The Subtractive Power of Nia: Stop Adding, Start Stripping Tribe, we have a collective addiction, and it is keeping us weak. We’ve been brainwashed by a hyper-capitalist, hustle-and-grind culture into believing that to find your purpose, you must constantly add more to your plate. More side hustles, more titles, more obligations, more noise. We split our divine energy into a thousand different directions and then look at our lives wondering why our impact feels diluted. Today is Friday, July 10, and we are stepping directly into the golden light of the Nia (Purpose) cycle. Nia isn’t a prize you win by collecting more baggage. Nia is revealed through the via negativa —the art of subtraction. You don't need to find your purpose; you need to uncover it by scraping off the heavy, calcified layers of distraction, illusions, and the toxic baggage of blame, shame, and guilt that this society handed you.

All you need-Ha2ku

12 notes in music/
26 letters to write/
you have all you need/

Then I began to think about the 26 letters of the alphabet and how we have been able to combine just 26 letters in different ways and create an infinite amount of stories, poems, essay, speeches, sermons, love letters and etc..

After realizing that I began to wonder what was I lacking in life. Perhaps I was looking at the quantity of things that I didn't have rather than the quality of things that I do. Just thinking about the 12 and the 26 and the infinite possibilities that flow from them. I have decided that I am lacking nothing. I just need to look at the infinite possibilities of what I do have rather than the big gapping hole of things I don't have. I have to learnt to cleverly combine the notes of my magical musical life and created the tunes of things to be and things that are. I decided that I will take the 26 letters of my spirit and write my mystical destiny. Creating my masterpiece of life.

My question for you, what is it that you are missing, because I my friend, I am missing nothing.
