Planting Seeds for a Forest We May Never Sit Under

  Purpose is the silent engine of progress. On this day of Nia , we focus on the color Yellow —the color of the sun and the intellect. We are challenged to look at our lives not as a series of random events, but as a purposeful construction project. In our community, Nia is the commitment to make our collective vocation the building and developing of our people. It is the realization that we are the answers to the prayers of our ancestors. When we live with Nia, we stop working for a paycheck and start working for a legacy. But how do we stay aligned when the world tries to pull us off course? How do we find the "forward-lean" required to lead our families and tribes? I dive deep into these questions in today's episode of Tha Daily Spark . Listen to the full episode here to sharpen your vision: Listen to "Nia: The Architecture of Our Collective Destiny" on Spreaker.

Lesson from a younger sister

Sister bought a book/
And gave me some wise advice/
Support your circle/



Went out to my usual spot on saturday to get a hookah and some tea (gypsy lounge). One of my sister popped in and asked about my books. I showed her what I had and she purchased a book. I tried to give her change and she refused to take it. She then looked at me and said that "people that are around you should support your work", I had to take second realize the wisdom that she dropped on me. Although this is common sense, it was something that I needed to hear. Actually this was uncommon sense, because very few of us practice this.
I had to go through my mental roladex to see who was in my circle, and who am I supporting. I also needed to take inventory and see who was supporting me. I believe that my little sister's wisdom should encorage you to the same.
