A Thought-Provoking Article I Want You To Read

Carlos Caro

Jun 7, 2023

It’s not that often I find an article online that I go back and re-read twice.

But, 8 weeks ago I bumped into an article that I’ve read 4 times already. And, I plan to read it a few more times before I share my take on it.

On April 7th, Dan Koe wrote a piece called Self Improvers Are Creating Their Own Careers Online (Here’s How), and it got me thinking.

He opens with 4 realizations he’s had:

Entrepreneurship is the only path for long-term logical thinkers
Humans have been removing labor work since the beginning of time (and we are on the horizon of complete removal)
The creator economy is the new economy. If you don’t have a personal brand you lose.
Sensible people get paid for doing what they enjoy doing.

I’d love for you to read this article so that you have context for my next post where I’ll break down his thinking a bit, share my own thoughts, and connect it to what I’m doing with my online writing efforts.

I hope you find it as thought-provoking as I did.

Cheers,

Carlos
