The reason why you need to move your culo

Attitude is everything. Stay around with people depressed that criticizes all is happening around (Trump, tariffs, war, Putin, oil, bitcoin), and you’ll be depressed too. Optimism is a powerful weapon. I’d say that stay away of people that don’t share optimism and see opportunities everywhere. Instead of “that won’t work”, think of and stay around with people with a “how do I apply that” mindset. The key to success is knowing how to stay motivated in the face of barriers, stops, and things not going quite the way you’d hoped or planned. And for that, you need attitude. There is a secret though. How to keep motivated. And it’s simpler than you think. The number one way for me to stay motivated is to stay busy moving quickly from one activity to the next without a lot of time in between. That’s it. Then, you’ll need to stay busy doing the right things, those that truly produces results, those that you “don’t feel like” to do… those ones, precisely, are the ones that you need to do inmediately. Calling a client. Going to a fair and meet more people. Visiting 100 apartments. Sending 25 bids… The reality is if you are moving fast enough, it won’t matter because you are going to the next activity. My motivation, and yours, comes from my attention on the future, not from something done in the past. Stay motivated. Stay aware. Stay busy doing the right things. Grow. Move your culo and get things done. Do you want to learn about something new?

Many people live in fear. And that’s a terrible place to be. They don’t raise their hand. They don’t do a stand. They don’t publish in social media… Because of fear. And please, let me know that if you’re one of those… your worries are not justified. It is physically and neurologically impossible for you to control what someone else thinks. I guess that you knew that, right? Well.. The average human being has about 70,000 thoughts a day. 70k… yes. Most of which are random and cannot be...
Work is the #1 cause of life stress for most people. Probably, this is not a surprise to you. What that research shows though is that your manager has as much impact on your mental health as your spouse. Burnout is real. Working hard and not being recognized, promoted or getting a pat on the back from time to time have consequences. There are ways to work around this, of course. You can change jobs. You can try to have “a conversation” with your manager. You can meditate. You can buy one of...
What a lot of risk? I recently saw people complaining about the “high IRRs” that some PPP developers were making. High IRRs. Greedy developers. Private sector making too much money. The usual music. Well… Look at the number of projects that have gone under. Especially those with demand risk. Real demand risk. Not “let’s pretend this is risky in a spreadsheet” risk. Actual traffic risk. Actual revenue risk. Actual “if people don’t show up, you don’t get paid” risk. And then tell me that 15% or...
