Tribal Quotes Revisited Essence Over Assets: Redefining Success for the Conscious Mind   A Symbol of Unity and Prosperity Greetings, Brothers and Sisters of the GNJ Tribe. Today, we dive deep into a profound proverb that resonates with the core of our Africentric journey: "Success is not so much what we have as it is what we are." This timeless wisdom, articulated by the insightful Jim Rohn, invites us to recalibrate our understanding of success. In a world that often measures worth by material accumulation, this proverb challenges us to look inward and recognize that the true essence of success is rooted in our being, not in our belongings. The Essence of Success: Success, a concept often portrayed through the lens of material wealth and external achievements, holds a different connotation within the tapestry of our cultural narrative.

  The Power of Progress: Embracing the Journey of Personal Growth Progress Brothers and Sisters, in the hustle of life's journey, we often find ourselves at crossroads. The decisions we make, the silence we keep, and the paths we choose not to tread upon all have profound implications on our destiny. Today, I bring forth the wisdom of Henri Frederic Amiel, echoing a timeless truth: "He who is silent is forgotten; he who does not advance falls back; he who stops is overwhelmed; out distanced, crushed; he who ceases to grow becomes smaller; he who leaves off, gives up; the condition of standing still is the beginning of the end." This proverb is a clarion call to action, a reminder that inaction and complacency are not merely passive choices but active decisions leading towards decline. At the heart of our journey, the essence of progress is undeniable. It is the fuel that propels us forward, the light that guides us through darkness, and the strength that uplifts us in tim
