Every great and winning team all have commonalities that cements victory. Phenomenal leadership! Communication! Advanced trainers!
Winning is not a chance, it is cultivated.
It's a mathematical equation that can be reproduced over and over.
SAME FOR LOSING.
Phil Jackson, record holding 11 time NBA Championship Coach, KNOWS THIS.
Music Mogol, Sean Combs and Computer Genius, Bill Gates KNOWs THIS.
From Basketball to Entertainment to Computers there is a WINNING formula.
How can you make a cake with out the right tools or ingredients.
THE ANSWER: You don't, or you make something different than originally desired. For even the flexible community, how many of us really want to do that.
A crucial peice to the puzzle that i'm here to talk about today is the "TOWEL GUY."
The guy that....hold on pictures are bette than words SOMETIMES .........
Yes this guy/girl.
The one who has TRULY ACCEPTED HIS ROLE and does all within his " Towel Guy" Duties.
Becareful of boxes, he can come in many forms.
" Super-Star Pre-Game Help Guy"
and the infamous " CHEST BUMPER"
All winning teams have this. Even in communities where humor doesn't seem to be emphasized, have this. This guy is the blender, he takes the ingredients that are
already there and puts his finishing touches on the winning cake batter so it can rise to perfection in the oven of life and competition. No matter how underrated,
ALL WINNERS KNOW THIS GUY, HAVE SEEN THIS GUY AND HAVE EVEN PLAYED WITH THIS GUY.
question: Are you that guy. If not, why not. Is it because you have too much knowledge, or just too cool; too cool to be called cheezy sometimes or seems over- burdonsome with enthusiam, that you can't play this role. Do you have enough team members to DARE not be this guy on the team. CEO, Exectutive, Founder, Employee; DO YOU? And even if you did, the WINNING SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS have figured this out; How to successfully wear different hats. From the CEO to " Towel Guy"
If you can transform you personality, guidance and competence of a CEO or Executive into that of a " Towel Guy," you will be a life changer and business changer.
This is Winning Transcendence at it BEST

It huts ME more than it hurts YOU: for REAL
Empathy- the action of understanding, being aware of, and being sensitive to, and vicariuosly experiencing the feelings, thougthts and experiences of another of the past or present without having the feelings, thoughts and experience fully communicated in an objectively explicit manner.
I know 'where the party at', I know 'where the bitches at', I know 'where the weed at'. But where is the pain? Where is the muthafuckin pain?! This goes out to all you rapping ass niggas. I do NOT feel you. And I do NOT need your inspiration, motivation, or celebration. What I need is to know that sometimes, just sometimes you muthafuckas feel like me. Sometimes you muthafuckas get down like me; for real. Let me know that you are real niggas; with real stress; real headaches; real heartaches. Real muthafuckin anxiety. When can I hear that? I love you niggas, man; you aint gotta flex on me...This ME, the same muthafucka that was born into this wilderness of north america, trying to make a stain on the earth like you. This me, the muthafucka that will kill for you. But you muthafuckas make me wanna kill YOU! I cannot believe that I am that much of an anomally. I cant believe that that you niggas dont hurt like me SOMEtime. Let me feel your heart, Please! Im telling YOU what WE need. We need medicine. we need therapy. we need music. MUSIC! That shit that make you muthafuckas want to rule the world! The shit that got you niggas through the storm. The only shit that can help a REAL NIGGA like ME get through. Where you niggas at?! HUH?! Fuck the next Lil Wayne, where the next DMX?! The next EMINEM?! The next muthafucka to grace to mic that aint to proud to be REAL. Where you niggas at that actually know this shit is HARD?! That know that life can get discouraging when you tryna get it; that know, and UNDERSTAND that we need YOU. We dont always need your muthafuckin glory. We dont always need your success story. WE do not always need your fuckin inspiration!
I cant think of one nigga out that speaks to ME. I'm bout to break my fuckin keyboard typing this shit because it breaks my heart. It breaks my muthafuckin heart knowing that aint nobody going to keep it real with me. Just sometime I need to know you real.
