When you do the right thing
|
During my holidays, I’m supervising a few Real Estate projects. And you know when you try to do shortcuts. They hit you in the ass one day or another. No matter how fast you run, how hard you try… your main job becomes to hide and deal with missteps moving forward instead of stopping for a second and redo the thing in the right way. Sorry. There is only one way of doing things and be successful: doing the right thing. The truth is effortless. You don’t need to remember and justify your lies. The same is with your projects. Do the right thing, even if it is hard, even if you need to recognize mistakes. If you do that, your professionalism goes up, and that puts you miles away from the rest. If you do that, your business goes up, improves, becomes known for the right things. You’ll thrive. ​ In my last project, lots of time was wasted in covering things not done right… when the answer, the guideline, the right way… was perfectly described in the contract… ​ Check it out. ​

They say that if you don’t get haters, it’s because you are unnoticed. They also say that if you don’t get sued, it’s because you are not achieving anything valuable.

You’re a kind of Care Bear, an Osito Amoroso. Spreading love. Fearful of upsetting anybody. You’re average in Averageland. And if you...
The Channel Tunnel. 50-km underwater megastructure linking France and the UK. An engineering icon. A masterpiece. A miracle of geology, finance, diplomacy, and caffeine or theine. A day like today in 1998. New Year’s Day. Half the team hungover. Half asleep. Half the world still partying. The temperature suddenly dropped. Outside: freezing. Inside the service tunnels: warm and humid. A perfect recipe for the gods of engineering to say: “Let’s mess with them.” Condensation froze. Ice formed on...
If you thought that I’ll be telling you happy new year stuff, you don’t know me enough. Once that you over drink and over eat tonight, you have one year ahead. To grow. To become better. To achieve great things. Up to you, what you want to do tomorrow. When there are some people messing around with “resaca” or a “hangover”, others will be running.
