Greetings, welcome to another episode of Truth of Power and I'm your host, Tamsnip Knight and tonight we're gonna be talking about discipline and self-discipline But first recently I want to get into this. Aisha Curran recently with the wife of basketball superstar, Steph Curran recently made some comments on Jenna Pinkett's show, Red Table Talk, in which she said that she wished that the main desire to her more as in the same fashion as the women desire her name and this created a social media storm, I can even say she's strong because a lot of people just told Jenna gave their whole opinion on the situation if you could call it that but I think at the same time they were exposing their own securities as well Now I don't find anything wrong with what Aisha Curran said. She was basically saying socially she wants to be on the same status as I said as well as people noticing her or people being around her and you can get that because you could just imagine if you were married to somebody like Beyonce and a thousand men just desired her, you know, you would feel like a place because Beyonce is a superstar and people kind of know of you as Beyonce's man, but they don't really know you, you know, you know, I'm saying so you kind of feel that place and I get what she was coming from with that and I don't think it was anything wrong with what she said but a lot of people were going in on Aisha saying oh well, she got it all and she's still complaining that's not the point the point is she still wants to be feel desired now, you know, Steph Curran somehow made her feel like she isn't being desired then that's a conversation we need to have between each other but there was definitely not the one what she said you know and Even looking at Aisha Terry you have to miss she's a very attractive woman. She's a homemaker.
She's basically if there was a picture of life material as far as I've seen from her and how she conducts herself and how she handles herself in a media and public then she'll be it be totally honest with you. She'll be it. She has the whole thing going on with her self being a shelf and she's with an old skis and she seems to be my own homemaker and that's what if they were admitted or not most me want to be honest with ourselves, but I don't find anything wrong with what she said, but a lot of people were talking down to her but they were really without even knowing they were really exposing their own insecurities and how they really feel about themselves because when she said that a lot of people just came out like, you know, other drawers just kind of down talker but you know It's just just something to think about, you know, everybody had their own insecurities but it's something to think I'm like about themselves but doing the work and being able to work on it, I think there's something that could be applauded as well. So so hopefully they work on that and hopefully everybody out there well works on their own insecurities and we've got a number one in this name that we call life but next I'm gonna talk about Discipline which is the thing where they show now Now if I go to listen to the show you guys know that I like definitions So let me define discipline for you.
Discipline is defined. It is in a noun form is defined as the practice of training people to obey rules or code of behavior using punishment to correct to correct disobedience Now as far as the verb term of it Trains someone to obey rules or code of behavior using punishment to correct disobedience. Now We the black people we need to practice more discipline. We need to practice more discipline in this world and amongst each other Now the reason why I say that is because for the most part I see people They're getting out of weight with certain things And even me myself Sometimes I could be on discipline sometimes I could lose my temper and flower to him but there's a place in other town for everything and Recently Ramadan has come up and I practice it Ramadan practices long for those who don't know but Or Islamic faith I'm say that but also don't know but Ramadan has come up and the past and part of it is very difficult to say the least You have the first basically all day and pray and Stand on schedule with something like that or stand on schedule is something like that could be very difficult But if you're both something bad enough, you're gonna be disciplined for it If you want to change something bad enough for gold or anything you're gonna be disciplined for it You're gonna study you're gonna Do your due diligence to make sure that they call is achieved Sometimes we as black people will start something but we're unable to finish and that's a lack of discipline And we need to get over that I have the big thing right now Which I'm very proud of I'm very proud of these guys that we're doing I'm proud that Reparations is on the table.
