Lessons for our world in 2050 (my perspective)

Nobody knows what the world will look like in 2050 except that it will be very different from today so the most important things to emphasize in education today are emotional intelligence and mental stability because the one thing Humans will need for sure is the ability to reinvent themselves throughout their lives.

For the first time in history, we don’t know what particular skills to teach young people coz we don’t know what world we will be living in 2050. but Humans need to learn to reinvent themselves, especially in the job market. The greatest problem humans will face is psychological because at least beyond a certain age it’s very difficult for people to reinvent themselves so we kind of need to build identities. if previously, traditionally people built identities like stone houses with a very deep foundation now it makes more sense to build identities like tents that you can fold and move elsewhere because we don’t know where you will have to move, but you will have to move.

So our world in 2050 is going to be very new to us but we must be prepared for whatever utopic or dystopic future we face My best advice is to focus on personal resilience and emotional intelligence.
