00:00:05.929 --> 00:00:07.490
All right there.

00:00:07.511 --> 00:00:10.871
Katie Sutton, welcome back to your show.

00:00:10.891 --> 00:00:12.372
Good morning, how are you?

00:00:12.413 --> 00:00:14.153
I'm doing great.

00:00:14.173 --> 00:00:15.375
Last week we talked about,

00:00:15.435 --> 00:00:16.054
what was last week?

00:00:16.074 --> 00:00:17.455
It was four questions on how

00:00:17.475 --> 00:00:18.655
to revamp your career or

00:00:18.696 --> 00:00:19.777
sort of like reframe or

00:00:19.817 --> 00:00:20.757
re-look at your career.

00:00:21.757 --> 00:00:23.059
And now if you've taken

00:00:23.099 --> 00:00:24.298
those and you've done those,

00:00:24.759 --> 00:00:25.519
I did a little bit.

00:00:26.019 --> 00:00:27.701
I think it was a good way to

00:00:27.721 --> 00:00:29.102
look at things because it

00:00:29.141 --> 00:00:31.582
allows you to reverse engineer.

00:00:33.128 --> 00:00:33.789
Because what you would tell

00:00:33.829 --> 00:00:34.811
a seventeen year old, right,

00:00:34.871 --> 00:00:36.832
it's May as we record this next month,

00:00:36.853 --> 00:00:37.773
all these high school kids

00:00:37.792 --> 00:00:39.435
are going to graduate these kids today.

00:00:39.454 --> 00:00:41.197
And that question is going

00:00:41.216 --> 00:00:42.497
to have is going to come up.

00:00:42.857 --> 00:00:43.459
What do you want to be when

00:00:43.478 --> 00:00:45.540
you grow up or what are you

00:00:45.561 --> 00:00:46.601
going to major in school?

00:00:47.061 --> 00:00:48.463
What job are you going to get after that?

00:00:48.523 --> 00:00:49.723
And the funny part is.

00:00:51.478 --> 00:00:53.039
someone said it when I was

00:00:53.279 --> 00:00:54.319
graduating high school,

00:00:54.598 --> 00:00:55.920
which was nineteen ninety seven.

00:00:56.320 --> 00:00:57.020
And I think the world was

00:00:57.060 --> 00:00:58.500
moving pretty fast in ninety seven.

00:00:59.040 --> 00:01:00.180
But it's not even close to

00:01:00.201 --> 00:01:02.421
how fast the world is moving now.

00:01:02.682 --> 00:01:04.263
So the reality is the jobs

00:01:04.302 --> 00:01:06.103
that the class of twenty

00:01:06.144 --> 00:01:07.864
twenty five graduating from

00:01:07.884 --> 00:01:09.484
high school or college are

00:01:09.525 --> 00:01:11.025
going to have five years from now.

00:01:11.725 --> 00:01:13.406
They might not have been invented yet.

00:01:14.887 --> 00:01:15.947
So we talked about this a

00:01:16.007 --> 00:01:17.947
little bit last time, which is.

00:01:20.149 --> 00:01:23.632
Look for the elements or the skills,

00:01:23.712 --> 00:01:23.891
right?

00:01:23.932 --> 00:01:25.834
Because skills are like the

00:01:26.394 --> 00:01:27.896
periodic table of elements

00:01:28.075 --> 00:01:29.617
of whatever it is you are,

00:01:30.076 --> 00:01:33.000
what you like doing, what the world needs,

00:01:33.099 --> 00:01:34.320
what you can get paid for,

00:01:35.262 --> 00:01:36.822
and what you're good at, right?

00:01:36.843 --> 00:01:37.983
That's ikigai, what you love,

00:01:38.004 --> 00:01:38.623
what the world needs,

00:01:38.664 --> 00:01:39.465
what you can get paid for,

00:01:39.504 --> 00:01:40.046
what you're good at.

00:01:40.855 --> 00:01:41.537
So cool.

00:01:41.936 --> 00:01:44.058
But what skills like in what direction?

00:01:44.097 --> 00:01:45.780
So not just saying to a high

00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:46.719
school graduate in twenty

00:01:46.739 --> 00:01:47.781
twenty five or a college

00:01:47.801 --> 00:01:48.882
student in twenty twenty five.

00:01:49.542 --> 00:01:51.162
What classes should you take?

00:01:51.903 --> 00:01:53.665
A lot of times you work at a university.

00:01:54.004 --> 00:01:56.287
Majors did not exist five

00:01:56.326 --> 00:01:58.007
years ago and now they do.

00:01:58.509 --> 00:01:58.709
Right.

00:01:58.909 --> 00:01:59.969
Complete programs,

00:02:00.010 --> 00:02:02.150
complete schools didn't exist.

00:02:02.552 --> 00:02:04.272
So there was a you found this.

00:02:04.393 --> 00:02:05.614
There was a recent report

00:02:05.634 --> 00:02:07.254
from World Economic Forum.

00:02:07.435 --> 00:02:09.395
Forum, I think, yeah.

00:02:09.475 --> 00:02:11.318
And they did this really, I like charts.

00:02:12.138 --> 00:02:13.318
I like reading and everything,

00:02:13.519 --> 00:02:14.479
but like when you give me

00:02:14.500 --> 00:02:15.520
like an image to look at

00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:17.061
and I can sort of parse out what that is.

00:02:17.421 --> 00:02:18.542
And I thought that this

00:02:18.602 --> 00:02:19.342
image was really good.

00:02:19.362 --> 00:02:20.082
So we're gonna flash it on

00:02:20.103 --> 00:02:20.623
the screen if you're

00:02:20.644 --> 00:02:22.625
watching a live stream on YouTube,

00:02:23.145 --> 00:02:24.045
but we'll walk through it.

00:02:24.485 --> 00:02:27.087
And this is, what kind of a chart is this,

00:02:27.108 --> 00:02:27.728
a quadrant?

00:02:28.968 --> 00:02:30.169
I guess, yeah.

00:02:30.229 --> 00:02:31.550
It's a graph that sort of

00:02:31.730 --> 00:02:34.473
highlights on one side

00:02:36.183 --> 00:02:37.745
share of organizations that

00:02:37.784 --> 00:02:39.586
consider skills increasing

00:02:39.627 --> 00:02:40.987
in use by twenty thirty

00:02:41.168 --> 00:02:45.670
across the X axis and across the Y axis.

00:02:45.691 --> 00:02:46.692
They're talking about share

00:02:46.711 --> 00:02:47.513
of organizations that

00:02:47.532 --> 00:02:48.734
consider skills to be core

00:02:48.753 --> 00:02:50.074
skills in twenty twenty five.

00:02:51.057 --> 00:02:52.118
So what it's saying is

00:02:52.318 --> 00:02:54.280
what's important now and

00:02:54.300 --> 00:02:55.680
what will be important later.

00:02:55.919 --> 00:02:57.520
And obviously if you look at that on an X,

00:02:57.721 --> 00:02:59.201
Y graph, the top, as always,

00:02:59.241 --> 00:03:00.222
or most of the time top

00:03:00.262 --> 00:03:02.783
into the right is better in this case.

00:03:03.524 --> 00:03:04.364
So where do you wanna start?

00:03:04.425 --> 00:03:05.585
I've broken the images so we

00:03:05.604 --> 00:03:06.284
can look at them better

00:03:06.324 --> 00:03:07.225
into the four quadrants.

00:03:07.406 --> 00:03:08.787
We gotta save the best for last, right?

00:03:08.806 --> 00:03:10.007
Let's save the future for last.

00:03:10.086 --> 00:03:10.768
What's gonna be better.

00:03:11.388 --> 00:03:14.329
So let's start with out of focus.

00:03:14.449 --> 00:03:15.169
I was just gonna say,

00:03:15.210 --> 00:03:16.469
let's start with the out of focus skills.

00:03:16.530 --> 00:03:17.651
Cause I actually found this

00:03:17.691 --> 00:03:19.551
to be quite interesting.

00:03:20.157 --> 00:03:21.497
Okay, so out of focus skills,

00:03:21.758 --> 00:03:23.319
like the worst possible or

00:03:23.379 --> 00:03:24.721
one of the worst possible skills on here,

00:03:24.841 --> 00:03:26.382
manual dexterity,

00:03:26.602 --> 00:03:28.002
endurance and precision.

00:03:28.103 --> 00:03:30.185
Like people who are good with their hands,

00:03:30.465 --> 00:03:32.026
like that jumped out at me

00:03:32.066 --> 00:03:33.707
because I recently

00:03:33.747 --> 00:03:34.649
renovated my kitchen and

00:03:34.669 --> 00:03:35.909
people who are good with their hands

00:03:36.550 --> 00:03:36.710
Dude,

00:03:36.750 --> 00:03:40.070
they are worth a lot because... So I

00:03:40.131 --> 00:03:41.151
think what this is saying

00:03:41.171 --> 00:03:42.331
too is it says less

00:03:42.372 --> 00:03:43.332
essential now and not

00:03:43.413 --> 00:03:44.913
expected to increase in use.

00:03:45.353 --> 00:03:46.574
I think because this is the

00:03:46.614 --> 00:03:47.954
global economic forum,

00:03:48.254 --> 00:03:49.034
they're looking at that on

00:03:49.094 --> 00:03:50.716
larger scales in terms of

00:03:50.756 --> 00:03:51.455
computing power.

00:03:51.855 --> 00:03:52.776
So that one jumped out at me,

00:03:52.795 --> 00:03:53.817
but I don't want people to say...

00:03:54.914 --> 00:03:55.014
well,

00:03:55.034 --> 00:03:56.194
maybe I shouldn't go back to school

00:03:56.215 --> 00:03:57.316
to be in the trades.

00:03:57.355 --> 00:03:58.256
If that's what you like,

00:03:58.895 --> 00:04:00.417
I would actually encourage

00:04:00.456 --> 00:04:01.157
someone to do that.

00:04:01.197 --> 00:04:02.116
But what else on this

00:04:02.176 --> 00:04:04.038
quadrant of out of focus skills,

00:04:04.397 --> 00:04:06.778
less essential now and not

00:04:06.818 --> 00:04:08.479
inspected to increase in

00:04:08.658 --> 00:04:09.680
use in twenty thirty?

00:04:09.759 --> 00:04:10.860
Anything else jump out?

00:04:11.721 --> 00:04:12.301
Yeah.

00:04:12.322 --> 00:04:13.862
Reading, writing, and mathematics.

00:04:14.783 --> 00:04:16.165
And I honestly think this is

00:04:16.204 --> 00:04:16.904
because of some of the

00:04:16.925 --> 00:04:17.925
things that's in the other

00:04:17.946 --> 00:04:19.807
categories like AI.

