All this worry and stress over what's "gonna" happen or what's "already" happened... how about what's happening today?? The world always changes .. we can't control that. What you "can" control is doing what you love, building your skills and staying focused on "right now."

Ninety percent of the conversations in advertising land is about how it used to be or AI is coming Nobody pays attention to today and today is the only thing that matters. A million things are going to change. Television as we know it is dying in front of our faces. It's all going to be streaming connective.

TV AI is going to accelerate at scale over the next 10 years and take away a lot of the things that a lot of us do every day so that we can do better things. Everyone's like they're going to take our jobs, nothing's going to take your job if you're willing to adjust and do something that's more valuable. Tractors took people's jobs away, people left farms and did other things like there'll be plenty to do and begin to think about five or ten years from now. I'm just desperate to get this office to care about today.

The problem with the industry is we completely romance yesterday. Everybody loves everything that happened in the past and we are incredibly romantic about the future.

    How are you going to adjust for the future if you’re only focused on today?
