Everything we aspired to for “security”,everything we thought was “safe”,

no longer is.

Markets have crashed.Jobs have disappeared.Industries have been disrupted.

The world is changing

No longer is someone comingto hire you, to invest in your company,

to sign you, to pick you.

It’s on you to makethe most important decision in your life:

CHOOSE YOURSELF

In prior economic busts,America’s technological innovation

has bu�ered the middle class.

�ere are no more booms on the horizon that we can latch onto.

But that period is over

We can no longer a�ord to rely on others and repeat the same mistakes. �e middle class has caved in, and every industry is in

the process of transformation.

Individuals have to transform also

Is this all doom and gloom?Of course not.

It’s the decline of institutions that have lied to us for the past 100-200 years.

It’s actually good news

�e rise of corporatism forced people into cubicles instead of out exploring and

inventing and manifesting.

Human beingsare born pioneers

�e reality is companies don’t need to hire as much anymore because technology has

reached its manifest destiny from the pulp science �ction novels of the 1930s.

It’s a reality that people whoapply the principles in this book

can take advantage of

20%

We’re already seeing more startups than ever get funded and pull business from the corporate

monoliths that have slept for too long. It’s also not just about being a great entrepreneur.

NOT EVERYONE WANTS TO BE ONE

The best way to help societyis to learn how to

improve yourself

When you improve yourself, the lives of those around you bene�t. �at is the way you create positive change in the world.

�e starting point for all of this is developing the inner perspective that allows you to

choose yourself in the first place

Success by itself won’t bring you happiness, because you can’t do any of this from a

position of ill health.

together in the pursuit of true wealth.
