The digital platform has changed more than radio, television, newspaper and music. I can walk into a McDonalds and tap my order into a huge screen. I'm doing the work and they charge higher prices. That huge notebook out front has eliminated jobs. Thanks to the success of Amazon, grocery stores, Walmart and Target have made online buying the must do. The digital platform has made our lives so easy! Pull back the lens of the camera and you'll see the unemployment numbers of brilliant minds and hard working people increasing. You won't see this on the news because propaganda is so easy to digest. We all want to live in a thriving country. We don't want bad news and God for bid please keep us free of all things that might invite fear, shame, doubt and guilt. We only want happy! How do you do that when the one skill you thought you mastered is no longer part of the process of success? The digital platform has erased your path from the history books. They sorta kinda taught us this in high school. I remember my economics teacher speaking of the day when all industries will no longer be in need of large numbers of human bodies. How then do you get over the over? How do you move beyond what's over? Too often we thrust ourselves back into the race by accepting lower pay for the same play. I'm far from being the only one in any business that doesn't fight to keep their skills locked in forward motion. Only to be consumed by the reality of over meaning over. Learning to rebuild requires faith, confidence, trust and absolutely no greed. You don't have room for it. I've learned a lot about being over. People that own and or manage businesses want your skills but come up with lame excuses as to why they can't pay for your knowledge and experience. My very good friend Nathan and I spent hours talking about this very subject. With strength he'd say, "You aren't designed to always give away your art. You have value. You have to trust in yourself so that the self you are won't be fed by the idea of being needed. That feeling of others depending on you is a cheap rush and it will destroy you. You need to get paid." Getting over the over. That talent or gift you have will never disappear, only the industry that once paid for HBO and a tank of gas. In this age of too many community schools pouring book taught students into the communities needing cheap labor, the deeply dedicated, loyal and determined need to collaborate and cross pollinate their skills. This is the time to build new empires using the digital platform as a universal language. The reason why most don't try is because being part of the digital platform pays very little if any. Which totally goes against the conversations I had with my friend. We'd rather be over with the over then invest in the possibility of utilizing our gifts on a new platform that requires what we know and not who we know. The new age of quality is to get by with as little as possible. Less has proved its worth. It's more!
