The "Self-Made" Lie: Why You’re Waiting for Chickens to Grow Teeth

  The "Self-Made" Lie: Why You’re Waiting for Chickens to Grow Teeth Listen, family—the Ancestors didn’t leave us myths; they left us an algorithm . Right now, we are in a fractal convergence that only happens once every seven years. We are in the year, cycle, week, and day of Ujima . The vibration is Blue—deep, steady, and inescapable. We’ve been sold a colonizer’s dream: the "Self-Made" man. We’ve been coached to carry the world on our own shoulders until our spines snap, calling it "hustle." But that "I got this" mask is actually a coffin. In the Wolof tradition, when someone makes excuses for not showing up for the Tribe, they say: "Wait until the chicken grows teeth." Stop waiting for the impossible "perfect moment" to be responsible for your brother. If his house is flooding, your floor is already wet. Ujima—Collective Work and Responsibility—isn't a chore; it’s the key to your own survival. On this Total Ujima Day,...

Kujichagulia

My mind is focused/
on Self determination/
Define self for self/

Principle: Kujichagulia:
Numbers: 2,8
Color: Indigo
Element: earth
Day: Tuesday
Chakra: Third eye

Kwanzaa is time for us to rededicate ourselves. To reconnecting to what is true within us, and to rebuilding our communities The second principle of Kwanzaa speaks to this on several levels. The major issue that we will focus on today with this principle is the power to define ourselves for ourselves (check out my blog and Ha2ku called "NamingYour Purpose"). This principle speaks to us about the importance of defining ourselves and the world that we are in. When  we learn to use the power of this principle in the world we take command of our reality. This makes it easier for us to live, by giving us the responsibility and ability to create the world that we want to see.

This powerful principal can be used also in hard times to help us pull through. Self Determination is what it speaks of. This principle helps us to learn to control our Will as well. when we take time and learn the mysteries of this principle we learn about the sleeping giant that is sleeping inside of us. This sleeping giants will give us the power to break through all obstacles.

Take some time today to focus on this principle and build your personal power by working with it in your mind and soul through meditation, and deep thought. Now that you know the day and the color you can focus on it at its most powerful times.
