Lesson 57 Making Up

Lesson 57 is called Making Up, not relationship wise but society wise. Meaning, there are certain social responsibilities we all have. General respects and norms that we all expect to happen in day to day life. Like personal habits, personal space, and personal safety. That is what we owe to one another, but some of us go a step further we want to look “desirable”. That is a responsibility that is heavy, because we really don’t know what anyone else likes so we fix ourselves up so we would like it. Then you get a little attention and you like it then attention is what you seek and not just being comfortable. Well this lesson is about that getting back to being comfortable. I know dudes who complain about the women they are attracting, it’s their bait. If you dress like a trick you will attract whores. Same with women if you dress like a bitch that only wants bitchy things you will attract dogs by the mob. There was a philosopher named Lord 3*2 putts Houston RIP who said ” Hoes don’t get choose, I smash off on vogues, wear starched down clothes” Meaning, in my culture if you chase it you’re a hoe, male or female. This episode is about the patience that comes with living and knowing that what is for you is for you. This may not be an easy concept, until you confront it in your real life. The question is why am I putting on make up or “costume” to impress people I don’t want anything to deal with? Or can I attract my tribe with just my vibe? It aint cheap or profitable to “look” like you got money in hopes of getting money is a young mans game. Anyway enjoy lesson 57 and see if you can release some of the responsibilities you hold over yourself.

Lesson 56 Recognizing Success

Lesson 56 is about recognizing success. The problem is we are often competing with others, instead of following our own game plan. This becomes problematic when the success you’re chasing after only makes other people happy. Money should be a tool to help you get to a destination or a goal. If your goal is to buy your mother a house you will need money, but the goal is to get her a house. We lose sight sometimes seeing the chase as the payoff and not the process. I had to reflect and prioritize what was important to me. Doing my best at all times, being honest as I can at all times, and looking bout for myself at all times. Because if I hurt myself or put myself in a weird situation I wouldn’t be able to attain any goals. Life is too short to keep up with people who are headed in another direction. I have never met a happy money chaser, there will always be more money to chase. But happiness, ah once you taste that you wanna wallow in that for a couple years. It may be hard work but when you love and can earn a living at it that’s heaven, no? Let me know in the comments what happiness means to you? and how you’re gonna achieve it. Or just say it out loud so you can really think about it. My aim is to help so I hope fully that this is helpful to people…Please enjoy Lesson 56 of How Do You View You?

Todays lesson talks about elder abuse not the physical but the mental aspects of it and how we individually can help a community. In a recent visit to a senior home, I was bothered by the lack of services and activities for the “knowledge holders” of our already been reprimanded for calling senior “old people” so I am learning happily. Please enjoy lesson 53.

Lesson 50 Giving In vs. Giving Up

Today’s lesson talks about giving in versus giving up, and Griffinstein updates. I see people giving up everyday. Giving in is different because that is when an outside force batters you until you acquiesce. Giving up is an internal force that batters you, which to me equals hopelessness, helplessness, and ultimately depression.

There are so many resources and people willing to help, but no one wants to be “judged” which we are everyday. “Judged” is what some people say when they don’t want their mistakes or shortcomings as a human to be remedied by another better yet recognized by another, so we all try to take care of our problems in house. Which leads to giving up because we obviously can’t do it on our own or we would have done. My aim is to help so I hope fully that this is helpful to you really. Tongue twister on purpose…Please enjoy Lesson 50 of How Do You View You.

Lesson – 49 Worth Less

Today’s lesson talks about feeling worth less, questioning doubts, and Griffinstein updates. Sometimes we need people to see us. And only in this “seen” do we feel valued. That is a recipe for disappointment, because once the ingredient of other peoples opinion leaves, you are let feeling worth less. The aim could be to get where your worth is based on what you think solely or jointly. If you are in entertainment, politics, and other popular based jobs public opinion is your worth so expiation there lol. For the rest of us or worth you be based on the person that knows our worth best. Which should be you if it is not you need to go watch Lesson 40 of this series =). My aim is to help so I hope fully that this is helpful to you really.

