What would you say are some of the important skills or qualities to learn in order to succeed in this new era of career and business opportunity?
So first is realizing that you have a life experience that can help someone go faster. That's extremely valuable and people only need to hear it from you. So if your information is that valuable to somebody else, you have to realize that that your life experience, you're one chapter ahead or one book ahead or a year ahead or a decade ahead. It's that valuable to somebody starting off on day one. And people are realizing they can shorten the g by finding somebody who's already done what they want to do. They could go back to school and maybe get more general knowledge. They could learn through their own trial and error. They could try to figure out how or they could find the who and all of us can be the who for someone else. Once we understand that asset is valuable, then the rest is a process. Like you said, it's extracting it, packaging it, offering it.
