I've thought deeply about this for long now, for long have I asked myself, "What do they have, what attributes sets them apart from us?"

I've come up with these four, four very important attributes needed in a man for absolute success but are lacking in the average Black Man.

1. PRIDE. When we hear the word PRIDE the next thing that comes to our minds are arrogance, pompousness, rudeness, intolerance, show-off, extravagance, loudness, all sorts of character vanities, right? If so then we are on a long ride here. Well you see the Black man possesses all those characters mentioned already, even more than the other races.

So what kind of PRIDE do I speak of here?!

Imagine a lion, a male lion in his PRIDE. He is responsible for absolute order, security, stability, dignity, honor, of its entire PRIDE. A lion will fight any, I mean any creature or beast to protect and uphold the honor of its territory and race. Its PRIDE.

You see, unlike the lion, unlike other races of men, the Black Man lacks that kind of PRIDE. While all those other groups will never bow, never sell each other out, never accept to be called second or second fiddle, never accept shame, never throw away their honor and dignity. But always strive tooth and nail to be the first, be the best, be the centre of attention, be the ones at the tip top, the most respected, most competitive, most admired, respected, most comfortable, strongest and protected, for themselves but not just themselves alone but their families, their home, their brothers, their communities and society, their country and race, their own.

On the other hand we have the Black Man. He steals from his own, his community and country, he cheats his own, he betrays his own, he kills his own, he dishonors his own, he abandons his own, he hates his own, he despises his own, he wrecks his own and destroys his own. Then he take whatever good things he stole to the home and countries of his despisers. He has no burning desire to bring honor and pride to the name of his ancestors, family and country, he doesn't care that he and his own are mocked, laughed at, despised, insulted, beaten, rejected, kicked and killed, doesn't care that they starve, are homeless, unclothed, dirty, bleed, exhausted, tasty, idle, hopeless, homeless. No he doesn't GaF about anything that concerns his own and his image. He has little or no burning desire or inbuilt incentive to do those in the name of his own.

Eat, F*ck, laugh, drink and smoke, wear clothes, spend outside home, sleep, talk and think unproductive things, get angry over unworthy and little things, admire and amass women, be unproductive, expect hand outs and beg for help always. Ring a bell?

Stand straight, chest out, breath from your stomach out, your eyes fixed ahead, with purpose, determination, unrelenting, with your dignity, your honor and self respect, passionate. That is a PROUD man, that my friends is the PRIDE I talk about.
