Hello All,
I think we are past the conversation that the future of learning and living will change,
It has changed already.
Young people don’t want to do 9 to 5,
they are skipping college,
they want to work on their interests.
But how are we empowering young people to learn freely,
that’s the main question.
Is a school with an old syllabus enough?
Have colleges evolved?
More and more people prefer remote work,
they want to build their dreams on skills they are ready to learn.
This means that the traditional way of learning or
getting degrees will not be enough.
So are we empowering young learners?
What are we going to do differently?
Rise of self-learners
We will never know what one skill will be relevant tomorrow.
But we know that everything is evolving at a swift rate,
This means we all need the skills to learn, fail, and upskill.
We all are required to become self-learners,
we need to think critically,
we need to find our answers,
and we need to have the skill to self-learn.
Guiding my son to be a self-learner, I understand how important it is to have
goals,
mentorship,
community.
Check out this channel to see Adi’s creations.
We are creating this program to empower self-learners.

Instead of giving in to frustration, he partnered with a like-minded teen, Cameron Zoub, to develop a bot to buy limited-edition sneakers before they sold out.
This initial spark of entrepreneurship set the stage for an impressive journey that would lead him to co-found Whop, a digital marketplace valued at around a quarter of a billion dollars.
