The World Of Work Is Changing
300 million full-time jobs will be affected by AI in the next 10 years.
This isn’t some distant prediction.
It’s already happening.
The Japanese bank I worked for made around 5,000 employees redundant in its Tokyo office.
Later, they announced that 10% of their London workforce would also be made redundant.
It’s no joke that chasing your dreams is easier than finding a job.
And this is only the beginning.
AI is getting better. Companies are becoming leaner. Entire roles are being automated,
outsourced, or transformed.
Everything points toward individual creative work.
The idea that you can simply get a job, work your way up, and rely on one employer for the
next 40 years is becoming harder to justify.
For the first time in history, one person can learn a valuable skill, publish their ideas to
millions of people, build an audience, sell products and services, and create an entire
business from a laptop.
You don’t need to wait for someone to give you an opportunity.
You can create one.
But before I go any further, let’s see if you should even keep reading. If you don’t relate to
at least one of the following, you can leave this page.
- → You have multiple interests, endless ideas, and a burning desire to create but no idea how to attract people to your work (or get them to care about it).
- → You’re not confident in the quality of your writing, newsletter, social media content, or personal brand.
- → You’re already creating content online but don’t have a system for consistently producing content that stands out.
- → You haven’t acquired a valuable, high-income skill yet and want one you can sell independently or use to amplify every other skill you have.
- → You trade your time for money and want to build something that isn’t entirely dependent on your time.
- → You’ve followed “learn a skill > sell the skill” advice and struggled to make it work because you don’t have enough attention, authority, or audience.
- → You’re tired of learning skills that lead nowhere and don’t want to spend the next 10 years doing work you can’t see yourself doing for the rest of your life.