00:04:19.827 --> 00:04:20.908
Do you remember when we were

00:04:20.928 --> 00:04:22.250
in school and your teacher was like,

00:04:22.649 --> 00:04:23.350
you're not going to have a

00:04:23.411 --> 00:04:24.932
calculator with you all the time.

00:04:24.971 --> 00:04:25.593
And I'm like, well.

00:04:25.752 --> 00:04:28.375
Listen, Mrs. Shiner, I'm very sorry.

00:04:28.595 --> 00:04:29.636
But in fifth grade,

00:04:30.216 --> 00:04:31.156
you said it's not like

00:04:31.177 --> 00:04:31.617
you're going to have a

00:04:31.637 --> 00:04:32.778
calculator in your pocket.

00:04:33.218 --> 00:04:33.858
And you're right.

00:04:34.220 --> 00:04:35.221
I could have an AirPod in my

00:04:35.600 --> 00:04:37.201
ear and just ask it to do

00:04:37.242 --> 00:04:37.843
the math for me.

00:04:37.862 --> 00:04:38.163
That's true.

00:04:38.202 --> 00:04:39.504
So I'm not advocating for

00:04:39.584 --> 00:04:41.185
students or these kids

00:04:41.204 --> 00:04:43.725
today to understand the concepts of math,

00:04:44.086 --> 00:04:46.387
but like the kid who won

00:04:46.427 --> 00:04:48.809
the math B or the spelling B.

00:04:51.107 --> 00:04:51.747
Cute trick,

00:04:51.807 --> 00:04:53.088
but not necessarily the most

00:04:53.127 --> 00:04:54.809
important thing as we go

00:04:54.848 --> 00:04:56.048
into twenty thirty now.

00:04:56.108 --> 00:04:56.810
Yeah.

00:04:56.910 --> 00:04:57.930
Multilingualism.

00:04:57.970 --> 00:04:59.571
We know that there are I mean,

00:05:00.190 --> 00:05:03.733
the one of the scribes that the company,

00:05:03.773 --> 00:05:05.533
my day job uses a cellist.

00:05:06.053 --> 00:05:07.494
It can change a note into

00:05:07.574 --> 00:05:08.634
sixty different languages

00:05:08.654 --> 00:05:10.235
with a click like a pilot.

00:05:10.254 --> 00:05:10.795
Yeah.

00:05:10.815 --> 00:05:11.235
So it's wild.

00:05:11.636 --> 00:05:12.637
You can put an air pod in

00:05:12.697 --> 00:05:14.776
and have an in person real

00:05:14.817 --> 00:05:15.858
time conversation with

00:05:15.898 --> 00:05:16.517
someone in a different

00:05:16.557 --> 00:05:17.759
language and you can

00:05:17.778 --> 00:05:18.499
understand that person.

00:05:18.819 --> 00:05:20.360
I mean, this is Star Trek level stuff.

00:05:21.461 --> 00:05:22.221
Did you watch Star Trek?

00:05:22.242 --> 00:05:22.663
Were you a dork?

00:05:22.682 --> 00:05:23.983
No, I did not.

00:05:24.163 --> 00:05:24.502
Or a geek?

00:05:24.523 --> 00:05:25.564
I think I was a geek.

00:05:26.064 --> 00:05:28.305
And they would get over the fact that like,

00:05:28.324 --> 00:05:28.425
well,

00:05:28.444 --> 00:05:30.305
how is everybody in space speak English?

00:05:30.406 --> 00:05:31.425
And they solved that by saying,

00:05:31.466 --> 00:05:32.846
we have a universal translator.

00:05:33.427 --> 00:05:34.668
And that was like a cheap

00:05:34.708 --> 00:05:36.288
way of like saying like, okay, well,

00:05:36.687 --> 00:05:37.829
the audience has to understand it.

00:05:37.848 --> 00:05:38.869
So we'll just shoot everything English,

00:05:39.310 --> 00:05:39.769
except,

00:05:40.831 --> 00:05:41.612
That's a thing now.

00:05:42.572 --> 00:05:43.233
In the future,

00:05:43.293 --> 00:05:44.312
you might have that built

00:05:44.372 --> 00:05:45.153
into your house.

00:05:45.173 --> 00:05:46.134
You might just have speakers

00:05:46.154 --> 00:05:47.055
around the house and be

00:05:47.074 --> 00:05:47.995
able to have a conversation.

00:05:48.055 --> 00:05:50.497
So manual dexterity, reading, writing,

00:05:50.516 --> 00:05:53.059
arithmetic, multilingualism.

00:05:53.358 --> 00:05:55.281
This one sort of shocked me.

00:05:55.300 --> 00:05:56.201
You're in education,

00:05:56.802 --> 00:05:57.882
teaching and mentoring.

00:05:58.021 --> 00:05:58.362
I know.

00:05:58.742 --> 00:05:59.723
It was on my list of,

00:06:00.144 --> 00:06:01.985
I highlighted the ones that

00:06:02.045 --> 00:06:03.565
were either surprising or

00:06:03.605 --> 00:06:04.526
like shocking to me.

00:06:04.966 --> 00:06:06.827
And that was one that I had

00:06:06.867 --> 00:06:08.048
highlighted because I

00:06:08.129 --> 00:06:10.451
actually tell students all the time.

00:06:10.490 --> 00:06:10.771
I'm like,

00:06:11.163 --> 00:06:11.363
Hey,

00:06:11.425 --> 00:06:13.447
some of the number one ways to avoid

00:06:13.487 --> 00:06:15.050
burnout is to either get

00:06:15.069 --> 00:06:16.913
mentorship or mentor someone else.

00:06:17.413 --> 00:06:19.016
And so if they're listening to this,

00:06:19.036 --> 00:06:19.576
they're probably going to

00:06:19.596 --> 00:06:21.819
be like Katie said, but again,

00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:24.803
less essential, not expected to increase.

00:06:24.824 --> 00:06:25.545
So that doesn't mean that

00:06:25.564 --> 00:06:26.447
it's not important.

00:06:26.934 --> 00:06:27.113
Right.

00:06:27.233 --> 00:06:27.415
All right.

00:06:27.435 --> 00:06:28.636
So this is the bottom left

00:06:28.675 --> 00:06:30.617
of the graph as Tony Maritato chimes in,

00:06:30.677 --> 00:06:31.619
teach them how to fish.

00:06:32.120 --> 00:06:32.781
So like that,

00:06:32.880 --> 00:06:33.822
I believe he's talking about

00:06:33.882 --> 00:06:35.624
in terms of like math instead of like,

00:06:35.644 --> 00:06:35.843
you know,

00:06:35.884 --> 00:06:36.884
teach them how to do this stuff.

00:06:36.904 --> 00:06:37.425
So I don't know.

00:06:37.725 --> 00:06:39.067
To me, I would expect,

00:06:39.247 --> 00:06:40.129
and I've cheated because

00:06:40.149 --> 00:06:41.089
I've looked at this graph before,

00:06:41.711 --> 00:06:42.632
the ability to communicate

00:06:42.651 --> 00:06:43.632
an idea is going to be up there.

00:06:43.713 --> 00:06:44.774
So this is the bottom left.

00:06:44.913 --> 00:06:45.595
Where do you want to go?

00:06:45.615 --> 00:06:46.375
Where do you want to go now?

00:06:46.923 --> 00:06:48.824
Ooh, let's go to, how about steady?

00:06:48.923 --> 00:06:51.644
Yeah, let's use steady.

00:06:51.805 --> 00:06:52.524
Steady skills.

00:06:52.704 --> 00:06:54.125
So this would be core now,

00:06:54.146 --> 00:06:55.526
but not expected to

00:06:55.706 --> 00:06:58.026
increase in the future.

00:06:58.047 --> 00:06:58.966
So this would be the bottom

00:06:59.047 --> 00:07:01.408
right of the graph, like getting better,

00:07:01.968 --> 00:07:03.848
but not expected to increase.

00:07:04.228 --> 00:07:05.810
Not a whole lot on here that fits there.

00:07:06.970 --> 00:07:08.810
Dependability and attention to detail.

00:07:09.310 --> 00:07:11.132
If you're going to have AI oversight,

00:07:11.351 --> 00:07:11.612
you can...

00:07:12.252 --> 00:07:13.413
I use Grammarly.

00:07:13.774 --> 00:07:14.553
I was never good at grammar,

00:07:14.574 --> 00:07:15.595
and I have a degree in journalism.

00:07:16.235 --> 00:07:17.216
I could get the idea,

00:07:17.797 --> 00:07:19.137
but help me get the fine point.

00:07:19.158 --> 00:07:20.559
Where does the apostrophe go again?

00:07:20.619 --> 00:07:21.098
Possessive?

00:07:21.139 --> 00:07:22.901
I never learned that, and I'm forty-five.

00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:23.701
Oxford comma.

00:07:23.761 --> 00:07:25.242
Nobody really knows.

00:07:25.362 --> 00:07:27.444
Service orientation and customer service,

00:07:27.483 --> 00:07:27.785
though.

00:07:28.685 --> 00:07:30.646
Yeah.

00:07:30.666 --> 00:07:31.307
Steady skill.

00:07:31.807 --> 00:07:32.007
Yeah.

00:07:32.608 --> 00:07:32.887
I mean,

00:07:33.668 --> 00:07:35.190
I can use all the technology I want,

00:07:35.250 --> 00:07:36.752
but I still hope that when

00:07:36.793 --> 00:07:37.673
I go to the coffee shop,

00:07:37.733 --> 00:07:39.456
I get great service and

00:07:40.336 --> 00:07:42.959
customer service oriented

00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:44.040
towards the human

00:07:45.891 --> 00:07:48.733
The funny part is as the pendulum swings,

00:07:49.312 --> 00:07:50.434
the funny thing is that's

00:07:50.473 --> 00:07:52.134
how pendulums work, right?

00:07:52.173 --> 00:07:54.214
So some of these things that

00:07:54.274 --> 00:07:54.995
are going to be, quote,

00:07:55.115 --> 00:07:56.836
less important in the next

00:07:56.896 --> 00:07:59.196
five years will likely improve.

00:07:59.276 --> 00:08:00.937
Gary Vee, do you know Gary Vee?

00:08:01.177 --> 00:08:01.976
You don't seem like a person

00:08:01.997 --> 00:08:02.857
who would listen to Gary Vee.

00:08:02.916 --> 00:08:03.778
That doesn't shock me by the

00:08:03.798 --> 00:08:04.338
look on your face.

00:08:04.877 --> 00:08:06.059
Gary V's a bit in your face.

