Imagine this scenario:
You’re enjoying a relaxing vacation, strolling along a quiet beach as the sun sets. The whole beach is yours – a lucky find. As the sun’s warm light fades, you take pictures until your phone unexpectedly turns off.
With twilight settling in, you begin to walk back along the shore, feeling the gentle waves washing over your feet. Then, something strange happens – a bright light appears on the beach, about 100 meters away. Curiosity takes over, and you decide to investigate.
As you get closer…
A futuristic-looking object comes into view, like something out of a sci-fi movie set in the distant future. You can’t help but wonder what it is. You reach for your phone to capture this extraordinary sight, but the battery is dead.
What a bummer.
You can’t tear your eyes away from this cool-looking craft. It’s like nothing you’ve seen before, with its unique design resembling the infinity sign, ∞.
Curious and confused, you watch as a part of the craft lights up, catching your attention.
And then, a hologram of Halle Berry appears, speaking to you:
“Hello! You’ve been chosen for an incredible opportunity. You’re about to receive a super-powerful device, even more advanced than today’s best quantum computers. It’s a supercomputer with limitless abilities.”
You’re intrigued. But there’s a catch.
“You’ll need to use it for the rest of your life,” Halle explains with a smile. “And here’s the twist – it’s unhackable, and nobody will know you have it unless you choose to tell them. So, are you up for it?”
You’re game.
A door on the side of the craft opens, revealing a comfortable seat.
“Take a seat,” instructs the holographic Halle Berry.
As you sit down, the chair’s comfort surrounds you, giving you a soothing massage.
Your curiosity won’t let up. “What is this ‘computer’? How does it work? And how will I get it?”
Future Halle Berry shows you an image: the human brain.
You’re skeptical. “You’re not going to mess with my brain, are you?”
“Don’t worry,” she reassures you. “Your essence will stay the same. Let me show you through this short video.” She hands you stylish sunglasses with pink lenses.
When you put them on, a vivid video begins. It’s not just watching – you’re right there in the video.
The explanation starts: “You have the ultimate technology – the Brain, a super-smart computer. It shapes your reality, making your experiences and life happen. It’s like a simulation that starts when you’re born and ends when you pass away.”
Imagine it as a massive video game world with huge maps. But the game only generates what’s right in front of you. Similarly, your brain creates what you see (yes, your eyes are part of your brain).
Your brain predicts things by remembering the past. To change your life, you need to change what you’re feeding your brain. That means changing your surroundings, what you do, what you eat, what you read, what you watch, what you talk about, and what you ask questions about.
Your brain’s really smart. It automates things you do all the time so you don’t waste energy. It even speeds up time because of this efficiency.
Your brain is super powerful, but it’s influenced by what you believe – both things you know and things you don’t realize you know. It’s like you’re installing an app on your computer – consciously or someone else is doing it for you unconsciously.
There are more than 8 billion players (people) on Earth, and each has their own brain supercomputer. Each person’s reality is different, offering unique experiences. Everyone is part of this grand game, with each having special abilities.
Here’s the twist – you don’t know your own powers, making it exciting to discover as you play.
Being effective means knowing yourself – your likes, dislikes, where you’re happy, and the kind of people you need around.
In video games, you choose a character based on their skills. Here, figuring yourself out is more complex. But there’s no end to learning about yourself, which is pretty cool.
You can also change how you look on the outside – your hairstyle, clothes, even your height if you’re quick enough.
And so, the adventure continues…
Unveiling the Power Within
This story may be futuristic, but it’s a metaphor, inviting you to see your own creative power. Just like the Brain in the story creates reality, your thoughts, beliefs, and actions shape your life.
Think of this as an invitation to explore your potential, to embrace your curiosity, and to unleash your amazing abilities. Just like in the story, your life is like a blank canvas waiting for your artistic touches.
Realize your power to shape your life, painting it with your choices, thoughts, and feelings. As you journey through this discovery, remember – you are the artist, the builder, and the creator of your own unique story.
Jay Bialecki – You are awesome!
