In 2019, Institute for the Future estimated that up to 85% of jobs that will exist in 2030 have not yet been created. We are now 7 years away from 2030 and I suspect percentage of jobs not yet created is still pretty higher. How will YOU adapt to a changing world? One way is to continue Learning.

Lifelong learning has been the most important success habit that I have picked up during my career so far. The strides I have made so far are only possible due to being open to learning consistently. I have developed a lifelong learning ethic and will continue to strengthen in this area.

In episode 5️⃣ of my podcast, I talk about the power of lifelong learning and how it helped me, how to develop lifelong learning skills, and action items around learning to follow up on.

You can listen to the episode at this link. Episode is also found on all podcast platforms: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Overcast, etc.
