Igniting Prosperity: Unleashing the Power of Economic Faith

  Welcome, dear Tribe and Extended Family! Today, I invite you on a transformative journey. We're setting sail to explore the confluence of two profound principles from our cherished Gye-Nyame Journey Self Mastery System: Ujamaa and Imani. They are two powerful currents that, when they converge, form a forceful wave called Economic Faith. This wave has the power to propel us all towards a shore of abundance. Imagine a world where your wealth is my wealth, where your success ripples through our community, echoing into a symphony of collective triumph. This is the essence of Ujamaa, a Swahili concept embodying 'cooperative economics'. It's more than just a principle. Ujamaa is a heart-beat, a rhythm to which our society should dance, celebrating gratitude and reciprocity. Gratitude is the music that acknowledges and appreciates the harmonious contributions of others. Reciprocity is the dance that creates a balanced exchange of resources, ensuring no one is left behind. To

Ujima + Imani: Cultivating Responsible Faith

  Greetings Tribe and Extended Family, Today, we find ourselves on the day of Ujima in the week of Imani, a potent blend of principles that carries immense potential for personal and collective growth. We've been exploring the dynamic combinations of principles that make up our cultural framework, and today, we'll dive deep into the concepts of Ujima and Imani and how they can be applied responsibly for our collective success. Ujima, the third principle of Kwanzaa, translates to "Collective Work and Responsibility". It's an invitation to come together, to share the work, the struggles, and the triumphs. It encourages us to understand that our actions or inactions affect the entire community. By embracing Ujima, we accept our responsibility to work towards the betterment of our community, our tribe. It's about understanding that our strength lies in unity, and together, we can build a prosperous and harmonious tribe. Imani, the seventh principle of Kwanzaa, sig

  No Halfway Dreams Introduction The mind is the key to success. You can be the strongest person in the world, but if you don't believe in yourself, your dreams will stay just that—dreams. I've been through many battles with my mind and body, but now I'm coming out on top because I know when to give up and when not too. In this article, we'll go over tips for staying motivated and achieving your goals through hard work and faith! The Mind is the Key The mind is the key to success.

#NguzoSabaChallenge 6 - Description of ecourse 1

Great Kuumba: We have made it through this cycle (3rd cycle of 2022) and allow me to share with you what has been born as we struggled through the last 7 weeks. This is the power of Kuumba and aligning ourselves with the 5 parts of being, and sticking to a process. For those who have not noticed I have been posting articles everyday for the last 7 weeks. Each article was highlighting where I was in the cycle, and gave me something to share with the family. All of these articles have been posted up on gyenyamejourney.com as well as accompanied by a show, and I will continue doing this so that we can continue sending out our free eMag each week. I have been sitting on an idea of creating an ecourse for those that wanted to learn more about the system we use in Gye-Nyame Journey. I had to create a system that would help me move toward success and hang on to my culture. All of the motivational speakers and systems that I ran into were pulling me toward a culture-less place. Where everyone&

  #NguzoSabaChallenge 4 Great Ujamaa: We have embarked on a journey, and took this Imani week to talk about the #NguzoSabaChallenge, of course staying true to the game and making sure we talk about the principle of the day. Speaking of the principle of the day, we are on the principle of Ujamaa. Ujamaa to us is the green key to the whole system. It was the way that Ujamaa lined up in our system that let us know that the Ancestors were with us. Ujamaa in our system aligns with gratitude, reciprocity and the color green. I would also throw out the hermetic principle that it lines up with but that might be a little overkill. So Let’s look at the spiritual resources that are opened up when we apply ourselves to this system.  "If we apply ourselves to the principles tied to Ujamaa in a revolutionary way and use the resources that are opened up to us, we can build the kind of world that our Ancestors would have wanted for us." In the #NguzoSabaChallenge system we introduce the user
