“The feeling of lagging behind the competition is a strong force. It can lead to a lot of anxiety and fear, driving leaders to take action and try to build something completely new — even if it means pushing the boundaries of their own innovation capabilities. When it comes to AI, however, it's crucial not to succumb to this technological FOMO.

On the other-hand, the relaxed but aware mind has the natural ability to face and overcome the problems of life with awareness and efficiency.”
