Next time someone tells you that making money isn't a matter of mindset, ask them how much they earn. ​ I see out there many people following advice from people that have zero skin in the game. Accountants that tell you to do X, Y, Z, with your investments… but they don’t have any investments. Or accountants that tell you that you shouldn’t create a company and remain as a sole entrepreneur because it’s simpler… but they use a company. Traders that provide courses and make zero dollars doing traders… 100% of revenues providing courses. I always got fascinated by professors in MBA schools that were teaching “business”, but they haven’t created any. Now, it’s the social media.

A second runway. More capacity. And Kenya did not exactly have a few billion dollars sitting comfortably in a...
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...
