Let me reiterate what I’ve already said in this chapter, and I’m doing this for emphasis because it is critically important to me that you understand what I am trying to say. That you stop being afraid, and you change your mindset into a very positive one.
Because that is not just the purpose of the book, but also the only way you will benefit from this book: by embracing a positive, abundance mindset about tech and the future.
Technology is not something to be afraid of, but rather something to be embraced and something to be used to enable our careers in the future.
Yes, technology is moving forward at an incredible pace, and it is doing things that we never imagined it could do. But this is no reason to be afraid. This is every reason to learn more about this technology and, more importantly, to learn how we can leverage this technology for career and business success.
Because those people who do that are the ones who are going to be tomorrow’s leaders; and everybody else will stand back, and they’ll wonder, how did this guy become so successful? How did this person reach those kinds of heights in their business and in their careers?
But people won’t realize that the “secret sauce” was that they embraced the technology of their time. Ever since the dawn of many of these technologies, we found the exact same thing repeating over and over and over again.
Facebook emerged because Mark Zuckerberg embraced the technology at the time: computers. Apple emerged because Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak embraced the technology of the time. Google emerged because its founders embraced the technology of the time. And all of them had a plan how to leverage this technology for business and career growth. And they saw massive growth. Will you?
Yes, you can, and you will. And I will show you how. Be patient. I’m making my case, and I will get to the juicy parts soon. Keep reading.
