Hashem Al-Ghaili is a person I've been following for a few years because of his knowledge on future society. Now he has made his own TV show "2070 Edge of Science" where he takes us deeper into the field. Sign up and you'll receive the first episode.

If you have The Nathional Geographic channel you are extremely lucky. Year Million just started airing and I'm dying to watch it. If anyone of you know how I can watch it without being in the US let me know!

Another must watch show is Jason Silva's new TV series on Nathional Geographic called "Origin". Jason Silva is a futurist, public speaker and filmmaker. I first started to follow him when I came across his YouTube Channel "Shots of Awe".
Check the TV-series out here

There is also another channel you definitely should check out and it is Curiosity Stream which Michiu Kaku is behind. It discuss all of the interesting things happening in science.

If you haven't checked out Black Mirror yet, you definitely should. It's fiction but it's not to far away from whats to become our reality.

Foundational Inspiration

I’d like to share with you some content I love going back to whenever I feel stuck, unfocused or frustrated. Perhaps you might find some inspiration in my motivational resources too. I’m sure many of you are familiar with this already.

Listening to podcasts, books or videos from Tim Ferriss, Oprah, Larry King, Richard Branson, Elon Musk and Gary Vaynerchuck is always a safe bet - these people reminds me of who I am and where I want to be therefore easily put me back on track. Two books I always have in mind are “Start with Why” by Simon Sinek and “Essentialism” by Greg McKeown

But below are two videos that never goes out of date and has been essential to me start going after what I really want.

Video nr 1 Casey Video “You Can’t”

This video is for everybody that has been told that “they couldn’t do something just because.” I grew up in an environment where doing what I truly wanted as a grown up never seemed like an option. I was filled up with doubt in the life of becoming an adolescence cause I though I had to settle down with a life I didn’t wanted and that the only possibilities were either becoming a doctor, nurse, lawyer, journalist or teacher or firefighter or policeman. I had no one to look to for inspiration. Being an entrepreneur was an unfamiliar concept. No one once mentioned to me that I actually can create my reality, I can make my life just the way I want it. But deep within I knew that there had to be more, I wanted to be my own brand. I wanted to create a life around me and my passion but I didn’t know how. And it took me 29 years to figure it and dare going for it. I wonder what would happen if someone at a young age presented to me the concept of entrepreneurship. Anyhow, watch this and be inspired.
