The Architecture of the Eternal

  The Architecture of the Eternal https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-architecture-of-the-eternal--71904855 The world wants you to believe that Purpose is a destination you reach by running faster than everyone else. But what if your true Purpose is hidden under the mountain of things you’ve been told you should want? Today we're talking about the "Architecture of the Eternal." We’re looking at why your legacy isn't about your hustle—it's about what remains when the noise stops. We explore the patience of the egg and the danger of building on someone else's blueprint. Are you an architect, or just a bricklayer for a system that doesn't love you? Call to Inaction “The vessel is most useful when it is empty.” Release the need to be "productive" for just one hour today. Sit with the silence and ask: What am I doing only because I’m afraid of being forgotten? Which "responsibility" is actually just a distraction from my soul's work? ...

My Reflection

Image
After reading this blog by  +Seth Godin   I had to reflect on what Respect truly means. I love to look into words and get back to their roots. As  a matter of fact, I make it a habit. I believe that you can only grasp the true meaning of a word when you go back to where it comes from. i guess this is a lesson that I learned from the Book called  "Openings To The African Tree of Life by Erskine Peters" in it their is a proverb that states "in the original name is the essence". For me this has become a mantra that a say and put into action. By practicing the wisdom that lies in that proverb it has helped me make sense of words that I and others around me would just throw around. I began to realize that I was using words simply on feeling and not really understanding the true meaning. That brings me back to the word Respect, which the blog (at least to me ) is talking about. The word Respect is composed of to smaller words:  Re- which means again Spect- which me...

New Tool In Revolution - Meet Gumroad

Image
Finally business/ that is done on internet/ that makes sense and fair/ I like to introduce those on the Journey to Gumroad.com . I was lucky enough to run into this site from a post by one of my internet heroes (Seth Godin). Finally I am seeing ideas that make the internet a truly level playing field. With Gumroad you can sell things directly to your followers and friends. No big institution in-between taking a cut from your labor.I personally sell books off of amazon, and they take almost 50% of what I make. This gives an artist like myself no choice but to raise my price. But with Gumroad on charging .25 cents per purchase now I and other artist can bring our price down so that people who may want to try our product would be more willing to do so.  For me this has revolutionized the game, and now I'm jumping into the heart of it. Because this site allows me to sell MP3, PDFs, or even seen hardcopies or other objects over the site at a an affordable price. I can make ...

Sending Props to Seth Godin

Image
On this Journey you have to sometimes adjust your trajectory. You sometimes end up on a dead end trail, because the Journey is about gaining the experience so that you can share what you know. At these times it is good to humble yourself and admit that you are lost. What I have found in life is  that when you let your ego go and ask the universe for help, something always appears. Sometimes it's a book, a map, gift, and if you are lucky  a person. During one of my lost moments, I happened to be on TED.com looking for videos. This is when I ran into Seth Godin's presentation entitled " The Tribes We Lead ". He presented answer to questions I had been wrestling with. I suggested that those on the Journey check the video out. Now I want to send props for a few major things I learned from @sethgodin: 1. I was not trying to build organizations, but Tribes. It was something I had being doing but did not know what to call it. By being introduced to this idea, I have cha...
