This is the most significant factor in your success
|
People think that it is what they study. Others the wife or husband or partner that they choose. Others the first company they work for. But no. Studies show this over and over. The most important decision in your life is city you decide to live in. This defines what wife or husband you can have, where you’re going to work, the salary range, the tax system, the business opportunities, your potential growth as professional or businessman, etc. There are people so aware of this fact that change cities after a max of 5 years. If you are feeling now, that “joder” I should have known earlier. Don’t do that. There are opportunities everywhere, big enough to satisfy your most untellable wet dreams. And with this I go a common theme. Excuses. Excuses to not calling now, not sending the email now, not sending the resignation letter now, not telling this or that to your boss now, not buying that business or piece of real estate right now. Excuses that keep you in the comfortable place that you hate in silence or screaming. Both are terrible. Not sure that the link below will be useful to change that… But, at least, if you don’t think about changing your city right now, it may be a good start. ​Join my mentorship - Only $24.90 - LAUNCHING PRICE​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

It’s a superpower. But people are not interested in the others’ point of view. Just in theirs. We are egocentric by nature. So listening it’s a superpower. I let the agent to do the talking. My side, just questions and nodding. Disclosures? None… well… there was some flooding… Price expectations? This property in 2021 would be selling by… Yes, but what are the owners expectations today. Well… in January, they received an offer by X and was rejected, now… I’m not sure what they owners will...
Arguments, unfortunately, don’t work. It’s proven. People don’t change their beliefs. At least, not with arguments. The reason arguments do not work is that most people hold their ideas and values without thinking about them. Think of politics. Think of clauses that you’ve seen in contracts. Think of people supporting their favourite teams. There is a strong emotional content in their beliefs. They really do not want to have to rework their habits of thinking, and when you challenge them,...
Impossible. Nobody can be that stupid. Well… welcome to another day. A contractor (let’s call him Mr. Optimism) decided to “save time” on a warehouse project. How? By installing the roof before securing the steel structure with the final bolts. “Don’t worry, jefe, it holds by itself.” Famous last words of every construction project ever. The weather app showed light breeze. New Zealand showed: “Hold my beer.” A 45-km/h gust arrived, grabbed the entire roof like a giant frisbee, and sent it...
