In this matrix we call life, we pay for what we don’t know. If your car breaks down you take it to an auto mechanic, if you get sick you go see a doctor. In society today we are more than ever dependent on things outside of us, especially us African Americans. In order to make better choices and change we must educate ourselves and the youth, the next generation of people. Majority of our mom dads and grandparents couldn’t teach us anything about finances, proper diet fitness and a host of many necessities to navigate through life abundantly at our highest potential. That is because they were condition from birth. We are all slaves to a system that view us as expendable assets, the biggest lie in America is the American dream and that we the people are free. We are nothing more than a code in this matrix tracked by a social security number, your slave tag.

We are controlled via mass media politics and financial hardship. These three major key points along with generational conditioning, we are forever captive unless we emancipate ourselves from mental slavery. There is this saying “You are what you eat” which is literally true. The body cells are forever replacing its self with new cells, due to the things you consume on a daily basis in your diet, you either build better new cells or prep your body for destruction. This is also relavent for the mind and mental. What you consume every day unconsciously knowing is affecting your well-being. You are distracted by mass media from what I like to call “The bigger picture”. We are so lost in what they are telling us, instead of what they are not telling us.

That is the bigger picture, the things they keep from you. They know we are more powerful united and educated, which is a glitch in the matrix. We let politicians govern our lives and tell us what’s best for our families, Truth is they know nothing. At the end of the day their well-being is the number one priority. Keeping you ignorant and oblivious is the only way to maintain control and authority. We must learn to earn budget and invest, to create financial stability which gives us financial freedom. We must learn the difference between an asset and a liability. Wealth is generated by appreciating assets and commodities, businesses real estate stocks bonds mutual funds and cryptocurrency.

Your nine to five should fuel your side hustle, your side hustle should fuel your business in which fuels investments. Anything you acquire in life and don’t invest in it slowly depreciates, weather it’s your relationships your craft or yourself no one is coming to save you. Without proper education and reconditioning we will all perish for the lack of knowledge. The richest man isn’t necessarily the man with the most money.

The secret to success can be found in the knowledge acquired from failure
