Busy not doing/ Nothing is consuming time/ To busy to grow/ On this journey we have to make sure that we just don't move for movement sake. Sometimes we can over crowd our day with absolutely nothing, and when someone disturbs our empty day in which we are doing nothing; we get upset. Now, we have to take some days for ourselves and do nothing, but the days I'm referring to now are different. These days can be marked by a complaint about not having enough time to complete our taks, but you may have had 10 FB updates in an hour, been letting everyone know whats going on with you through your tweets,  you may have viewed 5 YouTube videos about unrelated subjects, and you are in the midst of 3 different text conversations. Come on fam....? We become so busy in unproductive activities that we end up pushing what is important or what we say is important  to the back of our life. Settle down, put down your nothing and complete your task. Trust me FB will be there they just hi

Here is your blog, so join the Journey: http://gyenyamejourney.blogspot.com/2010/12/smoke-mirrors.html Ha2ku: Snow greets this mornig/ Winter is for reflection/ Slow down and enjoy/ Ha2ku by ha2tim Usually when people are sad, they dont do anything.

Image via Wikipedia Smoke and Mirror used/ To throw you off your life path/ Certify yourself/ Where can you go to get permission to pursue your life path? Who can you talk to be allowed to do what you were born to do? These may sound like stupid questions, but many of us are looking for just that. We have been groomed to stand in line, wait our turn, and have fun only during recess. We have been taught to value a person not by the Wisdom they may possess, but by their degrees or certifications. The old bait and switch trick has been worked on us.  Beware smoke and mirrors are in effect. These are tricks to keep an enemy or subordinates confused. The only way that someone without power or lack of superior numbers can win a battle is through trickery, and we have been tricked. We spend our lives pursuing others permission and certification when in fact you were born with a stamp of approval. Understand; that I am not saying to stop learning, by all means get knowledge , but get

Image via Wikipedia Here is a blog from my archives about battleing demons, read it and kick some ass. Hahahaha: http://gyenyamejourney.blogspot.com/2010/08/demons-ha2ku-by-ha2tim.html Here is your new blog: http://gyenyamejourney.blogspot.com/2010/12/paradox-ha2ku.html Words of wisdom lead us to success. When we allow them to echo in our minds they tend to chase away foolishness. I challenge you not to just read these words but reflect on the message that they have for you. Here is your quotes: Without courage, wisdom bears no fruit. -Baltasar Gracian Whatever task you undertake, do it with all your heart and soul. Always be courteous, never be discouraged. Beware of him who promises something for nothing. Do not blame anybody for your mistakes and failures. Do not look for approval except the consciousness of doing your best. -Bernard Mannes baruch Time is our most valuable asset, yet we tend to waste it, kill it, and spend it rather than invest it. -Jim Rohn Brother Ha2

Image via Wikipedia Paradox is life/ In this mystery we live/ Constantly between/ We live in between extremes. For life to exist it has to dance in between the opposites. We dont know why but that is the way it is, but we can even learn something from this. We can learn about the power of mystery. If life flows from mystery, it has to be powerful. What is mystery: something that baffles understanding and cannot be explained. In seeking to understand this mystery we learn about the power of this creation. This Universe is full of opposites that we all live with but because we have become use to them we over look them. these opposites not only create our  lives but make them livable. Take time to be amazed by this paradox today, and allow your mind to move and explore the paradox that we live in. Here is some opposites to explore and meditate on if you have some time: Male & Female Day & Night Up & Down Good & Bad Right & Left Etc. Notice that

Rather, we are today seeing a global rebellion of the oppressed against the oppressor, the exploited against the e

Image by M.C. Martin via Flickr What do you intend/ intention is your weapon/ Use to cut threw life/   For those on the journey the challenge is to learn to find your lessons not out of the mouth of wo/men, but to find them in the world and your experiences. Your story is the text book of your life and the lessons you can gain from studying yourself are vast. Dont ever under estimate the wealth of wisdom sitting unattended in your personal journey. We are all being prepared for greatness in some way, but sometimes we miss the lesson because we get caught up in life. Now that I have that out the way let me tell you a short story to help make my point and to cover the lesson in my Ha2ku. When I was younger (alot younger) I use to play football (which is full of life lessons). I was alright, and was told by many coaches that I had potential for greatness in the game. I recently ran into an old coach of mine that gave me a lesson that I had to share. This coach remembered m

Image via Wikipedia Today the blog will discuss why I use the Haiku, and how it became Ha2ku Here are quotes of the day: Winston Churchill : "It is a mistake to look too far ahead. Only one link in the chain of destiny can be handled at a time." Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved. -Winston Churchill Stress is an ignorant state. It believes that everything is an emergency. ~ Natalie Goldberg Brother Ha2tim SelfMasteryCoach Nation Builder HipHop Philosopha & Shaman check me out @ Gyenyamejourney.blogspot.com

Image by marrngtn (Manuel) via Flickr Haiku exercise/ forces thoughts into small space/ forming seeds that grow/ I have been surprised that no one has ever asked me why I use Haiku, or even inquired about why I call them ha2ku. i was challenged by a good friend one day to do haiku for a whole month, and I discovered the power of these small packages. Haiku forced me to convey an idea in 17 syllables. I had to change my whole thinking process to accomplish this task for a whole month. I have always thought that more was better. I guess I picked up this idea during my schooling. i would turn in papers and teachers would return it and tell me I needed more detail or that I needed to expand on an idea, and that is exactly what I did. Then when i moved into my career I had to learn to throw more fluff into my writing. It appeared that the whole world wanted me to write more, do more, and be more. We learn all these things growing up in the land of plenty. We base our whole self im

Image by animm via Flickr Hustle means to move/ To move faster and better/ Than competition / Are you a hustler or are you being hustled ? Living life so busy that you have no time. Moving from pillar to post, but in all your motion going no where. We are surrounded by so called hustlers, people who are in motion building monuments to nothingness. Not realizing  the true definition of hustler. To be a hustler  we have to not only be in motion, but we have to be moving toward a goal.  Hustlers have to be moving better and faster than our competition. As we travel on this Journey we have take time to lay out our goals. We have to figure out who is our competition, and we have to continually move toward improving what we do. One of the major things we have to be willing to do is find ourselves a model to learn from. Being a hustler is a learned skill and is better  for us when we can follow the paths that has been blazed. We have to always be open to new information that helps u
