♣ Thought of the Week
◘ You’ll find that respecting yourself comes right from these three things; plus, they don’t just make people like you more.
♣ Tech
◘ Actually, everything is a wrapper…
A lot of people wrongly assume that a “wrapper”, something built on top of an existing tool is somehow less valuable. This way of thinking often comes from how we’re traditionally taught, which doesn’t always show the real-world tech and business picture.
This video is all about fixing that broken mindset. You a’re going to dive into what “wrappers” really are, highlight the good they do, and explain why they’re actually a huge driver of real innovation.
Plus, let’sl talk about where this messed-up idea comes from, give you tips on how to ditch it, and outline the key skills you’ll need to seriously succeed in the coming post-AI world.
♣ Creator Economy
◘ Do you really need to take 10,000 steps a day?
Jean Béliveau spent years literally walking from country to country, all because he wanted to walk around the entire world! While that’s a huge undertaking, studies consistently show that just boosting your daily steps, even a little, can really improve your health. So, in this video, Shannon Odell dives into the big question: what exactly happens to your body when you decide to step things up?
♣ Pop Culture
◘ Gerard Butler’s Gravity-Defying Career
Gerard Butler, the super versatile Scottish actor, has absolutely crushed it across tons of different genres in his dynamic career. He totally blew up and got massive recognition after his powerful role as King Leonidas in 300, giving us that iconic, unforgettable line, “This is Sparta!”
Butler really proves his range, taking on everything from the mysterious Phantom in The Phantom of the Opera to the charming leading man in romantic comedies like P.S. I Love You and The Ugly Truth.
He’s also a certified action star, thanks to his relentless Secret Service agent Mike Banning in Olympus Has Fallen and its successful sequels. Plus, he delivers intense performances in films like Law Abiding Citizen, (which is my top favorite Butler film) where he plays a vengeful mastermind, and intense disaster epics like Geostorm and Greenland, facing some wild, catastrophic challenges.
This video dive in and show the most significant films in Gerard Butler’s awesome career.
♣ Business
◘ The Billionaire Behind Everything
Larry Ellison and Oracle: Shaping a Tech Giant from challenging Microsoft’s PC dominance to leading the charge in the AI revolution and cloud computing. Ellison’s vision has positioned Oracle at the forefront of building a formidable AI empire.
I think he is one of the most powerful Billionaire we totally miss out. This video nicely put it here, he is also behind the new US TikTok deal, most of you don’t know!
