AI is not going to change the world... You are

Open up to your true essence and create magic

Last week I was listening to a meditation by Joe Dispenza and it occurred to me that we are living in a world where we always want to be better. We want to be richer, more beautiful, healthier, more successful and in the process we focus on having more money to be happier. We think that when money will be there, we will be… Fill in the dots. We focus on manifesting what we think we love to have and forget all about the present moment. Which is actually the only moment you have.

I know this very well, because at times I feel like I am stopping myself from truly living when I see the numbers in my bank account. I stop doing things, waiting for things to get better financially so I can move again. But I know that there is a super power in moving before the money comes. Because you need to get the flow started, to allow money to come flowing in. But when having no money feels overwhelming it can freeze you to do something.

Personally I do not want my life to be driven by money. And at the same time we still cannot live without it. But do you have to keep pushing yourself and stop living until you have enough?

When is enough, enough?

I have learned over the years that in living with less money than I need to live, I become super creative. I have learned to not focus on earning more money, I look at my life and see if I can spend less. For example, presents became gifts that I created with love from things I already had. Sometimes just before a party I didn’t have a gift, but I wanted to bring something for the host. I would go to my bookshelf and started to feel what would be a perfect gift. And every time I did this; the gift was just what my host needed.

I truly believe that we can create a better world if we would take the time to be quiet and feel what we truly need. Because in the silence lie the answers. It will show you what you truly need. It will give you a loving and kind answer to your questions.

Who is more powerful?

Yesterday a friend gave me a prompt for ChatGPT. I had never worked with something like this, so I thought let’s see. It was a prompt that should take me out of my comfort zone and motivate me to become a better entrepreneur. But the only thing it gave me was resistance. Because I don’t think that this is the way to move forward. ChatGPT can make life easier, but there is a downside to it: It takes away your creativity, you lie your hands in a computer, who is not a person. And the craziest thing, you start to rely on this machine and stop thinking yourself.

Taking charge of your creativity

We do not get lost anymore; we have Google. We do not talk anymore, we use ChatGPT as a coach, a psychologist, a mentor. The effect for us humans is that we do not connect anymore, not to ourselves, not to each other, not to the natural world we are living in. We will only be connected to our devices, and we get to feel lonelier every day.

Technology is amazing, but we are human beings, with a body of flesh and blood. There is just a few things that we need in life and we don’t need technology for that. Food, a house, caring people around us and our own creativity.

We are immensely creative and that is what we need these days. We have to allow ourselves to get back to working with our hands, to being creative, to create things and throw them away, to be proud of the mess we made. To start from scratch and see where it ends. Grow your own vegetables, make your own meals, make time to get yourself in nature and connect again with your true essence.

AI does not have the answers; you do, when you start to listen.

You are an immensely creative being and that is why you are here. You will have to own it, you will have to become curious again like you were when you were a little girl or boy. It is a shame that society has decided that kids should behave like grownups, that they have to go to school and be good. Make exams when they are young. Sit quiet, when they just want to play, be curious and discover life on their own.

As I see with my friends’ girls who are not attending school, they are happy, they are free, they explore, they play in the garden and they learn how vegetables grow. They learn to read and do math when they are ready and interested, not when you tell them to do so. They are smart. You do not learn life from books or the internet, you learn by doing. And in the doing you will fail, you will fall, but every time you get up you learn a little more.

So, change is not about becoming better. You are already perfect. Change is welcoming your true essence, be who you truly are and see how your life changes in doing so.
