Think far ahead of present times
Today, we just cannot afford to live in the present. We need to be prepared for the future, right today. For example, pretty ordinary housewives who have some relative who is a bit IT savvy, start a YouTube channel, where they keep on presenting some regional recipe or the other, with several variations. There are some who reportedly earn at least fifty thousand rupees per month, through their services.So, they have leveraged technology to express themselves. There are too many opportunities floating around and one needs to just understand the situation around him or her to make a big difference and be ahead of the learning curve. This is exactly why mid-career executives,even from HR,are doing IT courses in Artificial Intelligence and Cloud Computing,, among others.
We need to explore such learning and skilling opportunities. We just cannot afford to relax now. This is true for students, housewives, self-employed professionals and so on.
