Due to lengthy international travels this weekend, I will be unable to convene Night School this Saturday.

In the meantime, I will continue to communicate my thoughts in writing, primarily on this channel.

God bless you and please have a wealthy weekend ahead.

Some of these channels teach more than money matters, but yeah, their overall content and approach are solid.

“Let children be children” is hypnotic doctrine from “the other side”.

Instead, hand them the lead.

Heads, never tails.

Pornography, pop culture and endless scrolling through a hyper-sexualized social media feed.

None of it is accidental.

It’s the architecture of a system designed to keep you drifting. It's profitable to everyone in the loop, except yourself.

If you’ve been feeling drained, unfocused, or addicted to stimulation, this session will show you why… and perhaps suggest how to break free.

None of this is your fault.

Your desires have been engineered.

Your impulses monetized.

Your time converted into data and sold on the open market.

All this time, you've been up against corporations with PhDs on their payroll.

They know us better than we perhaps know ourselves.

It’s time to stop being the product... and start being the producer of your own thoughts, actions and destiny.

☝🏼 What I’m sharing here isn’t about faith, though you can cull that if it works for you.

I’m focused more on just how much we take for granted in our modern world — what people of the past had to go through in order to accomplish the most basic human tasks - transportation, communication and trade.

How much legacy are you leaving on the table given the tools available to us today?

A worthy paradigm to meditate on would be Yuval Noah Harari’s book title, Homo Deus.

It means God-like Humans.

It’s not the future. It’s already here.

Some humans already live in that reality, and if you aren’t, they’re beating you.

There’s a reason it’s called the “Human race”.

I want you winning.

Tonight’s scheduled meeting can no longer hold tonight due to operational reasons.

It will stream live tomorrow (Sunday), by 9pm.

As we continue with the 3rd installment of the “Economy of Mind” series, we will be examining a rather curious thought - the difference in men.

We may all look the same on a species level, but we are differentiated by our emotional/psychological/spiritual programming which in turn determines our eventual respective positions on the chessboard of life.

Regardless of how we were programmed by our human guardians, can one realistically renegotiate their place on the chessboard?

Is it achievable? Or just a fantasy we’re enticed to chase?

Of course it’s achievable but the ‘how’ is the bone of contention.

The so-called renewing of your mind begins with arming yourself with the most accurate version of reality.

We all see in part, but some do not even see at all.

Join us tomorrow (Sunday) by 9pm.

If you already registered for the series, all links remain the same.

Thy Teacher,

King Solomon wrote, “A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children”

I think his definition of ‘good’ here was informed by his personal experience as a son (and successor) of King David.

Preparing succession was (and still is) a priority to Kings. They’d built a lot and wanted to ensure its preservation, even in their demise.

They also attached a sense of pride to their offspring and wanted them well set up and protected.

They were also under no illusion that life was fair.

This was a hyper competitive world and their kids had to have as much of an advantage as possible over everyone else.

Consequently, they educated their offspring differently than the child of the commoner cared to.

So when King Solomon refers to leaving an inheritance, it was more than material.

Just before Kind David died, he called Solomon to his side and told him, as we say, where the bodies were buried.

He told him whom to trust and whom to punish; who was a generational friend and who was an enemy; which other kingdoms they had agreements with and which advisers to lean on.

Kind David even contributed a couple of chapters to Solomon’s book of Proverbs.

Only after arming him thus did he send him into this cruel world to try to win.

And so it baffles me almost to the point of irritation when parents choose to breed with little thought to what weapons of war their kids are engaging reality with.

No superior knowledge of the world they can use, no connections, no advantages, no capital, nothing.

Just “I brought you into this world”

Who asked you to? It’s a dark, dangerous and exploitative planet.

Or at most “You will succeed. I’m praying for you”

That’s not how it’s done, o peasant.

Anyway the deed has been done.

You’re here now… figuring out late in your life… that the world isn’t what you were told it was, especially those of you born into a Third World concentration camp.

You must wake up and sit up or be food for those who see.

The inheritance you weren’t given, you must learn to seize.

You must learn how to be free… *_IN THE WAYS THAT MATTER._*

☝🏼Read this line again.

Night School holds tonight at 9pm.

Be disciplined. Show up early, not begging for a replay or a recap.

Teachers like me only incarnate once in a generation so it’s funny to me when you’re lazy to access what is free of cost.

It’s the Economy of Mind series.

Side gist from yesterday’s *Night Meeting*…

☝🏼yeah, that was intended to sound spooky 👻 to my very African audience 😂

Anyway… it was this… that the Secrets to Life (and indeed our Universe) are hidden in Secondary School science subjects.

One of such secrets is locked up in a Physics term - ESCAPE VELOCITY.

You may’ve heard me teach on this before.

Here’s what it means scientifically…

When launching a rocket into space, a lot of energy (fuel) is required due to:

- the weight of the rocket (how heavy it is)
- ⁠the gravitational pull that the earth exerts on the rocket, forcing it to stay firmly on the ground

In order to supersede these forces of natural law, scientists have to calculate the exact amount of energy (fuel) required to lift this heavy rocket off the ground and into space.

This would naturally require unimaginable amounts of energy (fuel), but…

Scientists also know that another aspect of natural law is on their side - Escape Velocity.