00:08:06.579 --> 00:08:08.160
He said something every day

00:08:08.180 --> 00:08:08.940
and he says a lot of things

00:08:08.980 --> 00:08:11.101
that are ridiculous now and

00:08:11.122 --> 00:08:12.262
then wind up coming true.

00:08:12.322 --> 00:08:13.163
Like he started doing a

00:08:13.202 --> 00:08:15.464
YouTube channel about wine tasting.

00:08:16.004 --> 00:08:17.446
Fifteen years ago and everybody was like,

00:08:17.466 --> 00:08:18.706
that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

00:08:19.086 --> 00:08:19.687
And he grew it to a

00:08:20.148 --> 00:08:21.168
multimillion dollar business.

00:08:22.069 --> 00:08:24.189
He said in ten years or five years,

00:08:25.091 --> 00:08:25.930
I bet you'll be paying

00:08:25.971 --> 00:08:28.192
people to take walks with you.

00:08:29.312 --> 00:08:30.732
like human companionship.

00:08:31.232 --> 00:08:32.133
Like there's a library

00:08:32.192 --> 00:08:33.633
somewhere in Europe that you can rent,

00:08:34.013 --> 00:08:35.133
you can take people out,

00:08:35.332 --> 00:08:36.273
like people with various

00:08:36.312 --> 00:08:38.234
backgrounds and spend an hour with them.

00:08:38.553 --> 00:08:39.833
And that's laughable right

00:08:39.874 --> 00:08:41.754
now until you live in a

00:08:41.813 --> 00:08:44.134
world where that isn't commonplace.

00:08:44.434 --> 00:08:45.595
And now the rare thing is

00:08:45.634 --> 00:08:46.514
the valuable thing,

00:08:46.554 --> 00:08:47.515
the thing that was everywhere.

00:08:47.895 --> 00:08:48.176
All right.

00:08:48.196 --> 00:08:49.076
So that's the bottom right.

00:08:49.436 --> 00:08:50.296
I don't think we saw

00:08:50.336 --> 00:08:51.956
anything revolutionary in

00:08:51.976 --> 00:08:53.136
the bottom left and bottom right.

00:08:53.157 --> 00:08:54.017
Bring that back up.

00:08:54.716 --> 00:08:54.977
Which one?

00:08:54.998 --> 00:08:56.239
The bottom right?

00:08:56.278 --> 00:08:57.179
The study skills.

00:08:57.220 --> 00:08:58.081
Yeah.

00:08:58.100 --> 00:08:58.620
Study skills.

00:08:58.640 --> 00:08:58.980
There we go.

00:08:59.020 --> 00:08:59.562
Study skills.

00:08:59.581 --> 00:09:01.964
Because I think, where is it?

00:09:02.104 --> 00:09:04.166
Empathy was somewhere close to that one.

00:09:04.225 --> 00:09:05.488
Empathy and active listening.

00:09:06.107 --> 00:09:07.389
But it might have been on

00:09:07.428 --> 00:09:13.154
the... You know what?

00:09:13.315 --> 00:09:15.917
Also, this might be a pared down version.

00:09:16.258 --> 00:09:17.278
We've looked at a couple of

00:09:17.458 --> 00:09:18.078
versions of this.

00:09:18.119 --> 00:09:18.240
So...

00:09:19.827 --> 00:09:20.869
Where do you think empathy was?

00:09:20.889 --> 00:09:22.109
Was that growing or not growing?

00:09:22.529 --> 00:09:24.269
My guess would be it would be growing.

00:09:25.071 --> 00:09:26.351
But let's look at the top

00:09:26.392 --> 00:09:27.792
left and top right of this graph now.

00:09:28.673 --> 00:09:29.972
Oh, it's on the border.

00:09:30.232 --> 00:09:33.514
It's on the border of core

00:09:33.534 --> 00:09:35.015
skills growing and

00:09:36.635 --> 00:09:37.015
Yeah.

00:09:37.035 --> 00:09:37.096
See,

00:09:37.115 --> 00:09:38.677
so like some of those are like right

00:09:38.716 --> 00:09:39.216
on the border,

00:09:39.236 --> 00:09:40.937
like design and user experience.

00:09:41.277 --> 00:09:42.717
So design and user experience,

00:09:42.878 --> 00:09:44.758
environmental stewardship

00:09:45.357 --> 00:09:46.798
and networks and cybersecurity.

00:09:47.139 --> 00:09:49.019
So these are emerging.

00:09:49.479 --> 00:09:51.000
They're less essential now,

00:09:51.039 --> 00:09:53.080
but expected to increase in use.

00:09:53.100 --> 00:09:55.160
So this will be the top left of the graph.

00:09:56.389 --> 00:09:56.649
Listen,

00:09:56.788 --> 00:09:57.769
everything's going to be built on a

00:09:57.809 --> 00:09:58.210
network.

00:09:58.549 --> 00:10:00.370
So just but just simply

00:10:00.711 --> 00:10:01.650
telling somebody who's

00:10:01.750 --> 00:10:02.871
twenty two years old to go

00:10:02.912 --> 00:10:05.812
get a degree in it or to finalize that,

00:10:05.832 --> 00:10:07.133
like, I don't think that helps enough.

00:10:07.173 --> 00:10:07.894
I think you have to look at

00:10:07.913 --> 00:10:09.313
the core elements of what

00:10:09.333 --> 00:10:10.455
goes into that just because

00:10:10.475 --> 00:10:11.134
it's a safe bet.

00:10:11.534 --> 00:10:13.436
I mean, years ago it was learn how to code,

00:10:13.676 --> 00:10:14.255
learn how to code,

00:10:14.275 --> 00:10:15.677
learn how to code and then.

00:10:16.437 --> 00:10:17.477
Katie,

00:10:17.498 --> 00:10:20.158
you could log on to ChatGPT and code

00:10:20.178 --> 00:10:20.958
an app if you really had

00:10:20.979 --> 00:10:22.759
the desire because it would

00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:23.961
be your coder for you.

00:10:24.341 --> 00:10:25.240
But that wasn't a thing a

00:10:25.301 --> 00:10:28.162
couple months ago for me.

00:10:28.663 --> 00:10:29.942
Environmental stewardship,

00:10:30.363 --> 00:10:31.244
like I'm shocked to see

00:10:31.283 --> 00:10:31.783
something with the

00:10:31.823 --> 00:10:33.605
environment jump on and be

00:10:33.725 --> 00:10:35.025
anywhere because typically

00:10:35.046 --> 00:10:35.885
we've just sort of trashed

00:10:35.905 --> 00:10:37.047
that thing for the longest time.

00:10:37.407 --> 00:10:37.586
Yeah.

00:10:39.010 --> 00:10:40.312
and I know very little about this,

00:10:40.432 --> 00:10:41.652
but the computing power,

00:10:42.032 --> 00:10:43.513
the energy required to run

00:10:43.533 --> 00:10:44.712
these AI systems,

00:10:45.572 --> 00:10:47.073
the water required to cool

00:10:47.094 --> 00:10:50.294
them is not small.

00:10:50.335 --> 00:10:53.817
So if we're using this AI more frequently,

00:10:53.876 --> 00:10:54.716
we've got to find that

00:10:54.756 --> 00:10:55.897
balance because we can't

00:10:55.917 --> 00:10:58.557
just continue to trash everything.

00:10:58.597 --> 00:10:59.519
So yeah,

00:10:59.558 --> 00:11:00.719
so I could see that that's going

00:11:00.739 --> 00:11:02.940
to be up there on that list.

00:11:03.422 --> 00:11:04.482
All right, so top right.

00:11:04.503 --> 00:11:05.722
This is the reason people

00:11:05.802 --> 00:11:06.583
open a graph like this.

00:11:06.604 --> 00:11:07.744
This is the reason we saved

00:11:07.783 --> 00:11:09.184
it for eleven minutes into the episode.

00:11:09.544 --> 00:11:12.225
So what is core now and

00:11:12.366 --> 00:11:14.006
expected to increase in the importance?

00:11:14.327 --> 00:11:15.227
If you've got kids,

00:11:15.288 --> 00:11:16.489
this is the one we're going to say.

00:11:16.908 --> 00:11:18.549
Skate to where the puck is going to be,

00:11:18.629 --> 00:11:19.490
not to where the puck is.

00:11:19.769 --> 00:11:20.331
So here it is.

00:11:20.390 --> 00:11:20.971
Top right.

00:11:21.051 --> 00:11:22.292
Core skills in twenty thirty.

00:11:23.325 --> 00:11:26.489
Does this shock you, Katie Sutton?

00:11:26.649 --> 00:11:27.370
When did you finally

00:11:27.470 --> 00:11:29.653
actually create a ChatGPT

00:11:29.673 --> 00:11:31.195
account after me harping on

00:11:31.235 --> 00:11:33.658
this for you for a long time?

00:11:33.717 --> 00:11:34.899
How long did it take?

00:11:34.918 --> 00:11:36.981
How long have you been playing with AI?

00:11:37.081 --> 00:11:37.923
About six months.

00:11:38.243 --> 00:11:38.582
Okay, good.

00:11:38.683 --> 00:11:41.287
Now that I'm playing with it, I love it.

00:11:41.687 --> 00:11:43.048
I still think you're ahead

00:11:43.087 --> 00:11:45.208
of the largest portion of the curve.

00:11:45.470 --> 00:11:45.730
Really?

00:11:45.750 --> 00:11:46.190
You think?

00:11:46.210 --> 00:11:46.470
Yes.

00:11:46.669 --> 00:11:47.770
There are people who are

00:11:47.811 --> 00:11:49.491
sleeping on this and bitching and saying,

00:11:50.332 --> 00:11:51.072
get off my lawn.

00:11:51.673 --> 00:11:53.215
AI and big data is the

00:11:53.514 --> 00:11:55.316
highest one on this list.

00:11:55.336 --> 00:11:55.736
It is.

00:11:55.876 --> 00:11:57.778
Way up there.

00:11:57.798 --> 00:11:58.278
Yeah.

00:11:58.317 --> 00:11:59.778
Technological literacy.

00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:01.941
Also up there.

00:12:02.041 --> 00:12:02.181
Now,

00:12:03.381 --> 00:12:06.543
here's the funny part or what I take

00:12:06.583 --> 00:12:06.943
from this.

00:12:07.583 --> 00:12:09.605
It doesn't say technological ability.

00:12:10.750 --> 00:12:12.772
It says technological literacy literacy.

00:12:13.852 --> 00:12:15.533
If I don't know how to do something,

00:12:15.894 --> 00:12:17.014
but I'm literate and I can

00:12:17.053 --> 00:12:18.875
go to the library or Google

00:12:18.914 --> 00:12:19.995
something or watch a video,

00:12:20.375 --> 00:12:22.918
I can learn how to now do that thing.

