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.

Sometimes, at high tables, you need to swallow. You need to let something pass… Let them, as Mel Robbins would say. You need to smile when you...
A few days ago, Monge Malo, the best sales trainer in Spanish language talked about The Abilene Parados. The Abilene Paradox happens when a group of people does something nobody actually wants to do because everyone assumes the others want it. Like Christmas dinners. Or most corporate meetings. Twelve adults in a room. Nobody agrees. Nobody believes the plan. Nobody thinks the process makes sense. But everyone nods. The junior person thinks the senior people know better. The senior person...
Yesterday at 23:59, the price of the two Hand-Back Requirements courses almost doubled. As announced. As promised. As warned. So if you bought them yesterday, congratulations. You acted like an adult. Rare. If you didn’t… Maybe you were busy. Maybe you had to feed your fish. Maybe your dog needed emotional support. Maybe your procurement committee required three working groups, two memos and a risk register before approving a very simple decision. Maybe you opened the email, thought “I should...
