DIGITAL MINDSET ~Jude Donpaul

in digital •  7 years ago 

The world is evolving, there is a transition from complexity to simplicity. Things are digitally revolutionising in the twinkle of an eye.

As much as we try to shy away from the digital revolution, it catches up with us and we find ourselves with no choice romancing the digital world.

Primitiveness creates a blocked mind to transit from the Old ways – New ways, Old mindset – New mindset, Old economy – New economy, Analogue – Digital.

The mother of invention is having an open mind to think and create something valuable for yourself and generations to come. The world won’t wait for you but you have to catch up with the positive trend of life that can create benefits for you.

Every minute of the day, ideas are hatched but from few selected people who chooses themselves to think differently and within hours people plug into such ideas that are hatched to create wealth for themselves.

Being a victim of closed mind can deprive you of accessing opportunities and taking a giant step to take risk. Risks are two-sided coin, the positive and negative risk. A risk becomes positive when people buy into an idea during the hatching process and cart away with much benefits before the negative risk-induced person tries to buy in.

Negative risk-induced are people who don’t believe in any opportunity thrown at them even when it’s glaring to them due to a negative or ponzified mindset. People of these kind will later transit into positive risk taker because they don’t have a choice due to the permanent stay of an idea they don’t believe in when it first started.

As you read this write-up, you’re digitally on because your phone, data and applications and any other device are used to access it, reminding you the fact that we’re in a digital world.

People who believed in the digital world in the early days made digital wealth through their digital investment are still in the digital game while others are on the analogue side of life watching the world going digital.

Africa is an element to consider in terms of the digital wave of things and how our poverty-induced mindset negates opportunities in the digital world of wealth creation. We need a liberated mindset to see things in a positive way because opportunities passes us by and we’re perceived by the western world as Product Receiver and not a product Conceiver because the profit is made in Africa when ideas are hatched in the western world. No wonder Victor Kgomotswana said, Africa is open for business.

Let me safe land my point, digital currency and blockchain technology is the new technological wave which is already disrupting the Fiat (paper) currency and Internet Of Things is trending on a fast lane, believe it, live it or leave it because these are Make-Things-Happen technologies.

Afripreneurs shouldn’t be left out due to the benefit glued to business across the globe. They shouldn’t be caught unaware bearing in their digital mind that Bitcoin has come to stay. The bank system is shivering because the hyper-profit they make is decreasing base on blockchain technology in vogue. Businesses are cashing in already because they don’t want to be told but having a first-hand experience.

Gear up, the digital currency revolution is dawning on Africa, don’t be sidelined based on your blocked mindset. Empty your cup of primitive norms and embrace new waves of how things are done transitionally.

I wasn’t surprised when Forbes Africa wrote about Bitcoin and Blockchain technology in their September edition, 2017, I would have been surprised if they didn’t write about it.

Breaking norms has always been the DNA of technology thinkers due to their disrupting nature and how they’re wired. It will require a norm-breaking mind to believe in such a technology and also make wealth from it.

Through a digital mindset, you can create digital wealth.
