  Unlocking the Power of Honor: A Guiding Light for Our Tribe's Future In a world where words often lose their meaning amidst the noise, "Honor" stands tall, embodying a profound truth that resonates deeply within the soul of our community. As we navigate the complexities of modern existence, it's essential to return to the roots that define us, leveraging the timeless principles of Honor, Loyalty, and Sacrifice to forge a path forward. This exploration isn't just about understanding a concept; it's about redefining our collective destiny through the lens of integrity and truth. As a community committed to empowerment and personal growth, we dive deep into the essence of Honor—dissecting its impact on our lives and our interactions with each other. This isn't just an article; it's a manifesto for those ready to embody the true meaning of Honor in their lives, propelling our tribe towards unprecedented heights of unity and strength.

False hustle-Ha2ku

Image by animm via Flickr Hustle means to move/ To move faster and better/ Than competition / Are you a hustler or are you being hustled ? Living life so busy that you have no time. Moving from pillar to post, but in all your motion going no where. We are surrounded by so called hustlers, people who are in motion building monuments to nothingness. Not realizing  the true definition of hustler. To be a hustler  we have to not only be in motion, but we have to be moving toward a goal.  Hustlers have to be moving better and faster than our competition. As we travel on this Journey we have take time to lay out our goals. We have to figure out who is our competition, and we have to continually move toward improving what we do. One of the major things we have to be willing to do is find ourselves a model to learn from. Being a hustler is a learned skill and is better  for us when we can follow the paths that has been blazed. We have to always be open to new information that helps u

10000-Ha2ku

Image via Wikipedia To be a master/ 10000 hours you need/ practicing your skill / On this journey that many of us boldly walk. We often have to travel alone and this gives us time to take action to get the one thing that many people neglect. This thing is mastery of our chosen skill. In these days mastery is not stressed, we are told that we should be well rounded, and be able to do many things good, rather than focusing our time and effort into one thing. This week during my study I came across a quote that really helped put this Ha2ku into perspective. My whole life I have heard the saying "don't put all your eggs in one basket" I have even given this advice to people I love thinking I was looking out for their best interest. In actuality when we give this advice what do is end up stripping the world of a possible master of a necessary skill. This saying has us submitting ourselves to all types of trainings and classes waisting our time trying to be well rounded s

entrepreneur- Ha2ku

Image
Image by Thomas Hawk via Flickr America needs/ Entrepreneurs creating/ Not jobs to be worked/ Men and Women with vision is what is needed today. We need those that are willing to create jobs, and not just search for them. While speaking to many young people in my community the major thing that I hear repeatedly is about the need for jobs. It seems as if we are in denial about the state of the world. Jobs are vanishing, and leaving opportunity for those who train themselves to see them. We must spark the desire to create jobs. We must foster the entrepreneurial spirit in ourselves and our youth. The day of the government and/or factory job is going the way of the dinosaur. We will be forced to fend for ourselves.This for most will sound terrifying but for those on their Journey this sounds like opportunity. In times of change and confusion that is when the s/heroes rise to create something new. The new mind state that has to come from those on their Journey is how do we provid

Consciousness-ha2ku

Image
Image via Wikipedia Universe expands/ As our consciousness expands/ We are the limit/ The Universe is a magnificent place, and each night as I walk my dog I am constantly looking at this Creation. A question came to me as I was looking at the snow and then up at the stars. I had recently heard a show on NPR where they described the two black holes that were discovered at the center of our galaxy. Each Black hole was 25,000 light years across. Now just thinking about the size and distance sent me for a loop. I often meditate on ideas such as this, but this night I was trying to create a Ha2ku to welcome the beauty and harshness of winter. Out of the blue, as I opened my mind to the Creative process, I was hit by this question "what if the Universe grew with the conscious of the viewer"? I know that for many of you reading this blog that this  is not a new thought, but the power of this idea inspired me. This means that all I see is created by my consciousness. the univer

Failure-Ha2ku

Image
Image by kohtzy via Flickr Bricks that pave road/ To success are made from the/ dust of our failures/ I was talking to one of my client 's  and this question came up: What is the opposite of success? My client stated "the opposite of success is failure", but as our conversation progressed we both had to re-think this statement. During the SelfMastery process the goal of the coach is to help the student find his own path. In SelfMastery we don't talk about failures we look at feedback. We learn how to look at our outcomes and adjust our actions step by step (waging a Minor Things Campaign) until we get the results we are seeking.  SelfMastery is a Dynamic process that grows with each individual that goes through this process.  I am still in Process myself, traveling this Journey with each of you. Last week during my personal process I was bombarded by quotes and proverbs that all praised Failure . This blew my mind because My whole life I was taught the n

Miracles II-Ha2ku

Image
Image via Wikipedia Miracles happen/ Your life is a miracle/ Take breath , be happy We have so many miracles happening that it has become normal for us, so we ignore them. Open your eyes and see the beautiful miracles that surround you. Take some time to force yourself to notice. Your Creator is screaming for your attention. Open your eyes and your soul, and take this journey. If you can't appreciate the small things, you will never be able to handle the large. *Waking up - miracle * Watching your children grow - miracle *Taking a breath- miracle But the biggest miracle is your Life. You are a walking masterpiece. Blessed beyond your wildest dreams, but you have been lied to. Know that you are what you have been waiting for.

