Top 3 Takeaways

1. 
   

   Act Entrepreneurially—Even in a Job: Find problems no one else is fixing, deliver unexpected value, and make yourself indispensable.

   
   


2. 
   

   Play the Long Game: Short‑term “step‑backs” in pay or title can massively expand your future market value if they build new capabilities.

   
   


3. 
   

   Design for Freedom: If your work is location‑agnostic, challenge assumptions about where and how you “must” live to be successful.
