As little as 20 years ago being picked was done by gatekeepers of every sector. Being picked authorized you to do specific work, belong to specific tribes, fit certain roles, and be glorified. Today gatekeepers are still present but they have lost almost all their powers. If you want to be an educator who advises the nation pick yourself to do it. Then do it. Parents will listen as well as other stakeholders, the school classroom is only one place where education takes place. It is not the only place for education to take place. If you want to write a book, write your book and self-publish it. You don’t need to be picked by the BIG publishing companies and more just choose yourself and put in the work. The idea of picking yourself is available now because communication is so easy, we are just one click away from each other. Who and what you like is accessible now. We are just one click away from our tribes Raise your hands, show your work, keep doing the work and participate in the world.
You don’t need permission.
Just pick yourself.
