Does anyone have any thoughts on the psychological consequences of keeping pace with this rapid technological growth? Should we take a breather and let things unfold, or should we stay engaged?

I often feel compelled to stay informed because it seems like a golden opportunity. Being knowledgeable about the latest developments and seizing the first-mover advantage could open doors to financial gains.

However, I also believe we are nearing a point where capitalism as we know it may become obsolete, rendering our efforts pointless.

So to summarize, I think the question many of us are asking is: Ten years from now, will we regret not having closely followed and capitalized on these technological advancements? Or, will it ultimately be inconsequential, given the potential for a future of equal opportunity and widespread abundance?

Edit: My gut says 🎵“Turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream.”🎶

I don’t think going inward is a bad idea, but giving up is. There’s potential for this turbulent time to give way to a better world. Why not wait and see what happens and practice in the mean time?

That's the plan for now. The rewards, ability to risk, capacity to adapt and fight shrinks with age.
