Atiba’s Musings ??

( A Warrior’s Understanding )

Ever caught yourself defending your beliefs, even when you're not sure why? ?? When our perspectives clash, can we still coexist peacefully, or does it always turn into conflict?

I’ve been reflecting on the idea of “mine and my - how our instinct to protect and possess what we believe can lead to unnecessary struggles. This often comes from fear - fear of loss, fear of judgment, fear of not fitting in. But when we approach the world from a place of fear, we miss out on the love and respect that come from truly understanding others.

In my latest video, I explore how different perspectives don’t have to lead to conflict. Instead, they can coexist in harmony. The key is shifting from “mine” to recognizing that all perspectives have value. No need to defend what is simply your truth.

This shift can help us break free from fear and possessiveness, allowing us to move toward peace, growth, and mutual respect for each other’s realities. ??

I’d love to hear your thoughts on this. How do you navigate differing perspectives in your work and personal life? Drop a comment, and let’s keep the conversation going!

Book I’m Currently Reading ??

I’ve been immersing myself in The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattles, and I can honestly say it’s a game-changer. This book flips the script on how we think about wealth and success. It teaches us that getting rich isn’t about chance, it's about cultivating the right mindset and taking aligned action.

What really hit home for me: The idea that wealth is a natural outcome of thought and intention. It’s not just about working harder, but about thinking in a certain way and acting from a place of abundance. The more I reflect on it, the more I see how this mindset can transform the way we approach not only our finances but the impact we’re meant to create.

How this is shifting my approach: I’m now focusing on aligning my thoughts and actions with my purpose and vision. Instead of just aiming for more, I’m aiming for abundance—not just for myself but for the teams and communities I work with. It’s about embracing the idea that wealth and success flow when we act with intention and a positive, abundant mindset.

If you haven’t read The Science of Getting Rich, do yourself a favor and grab a copy. If you’ve read it, I’d love to hear what stood out to you. Let’s talk about how this book is shaping our path to success.

And hey, what’s on your reading list for personal growth right now?

Dinner With Friends???

What an incredible evening in Atlanta, Georgia on December 7! We exchanged powerful stories, formed meaningful connections, and experienced those moments that hit with such clarity. This wasn’t just another dinner - it was a gathering of like-minded individuals, coming together to challenge, inspire, and elevate one another in a way that truly made an impact.

Every Dinner With Friends has its own magic, and this one was no different - it just hit differently. The energy in the room was electric, the conversations were real and raw, and the connections felt like they went straight to the heart.

We laughed, we shared stories that really struck a chord, and we met people who just got it. It was one of those nights that leaves you feeling inspired and recharged, reminding you why these moments matter so much. Each dinner is special in its own way, and this one was no exception.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us - this night wouldn’t have been the same without you! Jeff Craft (Kali Das) Gabriel Vangelatos Robert Lee Eric Saunders ?? David Asarnow ?? Steve Adams Dr. Catrice Barrett Lorrie Thomas Ross Michelle Jacobik Victoria Caldwell
