You want to get fit or financially free? Don't do this
|
You know that working 8 hours a day for over 40 years straight, just to retire and finally enjoy “the life of your dreams” in the last stage of your life has never been my cup of tea. ​ My goal is not the Lambo. It’s not drinking overpriced wine… and obviously not New Zealand red wines. ​ I just want to own my time. ​ That’s it. ​ Some people call this financial freedom. ​ You know that I read about the subject. Forums, blogs, books, and… from time to time I did it on social media. ​ Yes… it was a time where I checked those places. ​ Here is the problem I discovered. ​ If you check those sites that poison your brain, you’ll find a bunch of self-proclaimed “experts” telling you exactly what to do to reach financial freedom. ​ The problem? None of them have actually achieved it. ​ Think about it: ​ Overweight people preaching health. Government employees giving startup advice. Broke financial gurus talking about “freedom” while watching their bank account hit zero on the 25th… ​ Come on… You have to laugh. ​ I don’t know about you, but I don’t listen to people like that. ​ Think again: Want to get fit? Follow athletes, coaches, and nutritionists. Want to learn business? Study successful entrepreneurs. Want financial freedom? Pay attention to people who are already there. ​ That’s it. ​ And with projects or infrastructure, this works the same. ​ Think again please: Want a bridge over the sea? Find those that have successfully done it before. Want a tunnel under the sea? Find those that have successfully done it before. Want a successful PPP? Find those projects that were delivered successfully ​ That’s it. ​ Want to know about a project that was successful despite all the odds? ​ Check below.

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. He tries to implement AI in small and medium size building. The progress is slow. Not the kind of exponential growth that AI promises. The slogan? We help you to make more money with less. 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. Most of us learn to ride a bicycle only by falling off a few times. We learn to walk by falling a few times. Then we get to school, and we are taught not to fall. We are taught that people who fall are stupid. We are taught that smart people are people who sit like the three birds on the fence and memorize the right answers. I was a nerd. Less...
