After You Launch, Move Forward and Don’t Look Back
Now I launched my empire, my focus is on the journey forward. The first post-launch step is to establish a relationship with my customers and stakeholders. This is where the real excitement and real work begin.
If I look back, I will think about the negative people and stuff. I have to think about the unsupportive fake friends and jealous family withholding praise hoping to discourage – didn’t work. I have to think about the Black sistas gaslighting telling me they know someone doing what I’m doing – nah, she doesn’t know anybody doing what I’m doing, I know full well who is who in my industry more than any Black person running their damn mouth, trust me.
Then I have to reflect on these worthless brothas following Black charlatans and lying about being rich and lying about trying to get rich - they not trying. Brothas not rich and you can see that driving down the street and seeing these bums just hanging out, not paying child support. Our brothas are the biggest disappointment because I travel the world and see what other ethnicity of men are doing to uplift their economy, nation, and their people while in their 30s and 40s. But among us, we got these broke and worthless American brothas in their 40s and 50s typing LOL to another Black man in a charlatan chat feed.
I don’t focus on the negative stuff anymore, I really don’t. I don’t think about these negative characters and how they came at me with the nonsense they were on, especially family and friends. I simply cut them off my life and it felt really good and relieved like I had a big burden lifted off my soul. I am focused on the right here, right now, and what’s ahead of me.
When I decided to launch and celebrate, I called and thanked a lot of people. I thank the real positive brothas and sistas who have my back and was in my corner here at Dream and Hustle. I’m already prepared for the early adopter program and don’t think they realize how dope they going to be creating Web 3.0 solutions while everybody else is on some yesterday stuff.
But I looked at the receipts and even though I architect my solution based on the Black community's needs, it was the support from Asia like Singapore, Taiwan, China, Latin America, young Americans, Middle East. I had awesome women from Afro-European to Latinas to humble Muslim sistas in the Middle East and Southeast Asia as well as last but not least – all the Asian women that supported this Black man and stayed with me to finish this architecture while my own Black folks were over there talking up a bunch of negative nonsense trying to doubt on another Black man, a brotha they don’t even know.
The journey is really what you are after in life. It is the manifestation of something new that drives the quality of your life, not the status quo. Always learn to reinvent yourself and reinvest in yourself to adapt and thrive in a world of constant change and new breakthroughs. Realize that it is the journey, not a status that gives you the purpose you are seeking out here.
If you have not realized by now, we got a lot of nonsense artificial narratives in the Black community always selling up drama, rumors, and aspirations instead of making real moves and doing real things to progress as a people. You should monitor me and the moves I will make to watch stuff like Black Enterprise, Blavity, Roland Martin, these charlatans like Boyce Watkins and Polight, Breakfast Club, and Max Maxwell, and these other clowns talking up Black relationship advice – watch them all how they will fight real positive and progressive brothas and sistas just to maintain a perpetual state of Black victimhood and Black grievances (Tom Joyner old punk behind as well) – watch and observe.
The new journey, the new 21st century level of Blackness is we are going to be in Tokyo, Seoul, Shanghai, Lisbon, Manchester and Birmingham, Dublin, Dubai, Paris, Brussels, Accra, Johannesburg, Cabos San Lucas, Mexico City, and San Salvador doing international business, digital trade and creating new domains of Blackness that these current characters have zero grasps or understanding of the new landscape and ecosystem.
The journey ahead of us is we are going to keep learning what works and doesn’t work. We are going to start engaging and interacting with people around the world and share ideas and stories. We are going to make mistakes and plan to fail with risk reduction and fast recovery to get back up and keep pushing until we got it right. We going to network only among the qualified – the fakers and posers and loudmouth talkers can sit at home and type on a keyboard on a social media platform. The funny part is even if they make money as a charlatan, they still cannot do big moves because they never put in the actual work to mature to someone who can scale up to big moves. That’s when you realize the money doesn’t mean a damn thing – look at Blavity's unscalable and laughable business model.
Let’s get ready to move forward and don’t look back. Notice in recent articles, you heard me talk about Tokyo as a place I will not consider as an HQ hub after that travel ban nonsense they pulled, now I’m researching Dubai – that’s learning and readjusting. Notice I don’t have Black sistas or anybody in my life talking to me about who they know doing what I’m doing – I keep my opposition across enemy lines. When you see me and see I’m good and I’m happy, I have a nice Latina and nice Japanese woman who got my back and wants to see me win and put in real work support for me. I got itineraries and destinations to seek out and set up shop. I got problems to solve with the skills and talent I acquired and mastered. I got a journey ahead of me.
As for the Black community and all the bullcrap they tried to put a real brotha through, they will watch a Black man do this without their permission. I already got a younger generation following and celebrating me so the old folks can go put on an adult diaper and go sit down somewhere. Remember that your life is going to that day when you decide to launch the mission to fulfill your dreams and your purpose and embark on the journey with no looking back.
