This 1-hour Stanford lecture by Joel Peterson will teach you more about negotiation and getting what you want than most people learn in years. Bookmark it and give it an hour, no matter what.
The system has brainwashed people to believe that CHOLESTEROL is the cause of heart disease.
IT IS NOT.
The process of heart disease begins with INSULIN RESISTANCE.
Insulin resistance is a condition caused by years of eating sugar and refined carbs.
When cells become resistant to insulin, blood glucose remains elevated.
This triggers chronic inflammation and oxidative stress that injure the inner lining of blood vessels.
The body repairs these injuries by forming plaques.
These plaques narrow the arteries, causing increased blood pressure.
This leads to hypertension, heart attacks and stroke.
If we treat insulin resistance early, we reduce the foundation on which heart disease develops.

I have some advice for young men newly employed,
When you get employed:
β’ Be grateful to God, your parents, your mentors and your boss for this opportunity
β’ Work hard
β’ Respect your employer
β’ Adhere to your employer's rules and protocols
β’ Embrace the mission and vision of the employer
However, if working for your employer becomes unbearable due to other reasons,
β’ Quit respectfully
β’ Follow the procedures of quitting as written in your contract or employment letter
β’ Return your employer's resources in your custody
β’ Handover politely and thank your employer for giving you an opportunity
β’ Leave with a clean conscience
Don't be chaotic, abusive and contemptuous on your way out.
Don't think you are smarter than your employer.
The employer you are disrespecting gave you a livelihood when you were seeking a footing and direction.
The employer may not have paid you to your satisfaction, but be polite.
Don't go bad mouthing your employer, speaking nastily, and broadcasting your foul mouth while disclosing what is considered private policies, programs, products or services of your former workplace.
Leave courteously.
This way, you open room for better opportunities, newer networks and better leverage.
Don't be a rude employee. Other employers will fear giving you opportunities in the future because they don't trust you.
Be courteous when you close the door behind you, the universe will be kind to you on your way out.
I told you that all those politicians masquerading as opposition are what we call POTEMKIN or ASTROTURF OPPOSITION.
But you insulted me.
Do you now see the game clearly?
They aimed to discredit genuine clamour for economic transformation, scatter powerful voices and legitimize Government's economic agenda.
This is their mechanism of existence:
INFILTRATION
Movements and social media platforms were quietly infiltrated by individuals loyal to the establishment. These individuals mismanaged the platforms to discredit social media voices in the eyes of the public.
"You have been paid."
"You are tutam."
"How much have they paid you to post this?"
These infiltrators also steered the platforms away from achieving the core goals by creating unnecessary slogans.
"Wantam"
"Tutam"
Example: X users, X posts, X spaces.
CO-OPTATION AND COMPROMISE
Leaders of a genuine grassroots movement are persuaded, bribed, or pressured into watering down their demands.
They are given lucrative platform access and media coverage but are kept on a tight leash, transforming radical critics into moderate voices that the establishment can comfortably manage.
Example: ODM and BREAD-BASED ESTABLISHMENT
STATE-MANUFACTURED OPPOSITION
The state actively creates, funds, and legitimates smaller political parties. These groups appear to challenge the government on minor, superficial issues, but they never truly threaten the ruling regime's control over the state.
"Please don't protest. We shall defeat him on election day. He has no numbers."
Sheep: "Yeees!"
Example DCP and LINDA MWANANCHI
The state played its cards strategically and outmanoeuvred all of us.
Now, we are back to:
"You are a Kikuyu."
"You are a Kalenjin."
"You are a Luo."
Don't under-estimate the STATE.
Anyway, one day, GRASS WILL GROW.
Good morning,
A new week has begun,
WAKE UP!
β’ Move your body.
β’ Work on your goals.
β’ Learn a skill.
β’ Build your business.
β’ Protect your health.
This week,
Choose discipline over comfort,
Choose action over excuses,
Choose consistency.
