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.

The Bid Director clears his throat. “And now, I’ll pass it to – let’s say - Carlos, who will walk us through the interface risk allocation model.” Silence. People start looking to each other. More looking. Some rumours. Someone nervously laughed… Carlos is not in the room. Not in the building. Not in the country. Where the hell is...
These days I’ve been in an amazing table. Not business guys this time, but that’s not important. The best lawyers. The best technical guys. The best commercial people in the country. Being there simply blows your mind. Their work ethics. Their commitment. Their sharp insights. I should be paying for being there… Being in those tables. With excellent people. In the decision-making tables. It’s a game changer for any professional. If you go with an open mind, What you learn. What you absorb....
Ice cream. Free ice cream. This Friday was a hot, sunny day, and they guys could have not chosen a better moment. Lunch time in the business area of the city. Opening day. New shop. Very well known and delicious ice creams. I could not believe my eyes. The queue went over the corner. Expected waiting time: between 30 and 45 min. The square was full of people. No doubt, brilliant marketing campaign. If you already discover the trick around Santa and the Three Wise Men, you probably know that...
