Scraping the Noise to Build the Tribe: The Power of True Ujima Why are you so exhausted? You’ve been grinding day in and day out, stacking up obligations, checking off endless boxes, and trying to build an entire empire on your own isolated shoulders . We’ve been tricked into believing that individual success is our ultimate armor . This relentless hyper-independence is a direct symptom of an oppressed mind state, reinforced by historical "divide and conquer" strategies designed to turn us against each other and separate us from our collective cultural traditions . But what if your frantic pursuit of the solo hustle is actually the very wall blocking your true transformation into a life of peace, power, and joy ? The Internal Friction: Ego and the Unbalanced Passions There is a deep, underlying tension between the frantic urge to do more and the ancestral mandate to bind together . When we look at the internal friction fracturing our families and communities, the problem is...

Peace FAM:
It is time that I move to another level. I have spoke enough about sacrifice, suffering, embracing the bitter. Now it is time for us to see these things totally in action. I have decided to commit to completing another 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge with a fast. It is about to get hard. This time I will not be doing the intermittent fasting I will be doing a straight liquid fast. The goal is to demonstrate that it can be done, to help me workout some of my personal fears, and to solidify my vision for GNJ. I am not playing with this platform I have been blessed with, and I am not playing with this product that the Ancestors have dropped in my lap. I decided to call it the Gye-Nyame Quest.
Now what I will have to workout is a system that will help me make it through the rough times. I will follow everything that we do within the challenge, plus the fast. My system will look like this:
Week 1
Breathing Exercise
Toast
Movement
Cold shower/ bath
proverb & folktale of focus
daily vlog that will be made available to those that subscribe GNJ Updates
I will be able to drink all liquids juice, water (spring), coffee, tea, That Ambrosia, and etc...
Week 2

Week 3
Breathing Exercise
Toast
Movement
Cold shower/ bath
proverb & folktale of focus
daily vlog that will be made available to those that subscribe GNJ Updates
I will be able to drink water (spring) for first 4 days
Last 3 days I will consume nothing (Total Fast)
I am still workout an evening system but I want to get the morning and evening set so that they can take place on autopilot if need be. I already now that a few of the days I am going to be tired and not in the game, but I will overcome, especially once some of the Tribe begins checking up on me.
We spoke about the power of setting up systems that work for you and through you rather than setting up goals. Listen in and let us know what you think.

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 “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...
