Words That Didn't Exist Before: Part 2
In a previous post, I discuss certain jargon that were probably have not existed a generation or more ago. There are words that have different meaning. I just have discovered more words during my readings and research since I am a lifelong learner.
1. Monetize: If you want to earn revenue your business and/or assets then you need to monetize. You could. Entrepreneurial You by Dorie Clark discusses how you can monetize with different income streams.
2. Micro Job: I have been doing Amazon Mechanical Turk or mturk.com for over two years. I performed various small jobs the pay from a few cents to a few dollars. There are other websites like this such as fiverr.com and Upwork.com are examples that micro jobs can be found on your local community
3. New Normal: When something that was considered to be abnormal becomes commonplace it is known as the new normal. Peter Hissen's The New Normal: Explore The Limits of The Digital World talks about how the digital world we live in opens up full of possibilities.
5. Location Independent: This word is synonymous with the term digital nomad. It is an increasing trend where you could work without having to going to a building.
6. New Economy: If an economy changes from being based on manufacturing to being based on service then welcome to the new economy.
7. Digital Economy: The digital age that we are now living in has ushered in a digital economy. This economy is also know as the Internet economy, new economy and/or web economy.
8. Coding: This term has different definitions. But in the 21st century coding is a computer language that has become a 21st century job skill. Coding is used in the building of websites and other computer programs. If you are having some troubling with coding, I would recommend that you read Coding All-In-One For Dummies.
9. E-Commerce: A business that is conducted electronically on the Internet is known e-commerce. Amazon and Shopify are two of the many examples of e-commerce. There are four types of models of e-commerce: B2C (Business to Consumer), B2B (Business to Business), C2C (Consumer to Consumer), and C2B (Consumer to Business).
10. Lifelong Learner: A person who is on a self-motivated pursuit of knowledge to better themselves either personally or professionally is described as a lifelong learner. No matter what we must never stop learning.
10. Future of Work. Jobs and industries are being transformed because of technology. This is known as the future of work. Work is not like it was generation or more ago. Jobs, careers and industries do come in go.
If I find more words you and I have that have not existed before, I will make another post about that. It is essential that we learn these words because we are living in a world that is changing in an accelerating rate.
