Do you ever wake up feeling “meh”?
I think it happens to everyone but how do you get back on track?
Will a cup of coffee help? (Maybe, but only for about ten minutes.)
How about a glass of wine? (Dude, it’s Tuesday!)
What about hiring a life coach? (Perhaps. But everyone and their granddaughter is a “life coach” these days. And the last one to approach me was still in high school. 🙄)
So yesterday I decided to try out the latest and greatest internet toy: ChatGPT.
Thinking that it could be a cheaper alternative to hiring a life coach, I went online and entered the following prompt:
How do I go from meh to yeah by regaining my passion and sense of purpose?
Here’s what I got back:
Join a cult. Cults are known for their intense sense of community and purpose. Sure, you might have to give up all your possessions and follow a charismatic leader but think of all the free Kool-Aid you’ll get to drink!
And now I just want to share a bottle of wine with AI and solve the world’s problems.

I have not tried any of the AI’s yet. I should. I’m so happy I wasn’t drinking something when I read your post. Join a cult. I’ll have to remember that the next time I feel meh, which will probably be Thursday when I have to wake up early to go to the dentist.
Good Gravy! All righty, then. Wine, it is…
