When your world catches fire, do this

You cannot help it. You pay yourself last. You are the last monkey in the queue. ​ Don’t believe it? ​ Well… let’s check. ​ You have your day planned out. You're going to be strict and responsible. You’re going to do what you're supposed to do and not get sidetracked. You’re going to have a proper breakfast, hit the gym, work without allowing interruptions. You’re going to leave at a certain time, and come home without looking at your phone until the next day, but... ​ You check your phone. 3 unexpected emails, 5 notifications… ​ The message from your boss, or a client. A new presentation to be delivered tomorrow. The guy that was going to help you is sick. The other lady you were expecting to review her job didn’t have the time to delivered it. ​ You cancel the gym. Start working from home with just a sip of coffee and leave two hours late. Work, work and work and cling to your phone until bedtime, which, of course, is three hours later than it should be. ​ You tell yourself silly things like you'll sleep tomorrow or that you need some time to unwind… ​ ​ Your discipline is weaker than the ideals of a politicians in front of their donners. ​ ​ Just a small piece of advice that you didn’t ask for. ​ Next time that someone call you with something urgent use one of these two techniques:
​ That’s your statement of intent. ​ And if you think that your boss or your client will fire you… you’re wrong. Nothing that send more authority to and calm more the other than knowing that you are busy and working hard. ​ So, next time that your world catches fire, remember: you can’t come right now. ​ For more tips, just join my mentorship in the link below: ​Join my mentorship - Only $24.90 - LAUNCHING PRICE​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

A nice thing of brining my son to daycare and this being in the same building than the main NZ infrastructure agencies is that you meet lots of people. From the doors to the elevator, people having coffee, hanging out in the sofas, etc. Suddenly a “hey, Vicente”, and then… Some free consultation. Well… not as free, as the coffee is excellent, I always order one. “On me”. The usual suspects are: How can ensure competitive tension? How can I deal with claims? How can I prevent claims? How many...
I’ve been closing some insurance policies these days. For myself. Health, life, mortgage, etc. You don’t appreciate enough a good broker until you get one. If you’re serious about investing, this is your second more important broker after your mortgage broker. But I don’t want to talk to you about personal insurance. But PPP insurance. It’s probably one of those fields, most people mess up. Clients. Banks. SPVs… All parties alike. You have insurance to cover accidents on site causing...
I’m doing quite a lot of work these days with market lead proposals. I mean, proposals coming directly from the market and made to the government of New Zealand. I love the ideas put forward by proponent. Their enthusiasm. And commitment. Most of them fail in the “exclusivity” criteria.
