Would you play a game where you have 99% chances of losing? Before you answer, listen. Or read… sometimes I forget that this is an email… ​ Well… read or listen. ​ It’s impossible to make an adult to change their mind. Impossible, at least in one conversation, demonstration or else. In fact, the more you try, the more convince that “adult” is on their position. ​ It’s that simple. ​ And if not impossible, let’s say that this won’t happen 99% of the time. ​ Well… ​ People are still playing that game. Over and over. Over and over. Every single day. ​ No wonder why they could be called losers. ​ Still, people argue. People get angry with one another. People lose their friendships. ​ What a waste. ​ And very importantly remember this. Remember it very well. Repeat it every day. People prefer to be right than knowing the truth. I do my things. I let others argue, enter into arguments… I just go with MY flow. ​ I do small investments, some other quite big. ​ Since I don’t argue, I live happier and wealthier, and I go faster. ​ A lot of this is expressed in my philosophy about how approach real estate. ​ If you want to know more… here you can get some clarity. ​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.

In this mail, you’ll learn an invaluable lesson about sales… Don’t believe me? Just keep reading. A few days ago, I had a conversation with a great entrepreneur. He is in a new venture.

More profit. More growth. I explained him something. People don’t want to make more money. They say they want, but they...
I arrived on a Sunday night. Jet lagged. Second time I crossed the Atlantic. I woke up early. Full day of meetings. My head was hurting. Jet-lag… and the Quebecois accent. 4 years without having said a word in French, and now… that weird accent. At 6pm, I was really in bad shape. I said… I go to the hotel, I need a quick dinner and a sleep. “Yes, Vicente, do that… and remember that at 10:30pm, we are leaving” “?????”. Well… Apparently, with all that accent, I had not understood that I had to...
This email contains the formula to learn anything. It’s not a secret. And it’s obvious. And you know it. But your ass loves to be comfortable. Look.