This fucking flesh that we are all encased in comes equipped with five sensations, i.e. FEELINGS. I don't feel you niggas and it breaks my heart. We know yal popping bottles and popping tags, "shittin on niggas"; but don't always shit on US. Don't always stunt on US. Remember US, the individuals that YOU used to be? Remember US, the muthafuckins that live off your words, remember US, the individuals that still admire YOU? Because we know somewhere in the midst of all the bravado, super id and champagne is still one of US. Still somebody that tryna be a bigger somebody. Still somebody that do't always get every little thing they desire, still somebody that's real.
We getting to the point where we cant believe you niggas. We getting to the point where we cant feel you niggas. We getting to the point where we need some reassurance that you are real. I know all you niggsas didnt grow up prince's, living in never never land and shit, where everything is sweet and you haven't a care in the world. I want to believe sometimes, just sometimes art imitates life. And I know that life is HARD. Hard as a mthafucka. And sometimes, just sometimes we need to escape. Escape into someone else's pain. Because I know its there. I sense it. I see it. I see it when you niggas go to rehab for drug abuse, when you niggas is on magazines talking bout committing suicide and MY niggas is telling ME that YOU niggas is crazy; and I'm like "nah, nah man. you cant imagine what them niggas be going thru". But i dont get the same in return. I don't get that same empathy when I'm out here trying to get it, seeing you niggas having it, and waving it in my face. So now I'm conflicted. Now I really want to hurt you niggas. I really want to rob you niggas. I really want to take your bitches and never give them back because you don't deserve them. Because you've never had to struggle for shit. Because life been real cushy for you. Because you don't seem to know what its like to be real. All you know is fantasy, party. bullshit. Where the real niggas at?
This a love letter, from the streets, letting you niggas know that even though you hurt us we still love you. So if you real, nigga show it. Otherwise, fuck you. Peace

He said he was the GREATEST!
When a Man can speak it and back it up the end result is Respect. Many might call you cocky, over- confident or arrogant, but Respect comes when the result equals what you said it would be. Mr. Ali being himself Enjoy. One of my and many others inspirators, O and i would call him STRATEGIC over any of those above negative descriptions.

On my GRIND
This blog is soon to be featured on GlobalGrind
I was sitting here meditating on what will be the perfect blog for this site and it users, and it struck me. The light went off in my head and a voice said “god, create something useful.”
So here we are at the edge of what was a great revolution, all things considered, and the brink of a new Gregorian year. Two thousand and ten years have been marked on the Christian calendar (and some 78 trillion years in actual existence), we as Supreme beings have made much progress on this third rock from the Sun, but some of us are still a little behind on the times. Therefore I take it as my duty to bring everyone up to speed in this age of information, and make sure you’re hip to the things you need to be hip to “ya dig?!” (Juelz Santana voice). For the sake of suspension because we all know how one loves countdowns, here’s another one to add a wrinkle to your frontal lobe. 5 Things We All Need To Use In 2011:
#5 Social media: I can imagine what you must be thinking right now “what does this guy think we’re stupid?! Of course we’re on facebook, twitter, etc.” But this little helping hand I’m giving you is not to insult your intelligence but to reassure that you are on point. I’m sure that almost everyone you know is on facebook and a fraction are trying to figure out how to get followers on twitter (@originalkingJ) but I mean really use it to your advantage e.g. when I meet a lady in the club I get the number ‘yatayatayata’ when we speak I casually ask her name on fb, that way I can see who she really is.
#4 YouTube: great source for all types of information and entertainment from local rap beefs hashed out via web cam to how to build a business online. Virtually anything you need to learn is taught on YouTube.
#3 iPod: Usually I’m not one to promote product lines that I don’t have a marketing contract with, but I must show respect to Apple with the iPod touch. I call it my iPDA. Very useful life saver whenever you do not want to be bothered step into the world of music with this device; long lines, lame churches, awkward family, the iPod saves.
