Deep dives
The Emergence of a New Society: Virtual and Rapid
A new virtual society has emerged through the rapid development of social media. This society evolved quickly due to the burning problems in human life that programmers, visionaries, and businesses spent years solving. This emergence transformed communication, information, business, and opportunities from being local to global.
The Creator Economy and Decentralization
The creator economy, which emerged from social media, allowed for the advancement of decentralization. Unlike dominance hierarchies, which have limited opportunities at the top, creator actualization hierarchies allow individuals to continually evolve and move up based on their skills and experience. Lessons in the creator economy are shared through courses, content, and a constantly evolving knowledge base, fostering growth and specialization.
The Shift from Traditional School System to Creator Society
The traditional public school system has many problems, including compartmentalized learning and conformity over authenticity. In the creator society, individuals pursue their own interests, find teachers or creators who resonate with them, and treat learning as a part of life. This new school system is centered around internet content and courses, fostering curiosity, adaptability, and self-generated goals.
The Creator Economy and Personal Branding
The creator economy, fueled by personal brands, allows individuals to contribute value through content and products. Personal branding is not limited to business owners, as everyone can participate by showcasing their interests and skills on social media. Social media serves as a public job board, school, note-taking system, and networking platform, making it accessible for individuals to connect and collaborate within the creator economy.
