The Cost of the Feast: Why Comfortable Chains Are Still Chains

The Cost of the Feast: Why Comfortable Chains Are Still Chains Let’s stop lying to ourselves about modern success. We love to boast about the corner office, the direct deposits, and the luxury perks, but behind closed doors, our spirits are suffocating. We have traded our sovereign genius for corporate scraps, smiling through microaggressions just to secure a seat at a table that was built to exploit us. The ancestors from Malawi cut straight through that compromise: "It is better to eat mushrooms in freedom than to eat meat in slavery." August 21st holds heavy ancestral receipts. On this exact night in 1791, Dutty Boukman and Cécile Fatiman gathered our people in the dark woods of Bois Caïman. They looked at the plantation tables heaped with meat bought with their own degradation and chose the wild mushrooms of war, sparking the Haitian Revolution.

Do you know the tricks/

Do you know the tricks of your trade. To become the best we have to look at those that are the most successfully in our field, and learn from them. In my short life I have noticed that those who make the most progress understand the principle of tricks. They have found or created small short cuts, that if we pay attention to, we can duplicate and improve upon their success.

I need to stress that just finding tricks is not enough we need to practice our skills continuously, and begin adding the tricks that we learn to become the best. Many of us believe what we see. What I mean is that many of us see people that have mastered their skill and the tricks of their trade and think that what they are doing is easy. That is the farthest from the truth. Usually the ones that are the best are usually that hardest working. They just make it look easy and in some cases magical. So take some time and master your skill. look around and see who is the best. Ask them questions, watch what and how they do their work. Learn, grow and appear to be magical.
