In Japan, they often say: If you’re not intentional… it gets overrun with weeds. Randomness. Distraction. Noise. This happens when you have too many goals. Too many priorities. Because let me tell you something. If you don’t have a clear maximum of 3 priorities… you have none. You get distracted. With lesser goals. Stupid goals. Or worse… scrolling. Looking for your next dopamine hit. This applies to your life. But also to how you work. If your door is always open… Don’t complain about lack of progress. And in PPP bids? Exactly the same. People spending hours on irrelevant details. Because it’s shiny. I’ve seen a Board spend hours deciding the name of the consortium. Hours. And then… Meanwhile, the real risks?

Launched in 1999. First of its kind. A full model: Design. Build. Finance. Operate. Not just the building. Healthcare delivery. High risk. High exposure. High scrutiny. And still… It worked. Well… somehow....
Yesterday I learned that the European Union, the climax of bureaucracy in human history, will require passports for all dogs and cats. Some countries want to be wealthy. Others want to lead in technology or AI. Others want to be the best place in the world to do business. In the meantime… the EU is busy with things that will surely make it richer, more prosperous, and a better place to live. I’m telling you this because the EU is not unique. This is everywhere.

My wife is preparing a yoga retreat. She works hard. She needs “disconnection.” Fair enough. Now… the price? Let’s just say… You’d expect a 5-star hotel. Except the hotel looks… basic. Very basic. And there’s a small detail: There’s no food. No lunch. No dinner. Fasting, they call it. So basically… You pay like you’re getting a Michelin tasting menu… But the experience is: “You don’t eat.” Interesting business model. I don’t know what you think.
