The reason you need a team
|
I have two cats. And I keep a phone to call a vet in case of emergency. Many people do this too. ​ I have the phone of an electrician, a plumber, a dentist, a doctor… to call in case of emergency. Many people do this too. ​ I have the phone of the insurance and the AA for car assistance with me. Many people do this too. ​ I have the phone of a lawyer to call in case of emergency. Some people do this too. ​ I have the phone of someone to call in case of emergency for investments and financial doubts or issues. Few people have this. ​ Why? Don’t tell me that money is not important. Or you don’t care. Just stop working and see what happens… ​ Having mentors and advisors, a list of trusted and knowledgeable contacts, standing by is what makes the difference between successful people and people that struggle or make little or no progress. ​ Or do you think that Elon knows about everything? Or Bezitos? Or Gates? Or… whatever. ​ People trying to do things by themselves don’t reach very far. People teaming with knowledgeable people do. ​ “Ahà lo dejo” or “I leave it there”. If you want me as part of your team, book me below.

I sent an email. What’s going on? I’m disappointed. What I can do to help. In 48 hours or less, the calendar in the slagging apartment is full. No response, just facts. Like magic… back on track. This situation is not unusual. In my 20 years managing projects and people, I’ve seen this almost every day....
Codie Sanchez once explained that “If you want to know where future fortunes will be made, don’t look at markets; look at rooms” And she continued: “Wealth follows proximity. The closer you are to capital, information, and ambition, the higher your expected return. If compounding is the eighth wonder of the world, proximity is the ninth.” This is probably the best piece of advice I have received in the last 12 months. Economists call it agglomeration, the phenomenon where productivity and...
A couple of weeks ago, someone that I know commented this: “Vicente, I’m sick to death of my job… every Monday I feel like jumping out the window. And what it’s worse… now they want to reduce staff and I don’t know what to do” She wasn’t exaggerating. And from what I understood, it wasn’t the first time she’d said — or thought — something like that. And surely not the last. Built-up exhaustion. Unpaid overtime. A boss who confuses “leading” with being a pain in the ass. And a salary that...
