Overcoming Trap Life, Took More Than Just Wanting To Live A Better Existence - I Spent Years Having To Deprogramme Myself, Holistically, Of The Countless Wrong Principles, Values, Ethics, Beliefs, And Constructs, That I Had Grown Up Being Taught - When You Unlearn Who You Aren’t, By Actively Working Towards Learning Who Believe Yourself To Be, You Quickly Learn That You’ve Always Had The Propensity To Become All You May Be... Sounds Trippy Right, How Can Years Of Substance Abuse, Sexual Immorality, Corruption, And Downright Skullduggery Be Used To Craft New Leaders Of The Free World? If You Believe, Anything Is Possible, That’s One Lesson I Know To Has Always Rung True.
In This Episode, I Shed Some Light On A Set Of Experiences I’ve Had In My Personal, And Professional Life, Over The Past Few Months - Being A Professional Creative, May Be A Choice For Some, Yet For Many Millennial’s & Gen-Z’s, It’s A Life Calling To Serve Something Greater Than Yourself - As I Begin To Grow Into My Own As A Businessman, Entrepreneur, Job Creator & Solutionist, I’m Often Reminded Of Lessons That I Learned On The Come-Up, Yet Found Myself Forgetting, As Time Wore One. “Lessons Not Learnt In Blood, Are Soon Forgotten”, That Age-Old African Adage Has Been Engrained In My Mind Since I Was 10, And I Fell Of My Bike, While Running Away From A Vicious Monster, Disguised As A Rather Cute Looking Sausage Dog... When We Fall, And Tear Some Skin Tissue, Or Momentarily Bless The Surface Of The Earth With Our Body Heat, After Having Had One Too Many Drinks, It’s Harder To Forget How We Ended Up In Said Compromising Situation, Because The Scars Tend To Be A Reminder For Us To Never Make The Same Mistakes Twice.
Not So In Business, Where Some Of Our Shortcomings Aren’t Always As Magnified As Falling Down The Stairs At The Legendary Zanzu (Rest In Party ) On Your Matric Dance Afterparty Night, Sometimes You Fall, And Have To Make A Mental Note Of That Fall, And It’s Direct Causes, As You May Not Get A Scar From The Accident. When I Fell, I Promised Myself That I Would Remember What That Felt Like, Because That’s A Place I Don’t Ever Want To Be In, Or See Anybody Else In, For That Matter. The Reason I Grind So Hard, Is Because I Refuse To Go Back To The Bottom, Or Continue Seeing Any Of My People Confined To The Bottom Of Any Societal Construct, That’s Not Where We Belong - While Our People Were Tricked Into Oppressive Ways, Before Being Trained How To Kill Ourselves, And Sell Each Other Into Slavery, We Are Actually Far Greater As Beings, More Powerful As Creators, And Deeply Connected As Spiritual Creations, As Compared To Those Who Oppressed Us In The First Place.
“The Greatest Weapon, In The Hands Of The Oppressor, Is The Mind Of The Oppressed.” - Steve Biko
My Summer Diet Goal, Is To Help Free The Modern Day Slaves, Those Still In Bondage To The German Whips, And Blood Diamond Chains, It’s A Thankless Process, One That Often Puts You In The Belly Of The Beast, And Often Having To Fight Against Those Who You’re Trying To Save, Because 250 Years Of Slavery & Colonization Takes A While To Filter Out.
While It’s Not Yet Uhuru, The Children Of Africa Must Think Freely, And In Accordance With The Spirit.
