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.

I'm the only idiot arriving in a gold Ferrari.” His father goes silent. Then replies: “My son, you should have told me earlier. I'm sending you £300 million immediately. Buy yourself...
Accidents aside because of lack of maintenance and incompetent managers and politicians, Spain has made great things in high-speed trains. Let’s go back in time to the good times. 1988 The country decided to build a high-speed railway between Madrid and Sevilla… or Seville. 470 kilometres. New infrastructure. New technology. A country with no previous high-speed rail experience, but willing to become a top guy. By April 1992, passengers were travelling at 250 km/h. About three and a half...
You know... I just came back from China. And I have to admit something. I was impressed. Not by the skyscrapers. Not by the technology. Not even by the infrastructure… or the great toll systems (yes, I’m a geek for them). Although, to be fair, a country that added almost 2,900 km of high-speed railway in a single year deserves some credit. Some countries struggle to build 3 km of metro without a parliamentary inquiry, a budget revision and three changes of government. No. What impressed me...
