“ I have this theory of humanity, which is, everybody has the same skill. And that skill is pattern matching. The difference is that we're all good at matching different patterns. The more that you can figure out which patterns you're good at matching, the more you can lean into that.”
- Jason Feifer
Key Takeaways:
-
Pattern Recognition: Learning which patterns you recognize will guide you to know what you are innately talented in and how to develop. Also, if you listen to the questions that people ask you, you will discover that those questions pointing to what people think your value is to them.
-
The Future of Work: The four day work week if implemented can be very successful for many problems. As the future of work changes companies and employees need to understand that solving one problem might create another better problem. When this happens, it is important not to throw out the original idea, instead address the new better problem and fix it.
-
Identify with an Archeytpe: Identify the archetype that best defines who you are and what drives you. If you do this, even if your circumstance change (job title, financial status, relationships) you will have less sense of identity loss and more resilient as you adapt.
