Listen to me,
I know you think running the streets makes you a man, that you’re “doin’ you,” and grown. But it doesn’t.
In fact, when you’re flexing the fake macho, you’re actually showing the depth of your feminine programming.
That’s right.
If you were truly confident, being the man you were meant to be, you wouldn’t have to prove anything. Nobody could get in your head, influencing your behavior. You couldn’t be dominated and controlled, with the same grip real men put on women.
No way! You’d stand tall with masculine truth.
Bro, I’m not fooled. You’re soft, broken down by a single mother household, and a system that has your number.
Playing the beast is just another way of seeking approval, betraying your fears, and limited truth.
We all know life in the hood is rough, deadly in fact. And nobody wants to be helpless.
But repping your village isn’t a badge of honor.
The truth is, you’re on mental lockdown, stuck on a go-nowhere urban hamster wheel, blind to what you really need and oblivious to prospects for a come-up.
You’re average, predictable, and stigmatized.
Nobody ever told you that life’s a thinking man’s game, and winners are smart. You laughed at guys that went to school, studied, and graduated. Now they’re working the system, making real bucks, while you’re scrounging for scraps, thinking you’re ahead of the game. Right!
Get out of the wilderness.
You can’t ride on “what if’s” forever.
If you’re for real, the first thing you must do is dream big. Imagine a world of possibilities.
Now, identify something you’re good at. If you don’t know, find out. Because self-mastery and talent are your keys to a new life.
But you also need to create tangible goals and reach them. This means consistency and patience are vital. So put your ego and teeth-sucking, head bobbing, female reactions on hold. Stand firm like a grown man – which you are!
You see, if your mind is right, and you’re living your truth, people will help you. And if there’s a secret to success, this is it – people help who they like. It doesn’t get simpler than that.
Wake-up!
There’s a universe of realities for you to conquer, so let the fantasies go.
You’re a man, and that should be all the motivation you need.
Until next time,
Brick
