Quote by Nicky Verd

“Put your future in good hands – your own! Personal disruption means not waiting for the government or your family members to hand something to you. It means rethinking the parameters of your life, and perhaps even of your community, maybe even your country.”

“What happened was this: I got an image in my head that never got out. We see a great many things and can remember a great many things, but that is different. We get very few of the true images in our heads of the kind I am talking about, the kind that become more and more vivid for us as if the passage of the years did not obscure their reality but, year by year, drew off another veil to expose a meaning which we had only dimly surmised at first. Very probably the last veil will not be removed, for there are not enough years, but the brightness of the image increases and our conviction increases that the brightness is meaning, or the legend of meaning, and without the image our lives would be nothing except an old piece of film rolled on a spool and thrown into a desk drawer among the unanswered letters.”

“Robots cannot be injured or killed in the line of work, and can be used in situations far too dangerous for human risk. Robots are more hygienic and deliver a finished product at a fraction of the time it takes a human. Faster output leads to increased sales. No matter how cheap human labour may become, buying highly skilled robotics is still cheaper as one pays only once.”

“Fourth Industrial Revolution has democratized entrepreneurship. The old entrepreneurial model was capital intensive – premises, equipment, brick and mortar stuff. But now there’s opportunity for businesses that can even be run from a smart phone or Internet cafe. Some businesses can be set up in a day or two and with minimum risk and capital. As I mentioned in Part One of my book, titled, Disrupt Yourself Or Be Disrupted. “You can do more today with your life having just an internet connection; and that’s an opportunity our parents and grandparents never had.”
