The Subtractive Power of Nia: Stop Adding, Start Stripping

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.

This an interesting article for those o the journey. the question for me is how can I use information like this to improve my life? How could I use the fact that someone watching me even an inanimate object could force me to be at my best. This reminds me of what religion use to do for society. When everyone is convinced  that they are being watched by a higher being it motivates them to alwas do their best, and more importantly do what's right. Where has this feeling gone? Have we advance so far that we have dropped the idea that we are being watched by other worldly beings that monitor and judge our every step. Sounds intrusive, but it serves it purpose.
I often state that we need to operate as if the next seven generations depends on our action now I am switching this statement to " My Ancestors and the 7 generations to come are all watching me and depending on me to be the best person I can be."
How you choose to use this info is your choice but I hope rather than focusing on how it effects others you will more so focus on how you can use it best to effect your own life.

We have to make sure generation after generation people understand that they are setting examples always whether they know they are being watched or not!!
