Believe it or not, you're alone

Having conversation with people in their sixties and over gives you a different perspective to what’s the world today. Those people are my parents. Probably your parents too. Those people still shape our minds and thinking. And we perpetuate that mindset, at least, partially, in our children. Our parents lived a very different world. They could expect their companies to take care of them, or the states. Today companies can’t do that. The states are broke. The average life of a company in the 1950s was just over 60 years. Today it is less than 20 years. In 10-15 years time, this will be below 10… Don’t look at the debt of the states in the 50s and today, or you’ll feel sick. Our parents lived in a world where you could thrive in the corporate ladder. Today, no matter how high you are, that’s the path to fear and insecurity. Your brain is your only weapon. And trust me. You’re alone. No company, no state will save you. Just your brain. And for your brain to thrive, it needs to be filled with knowledge and the feeling of empowerment. Then, it needs do, do and do, to keep learning, and your freedom developing. ​ You can read some of that path in the stories I tell below. ​

You feel it when the conversation comes up. Fear. Artificial intelligence. It’ll replace us. It’ll get us into trouble. We should be careful. I’m amused. Especially, when we enter into the combination of robotics and AI. That’s when things start coming interesting. Surgeons, replaced. All doctors, why not. Elon is very supportive of that. Consultants. Caregivers. And so on. Robots and AI will take all jobs. This time is different… Of course! Like the steam machine. Like the automobile. Like...
Last year, kindercare official picture, Christmas party with kids and family, strawberry picking, etc. This year, nothing. Last year, a competent person. This year, someone less so… or with less time… or with more excuses. No matter your contract. Your organization chart. Your incentives. Your whatever. People continue to be the key for success. Still companies squeeze to the bone salaries and benefits, and treat people like commodities… And honestly, they are not. At least, not yet… who...
I signed the contract on Monday. On Wednesday, I received a welcome email – I’m your personal property manager. Next day – Mail. We are talking care of connecting utilities. Later mail: Done!
