This narrative is a clarion call to all who have been caught in the snare of waiting for that 'perfect moment' or the 'right opportunity' to manifest. Let's unravel the fallacy of waiting and illuminate the path to empowerment, self-determination, and cultural resonance. The idea of waiting for a miraculous change is a seductive illusion that hampers our growth and dims the brilliance of our potential. Here's how we can break free and step into our power: The Myth of the Perfect Moment: Understand that waiting for the perfect moment often leads to missed opportunities.

Journey to Self-Unity: A Powerful Inside-Out Approach to Personal Transformation

Image
  Introduction: Embrace the Power of Self-Unity The drumbeat of unity resonates across continents, but unity isn't just an external concept. It's an internal compass guiding us towards self-discovery and personal mastery. In the Gye-Nyame Journey (GNJ), we believe that unity or Umoja, as we call it, starts within ourselves. Understanding the richness and depth of Umoja can catapult you into a transformative journey towards self-mastery. In this blog post, we unravel the threads of self-unity and how it can change your life. As a next step in this journey, we invite you to join our free e-course FreeGNJEcourse.com designed to help you cultivate and embrace self-unity. Section 1: The Inside Story: Unpacking Umoja In GNJ, we consider five integral parts of our existence: Intuition, Mental, Emotional, Spiritual, and Physical. Unity within these areas forms the bedrock of self-unity and leads to an alignment of external actions. Umoja is more than a societal tenet. It's a power

We welcome everyone to join us on this next 7 week journey. I don’t know what you are reaching for but whatever it is we can help you here at the Journey.

#NguzoSabaChallenge 1

  #NguzoSabaChallenge 1 Great Umoja: We are in the final week of this cycle. So let me explain how this #NguzoSabaChallenge system works before we get into the Rant. actually it will fit right in with our exploration of Umoja & Imani today. This whole system came out of following the process and as I went through it I logged in to my rants, blogs and discussion with the tribe. Especially with my mindset group, that helped me line it all up and they forced me to ask questions that I never would have really explored before. Oftentimes I get trapped in my own head and it is good for me to talk with others that have taken on the responsibility of this journey so that we can flesh out the idea and apply the system. Please understand that some of the stuff I write about I am not only talking to you I am also talking to myself. The whole piece on Kuumba/Imani was about the importance and power of asking questions, and for the last few months through the mindset I had to do this for myself

Unity Of Kuumba

  Unity of Kuumba Great Umoja in this week of Kuumba: I am excited to begin this week. I think that we need to go a little further in Kuumba to help you create the practices that will help you move to the next level. I believe (Imani) there is no better place for this to happen than the week of Kuumba. So let's jump in! “We need to shift our thinking about Kuumba.” Great Umoja and today we are once again talking about the Unity of Kuumba. We will return to this combination many more times, in fact in this system we will return and converse about all the combinations of the Principles over and over again. This helps us move through the 3 levels of learning. Today we want to talk about how we can use Kuumba to strengthen our Umoja, and I will share some of the GNJ methods so that you can incorporate them, or have an idea for your path. “Groups, Organizations and Societies that use Kuumba to reinforce Umoja will flourish and grow.” We spoke yesterday about the 3 levels of learning on

Unified Purpose

  Unified Purpose Great Umoja: Oh my goodness! We have made it into the week of Nia, and now she has to be our focus this week. I love the principle of Nia, because Nia gives or should give us our “WHY”. Hopefully you have found your Nia, and are moving in it. If not, hopefully we can help you with that during this week. We can at least put it on your mind so that you can start attracting her to you. Family, I need to stress the importance of asking questions during this week. When we ask questions, and we are genuinely looking for answers the Universe responds. We might not like the answer we get, or may not even understand it at that time, but It answers us. So, if you have not identified your Nia, this is the week to practice a lot of humbleness and ask questions. “Our Nia is the reason why we wake up in the morning, and doing our Nia is what allows us to live out of wholeness. That's why doing your Nia is so important in life.” We are on Umoja today and I want to focus on the c
