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.

Unless you want a horror story. Or an “insípida” story that says nothing. You don’t put on the market an unconnected series of projects. That’s not a vision. It’s election time in New Zealand. And every time I’m invited to a forum, I repeat the same message. Infrastructure needs a long-term story. A real one. What do we want to become in 30 years? Because it cannot change every time the government changes. That’s not strategy. That’s improvisation. Or shooting yourself in your foot. If a...

There is always another offer. You have to approach real estate investment with that mindset. It’s a trick many agents use. “There is another offer.” Aka: urgency. Bring your top price if you want it. Not sure if it’s legal or illegal… but it’s everywhere. Now. If the property is good. If the price is good. People should be bidding. That’s a good sign. Be careful with properties that look great… but nobody wants. Are you missing something? So, when an agent calls me and says there’s another...

Parkinson’s Law: Work fills the space you give it. “If you give yourself three years to complete something, completion will take three years.” Now replace “three” with whatever number… like eight. That’s what I keep seeing in infrastructure. Projects designed to take 8… 10… 12 years. Not because they need it. Because nobody in the room knows how fast it can actually be done. Some clients hire advisors who have never delivered a project at scale. Or with no direct experience in the type of...
