Is Your Personal Economy in a Recession?

Image
  https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-wealth-you-carry--69782826 Is Your Personal Economy in a Recession? We talk a lot about "buying Black" and supporting the community, and that is essential. But there is a step before the dollar changes hands that we often miss. In today's episode, we dive into the principle of Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics) , but not in the way you might expect. We are looking at the "economics of the self." If you are emotionally bankrupt, spiritually overdrawn, and mentally in debt to fear, how can you contribute to the collective wealth? We discuss why the first business you must manage is the business of You , and how taking inventory of your internal assets changes the game for everyone around you. You don't want to miss this perspective shift. Get the Nguzo Saba Narrative Map Stop guessing where you fit in.

Unity Ain’t Just a Word: Practicing What We Pledge

Image
Unity Ain’t Just a Word: Practicing What We Pledge Today, I found myself musing on the principle of Umoja , or Unity . I went through my morning meditation and workout, but something was missing — I forgot to recite the Gye-Nyame Pledge . That may not seem like a big deal to some, but it made me pause and reflect. Why do we pledge? Why do we say these words each day? The Power of a Daily Pledge A pledge is more than recitation — it’s a daily reminder of who you are, what you stand for, and what you’re building. Whether you're building a business, raising a family, strengthening a tribe, or transforming a community — Unity is required . Umoja is not passive. It’s not a cool word to post. It’s not just a hashtag. It’s a practice . Or maybe the better word is praxis — not just belief, but action . Daily. Deliberate. Intentional. Practice Over Perfection A pledge helps ground that action. It reminds us not just of where we’re going — but who we must become to get ther...

From Victory to Momentum: My Next 21-Day Challenge

Image
Peace, Tribe! I just came out of a 21-day fast , and let me tell you—I’m on a high! My mind is clear, my body feels lighter, and my spirit is in alignment. I’m celebrating this victory because it’s a big deal. Discipline is no small feat, and when you walk through the fire and come out stronger, you need to recognize it. But here’s the thing—this high isn’t something I want to come down from. So, I’m stepping right into my next 21-day challenge . Why? Because momentum is a gift, and when the energy is flowing, you don’t stop—you build. This next challenge is about keeping that clarity, pushing myself further, and re-dedicating to the principles that keep me grounded in the Gye-Nyame Journey . This ain’t just about me, though. I’m sharing this because I want you to walk with me. Let’s grow together. Let’s elevate. Let me break it down for you. 21 Days of Re-Commitment These next 21 days are about getting back to the practices that define who we are as a tribe. Gye-Nyame isn’t just somet...

Gye-Nyame Pledge

Image
Image via Wikipedia I am swamped these days and don't have a lot of time so I have to keep sending you to my archives. Here is the Gye-Nyame Pledge with corrections. Gye-Nyame Pledge   I am a Gye-Nyame wo/man I was born for greatness. My greatness comes from my potent center. I pledge to find and connect with my center. I pledge to build my spirit, mind and body. I pledge to use my hands to build a better world, for myself, my loved ones, and my community. I pledge to use my mind to think deeper, further, & higher to create a better reality for myself. I pledge to live my life and go beyond all of my self imposed limitations. I pledge to promote the principles of a Gye-Nyame Warrior & to assist all of those who are seeking the path of success. I pledge all of these things first to myself, my teachers, to all of my relations and to my Higher power. Axe! Axe! Axe!