#2 Smartphone’s: look readers, technology haven’t taken any backward steps when it comes to the mobile device. Learn your phone; many of them have the capabilities of the last three must uses.
#1 (drumroll please..) Intelligence: its 2011, this is the age of information. Intelligence is the ability to process information. If there is nothing else on this countdown that you use, make use of this, it is vital. I am starting a new movement on my blog (http://10gs.blogspot.com/) called iRead. Until next time, Stay in tune, Peace.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T / Find- out- what- it meaaans to me
Respect Respect Respect has been on mind lately. I listen to everybody and respect, trust and love are all ciphers that we talk about often; and we all have different definitions of each. REAL QUICK! WHICH ONE IS THE MOST CRITICAL TO THE OPERATION OF PROGRESS AND FUNCTIONALITY? Respect, trust or love?(remember)Like in morals class there is no wrong answer here, pure BUILDING and adding on. I argue that respect is the knee cap of the leg. Respect allows different ciphers with opposing views to live in unision or attempt at it at least. Respect keeps civility. Without respect how would we treat people we don't love or trust? If im dealing with 85 to 99 percent of people in my daily actions that i have not had a chance to know well enough to trust and love, what holds that function of life together to add on? I argue again that it is RESPECT. In society and in the home, though many are dis-respectful (which to each person is defined differently) we have done a decent job as people of drilling in respect in a direct and indirect way.
In my 3rd (my mind) i remember one of my brothers saying a line like, " Respect is to Acknowledge, and we do the knowledge...when you knowledge someone or acknowledge a cipher then you are showing respect and respect is very important." We can philosphise all day, and i will continue, but i see clearly from my embracement of respect that i can apply, have applied and should continue daily to respect life and people around me even more, which will naturally bring myself more respect, maintian current harmony and add on in a proper manner. I see clearly keeping my word to myself is respect, and acting daily to live up to my standards for who?SELF and respecting self first off will bring good fruit.
I picked up two bright gems while discussing, reflecting and researching respect.
#1. "Respect is to acknowledge" adding from that gem i see respect as observing before judging and paying attention and/or showing someone that you know and understand how the positive result occured.( e.g a basketball player who just scored, pointing his finger at the passer to show respect because he acknowleges that his teammate made a good and unselfish play)
#2!!! MAKE SURE OTIS REDDING GETS HIS RESPECT WHEN YOU THINK OF THAT huge 1967 hit song R-E-S-P-E-C-T sung by the great Aretha Franklin. Now that song will be remembered for years by me (and i'm even bopping my head listening to it while i write the rest of this), but CAN OTIS REDDING GET HIS RESPECT man... The Original man sang the original song in 1965.
I understand in 1965 nobody might have really been trying to hear the black man talk about can he get some respect when he comes home....shooooot they are still not trying to hear that and with Aretha Franklins voice and Atlantic Records's connections it took off.
An excerpt from wikipedia on this topic; ~ "Her version is often considered as one of the best songs of the R&B era, earning her two Grammy Awards in 1968 for "Best Rhythm & Blues Recording" and "Best Rhythm & Blues Solo Vocal Performance, Female", and was inducted in the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1998. In 2002, the Library of Congress honored Franklin's version by adding it to the National Recording Registry. It is number five on Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time" ~
Being an original man i understand people not recognizing the foundation of greatness. Plus i just have a deep appreciation for originality and authenticity. It is the spark of evolution and greatness!! Check out the foundation to that great song.
An excerpt from wikipedia ~ " Otis Redding wrote and recorded "Respect" as a blues tune in the studio while finishing his third album, Otis Blue. The album became widely successful, even outside of his largely R&B and blues fanbase. When released in the summer of 1965, the song reached the top five on Billboard's Black Singles Chart, and crossed over to pop radio's white audience, peaking at number thirty-five there. At the time, the song became Redding's second largest crossover hit (after "I've Been Loving You Too Long") and paved the way to future presence at American radio."
listen and enjoy.. Peace fam
