As a dancer, I often use my dance education and experiences by associating concepts and find it helps me understand and evolve in the many life challenges and relate to the changing world.
In a world where almost everyone is interfacing with ChatGPT and AI and finding new and improved ways of prompting for application of technology for every day use, I find some relevant associations here with partner dancing and technology.
Dancing & Prompting has a lot in common A dance with a partner is an action and response More than a reaction. Likewise in today’s world every day is a dance with AI and our prompts are nothing but inputs towards an intelligent response than just a reaction. The better the input the better the output. Here I want to share a few thoughts for starters Dancing with a partner is about being in tandem, one leading the way and one following without anticipation Likewise prompting is about giving clear directions without ambiguity. To dance is to set and hold the frame In a good prompt setting the context and format helps to streamline the output.
In a dance the music sets the movements of the dance… And in a prompt sharing the example of what it feels like helps clearer and relevant output.
In a dance a leader can evaluate as you go which steps will work with which partner. Assessing the dance space available helps in evaluating the flow. For there are no second moves… Whatever you do decides the dance flow… And you are free to improvise your self as you go along
Likewise in prompts evaluation helps check what is working and tweaking it gives better quality output.
When a dancer is a professional Dancing a single step may feel fluid but in breaking down the steps it’s easier to understand the flow. In prompting dividing the steps well into multiple steps connected to a certain goal will give desired results.
Be it a dance with partner or with words for AI when you have a clear intention and purpose and are able to communicate what you want and where you want to reach, in easily understable and suitable way not only will you reach your destination You will enjoy the journey!
What do you think you deserve? The answer paves the way To bring it to your life As you intend You believe As you believe You intend You manifest your intentions The universe gives you, As you think and intend, Your thoughts matter Believe well. Think well intend well For it matters more than you know.
A thought in kindness A word of kindness A deed in kindness Count up much more Than you realise Imagine the wealth of joy You will have created In a lifetime.
Every moment creates it’s own energy. It manifests from intentions & the way we feel. For it can change the energy quotient in the Now.
I choose to sense the serendipity,
I envision it’s flow and perhaps a world that WALTZES magically in the serendipity.
I choose to find it in and around me.If I am feeling a little low…
I choose to reimagine the world in hope and intend in positivity.
The energies that surround us, listen to what we say in every second.
I am smiling as I have thought of this now.
I feel light in my heart and though I would love to fly to a million places all at the same time. But this now I have with me. I choose to value it’s infinite possibilities.
And I am grateful for this moment in awareness. Hope to share my heartfelt positivity for this now.
“When a cat falls out of a tree, it lets go of itself. The cat becomes completely relaxed, and lands lightly on the ground. But if a cat were about to fall out of a tree and suddenly make up its mind that it didn’t want to fall, it would become tense and rigid, and would be just a bag of broken bones upon landing. In the same way, it is the philosophy of the Tao that we are all falling off a tree, at every moment of our lives. As a matter of fact, the moment we were born, we were kicked off a precipice, and we are falling, and there is nothing that can stop it. So instead of living in a state of chronic tension, and clinging to all sorts of things that are actually falling with us because the whole world is impermanent, be like a cat.”
I find this quote empowering in days when energy feels blue…
Look up, laugh loud, talk big, keep the color in your cheek and the fire in your eye, adorn your person, maintain your health, your beauty and your animal spirits. William Hazlitt
There is much power in words than we choose to acknowledge and accept
Often when our energies are imbalanced in one way or the other leading to stress, overthinking and despair. It helps to have uplifting words that motivate and inspire as well as balance our thoughts and deeds.
Sharing it with a smile and positivity it brings forth.✨😊✨
To the divine teacher Called Life. Who continues to teach Until the lesson is learnt Who tests us at the most unexpected moments. In the many paths that lead us home Who is the teacher of true meaning of freedom From assumptions & limitations to true liberation To develop our awareness & resilience. To thrive on in this moment from now… Namaste🙏
