I'd even say get rid of 10% of your stuff. Your life would transform. The weight comes off you because you feel less of a mental heaviness being burdened by things that don't add any value to your life. They clutter you from using the things that have meaning. you will feel more relaxed because that's the secret about simplicity, which is simplicity is not about organizing.

It is about focusing on what matters and it is about being able to use more of what matters. That includes your time. The other thing is it is a You see it in yourself and you see it at work. It impacts the culture because people feel more valued. They're spending their time on things that they feel are worth it. It is a mental health imperative. People feel less stressed. They feel more focused.

They feel happier when things are simplified. And that's important for us as people and as leaders to know as well.

I think it has never been more important for us to build human skills because AI will be able to do lots of tasks for us. But what it can't do are the things that, yet, the things that are inherently human. Being curious, right? Asking the right question, right, with prompts. AI can give you lots of answers, but you have to know how to ask good questions. Being very creative.

AI, I'm a writer, and I put things into AI all the time, into ChatGPT or into Gemini. And it gets you a good start and it can organize my thinking, but I'm a better writer. I'm more human. I can connect on a meaning level. It also isn't good with humor or play on words. those little nuances that only humans can relate to.

So I think teaching those kinds of skills that are creative, curious, agility, empathy, those are really great skills that AI can't give you yet. And I think it's never been more important to teach those as part of leaders at every level. I hope that companies start to shift towards that. There's too much depth in technical skills and not enough in human skills.

We've got a good approach, I'll say, because this is what we do. We help people be future ready, that's what we like to say, by teaching these human-centered skills or what we call power skills. They used to be called soft skills, right? I think that's a passe term now, you know, because they're not soft makes them seem weak.

And actually, I believe these human-centered skills are what make you stronger. That's important to know. And they are less skill. They are skills, but they're more mindsets, to your point. Having an agility mindset, a resilience approach, a curiosity mindset. Those are different than having an AI skill because they're how you approach certain things.

We teach people by there's the reason why they're important. We first have people the why. And then we actually give people techniques to do it and we we apply it to work. That's how you use these skills.

So, for example, if you want people to be curious, we teach them the technique around asking killer questions and killer questions is about how do you learn how to ask really good open ended questions that are provocative, creative and really make you think. And there's certain ways to stem a question and then we apply it to work.
