Watch out with this sect


If you are part or play around of the sect of the majority, you hear words like these:

“Keep your feet on the ground."

The followers of the majority even well-intentioned try to put you down and bring you into the sect.

“Keep your feet on the ground."

Your parents, your teachers, your bosses, your colleagues, your friends, and in-laws:

“Keep your feet on the ground."

They forget the “come to us” and become a zombie as we are.

Look.

To make an omelette, you need to break some eggs.

I don’t know many cases of people that followed the majority and got anywhere interesting or great.

And if they are, there you are the exceptions to the rule.

​
You have to dream and fight.

You have to expose yourself.

You have to try new things. Do, do and do.

You have to train.

You have to read and write and speak, after you listen – not before.

Simply, if you do the opposite of what the sect says, you win.

​
With business, with partners, with your habits, with your discipline.
Do the opposite of the majority.
And you win.

​
It’s simple.

It works.

As Isra Bravo says: Feet shouldn’t be on the ground; they should be in the sky.

​
"Keep your feet on the ground” – they say.

On what ground?
On whose?
On the ground of a bureaucrat or on that of a millionaire?
On the ground of a unionist or on that of a true artist?
On the ground of a civil servant or on that of a writer?

​
On what ground?

​
The ground of the majority is fragile, like their will and their ambitions.
They only have one big thing: their FEAR.

Don’t be afraid.

Metronet was responsible for upgrading and maintaining most of the London Underground under one of the largest PPP programmes ever undertaken. The structure was sophisticated. The contracts were enormous. The advisers were experienced. And the incentives were fundamentally wrong. “That doesn’t apply to our project.” Of course not. Your project is unique. So was Metronet. Well… in our case. Metronet’s shareholders were also its principal suppliers. Con 2 c*jones… or with 2 eggs. Strong...

“Not for me.” Of course not. This is what some of you wrote to me yesterday. Your operator definitely did not price the contract as if KPI deductions did not exist. They definitely did not assume the client would pay every change at cost plus margin… once or twice a year. And your builder? Of course they brought people with real close-out experience. They know exactly where the records are. The test results. The as-builts. The approvals. The evidence the Independent Engineer needs before...

“That doesn’t apply to my case.” I hear this all the time. Different asset. Different contract. Different country. Different shareholders. Different problems. My project is special. Of course, it is. Even the air you breath is. Look. Assets, projects, SPV, your toilet, whatever… are not making you suffer or smell bad odours because of a completely unique problem. The details are different. The patterns are not. It is the same in sales. Selling something for $5 and selling something for...
