Multitasking kills more dreams than a nearby disco with reggaeton. Focus is everything. This is why there are so many people, companies and politicians competing for yours. Distracting you. Keeping you down… unfocused. News, sales, offers, “favours”. They arrive from everywhere with the only objective of grabbing your attention. ​ When you are managing a project, for example, having many open fronts is a terrible distraction. You end unable to differentiate the urgent from the important, the important from the essential, and so on. You end like a beheaded chicken going from one fire to the next… keeping your busy… and happy and comfortable in your busyness, you end achieving very little. There are plenty of people whose job is “answering” emails. Obsessed with keeping the inbox at zero… instead of achieving their targets and get things done. Clarity is so important. Focus is much easier with clarity. Apply this thinking to your job, your business, your project. Everything changes when your brain pushes only in the direction you want to go… ​ I have a course about clarity. It answers one of the most asked questions in Real Estate. ​Is this piece of Real Estate a good investment?​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

If you work in infrastructure, you are in a sector that is essential. I’m watching the AI revolution carefully. But the way a new road changes the lives of thousands of people with or without mobile phones in an instant is still too...
Every December, projects enter a strange parallel universe. And this week everything explodes. Budgets are frozen. Teams disappear. And every email ends with “before the Christmas break, please.” If you have been in “a Change approved before the Christmas break”. “A package submitted before…”. Etc. You’re in the trap. I did it once… Years ago. A change to be “approved” before the end of the year. So we rushed. Design team, commercial, legal, operations, the construction… everyone. Sleepless...
As many of you, I’m flying now. Holidays. Family. “Relax”… if a three years-old allow you to do so. Before I used my more than 20 hours of flight time to catch up with movies or read that book I definitely wanted to have read before arriving to destination. Now, I have to sync my sleep with the little one and get into the loop of all Disney Cars movies and Bluey shows. Still I have time to think of my next project. My next investment. And not just real estate, but also education and training....
