Empowering Black Community: Focus on Self-Improvement and Growth

Black people must focus on self-improvement and surround themselves with uplifting influences for true growth.

### Embracing Self-Improvement and Community Strength for Black Empowerment
* 🌱 "It's coming, so we got to **step in**, and we got to do it **on our own**." Focusing on **personal growth** and surrounding oneself with **supportive individuals** is essential for progress within the Black community.
* 🌳 Engaging with nature and reconnecting with childhood passions can lead to a **more fulfilling life**, as many have drifted away from what truly brings them **joy**.
* 💪 Individuals should prioritize self-improvement over following trends or seeking validation from peers, as this often leads to a cycle of **unfulfilling behaviors and debt**.
* 📖 "We got to change the bad habits man," and this begins with **educating oneself and surrounding oneself with positive influences** rather than replicating the behaviors of others.
* 🚶 Activities like hiking, biking, and engaging in outdoor exercises are vital for mental and physical health, fostering a **sense of community and well-being**.
* 🗣 It's important to **question traditional wisdom** and seek personal understanding through **introspection and spiritual guidance**, rather than simply adhering to **societal expectations**.
* 🤝 Lastly, uplifting fellow Black individuals and recognizing the value of one's own journey can lead to **collective empowerment and a stronger community**.

what's good y'all, it's your boy Matt, back at it again with another little video, you feel me. Just want to inspire the people today again, you know what I mean, um, per usual. But just like that last video, I'm specifically talking to black people, I'm talking to my people, because I feel like it's been far too many people that lead us astray, yo, and we need somebody that's going to, you know, motivate us to do [ __ ] that helps change us for the better, you feel me. So I'm out here today, you feel me, with the Jeep ski, you know, over here in Lake of popup Florida, and we just enjoying the views, you feel me. But at the same time, we keeping the main thing the main thing, and what that is today is, yo, y'all got to stop following your friends, yo. Y'all got to stop trying to be what your friends want you to be. You got to be yourself. That's the problem with a lot of these [ __ ] out here today, man.

they don't want to be themselves. They want to be everybody else. You feel me? The problem with that is when you're being everybody else, you're just being a damn mirror, yo. You're being something that's a replicate. What the [ __ ] am I saying? Now you're not being a mirror. You're being a clone, right? You're cloning yourself like they clone Tyrone in the movie. Yeah, that's how you're moving. But you got to cut all that [ __ ] out. You got to cut all that [ __ ] out, and you got to look yourself in the mirror. That's what I really meant to say. You got to look yourself in the mirror, all your imperfections. You feel me? Everything that you do that's wrong. You got to understand that that's you and that's your gift, and nobody can take that [ __ ] from you, and nobody can give that [ __ ] to you. That's just it. And you see, once you start doing that, you're going to

realize that a lot of the people you thought were friends are going to fall off. You're going to realize that a lot of the people in your family that you might have thought really loved you, they really hate you. And your mama and your daddy, you're going to realize that it's going to be some harsh truths that's going to come across your life every now and then once you start going on this journey. But I think it's important for black people to separate themselves from the community if the community isn't benefiting themselves. And I'm going to say it, yeah, the black community, you need to get yourself outside of the people in your immediate circle, and they're not helping you. Just 'cause you're around black people don't mean they for the cause, you feel me? Just 'cause they got dreadlocks don't mean they for the cause, you feel me? You got to listen to people that's really talking that truth into your life, you know what I mean? You know who they are in your life, and if they, if you got them people

in your life, then cool, keep them there. If you don't got them people in your life, you got to reevaluate everybody else that's leading you astray, especially if you're a parent, especially if you're somebody that's out here reproducing. If you got kids, you know what I'm saying, you got to be taking the The Road Less Traveled, man, to get your child outside of this system, you feel me? 'Cause you sit out here and you make it seem like you can follow your auntie and your uncles and [ __ ] and you going to lead your child right down the same path of Destruction that you led your life down and that they LED they life down, and that's not what we trying to do out here. That's why I'm 30 years old with no kids right now 'cause I understand that, look, until I am physically and mentally and spiritually ready to bring another human into this world, I'm not going to do it. I'm going to focus on myself, you feel me? I'm going to

to focus on myself, and that's what a lot of people need to do, man. They need to focus on themselves. Stop being out here searching for relationships and [ __ ]. I see y'all talking about this [ __ ] on Twitter, man. This [ __ ] lame. Y'all talking about it [ __ ] can take you to Cheesecake Factory. That [ __ ] is irrelevant. Y'all talking about [ __ ] that is irrelevant out here. Y'all need to be better than yourselves. What did you do that you enjoy when you were a child? That's what I ask people all the time. What do you do that you enjoy when you were a child right now as an adult? Most of y'all don't do none of that [ __ ]. You don't do none of it, and that's your problem. You grow up, and you think you outgrown the circumstance, man. You think you outgrown the fact that you need to be outside in the sun. You need

