The Art of Subtraction: Why Your Hustle is Keeping You Trapped

Image
The Art of Subtraction: Why Your Hustle is Keeping You Trapped The system has lied to you. It told you that building a legacy requires carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders. It taught you to stack stress, collect obligations, and wear your exhaustion like a badge of honor. But the Ancestors didn't design us to be pack mules for a broken matrix. Today, we step firmly into the brilliant, vibrant portal of Kuumba (Creativity) , vibrating at the high-texture frequency of Orange . And the first rule of true manifestation is this: Liberation is a subtractive journey. The Xhosa proverb warns us: Kuhlangene isanga nenkohla —the wonderful and the impossible have come into collision. When you allow yourself to stay trapped in the low-vibrational loops of being Mad, Sad, or Scared , you are playing by their rules. The system feeds on your blame, shame, and guilt. It turns every obstacle into an unyielding concrete wall. But an artist doesn’t war with the wall; an artist sees a ca...

Gye-Nyame steam adventures

This Journey involves alot of experimentation, and today I reached in and started experimenting with eating as much steamed food as possible I will be sending photos to the blog so that you can see some of the stuff i have figured out how to cook.

Image via Wikipedia Play capoeria/ And with each Roda watch life/ Change before your eyes/ Being blessed to have been involved with capoeria, I have a model of life that works for me. Capoeria is an art that teaches you how to play rather than fight. Don't get me wrong you learn to defend yourself, but the vibe is different from other martial arts. In capoeria you view conflict differently, by you making it a game you are more willing to try new things. In trying new things the art becomes you as you develop your style of play. This feeling , this idea can't help but to come into your regular life. Your life begins to become your roda (ring were we play) and you are constantly in the game. Knowing the rules of the roda or life makes the game more spectacular as you do your moves, and take advantage of what is being given to you. i had to recently look at my life and remeber my training.
