Think about this and thank me

The same thing that discourages some motivates others. Another person’s well-being, their neighbor’s prosperity. A car, a house, a trip. Some feel attacked by this; others feel motivated.

The second group believes by default; they don’t consider it might be a lie because they know that when you believe something is achievable, you end up seeing the path to achieve it. Where some find an excuse, others find a reason. There are people achieving more with less effort.

Everybody wants trains. Modern stations. Frequent services. Maybe even a metro. Like London. Or Paris. Or Madrid. But please, no...
There was a time when managing a project meant managing a project. You know. Cost. Time. Quality. Safety. The usual boring stuff. Then someone discovered KPIs. Key Performance Indicators. Beautiful invention by consultants paid by the slide. And who have never actually managed a project. They design 47 KPIs. Each with a definition. A formula. A weighting. A threshold. And a 93-page document explaining how they work. Or how they're supposed to work… Of course, nobody really knows… but they...
A helicopter is a jodidamente difficult machine. To fly one, you must coordinate several controls simultaneously. Get one wrong, and things become… let’s say unpleasant. Get several wrong, and your career as a pilot may be short. First, you learn to take off. Then to fly. Then to fly at night. Then in formation. Then, perhaps, in combat. And only after mastering all that might someone reasonably ask you to land on a moving aircraft carrier. In the middle of a storm. At night. Now, imagine the...