00:12:22.957 --> 00:12:24.538
Still watching is famous.

00:12:24.619 --> 00:12:25.698
I don't know something.

00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:28.640
So it's saying technological literacy.

00:12:28.740 --> 00:12:29.000
It's like,

00:12:30.855 --> 00:12:32.898
I know enough on how to figure it out.

00:12:33.038 --> 00:12:33.698
If you get me,

00:12:34.320 --> 00:12:35.341
if you can show me how to

00:12:35.461 --> 00:12:37.783
tie a fishing line and how

00:12:37.803 --> 00:12:38.563
to bait the hook,

00:12:38.683 --> 00:12:39.846
I'll figure the fish out.

00:12:39.865 --> 00:12:41.027
I'll figure it out.

00:12:41.086 --> 00:12:42.969
Technological literacy is

00:12:43.048 --> 00:12:44.291
huge because these things

00:12:44.350 --> 00:12:45.812
are going to play with each other.

00:12:46.732 --> 00:12:47.393
They already are.

00:12:47.432 --> 00:12:49.094
Like how we produce these podcasts,

00:12:49.254 --> 00:12:50.293
how we're able to create

00:12:50.333 --> 00:12:51.955
images or to write the show

00:12:51.995 --> 00:12:53.595
notes or to set up outlines

00:12:53.615 --> 00:12:54.554
before we record.

00:12:55.275 --> 00:12:56.796
All these things come into play.

00:12:56.816 --> 00:12:58.456
So I think technological literacy,

00:12:59.017 --> 00:13:00.496
AI and big data are the

00:13:00.537 --> 00:13:01.937
number one and number two.

00:13:02.857 --> 00:13:04.778
And then talk about this one to the right.

00:13:05.778 --> 00:13:09.019
Resilience, flexibility and agility.

00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:10.600
That is very high on the

00:13:10.659 --> 00:13:12.120
list in future core skills

00:13:12.179 --> 00:13:12.821
in twenty thirty.

00:13:13.100 --> 00:13:13.921
Why do you think that made it?

00:13:16.404 --> 00:13:17.206
I think that you're going to

00:13:17.265 --> 00:13:18.366
have to be somewhat

00:13:18.427 --> 00:13:19.607
resilient to push forward

00:13:19.628 --> 00:13:21.250
in a technologically advanced world,

00:13:21.389 --> 00:13:21.610
right?

00:13:21.889 --> 00:13:22.070
I mean,

00:13:22.090 --> 00:13:25.472
that's going to be very challenging.

00:13:25.513 --> 00:13:25.854
And again,

00:13:26.514 --> 00:13:27.674
someone like myself who kind of

00:13:27.794 --> 00:13:29.596
fought it kicking and

00:13:29.616 --> 00:13:30.618
screaming and you're like,

00:13:30.638 --> 00:13:31.298
it's going to be fine.

00:13:31.359 --> 00:13:32.119
It's going to be fine.

00:13:33.604 --> 00:13:33.884
you know,

00:13:34.203 --> 00:13:36.705
it isn't something that comes easy.

00:13:37.105 --> 00:13:38.504
You just taught me how to

00:13:38.705 --> 00:13:40.144
work my mic like five

00:13:40.205 --> 00:13:41.605
seconds ago before we got started.

00:13:41.765 --> 00:13:42.245
So, you know,

00:13:42.745 --> 00:13:44.485
but continuously coming back

00:13:44.505 --> 00:13:45.947
to it and trying to wrap

00:13:45.966 --> 00:13:46.667
your brain around it.

00:13:46.726 --> 00:13:46.907
I mean,

00:13:46.927 --> 00:13:48.667
but it's the same thing with what

00:13:48.687 --> 00:13:50.427
we do in education.

00:13:50.587 --> 00:13:50.908
I mean,

00:13:51.388 --> 00:13:53.227
students come in and it's a fire

00:13:53.248 --> 00:13:55.109
hose of information and you

00:13:55.188 --> 00:13:56.168
have to have a certain

00:13:56.208 --> 00:13:57.548
level of grit and

00:13:57.589 --> 00:13:58.908
resiliency to keep coming

00:13:58.928 --> 00:13:59.870
back to class because it

00:13:59.889 --> 00:14:01.129
would just be really easy to be like,

00:14:02.398 --> 00:14:03.198
I'm done.

00:14:03.219 --> 00:14:05.340
Can you tell in the first week of class,

00:14:05.580 --> 00:14:07.942
who's going to be, who's going to have,

00:14:07.961 --> 00:14:09.042
who's going to do well,

00:14:10.462 --> 00:14:11.124
who's going to have some

00:14:11.163 --> 00:14:12.063
problems and maybe who's

00:14:12.083 --> 00:14:13.044
not going to make it like,

00:14:13.125 --> 00:14:14.405
are there like key indicators?

00:14:14.485 --> 00:14:15.527
Even if you like,

00:14:15.586 --> 00:14:16.447
even if you maybe don't

00:14:16.486 --> 00:14:17.368
have words for them, like,

00:14:17.408 --> 00:14:18.928
can you just sort of gut, can you tell?

00:14:20.086 --> 00:14:20.947
I would say within the first

00:14:20.988 --> 00:14:21.528
couple of weeks,

00:14:21.548 --> 00:14:22.989
you can tell who's all in

00:14:23.288 --> 00:14:24.369
and who's not all in.

00:14:24.730 --> 00:14:25.730
And I think that that goes

00:14:25.769 --> 00:14:27.490
back to the whole four

00:14:27.510 --> 00:14:29.511
qualities of a good career.

00:14:30.712 --> 00:14:32.813
Did these people really

00:14:34.716 --> 00:14:36.116
educate themselves on what

00:14:36.136 --> 00:14:37.437
they were getting themselves into.

00:14:38.418 --> 00:14:39.479
We're in physical therapy,

00:14:39.538 --> 00:14:40.840
so it's amazing the amount

00:14:40.860 --> 00:14:41.880
of people who come in and go,

00:14:42.221 --> 00:14:43.881
I didn't know I had to touch feet.

00:14:44.363 --> 00:14:46.264
I didn't know I had to toilet someone.

00:14:46.663 --> 00:14:47.904
So those kind of things,

00:14:48.166 --> 00:14:50.006
that can totally check someone out.

00:14:50.407 --> 00:14:52.268
But it's also very,

00:14:52.307 --> 00:14:53.548
very interesting and really

00:14:53.568 --> 00:14:54.629
cool to see when you have a

00:14:54.690 --> 00:14:56.350
student who gets through, I don't know,

00:14:56.370 --> 00:14:56.971
the first year.

00:14:57.672 --> 00:14:59.234
And they were the person who was like,

00:14:59.293 --> 00:15:01.376
I'm only doing outpatient

00:15:01.437 --> 00:15:03.019
orthopedic sports and all of this.

00:15:03.099 --> 00:15:04.740
And then they find this love

00:15:04.961 --> 00:15:07.163
in acute care rehab

00:15:07.224 --> 00:15:10.427
settings inpatient or the

00:15:10.467 --> 00:15:12.509
people who had a lot of

00:15:12.549 --> 00:15:14.413
life challenges happening

00:15:14.633 --> 00:15:16.956
early in their initial

00:15:18.450 --> 00:15:19.951
educational career and they

00:15:20.052 --> 00:15:21.514
overcome these things and

00:15:21.533 --> 00:15:22.775
you're like that student

00:15:23.096 --> 00:15:24.238
shouldn't have made it this

00:15:24.278 --> 00:15:25.801
far and they find the

00:15:25.841 --> 00:15:27.022
resilience and the grit and

00:15:27.062 --> 00:15:28.364
things like that so yeah

00:15:28.384 --> 00:15:29.566
that's pretty cool to see I

00:15:29.586 --> 00:15:31.028
mean if they're kids

00:15:31.067 --> 00:15:32.549
listening you know earmuff

00:15:32.570 --> 00:15:33.510
it but I was taught you

00:15:33.530 --> 00:15:34.393
can't teach give a

00:15:36.365 --> 00:15:37.145
If you really want this,

00:15:37.186 --> 00:15:37.806
you'll find a way.

00:15:37.846 --> 00:15:39.687
You beg, borrow, and steal, right?

00:15:39.768 --> 00:15:41.389
Adapt, evade, and overcome.

00:15:41.450 --> 00:15:42.990
I think that's Navy SEALs.

00:15:43.071 --> 00:15:44.471
They're just like, you'll figure it out.

00:15:45.572 --> 00:15:47.115
Hell or high water.

00:15:47.174 --> 00:15:50.236
That is a skill that is high

00:15:50.317 --> 00:15:52.019
and to the right now and

00:15:52.058 --> 00:15:53.120
expected to actually

00:15:53.279 --> 00:15:54.461
increase in importance.

00:15:55.682 --> 00:15:56.162
Here's why.

00:15:57.583 --> 00:15:59.384
When I started this podcast in,

00:16:00.046 --> 00:16:02.408
it's nine and a half years ago, right?

00:16:02.567 --> 00:16:03.129
There was nobody.

00:16:04.434 --> 00:16:06.836
And it was both hard to get

00:16:06.897 --> 00:16:07.857
traction because I had to

00:16:07.918 --> 00:16:10.100
explain to people what a podcast was,

00:16:10.179 --> 00:16:10.440
right?

00:16:11.221 --> 00:16:12.201
But there was no competition.

00:16:13.523 --> 00:16:14.764
But people didn't know what it was, right?

00:16:15.104 --> 00:16:15.804
So you fought that.

00:16:15.845 --> 00:16:16.605
And then there was a tipping

00:16:16.625 --> 00:16:17.546
point where enough people

00:16:17.605 --> 00:16:18.807
knew what it was

00:16:19.875 --> 00:16:20.634
but then more people started

00:16:20.654 --> 00:16:21.495
to make podcasts.

00:16:22.375 --> 00:16:23.235
And now Katie Sutton,

00:16:23.456 --> 00:16:24.716
I think that more people

00:16:24.775 --> 00:16:26.437
actually have podcasts than

00:16:26.496 --> 00:16:27.976
don't have podcasts.

00:16:28.037 --> 00:16:29.258
Everybody and their mom has their podcast.

00:16:29.278 --> 00:16:30.038
People have six podcasts, right?

00:16:31.258 --> 00:16:33.698
So why do you think mine does well?

00:16:33.719 --> 00:16:35.038
I'm using air quotes.

00:16:35.599 --> 00:16:36.539
I think mine does well,

00:16:36.620 --> 00:16:38.100
not because I'm the

00:16:38.159 --> 00:16:39.120
smartest guy in the room.

