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.

Human emotions spread fast. Very fast. Much faster than any virus. If you go to a stadium and the home team is winning, there’s an explosion of joy. The exact opposite happens if they lose at the last minute. It’s contagious. Inevitable. If your little boy takes her first steps, the huge look of surprise and joy on his face will infect you instantly. That’s who we are. It’s our nature. You don’t need a PPP Certificate from the World Bank to understand this. So… If you spend your life watching...
According to the market research company Harris Poll, 52% of people between 16 and 26 wish social media had never been invented. Con dos c0jones. If they are not your clients or employees or colleagues now, they will be very soon. What’s this telling you? Simple. Worry less about technology and much more about experience and understanding. Most people out there are obsessed with how to implement AI, but are incapable of empathizing with their neighbor’s human pain or joy. Don’t stress about...
I’ve never seen anybody truly making anything great just by waiting. Just by not taking action. Just by letting train after train leave the station. Tomorrow. When I finish the next free-course. 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...
