I’ve been on a mainframe journey learning JCL, DB2, REXX etc. I just began COBOL.

[liv @JoieDeLiv]

Haven’t done tons of research but if only boomers are in mainframe & COBOL type roles, there will be openings for that in the near future. Talking JCL, DB2, CICS. I’d def be looking into maintenance and modernization for that as a niche

@iamKierraD I had a pretty good Q2. I learned a lot in my new position and passed a course I’ve been working on for months.

ppl are weirdly disciplined about imagining disaster.

but almost never ask:

what if it all turns out better than you ever imagined?

[Zoey @Zoey168102]

Normalize being very direct, very straight to the point and very assertive. A surprising amount of tension in adult life exist because people avoid saying what they actually mean.

You cannot keep thinking only about right now

Longevity has to be your #1 priority when considering your health, finances, faith, etc

Do what is required

This is free advice from an expensive psychologist. If you’re an anxious person, do everything for fun. Go to a job interview for fun. Submit documents for fun. Start a blog for fun. Anxiety feeds on importance. Don’t make everything a matter of life and death.

[Gary Vaynerchuk @garyvee]

The quicker you act on realizing you have to attack life, not let it happen to you, the quicker you enjoy this journey versus wasting it on stress, anxiety, and worry

[Vonn @itsthewealth4me]

If you feel your parents didn’t set you up for life, then do something about it besides just complaining

In most cases you’re only carrying yourself and you have free will

Can’t fix the past, and the future is on you

Make it happen

[Vonn @itsthewealth4me]

If you want to change something generationally, you have to come with a different energy

Never forget that

[Vonn @itsthewealth4me]

Let 2026 be the year you get your confidence back and keep it

Low self esteem can rob you of so many opportunities

Set the intention of a more positive self image this year

[Vonn @itsthewealth4me]

Things I want more people in my community to strive for (if you’ve already done it, then I’m clearly not talking to you):

- 1 degree or trade school certification minimum

- 750 credit score or better as a standard

- $5000 in savings minimum

- $70,000 salary or better

[Vonn @itsthewealth4me]

Nothing in your life can change, if you're ok with staying stagnant and being uncommitted to your improvement

[DB @db2main]

@itsthewealth4me No, not at all.

[Dear Self. @Dearme2_]

Don’t underestimate your ability to make money.

[jonzing. @ehisssss]
