Something is happening to the world \u2014 and it\u2019s happening faster than we think.<\/p>\n

I recently attended Singularity University in Palo Alto, and what I learned there genuinely shocked me:<\/p>\n

The power of AI is doubling every 3.3 months.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s break that down.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If something doubles every three months, it becomes 16 times more powerful in one year. In two years, it\u2019s 256 times more powerful. And in five years, thanks to exponential growth, it will become a million times more powerful.<\/p>\n

This changes everything.<\/p>\n

It changes what jobs will exist. It changes how we get paid. It changes where we live. And most importantly, it changes how we set our goals.<\/p>\n

Why I had to rethink my entire approach to goal-setting<\/h2>\n

In a world where billion-dollar companies are being built by teams of less than five\u2026 Where everyone works from wherever they want\u2026 Where working hours collapse from 50 hours a week to 15 or less\u2026<\/p>\n

I had to take a hard look at the way I set goals.<\/p>\n

I realized many of my own goals had become\u2026 obsolete.<\/p>\n

For years, I had goals like:<\/p>\n
