Thought of the Day

This is so true. you just have to call the attention of your prospect for a problem that he may not know he has. Just do that and you have a fat chance of making a sale.

yes your first job is to sell the problem. If there is no problem why to buy a solution?

When people talk about the vibrancy of modern London, they tend to mean central London (known in the local transport vocabulary as “Zone 1”). But beyond that is what Doris Lessing in her novel The Golden Notebook (1962) called “London in its faceless peripheral wastes”.
She writes: “The street of grey, mean little houses crawled endlessly. The grey light of a late summer’s evening lowered a damp sky. For miles in all directions, this ugliness, this meanness. This was London — endless streets of such houses. It was hard to bear, the sheer physical weight of the knowledge because — where was the force that could shift the ugliness?”
......................
No wonder that Londoners — despite having the UK’s highest incomes — report the joint-lowest life satisfaction of any English region and the joint-lowest sense that “things we do in life are worthwhile”. Most Londoners aren’t tired of London but they are exhausted by it.
Leaving aside the super-rich, London works best for young adults. It’s a good place to start building a CV, to find a mate among the endless assortment on offer and then to leg it before you’re sharing your bedroom with a baby.
.................................
The logical thing to do (presuming Brexit doesn’t happen) is to arbitrage the two: live on the Med and work for a London company. This will be an obvious decision for the next generation of knowledge workers, for whom the concept of a daily commute to an office will probably seem baffling.

I am on this i would love to live in Lisbon and work for a London company and eventually pay London taxes! Yes there are some cities where you would only live there to make money. Is this possible to part time in London and have the weekend house in a better country!

i think it's difficult.

The battlefield is a scene of constant chaos. The winner will be the one who controls that chaos, both his own and the enemies.

I have been involved in sports for many years. I have never won anything, I have done one podium and many top 10 classifications but never a number one. One thing I have noticed is that the nº1 guy the winner is a special guy. It’s not for everyone to win. The focus, the effort and the give it all are out of charts. In a competition there is chaos it's a roller coaster of emotions the winner can control that. To be nº1 is to be special.

If you have to hire someone hire someone that has won anything in school, in college etc… the winner is a special person. Don't doubt that.

This is a pic of the 2012 EOX 240 km race. i did 3rd overhall!

I took this pictures from the great Business Insider

even if you are not a cyclist i think this Photos are so unique, the countryside, the mountains and the immense crowds along the road!

One of the reasons i love to ride is that in a normal weekend ride we can do 140 k and see different parts of our beautiful country. If i played tennis or swim i would be confined to the tennis court or the pool. Not for me.