00:16:39.941 --> 00:16:40.360
I'm not.

00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:42.541
I'm never the smartest guy in the room.

00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:43.481
Even full of toddlers,

00:16:43.522 --> 00:16:44.642
I'm never the smartest guy in the room.

00:16:45.731 --> 00:16:46.833
I think it's because of this thing.

00:16:47.094 --> 00:16:48.176
I like it enough to be

00:16:48.255 --> 00:16:49.357
resilient and flexible.

00:16:49.999 --> 00:16:51.520
I have my buddy Drew yelling

00:16:51.541 --> 00:16:53.182
and screaming at me in twenty nineteen,

00:16:53.222 --> 00:16:53.703
twenty twenty.

00:16:53.943 --> 00:16:54.684
You need to do video.

00:16:54.725 --> 00:16:55.466
I don't want to do video.

00:16:55.486 --> 00:16:56.128
I don't want to do video.

00:16:56.148 --> 00:16:56.628
I'm a radio guy.

00:16:56.668 --> 00:16:57.490
It's a podcast, dude.

00:16:57.970 --> 00:16:58.751
Pay attention, bro.

00:16:58.971 --> 00:16:59.472
And he was right.

00:17:00.725 --> 00:17:01.525
Most of the time,

00:17:01.546 --> 00:17:03.687
the thing we resist or we want to resist,

00:17:04.346 --> 00:17:05.547
deep down we know we have to.

00:17:05.567 --> 00:17:08.407
We don't want the icky

00:17:08.788 --> 00:17:11.048
feeling of change and the

00:17:11.088 --> 00:17:11.909
fact that now things are

00:17:11.929 --> 00:17:12.990
getting harder and heavier.

00:17:13.829 --> 00:17:14.849
Most of the time,

00:17:15.170 --> 00:17:16.410
I try to stay away from always,

00:17:16.611 --> 00:17:17.651
most of the time,

00:17:18.290 --> 00:17:19.872
though when you get past

00:17:19.912 --> 00:17:21.294
that you wish you started

00:17:21.334 --> 00:17:23.836
earlier went bigger had

00:17:23.875 --> 00:17:25.176
done it sooner and just did

00:17:25.196 --> 00:17:26.097
the thing just hit the

00:17:26.137 --> 00:17:27.558
start button yeah I knew I

00:17:27.578 --> 00:17:28.279
should have went to video

00:17:28.319 --> 00:17:29.381
earlier what else is in the

00:17:29.401 --> 00:17:31.623
top right that makes um I

00:17:31.663 --> 00:17:32.363
think these are all my

00:17:32.403 --> 00:17:33.304
favorites these are all my

00:17:33.324 --> 00:17:34.424
favorite things by the way

00:17:35.125 --> 00:17:35.965
so I'm excited for my

00:17:36.047 --> 00:17:37.448
future because everything here I love

00:17:38.273 --> 00:17:39.994
Curiosity and lifelong learning, though,

00:17:40.075 --> 00:17:41.796
I think that ties also into

00:17:41.836 --> 00:17:42.676
that resiliency.

00:17:44.057 --> 00:17:44.478
Again,

00:17:44.657 --> 00:17:47.180
just going back to teach them how to

00:17:47.759 --> 00:17:48.820
teach them how to fish and

00:17:49.381 --> 00:17:50.541
the resiliency.

00:17:50.602 --> 00:17:52.323
Well, if you want to be resilient,

00:17:52.343 --> 00:17:52.883
you're going to have to

00:17:52.923 --> 00:17:54.163
continue to ask questions.

00:17:54.683 --> 00:17:56.826
And if you keep asking questions,

00:17:56.846 --> 00:17:57.605
you're going to continue to

00:17:57.625 --> 00:17:58.606
be curious and you're going

00:17:58.626 --> 00:17:59.748
to continue to learn and

00:18:00.147 --> 00:18:00.807
all of this stuff.

00:18:00.827 --> 00:18:02.229
So just with the whole

00:18:03.730 --> 00:18:05.172
Drew talking you into doing video.

00:18:05.511 --> 00:18:05.731
I mean,

00:18:05.791 --> 00:18:07.273
you've been trying to talk me into

00:18:07.294 --> 00:18:07.874
doing video.

00:18:07.953 --> 00:18:09.175
And I'm like, hold on, wait a minute.

00:18:09.615 --> 00:18:11.178
Let me get my feet steady

00:18:11.218 --> 00:18:12.439
and all of that stuff.

00:18:12.459 --> 00:18:14.361
Well, here we are, you know,

00:18:14.580 --> 00:18:15.182
two years later.

00:18:16.522 --> 00:18:17.763
Tony, if he's still watching,

00:18:17.804 --> 00:18:19.566
Tony and I and Dave Kittle

00:18:19.645 --> 00:18:22.429
do a live stream focused on business,

00:18:22.509 --> 00:18:22.749
right?

00:18:22.769 --> 00:18:23.230
Yeah.

00:18:23.703 --> 00:18:26.365
I would say curiosity and

00:18:26.405 --> 00:18:27.686
lifelong learning is on the list.

00:18:27.747 --> 00:18:29.848
Resilience, flexibility and agility,

00:18:30.469 --> 00:18:31.809
not actual physical agility,

00:18:31.829 --> 00:18:32.830
but mental agility.

00:18:32.851 --> 00:18:33.250
Yes.

00:18:34.092 --> 00:18:35.653
This is why if you go into

00:18:35.732 --> 00:18:37.875
Facebook groups in our profession and out,

00:18:38.275 --> 00:18:39.695
you see people bitching and

00:18:39.715 --> 00:18:41.857
moaning about the way it is.

00:18:42.878 --> 00:18:44.980
They want the way it is to be better.

00:18:46.480 --> 00:18:47.501
They have to understand that

00:18:47.521 --> 00:18:48.722
they need to change first.

00:18:49.942 --> 00:18:50.703
The way is never,

00:18:50.844 --> 00:18:53.066
it's don't ask for it to be easier,

00:18:53.566 --> 00:18:54.547
just become better.

00:18:55.126 --> 00:18:56.568
And unfortunately,

00:18:56.769 --> 00:18:57.609
better doesn't happen

00:18:57.849 --> 00:19:00.412
passively most of the time, right?

00:19:00.751 --> 00:19:02.653
So look at all these things combined,

00:19:02.874 --> 00:19:03.114
right?

00:19:03.275 --> 00:19:04.796
Resilience, flexibility, agility,

00:19:05.336 --> 00:19:06.396
curiosity, lifelong learning,

00:19:06.837 --> 00:19:08.398
technological literacy.

00:19:08.919 --> 00:19:10.961
Like these are some like human components.

00:19:10.980 --> 00:19:13.083
Like you're gonna have to keep working,

00:19:13.182 --> 00:19:13.623
bad news.

00:19:14.304 --> 00:19:14.605
Listen,

00:19:14.865 --> 00:19:16.527
when my dad got a job in nineteen

00:19:16.586 --> 00:19:17.428
seventy four,

00:19:18.088 --> 00:19:19.852
he learned something and

00:19:19.872 --> 00:19:21.794
then along the way learned a little bit.

00:19:22.095 --> 00:19:23.375
But the biggest learning came,

00:19:23.395 --> 00:19:24.076
I'm guessing,

00:19:24.116 --> 00:19:25.318
in the first three to five years.

00:19:25.398 --> 00:19:27.561
My dad was a fireman.

00:19:27.582 --> 00:19:29.064
The physics of fire didn't

00:19:29.124 --> 00:19:30.025
really change a lot.

00:19:30.930 --> 00:19:32.972
Fire burn, it go up, right?

00:19:33.032 --> 00:19:35.155
It go out, it can kill you, stay low.

00:19:35.477 --> 00:19:37.378
Now, maybe they, I know this,

00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:38.981
but they invented new tools,

00:19:39.001 --> 00:19:40.743
different types of nozzles,

00:19:40.763 --> 00:19:41.506
different equipment.

00:19:41.526 --> 00:19:42.307
So the little bit of

00:19:42.366 --> 00:19:44.349
learning along the way, but most of it,

00:19:44.450 --> 00:19:45.191
he didn't have to.

00:19:45.431 --> 00:19:46.353
That's one type of job.

00:19:47.625 --> 00:19:49.526
The jobs that we're in are very,

00:19:49.566 --> 00:19:51.645
very human oriented and

00:19:51.665 --> 00:19:52.365
those are messier and

00:19:52.385 --> 00:19:54.007
you're going to have to pivot.

00:19:54.747 --> 00:19:56.067
And if you don't have these skills,

00:19:56.188 --> 00:19:57.127
I don't see you being

00:19:57.208 --> 00:19:59.148
successful in the future in

00:19:59.249 --> 00:20:00.128
most professions.

00:20:00.828 --> 00:20:02.609
Leadership and social influence.

00:20:03.410 --> 00:20:03.789
Yeah.

00:20:03.809 --> 00:20:04.529
You know what I find

00:20:04.609 --> 00:20:05.830
interesting about this is

00:20:07.250 --> 00:20:09.251
some of my original kicking

00:20:09.271 --> 00:20:10.571
and screaming about AI was

00:20:10.632 --> 00:20:11.372
I was afraid it would

00:20:11.412 --> 00:20:13.393
remove that human experience.

00:20:14.125 --> 00:20:15.404
And if you remember me saying,

00:20:15.505 --> 00:20:16.625
it's going to take over your brain,

00:20:17.006 --> 00:20:19.486
you know, um, I did,

00:20:19.846 --> 00:20:20.905
I did say that it might be

00:20:21.307 --> 00:20:23.926
written somewhere too, but, but it didn't,

00:20:24.267 --> 00:20:25.227
you know, when you look at those,

00:20:25.406 --> 00:20:27.107
that list of skills,

00:20:27.627 --> 00:20:28.627
they're still very much

00:20:28.728 --> 00:20:30.528
human element things that

00:20:30.548 --> 00:20:32.769
are in that expected to continue to grow,

00:20:32.788 --> 00:20:34.409
you know, resilience, flexibility,

00:20:34.449 --> 00:20:36.210
curiosity, lifelong learning, leadership,

00:20:36.250 --> 00:20:37.130
and social influence.

00:20:37.579 --> 00:20:40.000
So it's not saying that it's

00:20:40.080 --> 00:20:41.221
removing the human experience.

00:20:41.261 --> 00:20:41.902
As a matter of fact,

00:20:41.961 --> 00:20:44.143
it might be upping the

00:20:44.182 --> 00:20:45.343
human experience a little bit.

00:20:46.063 --> 00:20:48.344
I have, since I bought a house two,

00:20:48.423 --> 00:20:49.085
three years ago,

00:20:49.644 --> 00:20:50.805
I now have acquired tools.

