YesterdayRESKILLING: NO SILVER BULLET
BBC explains Why reskilling won’t always guarantee you a new job. While the data suggest it’s not a working economic policy for employees and low-wage workers, it is also quite a risky strategy for freelancers pushing into a few in-demand skills.
“When they [Marcela Escobari at the Brookings Institution] studied real-world job transitions, they found most didn’t require retraining. It was more about picking the right industry to move into, either because their existing skills were a good match or demand was high in their area.”
SANDWORM
If you are a freelance IT expert working in development, networking, security, administration or support, Sandworm is a highly recommended book to read.

It’s an engaging book about a future that is inevitable because it is partially already here, but rarely written about. If you read it, it will undoubtedly raise your awareness of broader IT security concerns — or at least make you way more suspicious of any email attachments :)
