Making Your Degree Pay!

If you want to quit your job but don’t know what to do instead, start by choosing one kind of work to investigate. Identify what you want to change, notice work you enjoy, and talk with someone already doing it. You can take those steps while you’re still employed.

Here are three questions to help you begin.

What’s something you’d love to get paid to do, but you keep telling yourself it’s too late, too impractical, or just doesn’t fit the career you’ve built?

Maybe you have the salary. You have the title. People depend on you. And there’s still something you’d like to try, even if you aren’t sure what it is.

AI was supposed to save us time. It can write in seconds what once took an hour, summarize a meeting almost instantly, and produce a first draft before we could have gathered the source material ourselves.

Yet many people are not working less. They are producing more, responding faster, supervising more output, and ending the day more exhausted.

The problem is not that AI failed to increase productivity. The problem is that productivity and freedom are not the same thing.
