A short YouTube monologue by TJ Walker urging professionals to 'digitize' their careers.

Simple question for you. What are you doing to digitize your career? 2020 was an awful year for pretty much everyone except for people who had their businesses based entirely in the digital world. Now, if you're not a high tech person, guess what? You don't have an excuse. I'm old enough to have gone to not only high school, but college and to have never even touched a computer. I don't know I gigahertz from memory, from megabyte. I don't know any of that. And yet I have migrated almost all of my business into the digital world. There's a lot of ways of doing it. You can learn computer coding, something I know nothing about. You can learn how to design websites, something I know nothing about. You can make online courses, you can write books, you can create YouTube channels. But if you're not creating and learning about the digital space, you are setting yourself up for massive failure.
