Welfare Kings & Mosquito Power: Stripping the Mask Off the Trillionaire Illusion

Welfare Kings & Mosquito Power: Stripping the Mask Off the Trillionaire Illusion Pull up a chair to the porch, family. Let’s have some real talk about the grand illusion being spun across the modern landscape. Right now, the mainstream media is throwing a festival, asking us to look at the screen and celebrate the arrival of the world’s first trillionaire. They want you conditioned to look at these tech titans as self-made gods who built empires out of thin air. But when you drop the weight of their false narratives, the reality is stark: these men are the ultimate Welfare Kings. They are propped up entirely on public dimes, multi-billion dollar government contracts, exclusive set-asides, and massive tax credits. It isn't wealth creation; it is the systematic looting of our collective economy while our elders struggle in neglected homes and everyday workers rely on public assistance to supplement corporate wages. To understand how heavy this burden is, we have to look at the m...

Positive Thinking Is Not the SECRET


Positive thinking/
Is only a small part in/
Building a great life/


Click the link above to check out video that inspired this blog:


There was a recent study that shows that positive thinking can actually be harmful to people using it. This video focused on the movie "The Secret" as well as self help gurus like Tony Robbins, and Eckart Tolle. The study states that positive thinking basically does not work, and is a form of avoiding the truth. This can be very harmful according to the study especially to people with terminal illnesses.
Now I am a big supporter of science, but I will share my concerns. The issue is not that positive thinking does not work. The problem is that the scientist only studied positive thinking which is only a part of the process. Although the Secret movie stressed positive thinking, they also spoke about other steps necessary to make the process work. Now I will admit that the Secret movie also left a major part of the process, and that may have gave the wrong message to some of the viewers.
Those of us involved in any kind of coaching know that just thinking about something is not enough to cause it to happen. If the process is not followed then success will not be gained. Let's look at the whole process as we use it in Gye-Nyame:
Gye-Nyame SelfMastery Equation
(Thought x Emotional Content) + Action = Creation
The study leaves out the other steps which are just as important if not more important. Studying positive thinking without looking at the other 2 components is like trying to ride a bike without the chain and handle bars.
In my book the "Player's Pyramid" I discuss the process more in-depth pointing out the 7 tools and 7 steps to creating a better life, and/or accomplishing a goal. Positive thinking or what we call Thought is only empowered when we apply our Emotions. This of course was covered in the Secret movie as well as covered in Tony Robbins program. I think the misunderstanding in the media as well as the public because people may have made it to the end. Many people are just looking for the bullet points rather than really listening to the lecture or reading the books. Most system I have studied stress the importance of applying emotions to the thought process. Emotions energize thoughts and brings feelings needed to move to the next step of the process. Taking Action to bring your creation to life. Positive thinking, good feelings (emotional content) are all empty without Action. So if you decide to watch the Secret watch it all the way through, and if you plan to use it get the whole process and work it through.

*if you prefer to use the "Player's Pyramid" feel free to check out my book. Check out the first chapter for free on my blog.

How to pour Libations

Image
We pour libations/ to connect with all that is/ and to cleanse our hearts/ I need to start this article by stating this information is based on my personal experience. I have been pouring libations for at least 20 years all over the country and personally. Libations for me is a process of remembering, and connecting or re-connecting to not only the Spirit but everything around us . When we pour libations we are opening ourselves as well as the group to the axe ' of the entire Universe . I first must admit that I do not belong to a group, sect or religious order. I am a lay man who have made a personal connection with the world, and the spirit. By pouring Libations we strengthen these relationship. So let me define a few things first so that we can be on the same page. Libations - the process of pouring or giving a sacrifice to form a connection with this world and the spiritual realm. Spirituality - the state of establishing and maintaining relationships Axe...

The Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels

  The Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels “It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.” — Aesop In the world of fables, we often find animals acting out the deepest parts of our humanity. These creatures, symbols of instinct and survival, carry lessons older than time itself. The Bat and The Weasels , retold from the mind of Aesop and reimagined through the lens of Gye-Nyame Journey, isn’t just a tale for children—it’s a guide for those grown folks who still seek mastery. When the World Has You Cornered Here’s the setup: A bat falls to the ground and is caught by a weasel. The weasel hates birds. So the bat, slick with the tongue, says, “I’m not a bird—I’m a mouse.” The weasel lets him go. Later, the same bat falls again. This time, a different weasel catches him. But this weasel hates mice. So what does the bat say? “I’m not a mouse—I’m a bird.” And he gets set free again. Now, you could say the bat was being dishonest. But hold on. Let’s go de...
