b'Wisdom-Trek / Creating a LegacyWelcome to Day 1398 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to WisdomLife After Covid-19 Part 3 \\u2013 Ask GrampsWisdom - the final frontier to true knowledge.\\xa0Welcome to Wisdom-Trek! Where our mission is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Hello, my friend, I am Guthrie Chamberlain, your captain on our journey to increase Wisdom and Create a Living Legacy.\\xa0Thank you for joining us today as we explore wisdom on our 2nd millennium of podcasts. This is Day 1398 of our Trek and time for our Philosophy Friday series.\\xa0Each Friday, we will ponder some of the fundamental truths and mysteries of life, and how they can impact us in creating our living legacy.\\xa0As we continue on this trek called life, sometimes we have questions about life, so our Friday trek is a time where we can \\u2018Ask Gramps.\\u2019\\xa0\\xa0Gramps will answer questions that you would like to ask your dad or granddad, but for whatever reason, this is not possible.\\xa0No matter how old we are, I know that all of us would like the opportunity to ask dad or gramps questions about life in many areas.


We may mix it up a bit on our Friday episodes, but will strive to keep them down to earth and enjoyable.\\xa0\\xa0If you have any questions that you would like to ask Gramps, please email them to guthrie@wisdom-trek.com (mailto:guthrie@wisdom-trek.com)


Earlier this month, we addressed a question that is too broad to answer in one episode.\\xa0The answer today is the third in a series that will span several weeks, which I will address on our\\xa0\\u2018Ask Gramps\\u2019 episodes the long term economic effects of the pandemic.\\xa0Please make sure that you download our Friday podcast sessions to follow the complete analysis.\\xa0Better yet, subscribe to Wisdom-Trek so you can gain a bit of wisdom five days a week.\\xa0So here is the question:


\\u201cHey, Gramps, I realize that after this whole Covid-19 pandemic is under control, life will take on some sort of normalcy for most people.\\xa0I can\\u2019t get my mind around how life will change with so many people out of work and many businesses not being able to survive.\\xa0What is your take on how life will be after Covid-19?


Life After Covid-19 Part 3Our analysis so far has been overall jobs in manufacturing and Brick-and-Mortar Retail.\\xa0As I mentioned the past couple of weeks, I do not have a crystal ball nor a prophetic message about life after Covid-19.\\xa0\\xa0That being said, I do have over 40 years of business and nearly 64 years of life experience, which helps me to see what others may not.


The core of the content today and in subsequent weeks comes from a book and companion blog written by Peter Diamandis.\\xa0His book, \\u2018The Future is Faster Than You Think,\\u2019 was published in January of this year before Covid-19. Peter has recently also stated that Covid-19 would accelerate his predictions significantly.\\xa0I recommend his book.


Let me once again offer some perspective.\\xa0It has been said that crises don\\u2019t so much alter the course of history as accelerate changes that are already underway.\\xa0\\xa0Exponential technology has been disrupting traditional industries at an ever-increasing pace.\\xa0\\xa0The pandemic has put these changes into hyperspeed. Never have we had the opportunity to rewrite entire sectors, redefine the problems they address, and reinvent their solutions. This is a scary and also exciting time to be alive!\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0Any time we have a disaster such as this, there is also unlimited opportunity.The next economic sector we will explore Restaurant Industry & Future Dining


Impact:\\xa0In the same way that the 2008 economic crisis devastated housing, the pandemic of 2020 is laying waste to the restaurant industry.
