In a world where AI can outpace your to-do list, the real danger isn’t the machines—it’s staying stuck in your comfort zone. Ask yourself honestly: would you hire you today? If the answer feels uncomfortable, it’s time to level up.

Customer service isn’t about treating your clients like morons or worshipping them as gods. It’s about being competent enough to identify their real problem—and solving it without the drama. That’s it. That’s the secret.
