Digital Age Innovators

The Digital Age is an extraordinary time.

It has been a time of great technical innovation.  

While many people have helped in the digital innovation, a select few have made the most impact.

Maybe you have heard about the Industrial Age Innovators?  Andrew Carnegie, Henry Ford, John D. Rockefeller, J.P. Morgan and Cornellius Vanderbilt.

Here are my pick for the top five innovators in the Digital Age:

Steve Jobs

The founder of Apple and the Father of the smartphone, Steve Jobs was always out in front of the digital tech race.  

Larry Page/Sergey Brin(Founders of Google)

Without Larry Page and Sergey Brin, we wouldn't  have the phrase "GTS",(Google That Sh*@T), or be able to respond with, "I don't know, just Google it."

The internet lives on Google.

Elon Musk

Elon wants to simply change the world and humnanity.  So far he has done that.  Elon's entrepreneurial genius helped start widely known companies,  PayPal, Tesla, and SpaceX.

Jeff Bezos

The founder and CEO of the online giant, Amazon, Jeff Bezos has built a digital empire.  

Mark Zuckerberg

Starting in a Harvard dorm room, Mark Zuckerberg started Facebook, which changed the internet forever.  Facebook has formed a tight online community and a digital escape.   Facebook also started a social media revolution, with Twitter, Instagram, Youtube, Twitter, and Reddit starting after.

Who are your top Digital Age Innovators?

Could you imagine a world without a smartphone or Google?

Now is the best time for Entrepreneurs.  Ingenuity and Digital Technology are meeting head on.

Pat Flynn, went from Architect to Blogger/Author/Podcaster/Entrepreneur.

The same could happen for you.

I work full time in Corporate America, but on the side, I am using my creativity to build a foundation.  It also keeps me sane.

My dream is pursuing my passions full time.

Investing, content creation(blogging, writing books, graphic design), and software are my potential income generating passions in life.

Then there's Jesus and my family.

Using investing, content creation and software development to create income, will allow me to spend more time with Jesus and my family.  The two most important things in my life.

While you are working your 9-5, what do you dream of doing one day?

It starts with a creative list.

You may work to 9-5. But you have lunch, time before work and time after.  Make a list for that time.

Whether you are A type or B type.  Architect or Graphic Designer.  First responder or Military; the creative opportunities are endless in the digital age.

Take your creative skill, and put it to work.

Make a creative list.
