Ha2ku by ha2tim
It is the responsibility of leadership to provide his tribe with a vision. This vision provides the motivational force that not only moves the group but moves the indivduals in the group to better themselves. The leader should be able to create a map that helps the the group see where they are, how they got there and most importantly where they are going. This requires the leader to pull on a important part of his/her humanity that has been casted away in modern times, and that is the role of story teller.
In ancient times the story teller was the keeper of the history, morals and goals of the the tribe. A good story has the power to pull people in and give them hope and "the Will" (inspiration) to work toward bringing the story to life. We have let this quality go in our organizations, thinking that stories are for children or people in entertainment. But i would argue that it is one of the most important traits of being a good leader.
Today people are looking for those individuals who can weave a story together. This skill comes in really needed when the people are in desperate times because it reminds the group of their bonds, and common goals. Of course you can give people charts and statistics, but this does not satisfy their true needs. They want to be reassured and a good leader can call on these skills to help the people tap into their very essence and create miracles. Being able to tell a story does more than motivate it inspires people. What leaders forget or may not know because of the way we were taught to view the world is that we are spiritual beings. A leader can use motivation techniques but that is not enough s/he needs to be able to reach into our very being and touch the spirit of their group. When we look at the word "inspire" we can see that it speaks of "the spirit within". So when a leader inspire by the use of story, s/he reaches in and touches the spirit of the person. Now there are institutions that do this on a weekly basis, but the question we have to wrestle with is what are they reaching in to touch the spirit for (but that is another blog for another day). So leaders take the time to construct the story of your tribe, organization, or business. Pull on the information you have and construct it to answer some basic questions:
1. Where are we at
2. How did we get here
3. Where are we going
4. Challenges that lie on the path
5. How will we get there

Let's Take It To The Next Level - 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge

Image
Peace FAM: It is time that I move to another level. I have spoke enough about sacrifice, suffering, embracing the bitter. Now it is time for us to see these things totally in action. I have decided to commit to completing another 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge with a fast. It is about to get hard. This time I will not be doing the intermittent fasting I will be doing a straight liquid fast. The goal is to demonstrate that it can be done, to help me workout some of my personal fears, and to solidify my vision for GNJ. I am not playing with this platform I have been blessed with, and I am not playing with this product that the Ancestors have dropped in my lap. I decided to call it the Gye-Nyame Quest. Now what I will have to workout is a system that will help me make it through the rough times. I will follow everything that we do within the challenge, plus the fast. My system will look like this: Week 1 Breathing Exercise Toast Movement Cold shower/ bath proverb & folktale of

GNJ # System

  GNJ # System Introduction In the ancient world, we used numbers to count and calculate. Numbers were also used in rituals and religious ceremonies. Today, we still use numbers for these purposes, but they have become more important than ever before! Numbers provide a way to better understand ourselves as individuals. Numbers also provide a way to better understand the world around us and how we interact with it. Finally, numbers can help us learn more about how to behave so that we can achieve our goals, whether they are spiritual or material in nature. The GNJ system is a new approach that will allow you to gain insight into yourself by using numerology and astrology together! The first step is learning your Life Path Number (sometimes called your "birthday number"). This will tell you what kind of person you are at heart based on when you were born - which could be either good news or bad news depending on when that happens." Numbers provide a way to better understan
