I have five pieces of advice for my daughters. My first rule is: Always think like an immigrant<\/span>, because we\u2019re all new immigrants to the age of accelerations.<\/p>\n

Second, always think like an artisan<\/span>. Always do your job in a way that you bring so much empathy to it, so much unique, personal value-add that it cannot be automated, digitized, or outsourced, and you want to carve your initials into it at the end of the day.<\/p>\n

Third, always be in beta<\/span>. Always think of yourself as if you need to be re-engineered, retooled, relearned, and retaught constantly. Never think of yourself as finished\u2014otherwise, you really will be finished.<\/p>\n

Fourth, always remember that PQ (passion quotient) plus CQ (curiosity quotient) is greater than IQ (intelligence quotient)<\/span>. Give me a young person with a high PQ and a high CQ, and I will take that person over a kid with a high IQ seven days a week.<\/p>\n

And last, whatever you do, whether you\u2019re in the public sector or the private sector, whether you\u2019re on the front lines or a manager, always think entrepreneurially. Always think, \u201cWhere can I fork off and start a new company over here, a new business over there?\u201d<\/span> Because a huge manufacturing company is not coming to your town with a 25,000-person factory. That factory is now 2,500 robots and 500 people. So we need three people starting jobs for six; six people starting jobs for 12; 12 people starting jobs for 20. That\u2019s how we\u2019re going to get all those jobs. We need everyone thinking entrepreneurially.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
