Your comment is really appreciated. We are stuck with little alternatives, maybe we don't have the possibility of revolutionary change, but we have no excuse not to do incremental improvements.

I totally agree with you with your thoughts about Spanish politicians. Unfortunately there are no ways to do a hostile takeover to politicians (Well... there is one, but better not to use it ;-) ) Great post!

I'm not suggesting "balance" all the time, but definitely balance some of the time. It is ironic that someone who mentors businesses on how to leverage their resources and to take multi-dimensional risks is unable to do so in his own life and in his own business. Feel sorry for the guy. One can almost guarantee it that he will get to that point in his life (towards the end) where he will have more regret than gratitude.
