You'll think of it during the weekend
|
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.

Or the next certification. Or when I come back from holidays. Or when I have time “in the summer”. Or when I read “that” book. Or else. Pray and wait is a strategy for failure. Or mediocracy. Problems don’t solve magically themselves. Wishes never come true unless you move your a$$. This is true for...
I told you about Horward before. 1982. New York. A young guy joined a company. Not as CEO. Not as strategist. Not as “Head of Vision.” Director of Retail Operations. Exciting, right? Mid-level. Replaceable. Just another guy executing someone else’s plan. The company was called: Starbucks The guy was: Howard Schultz At that time, Starbucks didn’t even sell the “Starbucks experience.” They sold beans. Machines. Coffee equipment. No romance. No Italian fantasy. No global empire. Just beans. But...
Excellent professional. First in coming in. Last in leaving. Sacrificing holidays, family time and even health. Limited recognition. Or not recognition at all. Tried to change career path. “If only you had specific experience”, “It would be great to have it done it before”, “But this is complicated”, “If you had more exposure to clients”, “what’s your commercial experience”. Don’t blame those questions, or the messengers. Fear is logical. In today’s world where you have to cover your @ss at...
