You're man. Act poor. Act broke. Act like a useless man. Have more than you show and speak less than you know. It'll save you from unnecessary problems.
You were told you were born a sinner so you would spend your whole life begging for forgiveness from the people oppressing you. You were never a sinner. You were a customer.
Your biggest flex after 30 isn’t your Car.
Your biggest flex after 30 isn’t your House.
Your biggest flex after 30 isn’t your Work.
It is waking up with energy, strength and a body that still does what you ask of it.
Elon Musk once said:
“Don't ever attach yourself to a person, a place, a company, an organization, or a project.
Attach yourself to a mission, a calling, and a purpose only.
That's how you keep your power and your peace.”
SCHOOL IS A VIOLATION OF THE HUMAN SPIRIT
School is a violation of the human spirit because it systematically demands the unnatural.
The forced stillness of bodies meant to move, the imposed silence of minds meant to question and the uniform pace of souls that unfold according to their own mysterious rhythms. Dick Gregory’s words cut to the bone of this industrial inheritance. Children know, in their bones and nervous systems that they were not designed to sit boxed and still for hours while their life force is managed, measured and redirected into compliance.
When they fidget, wander or resist, the system labels the resistance a disorder rather than recognizing it as the spirit’s healthy refusal to be colonized. The deeper violation is the theft of sovereignty over one’s own tempo.
In the conventional classroom, learning is externalized, timed and ranked. The child’s innate curiosity is replaced by the fear of falling behind someone else’s schedule. The super rich quietly protect their own from this machinery precisely because they understand that self paced environments preserve initiative, depth and creative power.
Public systems by contrast require recess as a pressure release valve so the artificial containment does not explode. In this light, school as currently structured functions less as a place of awakening than as an early training ground in self abandonment—the practice of overriding the body’s wisdom, the mind’s natural questions and the spirit’s unique timing in order to become manageable.
The human spirit thrives in conditions of movement, genuine inquiry and self-directed rhythm. Anything that systematically replaces those with stillness, obedience and external pacing is not merely imperfect education but an ongoing offense against the living essence of what we are.
Make yourself so busy, disciplined, and determined that you don't have time to worry about what’s happening in other people’s lives, make pointless comparisons, or hold irrational opinions. Stay focused and devoted to yourself.
Stop defending religion, go study its history. How did Christianity and Islam come to Africa? How did your ancestors become Christian or Muslim? What did they believe before? Don't just inherit it, research it.
