This One Goes Out
to All the Whiners
Living in the Past
Still boo-hoo-hooing about ‘all the jobs
in the United States’ being deported?
Here’s what I said when it first started happening — you lost your job to someone overseas who could do it cheaper? Create your OWN job, invent your own market, discover something that can’t possibly be outsourced — your own unique perspective on anything… your brain, your imagination, your CREATIVITY.
Ain’t no one outsourcing “Don The Idea Guy” — not that they COULDN’T find some brighter folks with bigger ideas by tossing a dart at any random point on the map — but they wouldn’t have MY unique way of thinking — they wouldn’t be DON The Idea Guy.
But Dan Pink says it better than I. That’s why he gets the writing assignments and book deals, and I get my blog. Because no one is outsourcing Dan Pink’s brain either!
Check out Dan’s great article in Wired — based on concepts from his latest book “A Whole New Mind” scheduled for release later this month.
