You'll Kill Yourself when You Think AI Can Do Everything For You

The Lie Behind “AI Can Do Everything for You”

Every day, social media is flooded with impressive claims:
“AI writes in one minute what used to take a week.”
“AI designs, analyzes, and even makes decisions faster than any human.”
“Use AI or be replaced by it.”

At first glance, it sounds smart. Efficient. Even inevitable.

But there’s a dangerous flaw in this thinking.
It’s not that AI can do everything.
It’s that you stop doing anything.

When You Stop Thinking, You Start Disappearing

If you blindly follow what AI produces, without thinking, without reflecting, without questioning, 
you slowly surrender your uniqueness.
Your identity dissolves into machine-made content.

That’s how people become swayed by influencers.
That’s how society becomes manipulated by narratives.
That’s how we lose ourselves—not because of AI,
but because we forget to think, feel, or question at all.

It’s Okay to Not Use AI for Everything

There’s nothing wrong with writing a speech yourself.
There’s nothing wrong with drawing, learning, coding, or solving a problem without AI.
In fact, that effort is precious. It sharpens your mind, builds your creativity, and gives you joy.

The danger isn't avoiding AI.
The danger is worshiping AI as if it’s infallible and thinking it makes you better by default.

Let AI Help You, but Never Replace You

Use AI to support your work.
Let it speed up the mechanical parts.
But you must still think, dream, decide.

It’s okay to make mistakes.
But never make the mistake of letting AI do all the thinking for you.

That’s when you stop growing.
That’s when AI really replaces you—because you've stopped being you.

Summary: 

Use AI wisely.
But never forget to use your own mind.
Because when your thinking fades, your future fades too.

How I Became a Fortune Teller: Leveraging NLP, Fear and Greed, and Motivational Theories

Becoming a fortune teller wasn’t part of my childhood dreams. It started as an experiment, fueled by my curiosity about human behavior and the subtle forces that drive our decisions. Over time, what began as a study of psychology and human interaction evolved into an unexpected career—one where I use the tools of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), the primal drivers of fear and greed, and motivational theories to help people uncover their paths. The First Step: Understanding the Human Psyche I was always fascinated by why people do what they do. During my university years, I studied psychology, particularly the works of Abraham Maslow, B.F. Skinner, and Victor Vroom. Their theories provided insights into motivation, reinforcement, and decision-making. But I wanted to move beyond the academic realm and see how these theories worked in real life. Around this time, I discovered NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). This framework for understanding communication and behavior is based on the...

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp.  Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?"  All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot...
