Lot of time spent with family, friends and people I used to know these days. Looking at what people do and say every 12 months is mind blowing. How close and how far away you can be 12 months, and 20.000 km away. You hear conversations. About 20 or 80 euros more or less per month that people receive in their pensions or in their social security payments. Complaints. Hopes. But not much action. Not much anything. I suppose that spending 1 or 2 hours to make a claim to the government is too much of a burden. Better complain and do nothing. But the most lovely scene of these days are the queues. And not the typical queues at the malls, at the bars, at the restaurants, at the ice cream shops, at the cafeterias… No. The queues to buy Spanish lottery. More than one hour waiting in the street. Under the cold. Sometimes under the rain. One hour waiting to buy a 2 euro hope ticket for a 0.000001% probability to win a few million euros. 2 euros and one or two hours of queue. You can explain them that they could go to the internet and with no waiting and from the comfort of your home, buy the same tickets and even have access to more tickets and buy exactly the number that you want… but again. Too much of a burden. Too much complexity. Too much work. Better waiting in the queue. In the course below, you can increase your chances of making a few million euros by a few million times the probability of winning the Spanish lottery. You can do it from the comfort of your home. No queues… But maybe… to much of a burden. Too much complexity. Too much work. And this is why you won’t buy the course below. ​Even you can make money in real estate. ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

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...
Last year, talking with a big guy in a big company, he showed me their offices. “Look at all the meetings,” he said. “They’re working hard.” As a consultant now, I’m always curious and put into test what I’ve learned the hard way through the years. And let me tell you some data. Studies show that the average employee is only truly productive for about 60% of the workday. In office jobs that translates to roughly 2 hours and 53 minutes of focused work out of 8 hours. Same hours. Much less real...
Too many products. Too many versions. Too much confusion. And the CEO comes back. He walks into a product meeting. Engineers proud. Slides prepared. Roadmaps built. He listens. And listens. And listens. Then he walks to the whiteboard. Draws a simple 2x2 grid. Consumer / Pro. Desktop / Portable. “That’s it,” he says. Everything else? Gone. Not optimized. Not restructured. Killed. In one meeting, he cut roughly 70% of the product line. Imagine the room. Years of work. Teams built around those...