To be around nature, you need to be reading books. You need to be educating yourself just like a little child. You need to stop acting as if you know everything. You don't know everything. That's why you don't got nothing. You sitting around in a pool full of debt from college, everything else up your ass 'cause you wanted to be like everybody else, and you didn't focus on yourself. Focus on yourself, man. Lift yourself up, man, through God, man. Pray and ask God to lift you up, and it's going to happen. It's going to happen, you feel me? Stay connected to God, man. Black people, you know what I mean? And that's how black people going to get free. Not being like everybody else, not trying to follow the trends, not trying to be the next SoundCloud rapper, the next YouTube rapper, you feel me? We going to change our community by being good sound people, you know what I'm saying? By getting outside, riding bikes, by getting outside, going on walks, by getting outside and early in the morning doing push-ups, getting outside and going kayaking.

getting outside and going hiking, that's what's going to free us, man. Because once you do that, you'll realize that your time is way more precious than what you be giving this, the internet, bro, than what you be giving these good-for-nothing friends that's not doing nothing for you in terms of you getting better in this world, man. So, that's what I wanted to talk about today 'cause this [__] is this [__] is aggravating me, man. I got little nephews, I got little cousins, I got people out here, and they don't really see what's going on. It seemed like they just going down the same trend of everything else that every other [__] [__] did before them, you feel me? That every celebrity did before us. We got to stop following these people that's not really leading us towards something that's better for ourselves. And when you do that, when you stop following them people, you going to realize that your life

going to get easier and you're going to realize that you're going to find a lot more success. You're going to find a lot more wealth being you [__] what everybody else is doing, bro. Surround yourself with people that are smarter than you. Next black person you see, lift them up. It don't matter who it is. It don't matter who it is. See, you know what I'm saying? Catch up with them. If it's your nephew, you know what I'm saying? If it's your cousin, if it's your mama, go talk to your mama. See, a lot of problem with these us as black people, as we get older, we forget that, you know, we are adults too, and we begin to belittle ourselves, and we can't talk up to our elders no more and tell them what we want to do with our life, what's that we think is best for our lives, you know what I'm saying? Because we were raised, you know, of course, to respect and honor.

our elders, but you see, at some point, you got to even question what your elders are telling you and make sure that them [__] is in check with what God is saying. You know what I'm saying? Sometimes, you got to stop listening to the elders and go read the Bible for yourself, and then you might get some real understanding on what the Bible is trying to tell you in terms of what you need to do for your life and your health and your family. You know what I'm saying? In your community and the people that you love, you know what I'm saying? The people that you come across and the things that matter to you. But that [__] don't come easy, man. That [__] don't come from you listening to everybody that is just older than you just 'cause they older than you. That [__] that don't even make sense. Really think about it. Really think about it. Just 'cause they older than you, that don't mean nothing. There's older

people that don't got half the [ __ ] that I got and that don't got half the Consciousness that I got that don't have that that don't have half the spirit that I got that don't got half the bank account that I got that don't got half the houses that I got don't there's people older people than me why would I listen to them just cuz they older you feel me look the Bible says a child shall lead them so children hey we listening and this is what the children is saying man we got to we got to keep the fire going and we got to keep the community Strong by any means necessary just like Malcolm X said so this is this is my means right now you feel me all I got is what I got you feel me I got a little something something that God blessed me with and I'm going take advantage of it you know what I mean I'm going to enjoy it you know what I mean and I'm going spread the gospel the

gospel man and the freedom of black people. That's all I'mma to do and look how look how beautiful life get when you start doing doing what you supposed to do bro. I can't cap. I can't make this stuff up man. It's 9:00 in the morning, you know what I mean. So look man, y'all stay prayed up man. I love y'all. God loves y'all. Keep doing what you've been doing in terms of tapping into videos like this man. If y'all like this video. If y'all hear the message I'm trying to put out to black people, please make this [ __ ] go viral man. Please share this to some y'all know. We got to change the bad habits man. We got to make this thing better for ourselves by changing the habits that the white power structure has ingrained into our Consciousness. And what that really steps into is you getting outside, getting into the sunlight, you feel me, being around nature, reading books, listening to music that doesn't have um lyrics that are you

know contrary to your vision and contrary to what God has for your life. You feel me? I look, I like listening to that type of music too. I understand, you feel me? Everybody wants to listen to Future and Skillibaby every now and then, you know what I mean? But look, man, we got to really start taking a step towards what's better for our people, and I'm trying to do that with this channel. So if y'all like this, if y'all banging with this, please subscribe, please comment, please like, please let me know what's up in the comment section, you know, drop a fist, yo, black power, you know what I'm saying? Drop whatever you got, drop emoji-wise. Look, man, we here just to spread love, yo. Be yourself and remember that it's a war outside. This is coming from a black combat veteran to all my black people. It's a war outside, and we got to emancipate ourselves. We have to do it actively. Nobody going to do it for us. Reparations obviously don't look like

It's coming, so we got to step in, and we got to do it on our own. And when we start doing that, we're going to see the fruits of our labor, separating ourselves from people that's destroying us. Do that. Get into it. Get around nature. You will find the black people that you need to be around. You will get the support you need. Universe, God will support you when you're doing what you're supposed to do, bro. So be out there doing what you're supposed to do, um, and God's going to look out for you, like I said. All right, I love y'all. Peace. Thank you for listening. Thank you for watching. I hope y'all enjoyed this. Um, let me know what y'all think, and we going to have some more videos coming out here. All right, peace.

WASTED my life, until I chose to move SOLO 😇