Terror-Ha2ku

Image
Image by char1iej via Flickr Terror; enhanced fear / Leads now to enhanced pat downs!/ Terrorist have won!!!/ Terror is nothing but enhanced fear. When the people are terrorized they loose faith in each other and the government(leadership). If the government or leadership show that they are afraid, the people begin to trust them even less. Then next comes different forms of internal rebellion and bickering, while the ones that have caused the enhanced fear go untouched. This ultimately leads to a small victory for the outsiders (cause of the terror). Create enough small victories and the large ultimate victory will take care of its self. Fear is a virus that is very contagious and once it begins to spread the only cure is massive doses of love. I need to be clear that right now im speaking to the individuals  reading this article. The terror that I want to really discuss is the terror attacks that may be plaguing you. What enhanced fear have you been dealing with that may have

Words-Ha2ku

Image
Image via Wikipedia Words expand our view/ Of reality they help/ Us see whats in world/ The words we speak have more power than we give them credit for. Words help us define our reality, by painting pictures for us in our mind. If these little words build up this picture in our mind and shape reality. We may need to change some of the words that we use. How many negative words do you throughout into the universe. These words act as magnets and attract to us the very energy we are speaking out. Guard your thoughts and even more the words that you speak. When we look at the beginning many Creation stories begin with the Great Spirit speaking the Universe into being. Just like this Creative force you speak your life into being. So let us be mindful of the energy we release into the world. You are a reality generating machine so speak what it is that you want in your life and in your loved ones lives. Speak what it is you want in the world.  Speak health, speak wealth, speak pe

Crying (weeping)-Ha2ku

Image
Image via Wikipedia While in pain I weeped/ My soul opened to answers/ Secrets were revealed/ I have been fortunate in my life to have been blessed to sit at the feet of some the wisest men and woman. They have taught me a lot and some of the stories I will bring to you through my blog, and videos. I have one elder who taught me an important lesson about 14 years ago and it has finally sunk in. This elder is a major part of The SIMBA Nation, and his lesson came to me by way of a question that he not only asked me, but he continues to still ask every potential NationBuilder in the SIMBA Nation. The question is simply "when was the last time you cried ?" Seems like a simple question on paper, but when asked in an interview process and also dealing with many of the "false" lessons of manhood. This simple question sends you for a loop. The question hit home for me while I was taking care of my youngest daughter . She began to cry and I did everything in my power

Invisible sword-Ha2ku

Image
Image by Amin Tabrizi via Flickr Strike down opponents/ With power within using/ Invisible sword / The mind is the invisible sword that strikes down your opponents, and breaks through your obstacles. How do you care for your invisible sword? Do you practice using it or do you just keep it in your sheath? Your Invisible sword needs to be used on a regular basis in your battles of life. you must harness your techniques and constantly practice with it. You must keep it oiled and sharp, and ready for action. The dangers of your mind are very similar to that of a sword. Because like a sword the mind cuts both ways. It can either cut you if used improperly, or cut your opponent. We have to constantly practice using our mind, and like with a sword develop techniques that are effective. For example what thoughts (strikes) are you throwing out into the world. Many of us constantly produce cutting blows upon ourselves by producing negative thoughts. We destroy ourselves long before o

Your name-Ha2ku by ha2tim

Image
Image by eph2810 via Flickr What is in your name/ It is the song of your life/ What song do you dance/ What does your name  say about you? Have you taken the time to find out what the most prominent word in your life says about you? If you do know and don't like what it means, have you taken the time to either change it or even redefine  it? One of the gifts we were blessed with by our Creator , was the ability to define . So let us start by defining ourselves. We need to learn to look at our names as tools to help us achieve our goals in  life. Does your name empower you to move toward your destiny, or does the sound of it weigh you down. Take control of your life,  and guide the song of your life. We also need to be careful about the names that we call others. Do you speak failure to friends and family. Are you throwing pleasant curses through the nicknames we use or give. We have forgotten about the power of the Word, especially the words that we use to describe ours