It’s the speed that the rocket needs to reach in order to ESCAPE the earth’s gravitational pull, such that it doesn’t require more energy (fuel) to keep accelerating.

And so a lot of effort, resources and calculations are vested in ensuring this ESCAPE VELOCITY is achieved, knowing that nature will handle the rest once we do our part.

_Your Escape Velocity_

I think a lot of people underestimate the inhuman amounts of courage, tenacity and selective deafness required to get some dreams off the ground.

You’re dealing with:
- the unbelief of your friends
- ⁠the uncertainty of being original
- ⁠very likely originating from a Third world country with a comparatively less stable economy

You cannot afford the ‘love and light’ vibe of 1st world influencers.

You’re not in your ‘gratitude’ era.

You’re like the biblical Nehemiah, who when given permission by King Artaxerxes I of Persia to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem, faced attacks from Sanballat, Tobias, the Ammonites and the Samaritans.

Nehemiah’s response to the builders wasn’t “God will fight for us” or “keep high vibrations”

The response was lethal, more like… “Okay, niggas finna die now”

Nehemiah 4:17 - “Those who carried materials did their work with one hand and held a weapon in the other… and each had his sword strapped at his side while he built.”

If there was ever an instruction to ‘stay strapped’, it’s to you Third World native.

Your self esteem will come under attack.

Monitoring spirits will spy on your work just to see if you’ve given up yet.

And don’t forget the enemy within, as your own worst vices and unsolved traumas will try to trip you up.

It will be a dog fight, but only at the beginning… remember you only have to achieve escape velocity and then you’re untouchable.

No superstar you respect has been able to avoid this path.

Cast laziness and procrastination aside.

There’s much work to be done.

Build with one hand, make war with the other.

On social media, you will hear some public figures say that it makes no sense to go to Universities or Business Schools to learn about Entrepreneurship from lecturers who never built a business.

They are categorically wrong, but I understand how their logic computes.

They only see the first layer of our shared reality, hence the hasty assertion.

It is indeed true that you can learn about business from those who have been successful at business.

However, the current economic framework in which those same businesses play was first designed on paper by Bankers, Economists, Statisticians, Bureaucrats and other stakeholders, at the behest of their various Governments.

It is the job of high level academia to study and progressively document the status and evolution of the respective country’s business environment.

Hence they have access to reports, case studies and historical data.

They also know how to interpret this data for the actual students of entrepreneurship to take action.

The top 1% send their kids to acquire this carefully curated treasure trove of generational wisdom.

They therefore engage the market with more data than the average hustler is working with.

These are not people trying to simply make a living.

Their parents sent them into the world to take over entire supply chains, distribution lines and production processes.

While the average man wants to make 6 figures to post “God did it” on instagram so he can impress Canaanite baddies, the Harvard graduate is entering the system to control the future flow of Capital.

They are not the same.

Don’t believe people who explain reality by their success in dropshipping.

By all means, with as much as is available to you, acquire the tools and education of Capitalism *at the level that the Architects of our civilization created the system*.

This is why I sent you free MBA materials.

Don’t let them just sit in your inbox just because they’re free.

I’m even curating another list of resources to send across to you.

Please allocate time in your schedule to consume them.

Rooting for you.

🔥 *NIGHT SCHOOL RECAP + WHAT'S NEXT*

Last Saturday, we broke down the ECONOMY OF MIND Part 3:

You were born RICH, with 3 spiritual currencies: Energy, Attention & Time, which are your alchemical responsibility to convert to MATTER (Money).

Matter = Money

See? It's encoded in language.

Why do you think abundance in money is synonymous with MATERIAL success?

Do you see it?

MONEY - MATTER - MATERIAL - MATERIALISM

English is interesting sha.

Moving on now…

It's your alchemical responsibility to convert these currencies - your Energy, Attention, and Time - into Money (or Matter).

The world's agenda? Keep you ignorant of their value so you give them away for FREE or cheap.

Is it not common practice for the world's smartest investors to buy up underpriced assets?

Your mind is a coveted one.

And so while everyone lusts after money, their buckets of spiritual currency (by now you know what they are)… are being taken by spiritual highway robbers.

And many of those who are prudent with their spiritual currencies are being contained by life because they do not know how to transmute them into money at the highest possible value.

If we were all gifted equal amounts of time (for example), why is one person's hour valued at $10, and another's valued at $1,000?

This brings us to other concepts such as:

- Levels of implementation
- Leverage
- Location
- Etc.

And you realize why, as George Orwell wrote, "Some animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."

Join me tonight for *ECONOMY OF MIND 4*.

AI can (and should) put money in your bank account.

But most AI tutorials online? Just cute to know.

You don't walk away with a high-leverage SKILL you can IMMEDIATELY monetize.

I mean… who will pay you to change jacket colors or edit pictures to look like you're in New York?

Cute. But not monetizable.

*So on November 18-19, we’re doing something different.*

A FREE workshop focused ONLY on 3 AI skills people are actively paying for:

*AI Ad Creatives* – Create scroll-stopping ads 10X better than Canva. No design skills needed.

*AI Copywriting* – Sell any product with words that trigger buying intent. Even if you can't write copy.

*Product Creation* – Build a ready-to-sell digital product using my system.

No fluff. No party tricks. Just skills that pay.

You’re the director. AI is your unpaid staff.