00:20:51.465 --> 00:20:52.326
And this shocks a lot of

00:20:52.346 --> 00:20:52.965
people that know me,

00:20:53.506 --> 00:20:54.287
that I probably should

00:20:54.326 --> 00:20:55.626
never have a power tool in my hand.

00:20:55.787 --> 00:20:56.508
But I've gotten better.

00:20:56.647 --> 00:20:57.968
I've learned to use them.

00:20:58.307 --> 00:20:59.749
I've got a chainsaw outside in the shed.

00:21:01.038 --> 00:21:02.259
In the hands of my buddy,

00:21:02.558 --> 00:21:03.638
it's gonna be a better tool.

00:21:03.979 --> 00:21:05.599
More efficient, faster, better.

00:21:06.619 --> 00:21:07.601
I'm pretty okay now.

00:21:08.060 --> 00:21:09.421
Me three years ago was horrible.

00:21:10.301 --> 00:21:11.221
I think of any,

00:21:11.362 --> 00:21:12.702
like the stuff we're talking about now,

00:21:12.782 --> 00:21:13.962
playing with ChatGPT,

00:21:14.443 --> 00:21:15.223
the thing that will come

00:21:15.263 --> 00:21:16.304
out in six months to make

00:21:16.344 --> 00:21:18.065
all of our eyes spin again, right?

00:21:18.545 --> 00:21:20.046
It's not the tool that's gonna change it.

00:21:20.566 --> 00:21:22.326
In the hands of someone who is willing,

00:21:22.906 --> 00:21:23.366
ready, willing,

00:21:23.386 --> 00:21:25.087
and able to learn how to use it better,

00:21:25.468 --> 00:21:26.689
that person will succeed.

00:21:26.929 --> 00:21:27.788
That person will have a

00:21:28.308 --> 00:21:29.630
smoother path in life.

00:21:30.569 --> 00:21:31.330
But you got to put the work in.

00:21:31.811 --> 00:21:33.012
Like these are common patterns.

00:21:33.032 --> 00:21:34.173
You could say the same thing,

00:21:34.213 --> 00:21:35.855
but for a computer back in

00:21:35.915 --> 00:21:37.156
nineteen eighty three,

00:21:37.938 --> 00:21:38.959
computers are going to take over.

00:21:39.038 --> 00:21:39.279
Right.

00:21:39.640 --> 00:21:39.819
Yeah.

00:21:40.059 --> 00:21:40.280
Yeah.

00:21:40.421 --> 00:21:41.141
It's the person who knows

00:21:41.161 --> 00:21:42.061
how to use that and is

00:21:42.082 --> 00:21:42.803
willing to put the time,

00:21:42.843 --> 00:21:45.165
effort and money into it.

00:21:46.067 --> 00:21:48.189
Talent management, systems thinking,

00:21:48.469 --> 00:21:49.369
motivation and

00:21:49.450 --> 00:21:51.031
self-awareness also make sense.

00:21:51.412 --> 00:21:53.353
the list of core skills that

00:21:53.373 --> 00:21:54.153
are important now and

00:21:54.192 --> 00:21:54.932
getting more important.

00:21:55.313 --> 00:21:56.253
What jumps out at you from

00:21:56.554 --> 00:21:57.314
those three remaining?

00:21:57.354 --> 00:21:58.913
Talent management, systems thinking,

00:21:59.233 --> 00:22:00.775
and motivation and self-awareness.

00:22:01.494 --> 00:22:03.036
Motivation and self-awareness.

00:22:03.076 --> 00:22:04.976
So we were just talking

00:22:05.016 --> 00:22:06.196
about some of the big

00:22:06.396 --> 00:22:07.416
Facebook groups that you

00:22:07.436 --> 00:22:08.777
get into and people whining

00:22:08.817 --> 00:22:09.478
and complaining.

00:22:09.738 --> 00:22:11.817
Well, first of all,

00:22:11.857 --> 00:22:13.558
have you done any work to

00:22:13.898 --> 00:22:15.739
self-assess where you are?

00:22:17.640 --> 00:22:18.700
If it's not working,

00:22:18.900 --> 00:22:20.080
do some self-assessment,

00:22:20.441 --> 00:22:21.701
figure out where you need to be,

00:22:22.040 --> 00:22:23.901
start pulling a seat up to that table.

00:22:24.741 --> 00:22:26.842
So I always tell you that I

00:22:26.882 --> 00:22:29.923
get frustrated when PTAs kind of get like,

00:22:29.982 --> 00:22:30.962
oh, well, you know,

00:22:31.163 --> 00:22:32.942
just PTA and nobody listens

00:22:32.962 --> 00:22:34.483
to me and I don't have a voice and blah,

00:22:34.503 --> 00:22:34.824
blah, blah.

00:22:34.864 --> 00:22:36.203
And I see it the opposite.

00:22:36.223 --> 00:22:37.084
I'm like, well,

00:22:37.144 --> 00:22:37.824
I'm just going to keep

00:22:37.844 --> 00:22:38.904
showing up places where

00:22:38.944 --> 00:22:39.924
PTAs aren't going.

00:22:40.444 --> 00:22:41.865
And I'm going to ask the questions.

00:22:42.226 --> 00:22:42.885
And so far,

00:22:42.965 --> 00:22:44.605
I've not been kicked out of any space.

00:22:45.586 --> 00:22:46.666
They've all been like, come on.

00:22:46.987 --> 00:22:47.467
Come on in.

00:22:47.767 --> 00:22:48.248
Take a seat.

00:22:48.887 --> 00:22:50.468
So just pull the chair up.

00:22:50.788 --> 00:22:52.009
There's a few situations

00:22:52.048 --> 00:22:53.449
that I like to point out

00:22:54.690 --> 00:22:56.769
where people's bitching.

00:22:57.510 --> 00:22:58.211
I mean, I don't know.

00:22:59.451 --> 00:23:00.632
When's bitching productive?

00:23:01.031 --> 00:23:02.092
I'm not saying I don't do it.

00:23:02.412 --> 00:23:03.252
I get pissed a lot.

00:23:03.272 --> 00:23:03.913
We all do.

00:23:03.932 --> 00:23:04.192
Yeah.

00:23:04.353 --> 00:23:06.054
And, you know, I was told long ago,

00:23:06.634 --> 00:23:07.314
you're allowed to bitch for

00:23:07.334 --> 00:23:08.255
twenty four hours and then

00:23:08.275 --> 00:23:09.095
you got to put your your

00:23:09.154 --> 00:23:10.675
boots back on and like start solving.

00:23:10.836 --> 00:23:11.695
No one's coming to you.

00:23:11.895 --> 00:23:12.717
Did I ever tell you the boat

00:23:12.757 --> 00:23:14.557
story or the boat like a little analogy?

00:23:14.877 --> 00:23:15.897
It's one of these moments in

00:23:15.938 --> 00:23:17.259
my life that like I still remember.

00:23:17.318 --> 00:23:18.939
So I was training to be a

00:23:18.999 --> 00:23:20.359
beach lifeguard for a summer.

00:23:20.759 --> 00:23:21.980
I was going to be an ocean lifeguard.

00:23:22.020 --> 00:23:22.901
I was in North Myrtle Beach,

00:23:22.941 --> 00:23:23.641
South Carolina,

00:23:23.981 --> 00:23:25.061
one of the best summers of my life.

00:23:25.461 --> 00:23:27.143
And they did like a week of like training.

00:23:28.103 --> 00:23:29.185
And it was awesome, right?

00:23:29.287 --> 00:23:30.229
They're flinging us around

00:23:30.249 --> 00:23:32.394
on jet skis and we're doing

00:23:32.435 --> 00:23:33.679
the Baywatch thing and whatever.

00:23:33.699 --> 00:23:34.000
It was awesome.

00:23:34.019 --> 00:23:34.201
Yeah, yeah.

00:23:35.900 --> 00:23:37.161
one day we were doing boat

00:23:37.221 --> 00:23:37.961
rescues and they were

00:23:37.980 --> 00:23:39.362
showing us like and they

00:23:39.461 --> 00:23:40.782
knew we were like kid they

00:23:40.803 --> 00:23:41.542
weren't gonna let us drive

00:23:41.583 --> 00:23:42.824
the boat but like they had

00:23:42.844 --> 00:23:43.604
to train us on it so they

00:23:43.624 --> 00:23:44.464
did plus they wanted to

00:23:44.505 --> 00:23:45.224
drive the boat too the

00:23:45.244 --> 00:23:46.826
lifeguards right so one day

00:23:46.846 --> 00:23:47.906
we're doing boats and jet

00:23:47.926 --> 00:23:49.126
skis and we're jumping off

00:23:49.166 --> 00:23:50.107
stuff and we're just you

00:23:50.127 --> 00:23:50.968
know otherwise messing

00:23:50.988 --> 00:23:51.729
around just learning this

00:23:51.749 --> 00:23:53.169
stuff the next day we're

00:23:53.230 --> 00:23:54.150
out on the beach it's six

00:23:54.190 --> 00:23:55.790
thirty in the morning and

00:23:55.871 --> 00:23:56.932
the instructor I'm not

00:23:56.951 --> 00:23:57.912
gonna try to do the accent

00:23:57.991 --> 00:23:59.532
but he had a south carolina accent

00:24:00.093 --> 00:24:02.454
And he points to a buoy that was like,

00:24:02.755 --> 00:24:04.916
I don't know, a thousand yards offshore.

00:24:05.376 --> 00:24:06.377
And you could kind of see it.

00:24:07.278 --> 00:24:07.679
And he's like,

00:24:07.818 --> 00:24:09.941
the goal of this exercise is

00:24:10.000 --> 00:24:11.342
go touch the buoy and come back.

00:24:13.222 --> 00:24:14.765
And one of the kids from yesterday said,

00:24:16.145 --> 00:24:16.826
where's the boat?

00:24:18.667 --> 00:24:19.909
And this guy just looked at it and goes,

00:24:20.709 --> 00:24:21.289
you're the boat.

00:24:21.769 --> 00:24:22.351
Start swimming.

00:24:23.530 --> 00:24:25.432
So like that stupid little thing,

00:24:25.573 --> 00:24:26.153
he did not...

00:24:27.028 --> 00:24:28.130
It was not arranged to be a

00:24:28.150 --> 00:24:30.796
life lesson for me, but that's my line.

00:24:31.056 --> 00:24:33.701
When it's like, you want that sale,

00:24:34.102 --> 00:24:37.108
I want that next milestone, that marker.

00:24:38.003 --> 00:24:39.045
I got news for you.

00:24:39.464 --> 00:24:40.586
There's no boat coming.

