See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence. ~ Mother Teresa Theodore Roosevelt : "Do what you can, with what you have, where you are."

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. Some time when life seems to become overwhelming I have to take advantage of the rules

Image by Getty Images via @daylife Check out 50 cent... for those that don't know 50 wrote a book with Robert Greene . this is an interesting combination check them out as they discuss the book. it was a good read for me, and for those that work with Youth it may be a good book to motivate young people to read. Especially those that have a entrepreneurial spirit (of course I mean legal), because in this New Economy we have to prepare our youth for whats coming. Robert Greene is an excellent writer. He connects the past and strategies that people in history have used, to what is going on today. From personal experience, I have seen young people that you would never believe would read a book, actually steal his book from my library. I didn't mind because my goal was to get them to read in the first place. So check out video and let me know what you think.

Image via Wikipedia Invention Ideas/ given out because I cant / build visions i see/ Quick idea for invention given out because i don't have the technical skills to develop it: Here we go the only thing I ask if you develop this idea you shoot me some dough and donate to causes that matter. If not my Ancestors will get you...hahahahhaaaa, but I'm serious!!! I have problems getting up in the morning, and I heard that the reason that it is so hard to get up in the morning is because when we sleep our body cools off, and the period that we are struggling with the morning blahs is because our bodies is trying to warm up.... so i figured that if a blanket was developed that began to warm the body slowly.....lets say an hour before our actual alarm clock goes off it would be easier for us to get and face the day. This would be an alarm system that worked with the body to make mornings less about mourning and more about getting our day started. someone that is really invented can de

Image by Dave Makes via Flickr I am tired now/ World closes in for the kill/ Fuck it , and live dreams/ I wanted to call this post "forget it", but that did not move me like FUCK IT!!! I needed something to  get the juices flowing because this conversation requires emotional content. I have noticed that people need to get their emotions involved in order to make necessary changes in their life. Intellectually we can present idea after idea, but if we never touch the emotions all we are doing is intellectually masturbating. So I needed a term that would get you involved with this post, and "FUCK IT" works perfectly. In some of you it may cause a feeling of revulsion  and for others it may make you laugh, but if it evokes any emotional response that is what I was shooting for. Emotion is powerful tool that can help build an empire or destroy it. The important thing to remember is the emotions and thought have to align for successful continuous action to take pl
