In the immortal words of the brother Malcolm X, the future belongs to those who prepare for it today. Today we prepare by NOT looking for a fig. This concept stems from stoic philosophy made (notable) in meditations by Marcus Aurelius. Written in the late second century by Marcus Aurelius it is one of the few books that has stood the test of time. To look for a fig in Winter is a fools errand. Today we discuss why... _____________________ Listen Time: 18 minutes Intro/Outro song: 'Together' by M...

I understand that this World we currently live in is confusing. There’s so much stimuli and so much information that it’s extremely difficult to pull fact from friction and make a decision.

I can’t tell you exactly what to do but this show is designed to share the greatest pieces of guidance I’ve received throughout my short years ...

We can all agree, It’s easy to start but maybe not everyone’s takeoff can be like a rocket. It’s something that majority of people manage but the magic is in the sustainability and completion. Think about it, with anything you do, anyone can start it…but the true question is can you stay for the rough ascent through the atmosphere and can...

Today, I want to share a critical piece of advice that changed my perspective towards everything. A common piece of knowledge that frequently gets overlooked. With the recent shift in power-struggle, many of the concepts that built today’s world are growing cobwebs. My intent is to not to teach you anything new but to give a stark reminder to how we made it this far. Despite your age, status or occupation, Sometimes when overwhelmed, a reminder is all we need to set us on the right path. _______...

"It’s an irrefutable truth that no single person is entirely the same. We may have many similarities but there will always be differences. It’s the things that make us unique. God created various colors, builds and sizes so we could distinguish each other. If we didn’t have those differences, humans wouldn’t exist. Unfortunately, instead of using those differences as secular highlights, they were used to divide people. To destroy peace. People saw those differences as threats. Instead of making ...

Let's Discuss...In the Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the duality of the human subconscious is expertly mapped. Jekyll is a well-respected scientist that married the science of evil in human nature. He was a pussy that wanted to draw out his “evil side” through experimentation. Dr. Jekyll achieved this through Mr. Hyde, his evil alter ego. Plain and simple, Hyde (much like the dark side of your inner warrior) don’t take shit from anyone. Book Available: HERE...

Did you know that nutrition is Dualitous? That means that in order to be healthy , we must consider nutrition as two different entities. Today we will talk about nutrition of the mind and the body. By doing so, we begin to do what was seen before as impossible and that’s regain control of our lives. This is where ultimate power originates. Because once you can begin to interpret and more importantly understand the why behind your thoughts and actions, you can in theory live a more proactive and ...
