Creator economy!

Having experience in the tech world is a funny thing. Only the person knows how sincere they were when something is experienced as part of doing work. With the advent of the internet and free content available over the internet, the experience can easily be faked. You can claim to know things and yet have never done any of those very things.

This creates a false impression of a rising knowledge economy that lacks real experience. When was the last time you really did the thing that will mean technology prowess?

Many resumes are thus becoming an ideal way to represent what you think you will have wanted to do and experience. If those resumes were an honest articulation of the projects you have done and what habits you have toyed with then that would be far more valuable than the fake resume that portrays that you know it all.

Resumes are not trusted by those creating those and they are not trusted by those who use them for recruiting good help.

In the creator economy, no one else is a judge of your work. You produce work because you enjoy it, like it, want it, can do it, and others tell you to do it.

What matters in a creator economy is your list of projects and your stories (articulation) of those project experiences.

When one is able to overcome the resistance to starting a project, they have already embarked on the journey of creator economy. You believe your work was genuinely useful to yourself and to others and you leverage that to enhance your interaction, and confidence and to raise possibilities to do more such fulfilling work.

Creator economy believes intangible work you produced, qualities you possess, and the rigor that is demonstrable through the consistency of the work and habit you cultivated that took you on the journey of creation. Creator economy looks for well-rounded responsible creative people to employ and empower. 

The self-sustaining and self-nurturing work environment that is on the rise at present will succeed because of such creators. Such creators are often decisive problem solvers, collaborators, negotiators, and initiators who inspire others through their own contributions.

Who are you? Are you fit for new age creator economy?

Checks and balances!

Defining a good purpose, setting a target goal and getting people working on them is usually not enough! There are too many aspects involved in getting the results we want. For example, there is an aspect of painting the big picture, working on motivation management, productivity tracking, building experimentation labs, and erecting resilient systems that systematize the workflows. Just putting bodies to work and defining milestones rarely achieves the right results. The other aspects that help march towards the milestones in an orderly manner, they are equally important. At the very least, they make objectives widely understandable and results more attainable. The job of a thought leader is to enable progress and enable recovery. Therefore, it is never enough to have just ideas. Those with ideas also have the responsibility to assemble the work environment in such a way as to create situations containing the energy disperses. Energy dispersal from lack of clarity, loss of motivation, ...

The hyacinth at the surface - nectar - just beneath!

The envy of comparison is an unconscious, quietly growing emotion, like water hyacinth spreading unnoticed on a pond's surface. It surrounds the nectar of the water, creating the illusion of poison. The water itself, however, is inherently sweet, with the nectar infused deeply within it. But just cast off the tangled trap of those creeping vines, and the water will reveal its true nature—flowing freely, tirelessly, with a sparkling clarity. Water’s existence, its entire journey, is one of cooperation, of giving endlessly with a pure heart.  Even in the face of numerous obstacles and thorns along its path, water remains undeterred—a divine miracle, no doubt, but one forged through relentless effort. Who notices this journey? Who understands it? Water has no respite—it constantly battles friction and wear. "Why is this thorny life my lot?" It may ask, as feelings of resentment, anger, jealousy, hatred, sorrow, and helplessness arise. Just when it seems trapped, its spirit s...

Adopt beliefs and then adapt them often!

We get fixated in viewing surroundings through a narrow lens of gained experiences. Our beliefs form based on what we make of those experiences. Each experience reinforces to core of thinking we lean for making decisions about our day to day decisions.  On a good day it is not uncommon to witness a formation of a belief! Life events, unexpected outcomes make is revisit the foundations we stand on to make ourselves visible and act. It leads to adaptation of our foundational core that we take for granted. Adaptation of foundational core is vital source of energy and paves a way new experiences that broaden our perspectives. It we feel lost often then it is a sign that foundational core needs adaptation. We must adjust the core enough to get a different view from a different angle For the core to adapt, we must force new experiences. What we know served us well. Until now. We must find a new foundational core to stand on. The one that works for us now. Adopt beliefs that serve our pre...
