The Rehoboth Strategy: Reclaiming Originality

I read the story of a young woman whose brother returned home empty-handed from the United Kingdom after spending many years there.

I have also seen many young men and women who relocated from the village to Lagos, Abuja, or Ibadan, and within a few years, they began to prosper

We don't bother to customize our journeys anymore. We went commercial and copied what other people are doing to become successful.

Many of us jettisoned the idea of originality several years ago. We bought into trends and fads as a means to become successful in life

From nursing to coding. From Software engineering to Forex trading. From Crypto to Fraud. Many don't bother to ask what will work for me. As long as someone did it and the person made some money, we also jumped in.

This is why victories stop producing lasting results. We exclaimed that we had a breakthrough only to discover that the well we dug could only give us water for a few days

There is a gold mine on the inside of most of us that we have refused to tap into because we were busy looking to profit from the ancient wells dug by others.

Isaac searched for water from the wells of his father, which others had taken over and abandoned. He found water, but the contenders were many. Then he found his own space and dug. This was the birth of Rehoboth.

Even in fashion, music, cinematography, content creation, law, medicine, accounting, and logistics. All fields known to man and mastered by man are being taken over by artificial intelligence.

A question I would probably ask a lawyer and pay him or her a thousand dollars to answer is being answered for free by AI with just one click.

AI is now reading medical diagnoses, doing tax returns, and auditing companies

As smart as AI is, it can only master what has been mastered. It cannot master what has not yet been brought forth in terms of originality, inspiration, and creativity.

When the certificates that you paid heavily for to become chartered, a consultant, or a professor have been made redundant by AI. You will come to the same conclusion. New wells will have to be dug, and the substance of these wells will have to come from the very core of your creativity.

You have been given a rope. You either use it to climb to the top or hang yourself with it.
