As a Man Thinketh...

I have a dream...

This year I celebrate my 50th Birthday and my gift is to remind us how important it is to give back. What is the meaning of life if we don't leave a legacy from which others benefit?

Our forefathers and mothers planted trees from which we gather fruit, and dug wells from which we quench our thirst. Cilvil Rights Activist marched for us, died for us and pleaded for our equality.

So what are we leaving behind for our communities today? What are we fostering in the minds of our Black children? How will we strengthen our famillies and our communities?

Fifty years ago, Dr. King's "I Have a Dream..." Speech debuted in Detroit and transformed a nation. Today, I join in that movement of teaching us all to evolve in our beliefs, values and purpose for elevation of our consciousness into the greatness that lies in the Human Spirit.

Our ancesters from Africa knew the power of connection to the Divine, and honoring the human-ness in each other. I invite you to remember the greatness of our people, and let's have conversations that inspires us all to take action to "Heal what's hurting our Black Community."

As we reflect on the economic uncertainties many major cities like Detroit faces, our featured guest Jon Vincent Pettiford El will share with us today the importance of creating Your Own Economy, and a system whereby to inform your mind on wealth creation so you think and operate like the CEO of your Company!

We are powerful, and we rise!
Stay tuned for Part II of the Mogul Mindset Mastery 4-Part Series on December 12, 2013 with our feature guest, Mr. CEO himself, Jon Vincent Pettiford El!!
