You are officially invited to join the jolly-journey! For over 14 years now I have been on the Jolly-Journey to find pathways that unblind our faith about wealth as a legacy.
In my travels across the country I have raised awareness about the important role wealth plays in ensuring the legacy continues in our communities. The responses have revealed so many jolly-good things that exist along the road to wealth in our communities. There is more to come as the next phase requires a collective — hence my invitation.
JOIN THE JOURNEYJolly means: to encourage in a lively and entertaining way. Journey means: an act of traveling from one place to another. A journey is often a long and difficult process of personal change and development.Β
It is a tradition in the black community to believe that one day we shall overcome. Almost unconscious we pass on the expectation that each generation will get closer to the promise we all through our shared narrative of history have inherited.
Within our narrative resides the business fact that we (mean African Americans) are the only segment of the us population who were first assets before we owned assets. We arrived here on the balance sheet and participated in the creation of the original business model of America.
Our life journeys are in some way derivatives of that original business model. We are assets who are in need of a roadmap to elevate our position on the road to wealth — from that of a creator of wealth for others to a wealth creator for ourselves.
This way remembers the promises and what our ancestors overcame to provide us the opportunity to inherit such an invitation to this elevated Journey.
My invitation is not just any journey. It is a jolly journey whose invitation is alive with the torches that have been passed to us to shine light on the road ahead.
