Trump is leading the pools, this is how you'll be affected
|
Yesterday I saw that Trump is taking the lead in the pools. That’s terrible. It’s so bad, so bad for you, for the economy and the democracy, that… It’s at least as bad as… if the other lady wins the election. Or as good as… Or as irrelevant as… If you look at any elections or any government with the hope of them changing your life, forget it… unless, of course, you want to be a slave of the system. The maximum thing that Trump winning or the other lady winning will do is changing your mood… for a few days. Just like your soccer team winning… happy days… sometimes, just hours. But imagine that you can control your mood. Better. Imagine that you can control your mindset… That’s the path to take control. That’s the path to seek promotions, to make more money, to build wealth… That’s the path to freedom. So… Cultivate your mind. Educate yourself, and you won’t depend on the circus. If you want to learn something new today, I can tell you a story. It is the story of how I became CEO of a company holding assets for more than 1 billion dollars. And before you say anything, let me add this. In life, there are two kinds of people. Those that will say that “this does apply to my case”, and those that say, “how the heck do I apply this to my case”. As I said… Cultivate your mind. Be free. The story is this week’s lesson in the membership below. Enjoy. ​Join my mentorship - Only $24.90 - LAUNCHING PRICE​ By the way... There is an AI machine that says that you may like what's below.

You must speak up. Not in theory. Not on LinkedIn. In the room. Because there’s a lie many professionals tell themselves: “If they valued me… they would know what I think.” Wrong. “They should figure out” Again, wrong. That’s not intuition. That’s resentment… in disguise. Assume ignorance before malevolence. Read that again. People are not ignoring you. They simply don’t know what’s in your head. And you’re not helping. We live in a culture that avoids friction. People stay quiet. Nod. Let...
Sometimes I’ve walked into meetings where you could smell the blood from miles away. In one of those meetings, the SPV chair looked like he had just fallen off a tree that same morning. Stuttering like crazy. Like a guy from my hometown we used to call “The Stutterer”… el Tartas de mi pueblo. Impossible to take seriously. Looking at his papers. Looking at the screen. Searching for inspiration in the PowerPoint he put together the night before. He already started badly… talking about the...
A PPP somewhere in Canada. Mid 2010s. Saturday night. Concrete poring of a key structure in the critical path of the project. Everything looked perfect on paper. Full closure approved Concrete plant booked Pumps lined up Crew ready Weather… “acceptable” 22:00 : Go time First trucks arrive. Pumps start. Concrete flowing. Then… rain. Not heavy. Not dramatic. Just enough to start messing with the surface. The kind of rain that kills quality slowly. The dangerous one. 23:30: First tension Quality...
