SHOW NOTES: Did people whine as much years ago as they do now? They won't let me succeed at my job. They won't hire me anywhere else. Maybe "toxic workplaces" are caused by toxic employees? Maybe terrible bosses are just leaders expecting employees to meet deadlines and fulfill assignments? The fault is with the "Boomers" or GenX because they took advantage, they led great lives, and left nothing for us! Nothing but a healthier, safer world and the last decade of constantly improved living standards. I'm not valued! Maybe because you don't create much value and you don't make it visible. Take some accountability, and stop immersing yourself in the internet for that good old confirmation bias from other people who don't take initiative. If you're unhappy in your job, change it or leave it. There's plenty of work out there that pays well, isn't threatened by AI, but does require responsibility and ownership. But just stop whining, stop yelling for your Mama. It ain't your mother's fault.

Process vs Content
SHOW NOTES: If you want to maximize your business growth, you need to generalize and not specialize. There may be exceptions, but generally, the more potential buyers you have the more business you'll generate. A content expert knows the "what." It may be insurance, or auto manufacture, or solar panels. You sell insurance to people to need insurance, auto manufacture skills to, well, auto manufacturers, and solar panels to people who desire it, have the capacity for it, and have a roof (or a large field). But a process expert knows the "how." It may be sales, customer service, decision making, conflict resolution, or negotiating. And these needs, this expertise, is needed cross-industrially and globally. Problem solving, for example, has three components (hear them on the recording) which are immutable, no matter what the circumstances. These process skills are often called "critical thinking skills," which are not sufficiently taught in schools nor recognized in workplaces. Hence, my highly successful career, and this podcast.
