Back to school motivation/goals.






I find out that when I set goals, I have more purpose and direction. As Young Black Males, we must strive to achieve goals and go past the bars that anyone sets. Therefore, this year as you are beginning or have began school; set goals. Education is one of the most important things that you can receive. Therefore, achieve and achieve again. Rather striving to get a B+ instead of a B. Or rather that means running for class president, trying out for the basketball team, or striving for Valedictorian. Always have goals in mind and do your best to make the dram a reality.






Further, don't fall into the trap of mediocrity or "lack of." What I mean by this is, I know school is hard and time consuming. However, it is what it is. Therefore, enjoy the classroom and the new things you can learn. Also, never settle for okay or make a excuse for being just average. Now, I know some school-work/test are just plain unfair. However, give it your all. Tutors, online lessons, and studying on the weekends are just a few ways to go from okay to excellent.


Last, find motivation and that silver lining.






Again, as I stated: School is Crazy Sometimes. As a Young Brother who is in school right now, this year is going to be a pain in the ....................(while you know the saying).






But, instead of me being depressed or giving up I'm going to use motivation and my personal goals to get me over the obstacles. I see the statistics, traps, and hate that society has for Us. Therefore, I use this for motivation. I use the fact that I can be a educated Black Male In America as motivation. I use the fact that I can be a active example in my community as motive.






You must find your motivation, My Brother. You must never let anyone/anything defeat you or deflate you. Be persistent and always be relevant. The fight ain't easy and a lot more hell is around the corner. However, the reward is great. And, the strong always win. Therefore, fight for every opportunity and every chance to succeed. Do this with honesty, strength, awareness, and full effort. And, believe Me: YOU WILL SUCCEED.

Well, it is Black History Month. This is the time to honor those in the past and plan for the future.

I have began to find some amazing things on their. For more daily facts, follow me @BrownBrotherWeb on Twitter. Anyway, that got me to thinking. Every Black History Month, we usually hear the same facts. And, to those who are new to the idea of being aware of our greatness may get confused or closed in. Meaning, they think are achievements are limited to the same ones that they always hear. Therefore, I wanted to compiled a list of little know Black History Facts. Particularly, a list of things that were invented by Black Men. I wanted to do this to show our greatness and make those aware who are not that we are greater than any of our circumstances. That greatness can be achieved by anyone, and the only thing that one...

Mr. Alton Sterling & Mr. Philando Castile

I sat at my computer, and I logged on to Twitter. To my shocked, yet unsurprised emotions, another Black Man was killed in America. Once again, another hashtag was created. A father of children, and a provider killed again. His name was, no IS Mr. Alton Sterling. Mr. Sterling like I stated above was a father, and a man just trying to do what he could to be what he knew was being a man. In addition, as I read his case and looked at him. Something got me, and hit me hard. His stature and expressions reminded me of yet another case of a Black Man being killed that broke my heart: Mr. Eric Garner. Both men, simply doing the American way is of Entrepreneurship to make ends make. To take care of their families. However, both are gone to soon. Mr. Sterling is another case of the plight of being a Black Man in America. However, the situation and the state of my emotions got worse. Before I could even grief or disgust the case of Mr. Sterling murder, I heard that possible another black man wa...

RIP Mr. Dick Gregory

Mr. Dick Gregory was much more than a comedian. To simply say he was a comedian would almost water-down his greatness. The greatness in which he used a comedic style to educate those of various generations and philosophies. Mr. Dick Gregory was a man of intelligence, sophistication, and humor. Mr. Gregory was a truth seeker and one whom understood that a man must always investigate the conspiracy as well as facts written in the open to truly get a possible understanding of this cryptic world. Baba Gregory understood the importance of health and taking care of one's body. He understand the importance of a healthy spiritual life, and having a true connection with the one true universal GOD. And, the importance of being aware of our ancestors whom came before we all did. Furthermore, Mr. Gregory understood the importance of mental awareness, and the idea to continue to read and learn throughout the journey of life. Mr. Gregory activism and platform is beyond great, and very ...
