Mind over matter

Discipline, control, consistency and will is what you need to practice patience. With patience as your weapon you are assured to graze through all the unnecessary negative stuff. Thus because you can stand back and look from outside before going in or dealing with a situation. Most of the times we try and apply patience while we are in the midst of a heated situation. 9 times out of 10 the execution is never going to be positive. Yes, some people have a good sense of control but this is because they have been practicing how and when to apply the patience. In general we need patience 24/7. Remember listening is a skill and hearing is natural, often times we say I am listening but yet we are answering what we are hearing. Be grateful for what you have because someone out there doesn't even have half or third of what you have. Be inspired or be the inspiration. Don't forget "Inspiration with Natty" every Wednesdays, along side one and only Daniel Perlo Bloom. Be you and I be me.

Be you and i be me

The one essential and fundamental thing is, accepting who you are and where you come from. You cant deny your existence by wanting to attach yourself on something that is not and will never be. Embrace the beauty and acknowledge the inner peace that you have. Let that peace inside be the light that creates a spot light that only you and you alone can stand on. When you look yourself in the mirror what do you see? off course we have our own conclusions as to what we see. Be happy with your image, skin color and appearance. Yes we do work on our bodies to stay healthy and strong, with this our bodies will change to conform to whatever we are aspiring for. But, again But, we still should be happy of who we are, never dream of being someone else. Rest assure that other person is also wishing they were somebody else.This will relate to those that lack self esteem in themselves. Be proud of yourself, love the way you are, never wish to change anything about yourself at the expense of the society that is already delusion by commercialization. Pride in being different and unique. Be the inspiration or be inspired. Be you and i be me.

Break them

Who said you cant break the rules or change the game?. Just because you found it like that it certainly doesn't mean it will have to stay as is. Somebody out there will have to change it for the better and make a difference. You and i can make that change, don't doubt your powers and capabilities. Off course its not going to be overnight but with persistence and consistency change will avail. Like the saying goes" Rules were made to be broken". Okay! one will say Natty if its not broken why fix it?. For the most it does not need to be broken to be fixed. Simple idea of a fresh start and change builds moral and generates a conducive atmosphere. Never get too complacent to a point that you see no need to change one or two things in your life. Make the first leap and jump off that bridge and if you fall best you know how to swim. Be the change and the change will certainly be you. Be you and i be me

Always be

Being an overachiever is something we all need to strive for. Everyday of the week, we need to set our goals higher, at we may not achieve anything from that day. But a lesson will be learnt. Therefore when the next beautiful day comes, lessons learnt from the previous are executed . Hence the reason we need to at all times have all the fundamental tools needed for this life journey. Don't let the negative stray you off from your vision, because once again with this society, either rich or poor, black or white there is always going to be that one person who will destabilize your focus.Use their negative as a stepping stool to overcome their spite. You are the best, the baddest, smartest and above all you are you, be inspired not polarized, be creative and not a copycat more so be a realist. Be you and I be.

Thankful

Spirits are low and morals are below the half tank mark, some of us are going on reserve tank. Noooooo!! feel up that gas tank, the gas tank that is your mind,body and soul. Some of us use premium and others opt for regular or Unleaded, its up to you to choose which one works to your advantage. The price is different for each and the performance that it delivers is depended on how well you take care of your engine. But its all about what you drive and what makes your car drive smoothly. The car in this instance is your aura and whole being. As people we choose what fuel we use, we have the liberty to use fuel that may only allow our cars to move from point A to B, and this is indicative of just how we live our lives, living one day at a time. Others opt for high grade and this keeps their cars in good running form,this will be those that always aim high and set their standards higher. And they constantly have their gas tank on full. If you wake up in good spirits and balanced energy, nothing will stop you from going full on with life. Never will you find yourself stuck on the side of the express road just because you ran out of gas or your engine to died on you. Instead you will constantly check that gas meter and be reminded of when to fill up your body,mind and soul with energy.Remember the lower the gas is on your car, the higher the price when you refill. Some of us wait until its late to thank the powers that be for family, blessing and love. This is because we are not appreciative of the one and only important thing that is life. Lets wake up everyday in the morning and thank the powers that be for life, blessings, family and love. To avoid those engine breakdowns we need to use the best oil to lubricate the engines as it runs day in day out. Our body mind and soul save as the engine, using the blessings that have been given to you, take care of yourself and increase the life span of your engine no matter how many miles you clock on your car, if its taken good care of, the car will keep moving smoothly as new. As a human being you are no different from that car. Again for a long as you are thankful of life and family, you will always attract good blessing and positive love. In the words of Bob Marley " i woke up this morning, smile with the rising sun. Three little birds each by my door step, singing sweet songs of melodies pure and" we all know the rest of the lyrics... Remember be thankful of life and family but most of all be you and i be me.

