Dans mon atelier, je transforme de vieux papiers (genre des factures 😅 ) en des bijoux un peu magiques et poétiques.

"Stop underestimating the future value of your current insight.” - Futurist Jim Carroll
--
Futurist Jim Carroll is writing a series, The Art of the Infinite Pivot, based on 36 lessons from his 36 years as a solo entrepreneur, working as a nomadic worker in the global freelance economy. The series is unfolding here, and at pivot.jimcarroll.com.
--Back in 1989, while I was in the midst of my career crisis that would ultimately see me leave the corporate world and start my own freelance "thing," I obsessed over thinking about what possible value my unique skills might be.
After all, I had gone far from my original professional accounting roots, and was deeply involved in all the merging technology, culturem and opportunities of what was then the emerging Internet. I wasn't on the leading edge - I was somewhere far out ahead of most other people in the world - my skills were so niche, so unique, so narrow that I couldn't think of what possible value they might be to any organization in the world.
Five years later, I had a **#1** national bestselling book, my business was thriving, and I had people begging me to come into their organizations to explain this strange new world - for money.
With all that, I learned a very powerful lesson: one of the hardest things to do in a long-term career is to accurately value what you know. It's still the case for me - when you’ve spent 36 years "putting in the work" (**#16**) and "frequenting the fringes" (**#15**), your intuition becomes so sharp that you often mistake it for common sense.
You assume everyone sees the world the way you do.
They don't.And that might be the most important skill you have - a theme I explore in depth in my upcoming Being Unique book. (It's still in editing!)
In my voyage, I’ve realized that the "Infinite Pivot" isn't just about moving to the next thing. It’s about recognizing the massive value of the distance you’ve already traveled. What takes me five minutes to "see" today took me three decades to learn. What I knew in 1994 that propelled my success forward took me from 1982 to learn.
So what's your value worth? The amateur prices by the hour. The expert prices by the decade.
Own your expertise.
Stop apologizing for your rate.
The value of your insight isn't measured by how long it takes you to say it, but by how much it changes the world for the person who hears it.

Futurist Jim Carroll now realizes that what he knew in 1989 was unbelievably invaluable at the time. It just took him a few years to recognize it.

“Don’t worry about what everyone else is doing. Do what you need to do!” — — Futurist Jim Carroll
I’m in the final stretches of finishing off my Being Unique book, and it has been a project — I’m about 1 1/2 years into it, and in the meantime, released 3 other books! (Embracing Mediocrity, Escaping Mediocrity, and Dancing in the Rain!)
While the work is focused on the urgency of uniqueness as a strategic advantage, I realized I had left out a crucial part of the conversation: the human cost of being different.
Here’s where I am — the first ten chapters are mostly written, and are high-energy. They are the call to action, the blueprint, and the payoff: I cover some inspirational stories of unique people, give you the toolkit for unique thinking, and show you the economic rewards of niche skills in the global market. But what happens after the initial victory? How do you keep your uniqueness intact when the world is constantly pushing you back toward conformity?
You don’t just win the battle against conformity once; you have to fortify your uniqueness every single day.
And trust me, it’s a battle!
One of the first steps is not to worry about what everyone else is doing, what everyone else is telling you to do, what everyone else is giving you advice on.
It’s doing what you need to do.
With that in mind, I’ve decided to add a new chapter, which will be the penultimate chapter of the book: “Sustaining and Fortifying Uniqueness.” This chapter is the emotional and psychological scaffolding that the rest of the strategy rests upon. It transitions from the “how-to” to the “how-to-survive-long-term.”
Stay tuned!
----
Being Unique will mark Jim’s 43rd or 44th book; he plans on going back and checking the math!

It transitions from the “how-to” to the “how-to-survive-long-term.”
And as of today, it seems that the role model that will open the chapter will be… get ready … Lady Gaga! She’s the perfect model for being unique, the power of being unique, and what to do to guard your uniqueness!
The reality of being unique is that it comes with immense pressure, a heavy psychological toll, and difficult relationship dynamics. This new chapter will guide you through the three essential pillars for protecting your unique self
With that, I’m back into the grind of the book — most of the other chapters are already close to done, I need to write this, and then it goes to my wife for the sometimes complex process of editing.
Stay tuned!
