Summary

Spend just a few moments watching a video on social media, and an AI algorithm assumes you like it—then starts feeding you more of the same, for better or worse. Here’s the funniest thing: our reality works exactly the same way. Artificial intelligence isn’t inventing anything new—it’s mimicking how the universe already works. Life responds mathematically and precisely to what we give our attention to. In that sense, our lives can become echo chambers. What we focus on, we get more of. So how hard is it to start a new and improved algorithm that brings you what you really want in life? It’s just as simple as it is online: choose different content. The fastest and most effective way to shift your personal algorithm is through gratitude. When you become genuinely grateful for what you already have, you begin receiving more experiences to be grateful for. Gratitude tunes you into the same frequency as the good you desire. The key is to give your attention to what you truly desire and resist the temptation to give any attention on what you do not desire—because the algorithm (or the universe) will faithfully match it. On today’s episode of Funniest Thing!, Darrell and guest Jeff Spikes share the practical ways they have each started a new and improved algorithm when life wasn’t reflecting what they wanted. Today’s affirmation:“I think a new thought, and the Universe cheerfully responds.” Join the Prospering Patreon Community: www.Patreon.com/FunniestThing
