Forget AI, Here’s How To Win In The 21st Century
You probably use AI everyday at work and at home to help you with a variety of things. Despite this immersion, you might be feeling a bit uncertain that AI will take over and you won’t have a job left.
I believe there are four human superpowers that will allow you to always stay on top. There’s going to be a lot of change in the next 30 years in how the world works and having these superpowers is critical.

Will Work-Life Balance Leave You Mediocre?
Emil Barr - a young American entrepreneur who, by the age of 22, had built two companies valued at more than $20 million - wrote a Wall Street Journal op-ed titled “Work-Life Balance Will Keep You Mediocre.”
Barr’s argument is simple and unapologetic - he claims that pursuing work-life balance actively holds people back from exceptional success. It’s bold, it’s uncomfortable to read. But is it true?

My guess is that you have the first two dialed in - enjoyment and satisfaction - but that perhaps the third might be missing.
Giving 100% Effort Doesn’t Mean Eating Lunch At Your Desk
“Many people are happy to just give 10%, I just don’t know any of their names.” - David Sedaris. 100% effort for me doesn’t always mean hard work and eating lunch at my desk, it means taking the risk to be wrong. In a startup, it’s hard to do a mediocre job when everything relies on a few people. Things will go wrong and make us feel silly. But at least here at Wildest Dream, we’re all well beyond 10% effort and if looking silly is the price we pay for running towards something we truly believe in, then it’s worth it.
The Benefit Of Two Way Doors
That’s the thing about life, you have to try things in the full knowledge that it could be a terrible idea.

So, try something, at the very least you’ll get a cool t-shirt, at best you might open a new café.