00:24:40.645 --> 00:24:41.826
Nobody's coming to save you.

00:24:42.386 --> 00:24:43.326
So when I look at Facebook

00:24:43.346 --> 00:24:44.508
groups and people are bitching,

00:24:44.968 --> 00:24:48.130
I hear Monty, who was the head,

00:24:48.269 --> 00:24:49.471
one of the lifeguard instructors,

00:24:49.590 --> 00:24:50.471
I hear his voice going,

00:24:51.011 --> 00:24:51.893
all these people don't,

00:24:51.932 --> 00:24:53.032
they're standing on shore

00:24:53.113 --> 00:24:54.054
waiting for the boat.

00:24:54.954 --> 00:24:56.536
That buoy is not getting closer.

00:24:56.576 --> 00:24:57.736
It's only getting further.

00:24:58.717 --> 00:25:00.317
And they don't know.

00:25:01.205 --> 00:25:04.367
They're the boat, but they're, they, they,

00:25:04.387 --> 00:25:04.708
they don't.

00:25:04.907 --> 00:25:05.248
Yeah.

00:25:05.548 --> 00:25:06.169
And they don't recognize

00:25:06.189 --> 00:25:07.009
that they have the skills

00:25:07.028 --> 00:25:08.430
and the tools available to them.

00:25:09.190 --> 00:25:10.171
Some of us have more money

00:25:10.191 --> 00:25:11.192
and more connections and

00:25:11.592 --> 00:25:13.353
all that stuff sucks, dude.

00:25:13.373 --> 00:25:14.512
Some of us have bigger arms

00:25:14.532 --> 00:25:16.615
and bigger hands and we can swim faster.

00:25:17.474 --> 00:25:18.335
Start swimming now.

00:25:18.474 --> 00:25:18.954
I don't know.

00:25:19.035 --> 00:25:21.895
Like use what you have as much as you can.

00:25:22.056 --> 00:25:24.576
So if I'm renovating the

00:25:24.616 --> 00:25:25.616
downstairs room to be more

00:25:25.636 --> 00:25:27.218
of an office and like I've

00:25:27.258 --> 00:25:29.157
seen people do like neon lights,

00:25:29.178 --> 00:25:30.618
like custom neon lights and stuff.

00:25:31.118 --> 00:25:32.358
And you're the boat is one

00:25:32.398 --> 00:25:33.098
of those things for me.

00:25:33.159 --> 00:25:35.339
I was like, I don't have any tattoos,

00:25:35.359 --> 00:25:37.039
but if I got one, that might be it.

00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:38.020
It's a reminder to me.

00:25:38.040 --> 00:25:38.340
It's like,

00:25:38.601 --> 00:25:40.421
I don't care what situation you're in.

00:25:40.441 --> 00:25:41.221
This has nothing to do with

00:25:41.261 --> 00:25:42.662
water or buoys or boats.

00:25:43.041 --> 00:25:44.001
This has to do with get your

00:25:44.021 --> 00:25:44.603
shit together.

00:25:44.923 --> 00:25:45.123
Yeah.

00:25:45.343 --> 00:25:45.782
You're the boat.

00:25:46.874 --> 00:25:48.415
So motivation, self-awareness.

00:25:49.196 --> 00:25:50.538
Motivation, self-awareness.

00:25:50.617 --> 00:25:51.779
These are all things that are important.

00:25:53.821 --> 00:25:55.063
And then systems thinking.

00:25:55.223 --> 00:25:56.464
I don't even know the official term.

00:25:57.066 --> 00:25:58.426
My guess is if you can

00:25:58.507 --> 00:25:59.769
understand how two things

00:25:59.808 --> 00:26:00.469
can play together.

00:26:01.532 --> 00:26:02.992
Like we're recording,

00:26:03.012 --> 00:26:04.473
we're doing a live stream right now.

00:26:04.773 --> 00:26:05.693
That's one system.

00:26:05.993 --> 00:26:06.794
Well, when we're done,

00:26:06.874 --> 00:26:07.315
I'm going to get a

00:26:07.335 --> 00:26:08.875
transcript of this episode.

00:26:09.234 --> 00:26:11.355
I can then put that in chat GPT and say,

00:26:11.675 --> 00:26:13.536
what's the best title for

00:26:13.556 --> 00:26:14.856
this episode to get the

00:26:14.916 --> 00:26:17.037
most people to click on it on YouTube?

00:26:17.457 --> 00:26:19.198
So that's using two different systems.

00:26:19.357 --> 00:26:20.137
I might be wrong,

00:26:20.218 --> 00:26:20.738
but that's my

00:26:20.778 --> 00:26:21.618
interpretation of just

00:26:21.638 --> 00:26:22.959
seeing two words together that I know.

00:26:23.538 --> 00:26:23.999
Systems things.

00:26:24.219 --> 00:26:24.959
How do these things play?

00:26:24.979 --> 00:26:25.400
We don't have the

00:26:25.420 --> 00:26:26.519
definitions with these though.

00:26:27.355 --> 00:26:28.115
I'm sure they're there,

00:26:28.395 --> 00:26:29.636
but Jimmy doesn't look at words,

00:26:29.757 --> 00:26:30.798
I look at pictures because

00:26:30.817 --> 00:26:33.400
I'm a big dumb animal.

00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:34.820
Do you bring things like

00:26:34.901 --> 00:26:36.702
this image and this report

00:26:36.762 --> 00:26:38.243
into the classroom with your students?

00:26:39.305 --> 00:26:39.924
Yeah, sometimes.

00:26:41.897 --> 00:26:43.759
What would you wrap up with that?

00:26:44.000 --> 00:26:45.060
How would you wrap up with

00:26:45.080 --> 00:26:46.981
your students after you said, listen,

00:26:47.082 --> 00:26:48.123
I want you, this is, you know,

00:26:48.203 --> 00:26:49.064
extra credit homework,

00:26:49.104 --> 00:26:49.865
or this is something I want

00:26:49.904 --> 00:26:51.205
you to do that's outside the syllabus.

00:26:51.507 --> 00:26:52.406
But it's important because

00:26:52.748 --> 00:26:53.788
you are students in this

00:26:53.848 --> 00:26:55.049
moment right now in history.

00:26:55.770 --> 00:26:56.892
How would you sort of sum up

00:26:57.152 --> 00:26:57.853
why they should pay

00:26:57.873 --> 00:26:59.193
attention to a report like this?

00:27:00.285 --> 00:27:00.484
Well,

00:27:00.944 --> 00:27:03.685
I think because where did we see the

00:27:03.705 --> 00:27:04.846
manual dexterity,

00:27:05.026 --> 00:27:06.166
endurance and precision?

00:27:06.287 --> 00:27:08.207
It was down in the out of focus,

00:27:08.386 --> 00:27:08.866
I believe.

00:27:10.087 --> 00:27:12.448
You know, in a PT, PTA program,

00:27:12.827 --> 00:27:13.308
what do we do?

00:27:14.169 --> 00:27:15.469
We teach them to work with

00:27:15.489 --> 00:27:18.269
their hands the whole time.

00:27:18.869 --> 00:27:20.009
So it's tons of labs.

00:27:20.029 --> 00:27:20.691
They're working with their

00:27:20.711 --> 00:27:21.990
hands over and over and over again.

00:27:22.330 --> 00:27:23.990
So my challenge to them would be,

00:27:24.432 --> 00:27:24.692
all right,

00:27:24.832 --> 00:27:25.852
I want you to look up there at

00:27:26.112 --> 00:27:28.113
that list of core skills in

00:27:28.153 --> 00:27:29.613
twenty twenty or twenty thirty.

00:27:30.184 --> 00:27:31.526
that are expected to increase.

00:27:32.086 --> 00:27:33.887
And what creative things can

00:27:33.928 --> 00:27:35.689
we do to make our lives

00:27:35.828 --> 00:27:39.531
easier in the clinic within that bracket?

00:27:39.551 --> 00:27:40.833
Because we're so focused on

00:27:41.272 --> 00:27:42.294
all of the hands-on and manual.

00:27:42.334 --> 00:27:42.973
And that's fine.

00:27:42.993 --> 00:27:43.775
That's what they're going to

00:27:43.795 --> 00:27:46.155
need to be a good PT and PTA.

00:27:47.176 --> 00:27:48.438
But there's a lot of other

00:27:48.478 --> 00:27:49.479
things that happen in our

00:27:49.519 --> 00:27:51.259
day-to-day job that are the

00:27:51.299 --> 00:27:53.401
things that we don't like, documentation,

00:27:53.942 --> 00:27:55.303
billing, that kind of thing.

00:27:55.851 --> 00:27:56.952
But if you can use systems

00:27:56.992 --> 00:27:59.175
thinking and technological literacy,

00:27:59.916 --> 00:28:01.138
like again, my day job,

00:28:01.179 --> 00:28:03.182
we have an AI scribe and people like,

00:28:03.201 --> 00:28:04.344
I don't know if I'll switch.

00:28:04.523 --> 00:28:05.184
And I just look at these

00:28:05.204 --> 00:28:06.487
people and I don't,

00:28:06.507 --> 00:28:07.888
I do not try to convince anymore.

00:28:08.740 --> 00:28:09.480
I'm just sitting there.

00:28:09.861 --> 00:28:11.320
I'm old enough now to say,

00:28:11.641 --> 00:28:13.041
you do realize that there's

00:28:13.102 --> 00:28:14.863
not a person in three years

00:28:14.883 --> 00:28:15.482
that's not going to be

00:28:15.563 --> 00:28:16.203
using one of these.

00:28:17.044 --> 00:28:17.963
And maybe I'm even wrong in

00:28:18.003 --> 00:28:18.964
terms of saying three years.

00:28:19.204 --> 00:28:20.204
It's probably going to be sooner.

00:28:20.605 --> 00:28:22.066
But these people who are

00:28:22.086 --> 00:28:23.186
going to hang on and be the

00:28:23.247 --> 00:28:25.347
last bastion of writing

00:28:25.407 --> 00:28:26.428
manually because they want

00:28:26.448 --> 00:28:27.669
to prove that they're going

00:28:27.689 --> 00:28:28.729
to do it old school way.

00:28:29.630 --> 00:28:31.351
I mean, I'll date myself again.

00:28:32.608 --> 00:28:34.749
I edited radio commercials

00:28:35.250 --> 00:28:36.509
with a razor blade and

00:28:36.569 --> 00:28:38.230
scotch tape and reel to reel.

00:28:38.269 --> 00:28:38.910
Now I was like,

00:28:39.269 --> 00:28:40.830
that was the very end of that.

00:28:40.891 --> 00:28:42.131
Like immediately while I was

00:28:42.151 --> 00:28:43.250
learning that I was learning digital.