Thoughts

Your destiny to succeed in life lies in your thoughts and perceptions, Don't wish to drive a nice car tomorrow when you have zero eggs to sell today. Focus on your goals based on what you have today. The tools you have and materials will determine what kind of goals you need to set for yourself. Off course this may change tomorrow, at least you will still have a base to work on and tools to use above all profit from the eggs in the basket. Yes whats in the basket saves as tomorrow's investment. So, like wise your thought process will help make you a better person, thus given the thought is mature and human. We are what we think and our actions give a conclusion of who we are as people. What we say cements what your personality is, your vocabulary and thought process is your investment. Your values and respect serve as your tools that will help you build or set up a steady base for who you need be, not WANT to be. Trust and believe in you, set goals based on what you can afford and more, stand by your word and say what you mean as well as mean what you say. Be you and i be me

Ignorance is a bliss

Don't take somebody else's kindness for a roller coaster ride. Don't ever think because somebody is quite and think that they are lame. As people we have this messed up thought process, should I say we are so easy to judge. Again this thing of using race and origin to degrade another person is a sign of being a coward. This is the second time within a space of two months that an idiot felt it was right for them to say what ever ish!! they want to say about me. I have heart one thing for sure I am not going to let one person out of all these more that 7billion people on earth make my day sour. Words hurt but one can also deflect the words and when the table turns around we all know it hurts the most. I have never in my life degraded any race by telling them to go back to their country and all that crazy stuff that comes with ignorance. I guess me writing this is my way of venting. I pride myself of my origin, skin color, ethnicity, image, style, literacy, my people above all who I am and who I will always be.I can not be let down one bygone, above all i know better not to be affected by ignorant people. I value people and i respect all kinds of race, but for someone to use use their origin and country of birth to make the next man feel like they are a piece of dirty is a shame. This is why i love the project i do with Dan Bloom on Madcap. "Inspiration with Natty"i find peace writing my thoughts, being in the studio with the one creative brother, recording and later listening to the end product. Why?because the world needs people to be united and respect one another. Anyway next time somebody degrades or tries to, just look and them and say 'I love me and i pride in me". If anything Natty is a citizen of the world. Be you and i be me.

Presence

Do you question your presence on this earth? should you question or do you just accept the fact that you are here and so let the good times roll. Well this can be arguable, or should i say justifiable.We all have a purpose on earth and in this time and space. Its up to us to figure out what our purpose besides living is, life is a given not a privilege. Help those that need your help, listen to those that seek your attentive ear, talk to those that lack guidance and guide those that need direction in life. You might not realize how much you mean to people around you, this is until you practice rather avail yourself in helping. Remember ego and pride sometimes fails us, we get so wrapped up in our bubble and forget that life can be a monster(Karma). Don't forget that this life as much as it was given ,it can also be taken away. Do what is right while you are still here and living on earth. Helping is a healthy drug, but again if not used right it can mess your mind set. Some people help to be seen, some help out of kindness. Sadly some feel forced to help, truth is that if you don't feel it inside you to help another being. Simple keep walking, but rest assure the next STOP sign will have one or two things that will save as a learning curve. Have you found out what your presence and life means to this world? if not don't worry soon you will find out. Keep reaching out and inside. Be you and i be me

Change

Be the change, create change, initiate,be the example of what change is. While you are sleeping somebody out there is making a change. Motivate yourself to stand out and be different. Never doubt your strengths and capabilities, while you are shying away from emerging out of the darkness with change, another living being is enjoying the fruits of accomplishing the change process. Make or create history, this world is full of souls that can make a great impact and transform this world. But if you stand aloof and expect change to come you, guess what? you will only enjoy the change made and created by others at all times. Be you and i be me.

The doors keep opening and the project is getting a more definite and stronger base. Once again thank you. Be you and I be me.

Hope

Hope to me is 'Hitting obstacles with positive energy' .We need to at all times keep our eyes on the horizon. At times if all resources are exhausted, we are forced to look for something fresh and new, thats how we perceive it for the most.Sometimes we don't need to look for that something else. Instead we need to use what we have and make something out of it. Unfortunately society has been riveted to a one mind set mentality. That is never to be creative or preserve. We are only looking for new things and we exhaust them and keep looking for more newer things. The question is, what happens to all the remains that we have used? We pile them and at the end of the day we have a heap of useless dirty, at least that's what we call it. How does this relate to our personal lives? You and I know that we take time to bother about the unnecessary let alone have a place to store the negative energies that we absorb and attract in our everyday lives. Again,because we have been riveted to this mentality of blame and hate, we never find that peaceful moment to look inside ourselves and see what kind of trash we have. This trash fortunately can be recycled and used to help us wade off negative people and energies. But it's only when you are in a conscious state that you find and understand that, as a human being you can only strive through clean energy that involves good people, teachings, nurturing, understanding and above all keeping your hopes at their best level. Remember Hope stands for (hit obstacles with positive energy). Never allow that waste material which is hate, anger, blame and regret to mount up to something that you can't take control of. Yes you may be able to get rid of that heap of waste, but it will require a lot of mental strength. Invest time to turn the negative into something good, and off course what is not needed delete it from your brain and heart. Do you remember Madagascar the movie? The part I like is when the animals are jamming and dancing to the "I like to move it" song. That's how we should be and live, keep it moving and dance at the same time. Life is too short to pile up waste and leave no space for good things. Keep hope alight, be you and I be me.
