You're a god, act like one!

My POV; you are a god. We all are! We just haven’t embodied that! You possess the power of a god — capable of shaping reality, inspiring change, and manifesting your deepest dreams. Yep, I just said that. But, let’s look at it in depth. Deep within you, resides an immense, untapped reservoir of potential, creativity, and power — the inherent capacity to shape the world, to manifest dreams. Whenever you look back and question your achievements and be like ‘naw man, I could do better…’ remember that this feeling is your ‘godly’ manifestation and is often overlooked, shrouded by self-doubt and societal constraints. The call to awaken this divine potential is not new; it echoes through the ages in religious texts, philosophical writings, and the wisdom of spiritual teachers. Not Blasphemous Jesus quotes the Psalms, and he says, I said, “You are gods, sons of the Most High, all of you; nevertheless, like men you shall die, and fall like any prince. (Psalm 82:6–7) The notion that humans possess god-like qualities is not blasphemous but rather a testament to the profound truth of our existence. In the Bible, it is written, “So God created man in his image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them” (Genesis 1:27). This verse underscores the idea that we are reflections of the divine, endowed with the ability to create, to love, and to bring forth beauty and order from chaos. Similarly, the Quran states; — “And He taught Adam the names — all of them. Then He showed them to the angels and said, ‘Inform Me of the names of these if you are truthful’” (Ayah al-Baqarah (The Cow) This passage highlights the unique knowledge and potential bestowed upon humanity by the Creator. Yet, despite these profound insights, many of us live our lives confined by limitations, often imposed by ourselves or external forces. We hesitate to pursue our dreams, to speak our truths, or to challenge the status quo. Simply put — you are an all-knowing, all-powerful, loving, all-everything deity — in sleep mode. So yes. Back off with the blasphemy yap. The call to “act like a god” is not a call to arrogance or hubris but to a higher standard of living, one that aligns with the virtues of compassion, wisdom, and creativity. It is an invitation to rise above mediocrity, to harness our inner power, and to make a positive impact on the world. Consider the vast potential within you. Each thought, each decision, and each action has the power to create ripples that extend far beyond your immediate environment. Your words can inspire, your ideas can innovate, and your kindness can heal. You possess the ability to shape reality, not just for yourself but for others as well. This is the essence of divinity within you — a creative force that can bring about profound change. However, to act like a god requires a shift in consciousness. It demands that we let go of fear and embrace faith — in ourselves and the inherent goodness of the universe. It calls for a deep connection with our inner selves, where our true power resides. This connection is often cultivated through practices such as meditation, prayer, and reflection. By quieting the noise of the external world, we can tune into the divine wisdom within us. The Bible teaches us, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13). This verse is a powerful affirmation of our potential when we align with the divine source of strength and wisdom. Similarly, the Quran emphasizes, “Indeed, Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves” (Quran 13:11). This highlights the importance of self-transformation as the key to manifesting our god-like potential. Still, doubt it? Acting like a god also means embracing responsibility. With great power comes great responsibility. As co-creators of our reality, we must be mindful of our actions and their consequences. As a writer, I embody this godly touch and through it, I reflect the godly values. So could you. Ideally, your choices must reflect the values of love, justice, and compassion. This responsibility extends to how you treat YOURSELF and others, how you care for the environment, and how you contribute to the greater good. Moreover, recognizing our divinity compels us to uplift others. A true god-like existence is not solitary; it is interconnected and interdependent. Our actions should inspire and empower those around us. By acknowledging and nurturing the divine spark in others, we create a ripple effect of positive change. In the Bhagavad Gita, another sacred text, Lord Krishna advises, “You have the right to perform your prescribed duties, but you are not entitled to the fruits of your actions. Never consider yourself to be the cause of the results of your activities, nor be attached to inaction” (Bhagavad Gita 2:47). This teaches us to act with detachment, focusing on the righteousness of our actions rather than the outcomes. By doing so,

You possess the power of a god — capable of shaping reality, inspiring change, and manifesting your deepest dreams.

Yep, I just said that. But, let’s look at it in depth.

Deep within you, resides an immense, untapped reservoir of potential, creativity, and power — the inherent capacity to shape the world, to manifest dreams. Whenever you look back and question your achievements and be like ‘naw man, I could do better…’ remember that this feeling is your ‘godly’ manifestation and is often overlooked, shrouded by self-doubt and societal constraints.

Not Blasphemous
Jesus quotes the Psalms, and he says,

I said, “You are gods,
sons of the Most High, all of you;
nevertheless, like men you shall die,
and fall like any prince. (Psalm 82:6–7)

The notion that humans possess god-like qualities is not blasphemous but rather a testament to the profound truth of our existence.

By doing so, we align ourselves with the divine will and act with pure intention.

I know you think this is mere convenience — and you might be tempted to believe so — but you will be closing a window to a whole new world!

Awaken the inner god in you.

Mind you, this journey to awaken our inner god requires courage and perseverance. It is a path of continuous growth, learning, and self-discovery.

In conclusion, the call to “act like a god” is a profound invitation to recognize and embody our divine potential. It is a reminder that we are more powerful than we realize, capable of creating, transforming, and inspiring. By aligning our actions with the virtues of compassion, wisdom, and responsibility, we can manifest a reality that reflects the divine image in which we are created. Let us embrace this truth, awaken our inner god, and act with the consciousness of creators, for the betterment of ourselves and the world.

As religious texts remind us, we are endowed with divine qualities and the capacity to bring forth a better world.

I forgive your past ignorance and dare you to a different perspective.
