Defining Your Own Reality Are You Living Your Story or Someone Else’s? We all have a script. It’s handed to us by our parents, our schools, our jobs, and society at large. It tells us who we are supposed to be, how much we are allowed to earn, and what we are "allowed" to dream. But what happens when that script doesn't match the fire in your soul? In today’s episode, we confront the uncomfortable truth about Self-Determination. We aren't just talking about making choices; we are talking about the radical act of defining your own reality. We explore the "bad omens" placed on us by others and how, like the story of the princess with the crooked back, we can transform our perceived weaknesses into our greatest sources of power. If you have ever felt like a supporting character in your own life, you need to hear this. Your Next Steps: Stop wandering and start building.

Listen to "Episode 2966 - No Frills, No Thrills just Brother ha2tim: "Those who want rain"" on Spreaker.   Those Who Want Rain Must Also Accept the Mud Great day fam. Let’s get straight to it. “Those who want rain must also accept the mud.” – African Proverb That’s the one I chose to work with on Day 2 of our Tribal Quotes journey. It hit me different, and I had to sit with it. See, everybody wants the rain. We pray for the blessings, for the harvest, for that growth to come in. But what we don’t talk enough about is what comes with it—the mud. The mess. The struggle. The uncomfortable parts that stick to you while you’re trying to bloom. We want the rain to fall and wash us clean, to nourish our seeds and bring our visions to life. But that same rain turns the ground soft. It gets slippery. It slows you down. That’s the mud—and you can’t avoid it if you really want the growth. You Can’t Have One Without the Other This ain’t just about weather—it’s about life. A...

In Between the Opposites: Mastery, Principles, and the Gye-Nyame Way By ha2tim | Gye-Nyame Journey There’s a thought that’s been sitting with me lately—something that blossomed during a morning meditation, rooted in reflection, and now ready to be shared with the Family. We talk about mastery a lot in Gye-Nyame Journey— self-mastery, family mastery, tribal mastery, community mastery . And I’m beginning to understand that this isn’t just a sequence—it’s a cycle , a spiral, always turning, always returning, always evolving. At any given time, you’re working on all of them. Getting yourself together while trying to help your family grow. Building family while refining your tribe. Tending to tribe while holding space for community. It's not linear. It’s layered. But here’s the key: your frame matters . The way you view the world determines how you move in it. Sin, Harmony, and the Space In Between In "African Openness to the Tree of Life," there’s a framework that shi...

 "Who Are You Responsible To?" – A Blueprint for Belonging, Responsibility, and Respect There’s a quiet frustration that builds when you're walking a path of service, especially when working with young people. You see their brilliance, their questions, their fire—and you feel called to guide them. But there’s also a tension. A generation that’s constantly told the world revolves around them often struggles to see beyond their own immediate needs. This message is for them. For us. For anyone who's forgotten—or never been taught—that there’s a method to the madness, an order to the chaos, and that responsibility doesn’t come without structure. Concentric Circles: A System of Self and Service In the Gye-Nyame Self-Mastery system, everything starts with the individual—the self. But the self doesn’t exist in isolation. The self is connected to larger circles: family, tribe, community, and so on. Each layer expands your responsibility and your support system. But here’...

The Subtle but Powerful Shifts of Fasting: A Journey of Discipline and Transformation Fasting is often reduced to a conversation about weight loss, but my journey has been about so much more. From January 6 to January 27 , I undertook a fast that challenged not just my body, but also my mind and spirit. It wasn’t easy, but the process gave me clarity, self-discipline, and a deeper understanding of my body’s resilience. I want to share my experience—not just the numbers, but the way fasting reshaped my daily habits, my mental clarity, and my approach to health. Tracking the Physical Shifts 📉 Weight Loss During the Fast – I started at 197.8 lbs on January 6, and by January 27, I weighed 172.8 lbs . That’s over 25 pounds lost , but what mattered more was how my body felt . 💖 Blood Pressure Improvement – My BP started at 150/102 and by the end of my fast, I recorded 120/80 on January 21 and even 108/67 on January 27. My cardiovascular system was responding to the cleansing effects ...

 The Path to Greatness: What Must the Warrior Do? Yesterday, we explored an essential question: How does a warrior learn? Today, we take the next step— What must the warrior do to become great? This question holds weight, not just in words, but in action. It challenges us to examine the very nature of greatness and wisdom. What is Greatness? Recently, one of my elders transitioned to the ancestral realm. During his crossover ceremony, I had the honor of pouring libations and speaking on his legacy. I found myself saying, Elder Tony was a great man. But then I paused and corrected myself— Elder Tony was a wise man. There's a difference. A great person leaves behind holes in reality—gaps so deep that it may take generations to fill them. Their presence, their work, their impact shifts the world around them in such a way that when they are gone, the absence is felt profoundly. A wise person also leaves holes in reality. But they do something more. They prepare others to fill those...

 Understanding Power Dynamics: Insights from an African Proverb Court of hawks In the wealth of wisdom that African proverbs offer, there lies a profound understanding of life’s intricacies. From Ghana comes a saying that speaks volumes about power, justice, and resilience: "The chicken is never declared innocent in the court of hawks." At first glance, this proverb might seem to simply reflect the natural world's harsh realities. Yet, it unfolds layers of meaning about societal structures, justice, and the importance of recognizing where real power lies. Let's explore the depths of this wisdom, drawing lessons vital for our empowerment and growth. The essence of this Ghanaian proverb extends far beyond the literal interpretation of animals in nature.
