Earlier last week I decided to do something kind of crazy. Instagram had recently deleted my account over what they called 'instances of abuse.' Which in reality amounted to a photo of myself in a sheer top and a post of a jacket I made featuring a picture of two close friends topless. For these instances of abuse, I was politely informed that I would no longer be welcome in the Instagram community.

I am into nature and seeing whales. I went whale-watching, and I was really looking forward to that, but when you see it on TV and you see other programs do it, you're seeing close-ups of these massive creatures, and the music that's added gives you a certain feeling. But in reality, you're stuck on a boat that's bobbing up and down, you feel sick, the whale isn't there on demand.

I did this to show people that we filter and manipulate what we show on social media, and that we create an online world which reality can no longer meet.

My goal was to prove how common and easy it is to distort reality. Everybody knows that pictures of models are manipulated. But we often overlook the fact that we manipulate reality also in our own lives.

Reality is just a crutch for people who can't cope with drugs.

That's why you're in the Shark Tank. You're here for money. I'm a rational investor. You people are probably delusional entrepreneurs. Somewhere in the middle is reality.

Either you deal with what is the reality, or you can be sure that the reality is going to deal with you.

Our intention creates our reality.
