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?

Gillette had taken razor technology to the point of absurdity. Five blades. Lubricating strips. Precision trimmers. Suspension technology. Even quantum anti-ageing effect on your skin. The biggest stars in sport and Hollywood to advertise them. And, of course, charged accordingly. Michael Dubin, today’s story hero, was tired of the whole thing. Tired of paying ridiculous prices for razor cartridges. Tired of having to ask a supermarket employee to unlock a glass cabinet every time he needed...
You arrive on Monday. You open your inbox. There are 63 unread emails. Three say “urgent.” Two contain decisions that should have been made six weeks ago. The contractor is waiting for an instruction. The public agency is waiting for more information… delaying an approval that you desperately need. The lenders are waiting for extra information to give you the blessing for a zero-cost unsubstantial change. And your team is waiting for you. You open the programme. The completion date has not...
In 1944, the predecessor of the CIA published a manual on sabotage in order to destroy enemy regimes. Not bombs. Not weapons. Meetings. Yes… meetings. The Simple Sabotage Field Manual, which was the name of the document, explained how ordinary people could quietly damage enemy regimes, organisations and whole countries from within. The instructions included: Cause delays. Insist on strict compliance with every procedure. Refer decisions to committees. Demand additional reviews and approvals....