Lesson 48 – The Introduction

Today’s lesson talks about introduction and how we present ourselves to others. Sometimes we see ourselves as what we used to be or what new would like to be, instead of what we are. The question is how do I introduce myself and why? No incorrect answers, but know what you are doing when you are doing it. I know people with kids over 40 that still says I’m a proud mom. Nothing wrong, but what are you telling people? Sometimes we speak highly of ourselves to gain leverage or speak lowly of ourselves for the same reason. There are those of us who will say the best things about ourselves and the very worst in the same introductions. Food for thought check out the podcast let me know what you think. This maybe the last episode of the “Dark” series and get geared up for the last 11 shows.Please enjoy episode 48 of How Do You View You #peacefulviolence #Griffinstein #mentalhealthawareness #onpurpose #meaningfulquotes #Kapricornicus #selftherapy #philosophy #therapy #black #soulmusic #generationalwealth #generationalhealing #generationalcurses #letmein #GreatGrandkids #howdoyouviewyou #Darknetwork #darknetwork247 #podcasting #unscripted #darknetwork #introduction

Episode 47 – Freedom is a Choice

Today episode talks about freedom and what it means to be “free”. Too often we take for granted the meaning of freedom, to most of us it means being able to go where you want if you want. As I have gotten older, I see I cannot go anywhere I want, not without consequences. People have been kept out of opportunities and upward mobility, based on their freedom level.

I can walk into an exclusive Golf club (I don’t golf) but I will be escorted out and could possibly loose my life. This episode explores a different kind of freedom risking it for others that really do not respect the sacrifice you would be making. I know people that will go to jail for a shoplifting and would not think nothing of it, where if I am with them we ALL go. A pound ass snicker is not worth my being handcuffed and sat in a car and being in the system. On the other hand if I see a person getting hurt, I have to decide never an easy decision, when its strangers. Its a fine line and I go into the issue deeper.

Episode 46 – You & Your Whole Generation

Todays episode is about the challenges and misconceptions of breaking generational curses. And by any means money is not the answer, it can’t be. If a person gets off drugs or whatever the curse is for that generation. If you can remember the curse you are still part of it.

This is not downing any one’s’ accomplishments at all, conversely it’s just to call some people’s attention to the future you. In a word, breaking generational curses is huge responsibility. It will not be easy and it requires you to talk to people you may not like, but the future is the goal. Let’s be clear, this is really only for people that want to see the future with them in it. Meaning, if you pass knowledge in this world you are always here. In my family, they still talk about my great grandfather. Even after all of these years. A story of his exploits would make a very good western. Besides, if there is no family to tell about him we lose a hero, someone that we came from who was strong.

Lastly, engage with family now just to talk about. Everyone will not be on board. Do not ridicule those who chooses not to be part of this family thing, preferably celebrate those that show up. In spite of businesses failing or prospering, the children are watching. Take your time and explain to them the losses and wins, the decision making. You do not have to make money to WIN. Just know what you’re playing for and make that the priority. Find happiness in seeing your kids grow strong and never having to go through what you went through. Breaking generational curses.

Episode 41 – Griffinstein discusses pain.

In todays episode of of How Do You View You, Griffinstein talks about pain management. And what people expect from you regardless. After surgery Griffinstein was in pain took no pain medicine and explains why. How his focus was off, how pain took over his whole life for three days. 11 stitches in the lip, the swelling and the unfortunate “rebleed” (story included) just brought out some old trauma. About growing up in Richmond and some of the things he has seen. Funny how smells and emotions can bring you to a moment in a snap of a finger. Working through all that with the pain, the lack of food the stitches were on his lip so light eating was called for. The moral of the story is: Some things we stand on until we are in a little bit of pain or uncomfortable and then crumble.

Also speaks on leaving people in this race we call life. We will plan for the rainy days and everybody that didn’t plan just eats at your house. But it’s not ok, some of us need to be around savers and do’ers so that efforts aren’t wasted. And there is guilt with that, but guilt from doing what’s best for you versus guilt for doing something for someone else is worse. If you put effort into something and you want to be great at it, you cannot work with people who just don’t care the whole project will come off as such. Some people believe that just the doing is enough, but most people know when love time and consideration was put into anything created by others. Most people talk the talk but the walk is always missing. Please enjoy this episode 41 of How Do You View You? Thank you
