Oh Oh I might be speaking to millennials. Well they might get it anyway. We can argue “being” vs “doing” but the goal is to be happy. Thats what our friend Fred Flinstone “is” or is “being”when he shouts “Yabba Dabba Doo”.

Its amazing that our vocabulary is literally worthless when it comes to articulating humanity, happiness, anger and pretty much all of our feelings. Heck what is Love? The fact that people have to write thousands of books to try to define the words that have evolved proves how woefully useless our vocabulary is.

PS I dont want to be your guru. I want you to be your guru. My biggest piece of advice is to study you. Which is literally I cant repeat enough. Write down every day what you did what you ate and how you felt. You must know what makes you happy. You will never know that, no pain associated with when things are good or great, only few moments of ecstasy and all the moments of pain are remembered. Too important to not emphasize.

Short segue, one of my favorite authors is Osho. He never wrote a book because he said if you are following him you are already on the wrong path. (Everything that was written was taken from extemporaneous speeches literal proof to me that his intelligence came from “god knows where”)

Therefore, once again, whatever word works for you is all that matters. If it works for you keep using it.

So the title says it all, whatever it takes to be happy. I am merely your guide provoking you to get out of your “trance” You be you or you do you or be like Fred. Most days we go through life in a manner that can almost be described as a “trance” or even a hypnotic state. In fact AI might not even have to get any better to replicate you perfectly as far as the intelligence you use on a daily basis. If the robots got a little visually better AI could certainly make it through your typical day doing what you typically do and no would even notice.

How sad is that. Again assuming the robot looked exactly like you would anyone notice the difference if the “exact copy of you” went downstairs made coffee, watched CNN or Fox (not doing politics LOL or at least not until I have 100 million followers) Sorry ADD segued again. But then you do your emails. Which by the way AI can do and answer in your style. Feed the animals or the children, or am I being redundant? Oops another cancellation moment. Forgive me.

Then drive to work ( AI can do that). Greet people in the exact same way.. “Hi how are you” Sad to say AI could do that better. AI could be programmed to actually listen to someone and HEAR how they actually are “feeling” in that moment. I am also sure that AI could scan a face and recognize different emotions. Actually I am positive about that, just google the guru that is the expert on lying and facial expressions or any body language expert.

Sadly I have already concluded that AI would probably make a better you than you do. There I go again using the word “do”

The only way you can be a better you is to “be”. Ironically you are a human “being” Is perhaps the only thing our vocabulary got right. You are a “human being” Not a human doing. I had no idea this is where I was going. But it seems magically perfect. I think I have been trying to say exactly this all along once again. Do your day as a human “being” If you are not doing that you are neither a human nor are you being anything.
