way. Be around people that you admire will push you closer to that people…...
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...
Multitasking kills more dreams than a nearby disco with reggaeton. Focus is everything. This is why there are so many people, companies and politicians competing for yours. Distracting you. Keeping you down… unfocused. News, sales, offers, “favours”. They arrive from everywhere with the only objective of grabbing your attention. When you are managing a project, for example, having many open fronts is a terrible distraction. You end unable to differentiate the urgent from the important, the...
