Having what it takes
There is this popular trope in movies where the hero is this weak guy who takes on a villain who is 10x stronger than himself, yet either by sheer luck or pure determination, this hero is able to defeat the villain. I think this whole gimmick started with the duel between David and Goliath. Ever since them this has been taken to crazy new heights with countless movies depicting even more unrealistic scenarios.

The world is short-staffed
Depending on where you live, it might be hard for you to tell but the world is short-staffed. You may be in a buzzing city, crowded all the time so it would be difficult for you to believe this but overall, the world is short staffed and it doesn’t matter what industry you are talking about. In this article, I am going to cover the hardest hit industries, but before that, let’s try to understand the “why” first.

What I do to not lose my creative spark
The origin of creativity is in the mind, what you can imagine, you can bring to life. You can’t create something you’ve never imagined or envisioned (unless by accident), so this goes to show you that a lot of the creative process takes place in our mind and what else is in the mind? Memories.

Working with people you disagree with
Being in a closed circle of friends shields us from opposing ideas, our friends are generally people we agree with or who would be willing to go along with our ideas or even convince us otherwise. There are only very few places where we meet opposing points of views, the few I can think of are; at work, siblings or random strangers. This means that we often don’t get to work with people we disagree with, for strangers we only work with them for a limited time, with siblings we have parents to mediate and often go separate ways during disagreements, at the workplace we have a clear hierarchy for decision making. This means that the average person doesn’t know how to work with people they disagree with.

What Will Happen to Humans When AI Takes Over Work?
Before it was a distant dream, but now it is becoming reality faster than we could ever imagine. The time when robots and super smart computers with AI do almost every job better and faster than any human could possibly do. Soon we won’t need drivers, cashiers, doctors, teachers or virtually any other job. The burning question on everyone’s mind is what will happen to humans when AI takes over work?

Fleeting moral integrity
Integrity is the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles. It means doing the right thing even when no one is watching. Basically it means acting according to your values, even under pressure, taking responsibility for your actions and keeping the trust of others by staying true to your word.

Who a person is to begin with
I recently entered into an argument with a long time friend, we argued about politics and on our point of view when it came to global politics happening right now in the world, I’ll spare you the details, the main point was I disagreed with how it was being done meanwhile he agreed.

Are We Selfish — Or Just Survivors of a Broken System?
When you speak to the average person on the streets out there, they’ll tell you all they care about is how to afford their next meal and that of their family. Beyond that they have very little care for others and what they have going on in their lives. At first I thought people were just selfish and maybe somewhat evil but with more reflection I’ve come to understand that they are just victims of a societal system designed to prioritize individuals much more than the collective.

Akatsuki Members as War Justifications
The beauty of anime is really in the details, to some it might just seem as cartoons but for the open minds, there is so much hidden in the details. Here is an interesting twist in the popular anime Naruto you might have missed, for those who might not know the Akatsuki were the main villain group the heroes were fighting against and throughout the series they had to take them down one after the other. The writer of this show didn’t just create a villain group made up of thugs out for violence, he put much more thought into their character than you might have realized.

Understanding a client
One reason why AI will have a hard time taking over humans is that we humans have a hard time expressing what we really want. Even with a sophisticated catalog of words and good communication, it's still hard for us to clearly picture and translate into words what we really want to accomplish. Even when it's the case, even when we do know how to express these things, often times we come to realize that what we wanted, turned out to not be what we actually wanted in the end. It's something very mind-boggling to say the least. My guess is that AI will have to become better at understanding our gibberish or at the very least predicting what we really want, which isn’t really something far-fetched to do.

Ruthless hard work
From my general observation of the people around me and even those far away from me, when I look at what hard work in various context is, it comes out very differently.

You can’t please everyone
By all means when you try to be at peace with everyone and do everything right, you soon realize that you can’t please everyone and its just an impossible task. The main reason being that people have different understanding of the world, when you find yourself in the middle trying to appeal to everybody, you almost always become a hypocrite because you have to change your positions based on the person in front of you. On one end you have people who expect you to move a certain way, and on the other end you have another set of people who expect you to move a certain way, this ultimately leads you to have to make a choice and since you try to appeal to everybody, you find yourself switching your opinions one way or the other.