Small strikes-Ha2ku

Image
Image by Aesum via Flickr David slew giant/ With free stones, could terrorist / Do same to this land?/ David slew the unstoppable Goliath with three smooth stones. David was a unknown shepard living in the hills with his flock, he had no reputation nor did he have anything to loose. The stones costed David close to nothing. The only thing we can factor in for David's expense was the fact he had to spend time finding the stones. Goliath on the other hand was known as unbeatable and he spent years building up this rep. He also spent thousands of his country's money to arm and protect himself. We all know the outcome of this underdog story, but have we explored it as a metaphore for what is happening between America and this war on terror ? America the once under dog country now has grown into a Goliath. It's exploits are lengedary. Like Goliath America has spent large sums of money on it's weapons and it's protection. America is now poised on the battlefield

The Sacred and mysterious-Ha2k

Image
Image via Wikipedia What's sacred to you/ Today we trample sacred/ In name of progress/ We all need to find what is sacred to us. Society seems to have diminished the importance of the sacred. The sacred forms the foundation of our lives and needs to be embraced by us. These sacred things that we have in our life whether they are people, ideas, and/or etc.,help us maintain our personal path. Modern progress has stripped the sacred from us, and has left everything the same. When we set something up as sacred we separate it from the normal world. We appreciate the mystery of the person, obj ect, or idea. This mystery is the source of the power of the sacred, but now we confuse ignorance with mystery. When we are ignorant of something we just don't know, and may not want to take the time to learn. When something is a mystery we know about it, but we know that there is something always deeper. So we respectfully seek out the hidden knowledge learning that we may never know

Image via Wikipedia Gye-Nyame Journey/ Welcomes all the new readers/ let's grow together/ I want to take this time to thank everyone that take the time out of your day to join me on this journey. We will be dealing with SelfMastery™, and hopefully inspire you to move into your personal process of mastery. I will be dealing with all sorts of issues and ideas, but this is not just about my journey this is about our journey. By you joining this blog or just poppin in every now and then, or receiving a proverb/quote with a link you have joined us on this Gye-Nyame Journey. We all know a journey is no fun if just one person that talks. So feel free to add comments, make suggestions, ask questions. I promise you, I will respond. I strive to begin every blog with what I call a Ha2ku (actually the word is haiku), but since I'm using it on my journey and being of the Hiphop generation i take the right to change the Spelling and etc.. I use the Ha2ku as a personal tool for my own

Image via Wikipedia Ailments that were dead/ Now haunt and threaten cities/ Who released these plagues?/ I just recieved a letter from my sons school warning me about whopping Cough. I was watching the news and heard words like Polio, and measels . The word on the street is that Bedbugs are running New York city , and may become the state mascot. I thought that these ailments and critters were dead and gone. How did they come back on the seen. Think about this with me please, Bedbugs have not been an issue in USA since WW2. All of the sudden they are a major issue. Whooping cough was a rs" title="List of childhood diseases and disorders" rel="wikipedia">childhood disease that was all but eradicated, as a matter of fact I have never seen anyone in my life with it. Now I have to worry about my child contracting it. The key word here is worry , has anyone notice that worry seems to be spreading like a virus. If your not worried about terrorist, the

Image via Wikipedia Stop blocking blessings / Stop standing in your own way/ Move FOOL!!!, and let God / Ha2ku by ha2tim This is a simple blog today. Let's stop blocking our blessings. Let's stop standing in our own way. Take some time today to search your heart, and ask yourself the questions that will lead you to the ways that you are blocking your blessings. Let's Search out our personal foolishness, and get out the way and let that creative force move through us and for us. I can not help but stress the importance of monitoring our thoughts. Those that are on the Journey of SelfMastery need to begin to track where our minds go(thought diary). This is the major block, I will even say the main foolishness that stops the flow of blessings in our lives. So get your mind right, and get the "Fuck out of the way".

Questions-Ha2ku

Image
Image via Wikipedia We learn by questions/ Questions light fire of mind / that burns to the Truth/ Ha2ku by ha2tim When did we stop asking questions? I have noticed that during my SelfMastery coaching sessions that I don't get a lot of questions. I have also noticed a drop in questions in some of the lectures that I attend as well. What happened to that desire to know more than was revealed. Have we surrendered to our training and now just except what we are told? I remember when I was younger, I use to get in trouble and embarrassed for asking questions. I was made to feel stupid for asking, but I did not care and still asked questions. Questions are what we use to sharpen our minds. In junior high I learned about basic questions that I feel some of us need to dust off and begin to use again: Who, What, Where, When, Why, and How. While talking to myself, as I was writing this blog, my Grand Father over heard what my subject was and he stated, " we stopped asking
