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?

I’ve been closing some insurance policies these days. For myself. Health, life, mortgage, etc. You don’t appreciate enough a good broker until you get one. If you’re serious about investing, this is your second more important broker after your mortgage broker. But I don’t want to talk to you about personal insurance. But PPP insurance. It’s probably one of those fields, most people mess up. Clients. Banks. SPVs… All parties alike. You have insurance to cover accidents on site causing...
I’m doing quite a lot of work these days with market lead proposals. I mean, proposals coming directly from the market and made to the government of New Zealand. I love the ideas put forward by proponent. Their enthusiasm. And commitment. Most of them fail in the “exclusivity” criteria. Why you are so good that the government absolutely needs to negotiate with you directly without going to the market. It’s fascinating. That’s a high bar, but some people get through it. IP, exclusive rights to...
Time for a ridiculous story from the world of infrastructure contracts. You know, those multi-billion-dollar deals where one tiny typo can turn into a legendary office joke. Well… here you are one. Picture this. Somewhere in Europe. A massive bridge project. The contract is huge, hundreds of pages of legal and technical jargon. In the middle of all that, there was supposed to be a clause that said the contractor had to provide a "large-tonnage crane." Don’t ask why. Maybe some stupid Spanish...