00:28:45.191 --> 00:28:46.151
And I learned it because the

00:28:46.230 --> 00:28:46.991
old guy there said,

00:28:47.132 --> 00:28:48.632
this is the right way to do it.

00:28:48.711 --> 00:28:49.612
And I remember thinking, okay,

00:28:49.652 --> 00:28:50.811
if he says it, I'll do it.

00:28:51.172 --> 00:28:51.813
And then I played with a

00:28:51.873 --> 00:28:52.932
digital editor and I was like,

00:28:53.053 --> 00:28:53.573
I'm gonna need you to

00:28:53.633 --> 00:28:54.932
explain why this is better.

00:28:55.472 --> 00:28:56.353
And it was better because it

00:28:56.373 --> 00:28:57.433
was nostalgic to him.

00:28:57.634 --> 00:28:58.314
And that was the way,

00:28:58.334 --> 00:28:59.114
and he didn't wanna let go

00:28:59.134 --> 00:28:59.713
of that change.

00:29:01.308 --> 00:29:02.490
I know plenty of older

00:29:02.529 --> 00:29:05.251
people who are very adaptable to change.

00:29:05.491 --> 00:29:06.673
This is not an age thing.

00:29:06.813 --> 00:29:08.574
This is a mentality thing.

00:29:09.513 --> 00:29:10.595
This does not be like me

00:29:10.615 --> 00:29:11.756
trying to be anti-ageist,

00:29:11.855 --> 00:29:12.836
which I would like to be.

00:29:13.136 --> 00:29:14.998
But if you're seeing this

00:29:15.117 --> 00:29:17.179
old person not able to adapt,

00:29:17.440 --> 00:29:19.121
it's because they have a crappy mindset.

00:29:19.980 --> 00:29:20.701
These things are not

00:29:21.182 --> 00:29:23.022
correlation and causation.

00:29:23.403 --> 00:29:25.325
And that's fine, too,

00:29:25.365 --> 00:29:26.806
if someone just doesn't want to learn.

00:29:26.846 --> 00:29:27.105
Yeah.

00:29:27.645 --> 00:29:28.026
Yeah, I mean,

00:29:28.105 --> 00:29:29.507
I'll date myself back in

00:29:29.586 --> 00:29:30.446
nineteen ninety nine.

00:29:30.487 --> 00:29:31.587
I was an aide in a physical

00:29:31.627 --> 00:29:32.607
therapy department and I

00:29:32.627 --> 00:29:34.348
would physically call every

00:29:34.388 --> 00:29:36.048
patient to remind them of

00:29:36.068 --> 00:29:38.450
their appointment tomorrow or whatever.

00:29:38.789 --> 00:29:40.250
Well, what happens now?

00:29:40.854 --> 00:29:42.755
You're getting an auto text message.

00:29:43.455 --> 00:29:45.938
We have the ability to do auto, uh,

00:29:46.137 --> 00:29:47.199
AI phone calls now.

00:29:47.358 --> 00:29:48.859
And these are not like pipe dreams.

00:29:48.960 --> 00:29:50.840
These are various accessible to people.

00:29:51.402 --> 00:29:52.722
In fact, if you're not using them,

00:29:52.903 --> 00:29:54.503
I question your ability to

00:29:54.824 --> 00:29:55.765
do the things on the top

00:29:55.805 --> 00:29:56.465
right-hand corner,

00:29:56.905 --> 00:29:58.446
which is systems thinking.

00:29:59.307 --> 00:30:00.648
Resilience and flexibility.

00:30:00.729 --> 00:30:01.730
Like you aren't,

00:30:02.829 --> 00:30:04.270
you aren't taking advantage

00:30:04.310 --> 00:30:05.853
of the tools you're waiting for the,

00:30:06.053 --> 00:30:07.314
for the buoy to come to you

00:30:07.394 --> 00:30:08.433
instead of you being the boat.

00:30:08.453 --> 00:30:08.535
Yeah.

00:30:09.701 --> 00:30:10.721
All right, we're at the half hour mark.

00:30:10.741 --> 00:30:13.585
What's your parting shot?

00:30:14.005 --> 00:30:14.184
Well,

00:30:14.385 --> 00:30:16.548
I guess my parting shot would be just

00:30:16.587 --> 00:30:20.672
to embrace, embrace the change.

00:30:22.012 --> 00:30:24.455
I have been very forward

00:30:24.576 --> 00:30:26.417
that I was fighting some of

00:30:26.458 --> 00:30:27.479
the change myself.

00:30:27.939 --> 00:30:29.760
And now that I have embraced the change,

00:30:30.244 --> 00:30:32.326
I find that it makes my life a lot easier.

00:30:32.686 --> 00:30:34.608
So instead of sitting here

00:30:34.709 --> 00:30:36.029
racking my brain about a

00:30:36.130 --> 00:30:38.751
specific task I have to do, I usually say,

00:30:38.852 --> 00:30:39.853
is that something I can run

00:30:39.893 --> 00:30:41.714
through chat GPT and make

00:30:41.734 --> 00:30:42.996
my life easier and save me

00:30:43.096 --> 00:30:44.557
an hour of time so I can

00:30:44.596 --> 00:30:45.538
move on to something else?

00:30:45.978 --> 00:30:48.539
So if you just learn to look

00:30:48.559 --> 00:30:49.961
at this core skills list in

00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:51.883
twenty thirty and not go, well,

00:30:51.903 --> 00:30:54.164
that stinks, but instead say,

00:30:54.644 --> 00:30:56.586
in what ways can I start to embrace this?

00:30:56.926 --> 00:30:57.647
I think it's going to make

00:30:57.667 --> 00:30:58.848
everybody's lives easier.

00:30:59.413 --> 00:31:00.734
I agree.

00:31:00.994 --> 00:31:01.734
I was going to have a very

00:31:01.775 --> 00:31:03.256
boring parting shot,

00:31:03.276 --> 00:31:04.355
and then you made me think of something.

00:31:05.195 --> 00:31:05.997
Bruce Lee,

00:31:06.356 --> 00:31:07.737
for the younger people in the audience,

00:31:08.037 --> 00:31:09.857
was an actor, martial arts expert,

00:31:10.298 --> 00:31:11.338
left the world a little too soon.

00:31:11.358 --> 00:31:13.299
I do know Bruce Lee.

00:31:13.920 --> 00:31:15.359
Was killed accidentally on a movie set,

00:31:15.400 --> 00:31:15.881
ironically.

00:31:16.560 --> 00:31:17.800
But he had a great quote, which was,

00:31:17.941 --> 00:31:18.602
be water.

00:31:19.201 --> 00:31:20.082
And his whole idea was like,

00:31:20.102 --> 00:31:21.022
you can fight water.

00:31:21.843 --> 00:31:23.625
it's hard like fighting

00:31:23.664 --> 00:31:24.385
through water if you've

00:31:24.405 --> 00:31:25.666
ever tried to swim fighting

00:31:25.707 --> 00:31:26.788
the water do you're gonna

00:31:26.807 --> 00:31:28.931
lose so his his whole idea

00:31:28.951 --> 00:31:29.852
would be water which is

00:31:29.872 --> 00:31:31.532
like work with it right

00:31:31.733 --> 00:31:32.914
understand understand what

00:31:32.954 --> 00:31:33.976
environment you're in if

00:31:34.016 --> 00:31:35.397
it's water and figure out

00:31:35.417 --> 00:31:36.077
how to move through it

00:31:36.638 --> 00:31:37.740
maybe running trying to run

00:31:37.779 --> 00:31:38.941
through water isn't going to work

00:31:39.541 --> 00:31:41.242
But if I get into a good swimming position,

00:31:41.282 --> 00:31:42.423
I can move through water,

00:31:42.463 --> 00:31:43.683
work with the water.

00:31:44.023 --> 00:31:44.865
Work with it.

00:31:44.904 --> 00:31:46.865
The water in this scenario,

00:31:46.905 --> 00:31:47.967
on this chart anyway,

00:31:48.007 --> 00:31:48.926
looking towards the future

00:31:48.967 --> 00:31:50.387
is all the different ways

00:31:50.428 --> 00:31:52.108
the world is turbulent and

00:31:52.148 --> 00:31:53.750
waves are coming and it's changing.

00:31:54.289 --> 00:31:55.069
Yeah.

00:31:55.130 --> 00:31:55.471
I mean,

00:31:55.510 --> 00:31:57.111
have you ever done whitewater rafting?

00:31:57.692 --> 00:31:58.112
I have.

00:31:58.511 --> 00:31:58.912
Yeah.

00:31:58.991 --> 00:31:59.932
And what do they tell you if

00:31:59.972 --> 00:32:00.732
you fall out of the boat?

00:32:00.972 --> 00:32:01.753
Don't stand up.

00:32:02.213 --> 00:32:02.693
Correct.

00:32:02.733 --> 00:32:03.694
You go with the flow.

00:32:04.234 --> 00:32:04.434
Yeah.

00:32:04.515 --> 00:32:04.795
Right.

00:32:04.815 --> 00:32:05.715
So if you stand up,

00:32:06.056 --> 00:32:07.396
you're going to get hurt.

00:32:08.031 --> 00:32:11.273
You're going to get your ass kicked.

00:32:11.294 --> 00:32:11.515
Yeah.

00:32:11.575 --> 00:32:11.775
All right.

00:32:11.795 --> 00:32:13.215
We're back next week, same time,

00:32:13.516 --> 00:32:17.578
but you can take a listen to your podcast,

00:32:17.679 --> 00:32:18.799
PTA Plus Podcast,

00:32:19.259 --> 00:32:20.701
one of the very few focused

00:32:21.021 --> 00:32:22.923
hosted by PT for PTAs.

00:32:24.663 --> 00:32:27.906
And you're also headed to the future of

00:32:29.019 --> 00:32:32.161
Rehab Therapy, F-O-R-T, the APTA event.

00:32:32.181 --> 00:32:35.162
Drew Contreras is spearheading that.

00:32:35.363 --> 00:32:38.403
Future of Rehab Therapy Summit.

00:32:38.483 --> 00:32:39.464
It's a lot to say.

00:32:40.045 --> 00:32:41.246
We'll put the link in the

00:32:41.286 --> 00:32:42.006
show notes for that.

00:32:42.066 --> 00:32:43.527
That's going to be Washington, D.C.

00:32:44.186 --> 00:32:45.347
A lot of these things and

00:32:45.387 --> 00:32:47.148
these skills that are being

00:32:47.189 --> 00:32:48.549
talked about right now will

00:32:48.569 --> 00:32:50.371
be on display in full view.

00:32:51.131 --> 00:32:52.392
