Here are a list of 'evergreen' skills that are not in danger of being phased out/ replaced by robots.

  1. Managing people.
  2. Teaching & Facilitating.
  3. Creativity related work such as art, music and building.
  4. Being able to sell something.
  5. Being able to contextualize difficult information and explain it well.
  6. Tech related skills such as coding.

Of course, if you are looking for more internal development that is not job related, here's another list.

  1. Capitalizing on your failures and making those lessons work for you.
  2. Problem solving.
  3. Discipline, be it reading a book a week or going to the gym.
  4. Learning how to communicate with strangers.
  5. Learning at least 2 languages.
  6. The ability to speed read.
  7. Data gathering and analysis (meaning knowing how to collect information from different sources to formulate your own ideas).
  8. Knowing when to fight on and when to give up.
