Everyone is a creator, or at the very least, can be. Creators are people who turn nothing into something. And a few decades from now, we’ll live in a world run by creators. These creators won’t be exclusive to writers, TikTokers, and YouTubers, though they’ll be included.

The creators of our future will be people who celebrate and adopt a creator mindset, but go by many different names —

Entrepreneurs are people that find opportunities in the current systems to crank up the heat or pour fuel on the fire. They see gaps other people don’t see — where you can turn 2 into 4, and 4 into 8.

Investors are meditators of the moment seeking out compounding returns. They work to see the world the way it is, and make bets based on probabilistic extensions of their worldview.

Hackers are people who question the rules obsessively. They could be drug dealers or mobsters, but the cool thing for them to do now is just code a site, build a bot, or scrape a bunch of data. They break things down so they can become better.

Coaches are people who get the best out of others on the path to a particular goal. They orchestrate strategies and call the plays. We typically call them “managers.”
