“FOMO” is fading. “FOBO” (Fear of Becoming Obsolete) is rising. A Gallup survey shows 22% of U.S. workers fear becoming obsolete, with younger employees feeling it most. As AI accelerates change, confidence is taking a hit. Leaders who invest in skills and clarity can shift fear into growth. How are you future-proofing your career?

Just think. Just 4 years ago LinkedIn Warriors were saying how they would never return to the office. The power was all in their hands. Reality always humbles you.

I'm future proofing my career by keeping as many side gigs going as I can.
