Companies cutting significant percentages of their workforce. One of the most shocking ones probably was Elon Musk and Twitter, now X, cutting 80% of the workforce as soon as he gets in there. Company's still doing fine, product is still running, and if you were watching those first months of Elon taking over, the rate at which changes were being made and new things were coming out was pretty impressive. He showed sort of the rest of, you don't need a lot to do a lot, a solid team, manageable size can get a lot done, and in fact probably the larger you get, the slower you must go and the less you can even do, because of all the bureaucracy and sort of process that needs to form to organize that many people to do one thing, makes it almost impossible to do anything. Yeah we saw X fire a bunch of people, they're not the only one, a lot of other tech companies did the same thing, and it is only going to continue in that trend. More and more companies will realize they don't need as many people as they've got, and unfortunately people are expensive, and companies will make the decision to fire lots of people because their number one goal is profitability, revenue, shareholder value, et cetera, and if that's what it takes, that is what they'll do. I think it's worth understanding why companies are making this decision. We've sort of seen, and we always kind of knew, it's a few people that do most of the work, but this is also becoming more pronounced as teams and individuals adopt AI to accelerate parts of their workflow for developers, using co-pilot, cursor, other AI assistance in code writing. My experience and from what I've been hearing just makes people ten times more productive. This is just one area, AI is popping up in more, but I'm not as qualified to talk about them. Even what I'm doing here, creating content, I'll show how this is made, but this video started off as a rambling voice memo, and I used AI to transcribe the voice and the text, more AI to turn this text into a structured outline, talking points that I included, and then again, trend is only going to increase, AI is going to get more powerful, more useful, more capable at what its job is, and further increase the, or further decrease the reliance on more people, so let's not focus too much about that, just know that it's somewhat inevitable, but the only way to deal with that is to take matters into your own hands and plan for those inevitable futures. It can have no effect on you if you've done the work and prepared for a future like the one that we see coming. In the same way that we see companies are realizing how much they can do with less, you can apply that same principle to yourself and what you can do. That leads me to the title of this post, Entrepreneurship is for Everybody. It used to take a lot of money, a lot of people, a lot of time, a lot of energy to start a company, and what I mean by start a company is to really take revenue generation, income generation into your own hands to start that anew, to not be given a paycheck to actually create a paycheck. So that is no longer the case. In the same way AI is accelerating the work that's currently done, new problems can be solved with it, new ideas, new solutions, all manageable by a single person using AI. On top of this, we'll get much more into that because that's kind of our main focus at Oro, but on top of this, just all of the platforms that exist around the greater economy, depending on what your interests and skills and passions are, there's a platform for you to be able to monetize that specific form of content. You make videos. YouTube, TikTok are actually now sustainable ways to earn a living. You create music. Streaming platforms allow pretty much anybody to add their own music and earn from their streams. The barriers to start a podcast are now almost nothing. Use your iPhone, the built-in microphone, iPhone's camera, any sort of space, your living room, and post it to all these platforms and reach millions of people. This is what the greater economy is doing, and more and more people are getting on board. By 2028, the total value created in the greater economy will be 500 billion dollars, a quarter of the United States' GDP. While I'm talking about this and laying out some of the possibilities, you also have to understand that it's not easy. If it was easy, then everyone would do it, and they would already be doing it. It is certainly getting easier, but there's a certain skill set that you need to be a successful entrepreneur. Maybe you're a software engineer or a product developer, but if you want to be in a company now, you have to now think about sales, marketing, growth, pricing, all these things that are outside the product itself. This is something I've had to work with quite a bit, and I'm still learning. You can't just be a one-dimensional, single-focus employee. You are now a multi-dimensional, generalist owner. Eventually, hopefully, you'll hire some people to handle some of the pieces that you don't want to handle or which you're weak at and still learning. But to hire a good employee, you need to recognize what a good employee is, and that's by having a generalist understanding of the topic you're trying to cover. The only piece of advice I have really is to just get started. There's no better way to learn and to expand into those new skill sets than by doing, taking action. You see me here. This video is rough, and I'm still new to it, and I'm still learning, but you can almost guarantee through practice and repetition you're going to get better. But again, practice and repetition means action. You can think about it. You can read about it for as long as you'd like, but that does not get you closer to actually doing it. So the same goes for getting started with entrepreneurship. You don't have to quit your job, raise money, incorporate a company. You can start small, and you can get practice before you make any big jumps. Write your first post on Medium, first newsletter, upload your first data set, share a simple API, create a video, whatever your medium might be. Just start making things, and don't worry about how good it is because it's never going to be good enough. And as soon as you get over that, then you can start getting better. Fail forward is some wise advice I'd once heard. Fail often. Fail early. That's all for this one. Thanks for listening.