That's why the competition go and we are not leaving a battlefield early We are staying on the battlefield. We are demanding reparations for how we are treated in this country which we deserve But also that's one thing It's political landscape stay in this one with that and not look at the democratic party there in shambles Which goes to show you the power of discipline There's another thing that black people need to become disciplined in and that's And I'm in so fitness then that's good finish now one thing that I hear that I hear constantly Is that I am happy with myself or how I look on Outside Well, even for health reasons you need to work out if you're fat Yes, yes, I said if you're fat you need to work out You need to find time in your schedule to trim that fed out Because we need as a We need a society of people That are fit and that already for battle Because in case I haven't noticed these white supremacists are waiting for against us Now we don't need a whole bunch of society about healthy fat people we need a society of people and since shape that are militaristic No, hyperbism and about the survival and part of being hyperbism about survival is Fitness and working out and taking care of yourself taking care of your body your body as your temple you give me Your body is a temple and I'm in ways that you could go about being disciplined or staying on a strict schedule, okay? Okay, so one way to stick to be stick to healthy diet or To be more healthy is to the one Stop with realistic expectations Two take up a really motivational Three keep my healthy foods out of the house and you know you guys are controlled over it. You have control of it Four don't have an all-nothing approach Meaning don't have a pro talk about those all these weight and I'm not gonna be able to lose none of it You gotta have a pro second take this dumb bastard because it's not gonna happen overnight You need to take something step faster and become more healthier Five carry healthy snacks now they already have this next out there's almonds.
There's fruit There's all types of things out there that you could eat and be healthy You could six Exercise and change diet at the same time now With this when you exercise You don't always need a gym But I would recommend a jump because a jump has more resources than outside world like a lot of people claim that they like to go to The strike they're outside in like nature, but even when they got that nature they don't give it their own They don't give it their hearties to be completely honest with you from what I've seen and people need to change that Seven have a game plan before eating up meaning Already just stick to your diet already be able to Say to yourself Listen, I'm ready to change my life I'm ready to have a more healthier lifestyle and there's nothing wrong with that now Even for health reasons and you claim that you're so happy with being where you at nobody should ever be satisfied to People should always want more always one more and we need to as a black people we need to become more disciplined in my opinion Self deprivation is the straightest form of discipline and self discipline The strictest form We need to do things we need to say things and stick by verb we need to start things and we need to finish them We need to cross that finish line now. I've never really had a problem with this plan being disciplined All the way, you know, we're not probably like fighting schools and stuff like that But as far as like waking up all time and being a being places early that we had a problem with that Like I tell people my father he was a sergeant in our army my grandmother She was born in 1913. So she felt like everybody had to be up at a certain time and those two people they raised me so it's So with that we can't discipline. I think so me discipline without even knowing it I really really know they're just going about their way But if you see that as a child and you're gonna pick up some habits of your parental The birth to people that um raise you right?
so that's why we are doing it and We need to get get better at it now want to talk about Sun Sun's rules book the order war within the order war he had a mom and sir book in that way he was talking about teaching this plan he said that They brought women warriors people couldn't believe that he could Teach women how to go to war so happy was he brought the women to become warriors and And the women were very jovial they were laughing they were um Just making a macro the whole session. So he brought two women up front with swords He said now battle and they begin to laugh So he said okay, maybe you didn't hurt me. They hit me. He said battle and then I wanted to just continue to just laugh and He chopped up both the heads with the sword He said if you didn't hear me the first time then that's my fault But the second time that's on you He did that in front of everybody chopped up their hair from everybody So the next two women he brought up the he said now battle and they began to battle they began to fight You know, and that's how we got to be with each other.
That's how we got to be in this society We have to be disciplined and I'm not talking about I'm using a chopper to head part of as An analogy But I'm not asking you guys doing anything that is stream what I'm asking to do is if you have people that surround you That's not discipline and they don't want to be disciplined with you Then you need to chop their proverbial head off and keep it moving get away from If I'm round them because we're in places and black society we need discipline people around us We don't need people that are in discipline. They want to go to the club every weekend. They want to go for every weekend There's tools and just being a discipline. We need people that are serious.
They won't progression and they'll progress up in within the society And within our society we don't need undisciplining people around us No, now going out now I'm it going out every now and then it gives you a relief from this system of my supremacy That we have to deal with every day however The best way to do with the system is to be progressive and to move forward and also be prepared Because I like it all saying if you stay ready you don't have to get ready So we have to be disciplined and prepared and ready at all times Now, thank you guys for joining me tonight on I just want and also this that's all I want to say tonight I've been very busy on this document around and working everything else and know my own business and It's been very difficult for me to even find time to do it by the cans But I've been finding time to do it and I'm gonna continue to do it. I just want to thank people for listening and continue to win Me and that's it. I just spoke truth to power. Thank you.
Good night
