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...

Where Is Your Seriousness

"No one will or should take your stuff more serious than you!" This idea is one of the Gye-Nyame Journey's keys to success. When we "hone in"on our purpose we develop a seriousness that becomes contagious. Everyone around us catches the seriousness in which we carry our ideas, projects, property, goals, and etc.. Either they joins us in that view or disappear from our lives. Many of us are not willing to get serious enough to chase the fake people out of our lives. This is why many people remain stuck where they are. Fake people weigh you down and prevent you from climbing to the top. In fact they help you come up with excuses that you use to justify why you are stuck, and also gives you permission not to be "so uptight". You begin to believe that you can make it to the top without being serious. You learn to be cool, and in fact nothing seems to get you excited, you lack a sense of urgency.

Next Level NationBuilding

Many people are probably wondering what does selling energy have to do with NationBuilding? After many years of trying "to make a dollar out of 15 cent", I have personally come to the conclusion that any activities that claim to be about NationBuilding must have at their core an economic life. Selling energy provides an economic life for Gye-Nyame. We started gathering some of our family and friends, introducing them to Ambit and money has begun to flow to us in away we never expected. By bringing value to others, by saving them money on their electricity bill we have created a stream of income that is flowing into our tribe. In order for a Nation to exist there must be an economic life. This economic life must flow regularly. Economics is the life blood of a people, if you stop the flow of economics you destroy the people. By plugging Gye-Nyame Journey into utilities (electricity for now) we establish a flow of resources to our tribe that can be used to provide money for al...
