INVESTING IN POSSESSING INFORMATION INSTEAD OF JUST ACCESSING IT
The tools have evolved, but we haven't evolved because we don't have to do as much for ourselves anymore. Pay ourselves forward with what can't be taken from us. Focus on collecting skills rather than roles – skills you take when you leave your role. We live in a world where we have access to a vast amount of information at our fingertips. However, there is a difference between accessing information and truly possessing it. We need to invest in possessing information and developing our own skills to evolve and grow as individuals.
The tools we use have evolved, but we have not evolved as much because we don't have to do as much for ourselves anymore. This leads to a devolution where power is transferred or delegated to a lower level. We need to pay ourselves forward with what can't be taken from us, such as our skills and knowledge. Egypt is an example of a civilization that was truly evolved and enlightened. They were connected to the source in a way we are not today. We, as a society, no longer have the knowledge or skills to replicate what humans were once capable of building. How did this happen? The knowledge was not retained.
