Architect your FUTURE, don't Passively Wait for It
If you want to become an active architect of your own future of work, you need to make learning your new way of life. It should not be something that you are required to do, but something that you actively pursue every single day to create the future that you aspire to see — the future of your work.
I had the honor to speak at @Youth Employment Services (YES) about the future of work and, more importantly, how you can architect YOUR FUTURE of work and not passively wait for it.
A few principles to keep in mind:
See learning as a process, not the end goal. And that process is more important than the end goal.
Learn by doing.
Embrace failure as part of the learning process. Don't just give it lip service; use it to learn and grow and see it as part of success, NOT the opposite of it.
Make space to reflect. That's where the learning happens.
When entire industries are being disrupted within a few decades, learning will no longer be a means but will become its own end, as we need to learn and adapt over and over again to thrive and not just survive.
