The fun way to overcome procrastination!

A good way (i think) to overcome procrastination is to take the moments when you really dont want to do something (like she said in the picture above)and do it at that time.

And when you do it keep score of the times when you overcame procrastination.

Measure it against the times when you said fuck it and just didnt do it.

And after a month see what your score is.

If you have a good score this gives you the right not only to brag all over your blog about it and to your family and friends, but also to put down anybody else who chronically procrastinates (which is my favorite benefit actually).

Also teach other people this method (you learn better when you teach others).

Im going to start doing this tomorrow LOL (my score is now 0-1).

been real busy lately

will be back with well written posts

will be back to give love to my blog buddies real soon

peace out

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ONE OF THE GREATEST LEADER WE EVER HAD: BUT NOBODY REMEMBERS HIM!!!

THE HONORABLE MARCUS MOSIAH GARVEY 1887 -1940

Without this man there would be no Elijah Muhammad (who was in the United Negro Approvement Association ( Garvey's Organization) branch in Detroit) no Minister Louis Farrakhan (who first became conscious hanging out with UNIA members in Boston) no Nation of Islam and definitely no Malcolm X (both of his parents were in the local UNIA in Omaha, Nebraska.

And Marcus Garvey even stayed the night over Malcolm’s parent’s house when he came to visit the branch there.).

There would be no Kwame Nkrumah, who led the first Afrikan nation, Ghana, to liberate themselves from European colonialism, thus giving confidence to other Afrikan leaders to liberate themselves like Nnamdi Azikiwe of Nigeria, Nyerere of Tanzania, Nasser of Egypt, Ahmed Sekou Toure of Guinea and so on.

There would have been no Rastafarian movement (and you wouldn’t be walking around with locks on your head because this group popularized the style). And there definitely wouldn’t be a Bob Marley (who was a proud Rastafarian).

And guess what, there would be no Harlem Renaissance either because his news paper The Negro World (which had black writers in it from Canada, USA, the Caribbean, south America, Europe and Afrika) set up poetry contests in Harlem where local artists and poets could compete with each other.

Zora Neale Hurston and other poets got their chance to display their work in the Negro World long before the Renaissance of the thirties. He established businesses all over the US through his organization employing thousands of blacks all over the world.

He created the Universal African Legion, a paramilitary group where black men were armed and was charged with the responsibility of protecting their communities. This man and his ideas singlehandedly propelled hundreds of movements into existence.

The Universal Hip Hop Parade that many went to in New York yesterday is dedicated the memory of Marcus Garvey.

The Black Power movement of the sixties was a restimulation of Garvey’s ideas of Black Nationalism.

The list goes on and on, but yet I didn’t hear about him until I became conscious. Many people are not taught about him in grade school or college.

That is a real shame. I just did this little post to pay tribute to man I hold in high esteem, but to also give you a taste of significance of this man that many of us don’t know about.

I hope you do some research on him. I think you will be very enlightened by his life and ideas.

Mr Garvey I thank you for showing us how great we've always been and how great we will be again. I thank you for sacrificing personal fullfilment and happiness to struggle to the death for our liberation and freedom world wide.

I thank you for creating a blueprint for empowerment that the next leaders of the race can follow to liberate ourselves of the domination of our enemies.

Even though you arent given the credit that you are due I've found you in the world wind. The enemy tried to suppress your memory but i found you, when all hope was gone waiting for me with open arms.

From this day forward I make the declaration to be a "race man" as you put it, and use my gifts, talents and whatever else God gave me to put to the total liberation of all Afrikan people worldwide as the goal I will be constantly striving for.

If I can make a fraction of the contribution you made for us, my life would have meaning.

I will dedicate everyday of my life from now on to achieving the mission that you and other before you and since have tried to achieve.

This is my promise, this is my destiny.

ONE GOD, ONE AIM ONE DESTINY!

May your memory live on for a thousand genrations

Introducing the Cure ALL for all diseases, infections, cancers, viruses and illnesses! (Please dont call the cops on me)

This is the master herbalist Dr. Richard Schulze.

He has cured himself of heart disease (which the doctors said he would die from if he didnt get surgery).

He studied under some of the greatest herbalists of the 20th century like dr. bernard jensen, dr. edwarsd shook and my favorite herbalist Dr. John Christopher.

