Social media

Image via Wikipedia What if Nat Turner/ Had a facebook or twitter/ World would be different/ Those of us on this Journey have accepted the fact that we are agents of change in this world. We have decided to develop ourselves and have realized the small changes that we make in ourselves ripple out into the world. Being a successful agent of change now-a-days has been simplified for us, but in the simplifying of our ability to reach millions we have inherited a gigantic burden. In these days we don't have the excuses that generations before have had. We unlike like our ancestors can reach out and touch thousands very inexpensively. I am one that believes that if we don't take advantage of these gifts we deserve what we get. With the introduction of social Media we have been given the power unlike any other to make change by sharing our ideas with the world. The effectiveness of this tool can be seen if we just look at what is going on in Egypt , Tunisia , and other hot spots

Victim or Victor

Image
Image by sgatto via Flickr Victim or Victor/ Words that start same end different/ Which do you select/ Victims surrender their power by passively allowing injustice to continue in their life. The only action that victims take is to moan about their plight, to anyone that will listen. A victor on the other hand challenges injustice, and in the challenge take their power into their own hands. The victor is not concerned with victory or defeat, but in making sure that justice is served. Victors force themselves to face their fears. Victims pretend their fear is not their. Victors take constructive action to change their situation. Victims practice self destructive means of accepting the situation. Although Victim and Victor both start with the letter V they are different which will you choose for your life. Brother Ha2tim SelfMasteryCoach Nation Builder HipHop Philosopha & Shaman

Image via Wikipedia Here is a short tale that I wrote for those on their personal Journey of SelfMastery. Enjoy Stories have been used/ To teach people about life/ Let's bring storiesback/ Once there was a master, who was well known for his skill in helping his students become Conscious . It was said that he had gained his knowledge from a long forgotten people, and before they left this world the gave him the secret of Life, and Death. Some even said that he was immortal,because his legend was known by the young and old. He was known to travel a certain road on a periodic journey from the mountains to the sea. He had only 7 rules (that were known throughout the world as the 7 Be's) that his disciples where to adhere to. 1. Be Truth 2. be Just 3. be rightous 4. be mindful of reciprocity 5. be in balance 6. be order 7. Be harmony children all over were taught this 7 Be's because their parents hoped that one day they would be the Disciple of this Master, and m

Dive in

Image
Image via Wikipedia I dove into life/ And the ripples effected/ All eternity/ Ever feel like the little kid sitting on the side of the pool to scared to jump into the water because its to cool. Not realizing that once you get in your body would adjust and begin to feel good. I have found that life is the same way. For years i was that kid, and in some ways I still am, but unlike a lot of people every now and then I jump my ass in the water. One of the blessings I have always had in life were those type of mentors that believe in pushing you in the pool (life). They did not mind pushing me in because they knew they had the ability to jump in and save me if I began to drown. They also knew that I had the skill to swim, i just needed that rude nudge to get me in the water. Today i would like to personally thank all those that pushed and then taught me to dive into life. those brave masters that demonstrated and then forced me to learn the fact that "with nothing ventured noth

I have linked this video to one of my older blogs, because what they call chi we call axe' so watch and let me know what you think. Check out this video. I know I am on a Kung Fu kick right now, but I love that movie. It helped shape who I am today.

All you need-Ha2ku

Image via Wikipedia 12 notes in music/ 26 letters to write/ you have all you need/ I heard an interview with Quincy Jones , and the elder spoke on the fact that their only 12 notes in the music scale . I was amazed at this fact, because over the period of my life all of the different music I have been listening to was all composed or played on the spot with only 12 notes. Artist are able to take just 12 notes and combine them into an infinite amount of musical ideas. Then I began to think about the 26 letters of the alphabet and how we have been able to combine just 26 letters in different ways and create an infinite amount of stories, poems, essay, speeches, sermons, love letters and etc.. After realizing that I began to wonder what was I lacking in life. Perhaps I was looking at the quantity of things that I didn't have rather than the quality of things that I do. Just thinking about the 12 and the 26 and the infinite possibilities that flow from them. I have decided that

Chemical burn

Chemicals can burn/ but our actions burn deeper/ leaving marks on lives/ I challenge you to really look at this video and listen to the issue that are dealt with in less than two minutes. They deal with  heroes, sacrifice, initiation, God, man relationship with God, and hitting bottom. The most critical piece for me was the question about god. "If our fathers were are models for God what does that say about God?" being a young man coming up with no father in the house this question hit a nerve when i first saw it. Then working with young men I could see how this question played out in others lives. I want go into it today maybe later, but I want you to look at this question for yourself "If our fathers were our Models for God what does that say about God?".  Let's take it a little deeper "if our parents were our models for God what does that say about God?". Just when i thought that was the toughest question my youngest son walks in the room.

Others opinions

Image
Other's opinions/ Of you do not matter much/ Follow what you know/ Check out video: Have you built your life around how others see you. as doctor Phil would ask "how is that working for you?". Many people are running around wearing mask pretending, rather than seeking authenticity. Why is it that this world encourage us to be the same. We should dress alike, act alike, and etc.. In these modern times we have learned to extend our lives through modern science, but I don't think we are really living. Shaping our lives to fit into the small views of others. Many of us live our lives like superman hiding our true power, and pulling it out only in emergencies. We don't want to outshine those around us. I say let your your light shine starting today. Start your Journey. Brother Ha2tim SelfMasteryCoach Nation Builder HipHop Philosopha & Shaman
