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.

I’m flying to Fiji for a week. And I’m not worried about the Wi-Fi. My business will keep moving. The important decisions have been made. The decision flows have been tested. And the right people know what to do if something goes wrong. It wasn’t always like that. I still remember my first Christmas holidays as CEO of A30 Express in Montreal. There was an accident. A fatality. Snow had accumulated against the barriers of a bridge. It froze. And created the perfect ramp for a car to fly over...

Look. A question for you. What is more dangerous… Sending a letter you know may be wrong? Or sending one that everyone is convinced is right? In my experience… Definitely the second. A bad letter creates questions. A polished letter creates confidence. It has been reviewed by management. Checked by the lawyers. Discussed with the technical team. Perhaps even approved by the Board. Everyone agrees. Send it. And that is precisely when I become nervous. Intelligent people do not normally make...

Rule 8 of PPPs: Never go around the SPV. That shortcut has lawyers at the other end. I know why agencies do it. The SPV needs to consult the contractor. Then the shareholders. Then the Board. Then the lenders. Then the lawyers. What should take five minutes takes three weeks. So, someone decides to be practical: “Let’s speak directly with the contractor.” Wrong. Look. The contractor builds the project. The SPV owns the promise. The SPV holds the Project Agreement. The SPV carries the...
