They call me Bison
|
My brother and my sister call me: Bison. I like to believe that it’s not because of the Russian Street Fighter character, but the animal. ​ Bison are the only animals that walk toward storms instead of fleeing from them. ​ In the midst of a storm, when everything seems chaotic, bison make a surprising decision: they move directly toward it. They don’t do this out of recklessness. No. They instinctively know that by walking into the storm, they’ll spend less time under its effects and emerge on the other side sooner. Often, our personal "storms"—those challenges that seem insurmountable—tempt us to run away or delay facing them. No business… too complicated… I’ll have to deal with employees or get sued. No promotions… I’ll be told “No”. No investment… I’ll lose money And so on… ​ But what if we acted like bison? ​ It’s not just about getting through the storm… No. It’s about what we learn by facing it. It’s about the strength we discover within ourselves. It’s about the stories we gain to share. ​ Every storm has taught me something and has toughened my skin more than I ever imagined when I was younger. ​ The next time life tests you, ask yourself: Am I willing to move toward the storm? ​ Remember, in every difficult moment, there’s a chance for personal discovery. ​ If you want to know more about yourself, click below.

It was a test. Just for fun. I get an idea, I test it immediately. No second guesses. No “mañanas”. When I started selling services through this newsletter, there was something I knew was far more important than the services themselves. Transformation. Awareness. Control. Network. I was totally aware of this. And it’s something you should never lose sight of. No matter if it is for your own business or you work for someone else. But also… communication. It doesn’t matter how good you are at...
Does the public sector do it right – I’m asked many times. The short answer is Yes. And more often than you think. But you don’t get it into the headlines. This project is not very known for the great work of the parties involved. But you should know. The script is simple.PPP starts.Private side over-promises.Public side signs without reading. Then the claims rain down like monsoon season in Manila… or politicians on elections rally. M4 East Motorway, Sydney.Australia.Toll road.AUD 3.8...
Sometimes I’m heavily criticised. And I love it. Just awakening consciences. You oversimplify. Things are not that black or white. The situation was complex. Etc. And yes. It’s true. Simplification is important in our lives. Unless you’re a FlatEarther, you won’t be surprised if I say that the Earth is round. Or spherical. But that’s an oversimplification, because it’s not. However, for your day to day, that simplification is enough. You don’t care if the radius of the Earth is a few...
