"It’s harder than they tell you, and more rewarding than you imagine.” - 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.
--Most people want the future to be a smooth, linear progression; their career to follow the same path. And in that context, they want any business or career pivot to feel like a graceful turn on a dance floor.
That will never be the case.
But in my own voyage through several decades of being self-employed - a member of the global freelander economy -I’ve learned that it can often feel like a grueling, uphill climb in a windstorm. Running a business, reinventing your identity, and staying ahead of the curve is significantly harder than the books and the "gurus" ever tell you.
But here is the secret: The struggle is what makes you succeed.
If the path to the future were easy, everyone would be there already. The "difficulty" is actually a protective barrier that weeds out those who aren't fully committed. Throughout my career, the moments that felt the most difficult - the technical failures, the market shifts that wiped out old revenue streams, the long nights in the "lab" (Lesson **#16**) learning new things, were exactly the moments that were building the most value.
After all, hardship is where your expertise is forged.
When you realize that the struggle and difficulty are a mandatory part of the process, you stop trying to avoid it and start trying to master it. There's no doubt that carving out your own path and then pivoting when you need to is way harder than they tell you. It will exhaust you, challenge your certainty, and occasionally make you wonder why you didn't just take a "safe" job.
But the rewards along the way? Incomparable. Overwhelming. Mind-bogglingly satisfying! The freedom of the "Infinite Pivot"?
It’s worth more than you can imagine!---

Deadly #Colorado, #Kansas pileups, fast-moving Plains #wildfires fueled by #DangerousWinds
#BlowingDust created near-zero visibility on I-25 near Pueblo, killing 4 people, while the same powerful #windstorm fueled fast-moving wildfires and triggered additional crashes across the Plains.
By Emilee Speck, AccuWeather staff writer & Brian Lada, AccuWeather meteorologist
Published Feb 17, 2026"Powerful winds kicking up dust across the Plains contributed to multiple fatal crashes and sparked rapidly spreading wildfires on Tuesday as dry grasses fueled fast-moving flames.
"Heavy winds created dangerous 'brown out' conditions along Interstate 25 near Pueblo, Colorado, on the morning of Feb. 17, with a massive multi-vehicle crash happening amid low to near-zero visibility. The Colorado State Patrol responded around 10:02 a.m. MST to the crash on southbound I-25 at milepost 92, just south of Pueblo Boulevard. Preliminary findings indicate more than 30 vehicles were involved, including six semis.
"Authorities have confirmed four fatalities, and 29 people were transported to hospitals, though the extent of their injuries remains unknown."
[...]
"[W]est of Oakley, #Kansas, another multi-vehicle pileup occurred on I-70 during low visibility caused by blowing dust, underscoring the widespread travel hazards created by the powerful windstorm. Winds in the area were gusting around 60 mph at the time the crash was reported.
"In #Oklahoma, a fast-growing wildfire in the Oklahoma panhandle, east of Beaver, quickly spread into Kansas."

I wasn't fast enough to get it on camera but someone's inflatable snowman flew over our backyard & was heading over our next door neighbour's yard.
Emergency sirens are going off & have been steady for over 20 minutes. It's fire & ambulance & police sirens - all 3, at once. Something must have happened, fairly close to our home. -

Well done, Mr. La Forge.
HEY LOCALS!
We're transferring off battery and back to mains power, so expect a couple of minutes of odd behaviour.

It took a matter of hours, in some cases minutes, for a severe windstorm to sprout up and cause death and destruction in downtown Houston and the surrounding region. One year after a derecho blew through town, recovery remains ongoing.