These 4 men have combined to help cure hundreds and thousands of men, women, children and animals of hundreds of diseases and illnesses.

They students all around the world who are practicing natural healing (like myself).

He has been jailed and had his pharmacy broken into and closed down by the FBI for teaching people how to restore their health no matter what illness they have without drugs or surgery.

I have healed myself of different illnesses based on the information he has given to the world.

I have used this plague tonic on several occasions and i will tell you this ladies and gentleman, this tonic is the absolute cure to the common cold.

Whenever I have a cold or the flu (definately could use this for swine flu) i take about 30 spoonfuls and i am amazed at how fast it works.

Even if you think all of this is complete bullshit, try it for 6 weeks (you can do anything for only 6 weeks).

How to solve the crime problem in our cities (easy solutions to a seemingly enigmatic, mysterious problem)

I couldn't resist putting this picture up lol.

Some people have no idea how clueless they look to the world.

This really is a deep subject and of course today i cant talk about it the way i want to but i will try to give you the gist of why we are commiting so many crimes against each other.

Last weekend was a bloody one in Baltimore (compared with other cities and towns in the United States, not the world).

About 18 people were shot within a 6 hour time span.

Twelve people were shot at a cookout, including a two year old baby girl and a 27 year old woman (the 27 year old was shot in the chest 10 times suggesting that it might have been a crime of pasion).

Two of the 18 died while the rest are recovering.

I listened to a local radio show this morning and many of the local activists called and expressed their disgust and anguish.

Some of the locals called and gave their opinions about the issue.

I only heard a few who actually got it right or were in the ballpark.

I live in the inner city and i see horrible crimes commited all the time (unfortunately i have commited some myself).

Before i actually studied the causes of Black on Black violence i was puzzled by our violent behavior toward each other.

I think I have the reason down pact now as to why we hurt each other in such large numbers.

It has everything to do with something called misplaced aggresion or displacement.

A prominent psychologist of the early 1900's by the name of Sigmund Freud (or Sick - man Freud, depending on how you want to look at it) wanted to know why people react the way they do when they are worried, scared, freightened or anxiety ridden.

Through his studies he came up with some predictable characteristics that people exhibit when they are anxious called defense mechanisms.

When a person wants to shield themselves from shame, guilt, fear, anger, sadness or any other negative emotion they act out one or more of these mechanisms to help themseleves cope with their problems.

Some defense mechanisms that many of you are aware of are denial - refusing to accept reality for what it is; distortion - twisting your perception of reality to avoid dealing with your problems; or repression - pushing thoughts that you dont want to think about out of your mind because you cant deal with them right now.

Well another defense mechanism that many of us act out (especially black women) is displacement.

This is when somebody else made you angry and instead of taking your anger out on the people who put you in that position you take it out on a less threatening innocent target (like when a woman hollers and beats her child because she is mad at her husband, or when a cop violates a man's rights and instead of getting back at that police officer he goes to a club and beats up a brother that steps on his new nikes).

See the government has completely given up on the citizens in most inner cities.

The government has created poor neighborhoods through their policies.

Some neighborhoods and houses in the ghetto arent even fit for animal habitation.

There is lead in the water, the kids go to dilapidated schools, the black men have been denied job opportunities because the government allows large numbers of illegal aliens to come in and take the jobs they would normally have.

The government disproportionately locks up inner city dwellers and actually invests more money in their incarceration and procurement in the criminal justice system than they do in educating them (30 to 50,000 dollars a year per inmate compared to about 10,000 dollars a year or less per student).

The conditions that the federal government imposes on the poor in this country make them mad (there is no way they cannot be angry at this betrayal of their humanity).

So instead of taking their anger, frustration and anxiety out on the government that put them in this horrible situation they transfer or "displace" that anger on less threatening targets (each other).

So when you see black people hurting one another, shooting one another, stealing from one another, raping one another; then you must know that they are taking out their anger on their neighbor, cousin, friend, loved one because they are afraid to attack the ones who made them put them in that horrible condition to begin with; WHITE MEN.

Dr. Amos Wilson, a famous pan afrikanist black psychologist, said that "the reason why black men kill each other so much is because they have not yet decided to kill white men!"

Which means that we as men, have not yet decided to stop the government from discriminating against us and treating us (and our women and children) in an inhumane way.

And until we make a solid plan to do this we will always have violence because that underlying frustration and anger has to go somewhere.
