What does a great king look like?…

This is the question that ultimately led me to studying Jesus.

in order to become a better man,
You have to model yourself after someone.

Unfortunately even the best role models in our Personal life,
No matter how much Wisdom they impart on us,
Or how their knowledge better our lives.
Everyone is imperfect.

Even more tragic though,
No one on the planet can give you advice on who you’re supposed to be.

If you let your parents tell you who you’re supposed to be in life, you’ll probably end up representing them.

If you let your friends tell you who you’re supposed to be, you’ll just end up wearing a mask.

You are the only one who can explore who you are supposed to be?

every man should study great kings of the past. From.;

Marcus Aurelius
Julius Caesar
Napoleon
Washington
Roosevelt
Solomon
Baldwin, the leopard King

But ultimately on your quest to discover the man you’re supposed to become, you will eventually ask the question how do I become a good king?

How do I serve my family and the people in my life?
How do I build a kingdom?
How do I take care of others?

If you ask those questions, you’ll eventually find yourself at Jesus.

Sometimes business trauma is the best lesson…

If you’re struggling to keep clients sticky,
If you’d like to have clients to stay with you for 23 years.

Shoot DM let’s talk.

Business isn’t hard,
You’re just trying to many things,
Which complicates business.

Complicated businesses are hard.
Let’s simplify that.

Prioritization/simplicity = Easy Business

Comment “ATHENA” to break this pattern

athena is the archetype of logos in a woman.
strategy, intellect, clarity of thought, and competence, untouched by emotions and feeling.

she was born full-armed from zeus's head.
she emerged from the masculine principle of reason itself, bypassing the feminine mother-body instinct entirely.

she masters strategy instead of instinct,
but she's detached from her body and emotions.

she's loyal, mentoring, and forms alliances but prefers "problems to be solved" rather than intimacy that requires "not knowing."

but in the court of aphrodite and eros SHE FAILS UTTERLY.

arrows in the deepest sense is capacity to be moved without controlling outcome.

And when a woman builds an entire life around being a problem, solver and controlling outcomes, it disconnects her totally from her Eros.

a woman living out this pattern will feel not depression but a flatness like looking at a photograph of a landscape instead of standing in one.

desire can feel faintly threatening and confusing because desire and love live in the realm of eros, chaos, and not truly knowing.

there's a unique loneliness to an athena. it's not loneliness of being unloved. people will love her. it's a loneliness of being seen accurately authentically but never being reached.

she usually doesn't have a language for this. it's something seldom spoken about. she might rationalize it by saying she just hasn't found her people yet or that she's just more independent than others but this is just a rationalization of isolation and disconnect from her body, eros, and femininity.

because growing up she was never allowed to explore her femininity, she found love through performance and being something for someone else rather than being loved for just existing.

she finds safety and consistency in her mastery of the masculine but deep underneath she feels that something isn't quite right.

Jungian psychology, the animus is the unconscious masculine aspect within a woman’s psyche, embodying qualities like logic, initiative, and spirit, often manifested in dreams as a guide or inner authority.

It functions as a mediator to the Self, aiding in individuation, but when unconscious, it manifests as rigid opinions, destructive criticism, or feelings of hopelessness, significantly shaping how women perceive male figures and their own effectiveness.

if you have a negative relationship with your animus, i guarantee you that you will attract men who will mirror that image. this is why you keep repeating the pattern.

if you want to break the pattern, dm me.

you became an entrepreneur to make more money,
but you're going to be a business owner for the rest of your life…

there's a difference between doing business,
and doing business for the REST of your life.

It comes down to mindset and ethics and how you conduct yourself in business.
my family's seen hundreds of businesses start up with morally corrupt owners,
men focused on money and profits and greed.
the majority of them collapse and fail not because they lack business systems or customers or equipment.

but because they themselves are lacking integrity.

Business is a small world.
And your reputation is everything.
Never damage it.

comment “MANCHILD” to break the pattern.

well, it’s easy to point the finger at the man and say he’s the issue.

There’s a deeper truth that lies beneath the surface.

Something in you activated with him.
Something pulled you towards a man like this.
Nature designed femininity to take care of others.

But that feminine care has a dark side,
When it’s left unconscious.

Violence is rising in our country.
Humanity is decaying.

It’s easy to be a violent person. It’s easy to be hateful and to point fingers. To draw lines in the sand and blame our fellow human beings for the suffering, we face.

The day we forget that we all suffer at our own hands. Is the day violence wins.

It’s hard to be a good person every day.
It’s next to impossible actually.

But,
Only the damn delight in death.

The moment we smile for the suffering of other others.
Is the moment we lose our soul.
We’re no longer humans, we’re animals.

You’re free to dislike, disagree and even hate someone. Have as strong of opinions as you like. In fact you should. We need more strong willed Americans.

But the moment you strip someone of their humanity, you do the same to your own soul.
