Visionaries From The Trenches Are Essential To The Culture

Rick Ross Synopsis

In episode 8, I dissected both of Rick Ross's books "Hurricanes" his Memoire and "Perfect Day To Boss Up" his most recent project. Both books were beautifully written. A lot of knowledge was given at the expense of the boss, furthermore, it's up to us to be practitioners of what he was preaching in those books. The principles themselves are top tier, but we have to do our best to see them through. There were a couple of points that bridged the gap between the two books, how his big homies being locked up prompted him to go all out for rap, Dj Sam Sneak being a brand ambassador for him before he brought him on the team, and the correctional officer debacle.

Transcending The Trenches

In episode 7, I sat down with my guy Brandon and we discussed, business, politics, and mindset development. All areas that people in urban communities need to acquire knowledge on. Ultimately, this will increase the mental awareness and agility of our people who have been oppressed and socially engineered into the bottom of the totem polls.

Close Haters

In episode 6, I exploit the term "Close Haters", which is people who have witnessed you struggle and may have been apart of your support system, but as your dreams materialised they started to hate or they fell into the entitlement trap. This causes intense disagreements and conflict within your inner orbit and now these individuals don't get chance to enjoy your dreams with you. Some of us deal with "Close Haters" differently, you have people who treat those people aggressively and then you have others who take a more passive approach. The case is, some of have these people in our circle, but we're too blinded by love to identify them.

Are You Mature Enough To Save Those Who Weren't Supportive?

In episode 5, I posed a question "Are you mature enough to double back and save those who weren't supportive of your vision initially?" After expressing my sentiments I opened the floor for callers to come in and give their perspective on the subject. All in all, the bottom line is there will be people who support your every endeavour and there will be others who will be more prudent, but your vision is your vision, whether people support you or not It shouldn't affect you supporting yourself. Lastly, once you materialise your vision those who were indecisive will be at the mercy of your discretion. "PROTECT YOUR VISION."

Visionaries From The Trenches Are Essential To The Culture

In this episode 4, I talk about how essential visionaries are from the trenches and the impact they have on these harsh environments. These individuals have the ability to see past the rat race, social comparisons, and all the other things that usually prevent people from constructing visions and seeing them through. Visionaries give life to the dead not literally, but figuratively, by inspiring the people around them to dream. They also understand the importance of producing results to persuade those who are nearsighted.
