Thriving in the Technology Era is a Harsh Sport

Thriving in the Technology Era is a Harsh Sport

This is why you want to expand your knowledge and skill repertoire so that you can gain some competitive advantage.

Combine a handful of skills that are rarely linked to each other, rarely blended together.

Examples:

  • Doctor& YouTuber/Streamer
  • Computer Science & SEO/SEM Marketing
  • UI Designer + Mathematician
  • Historian + Lawyer + Statistician
  • Programmer + Philosopher + Public Spe  aker

View yourself as an Experimenter

View yourself as an Experimenter

You are not trying to master and combine 50 different random skills and juggle an overwhelming amount of snowballs that can ultimately melt in your hands.

- Albert Einstein

:::

Meaning =

if you are not able to translate your thought processes’ outputs into meaningful, actionable advice one can learn and build on is a huge loss for the future of humanity.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Sean Green

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
