Be on a platform called hop in like I said all that will be in the description box below uh doing when you watch this video you can check all that out okay so that’s the first thing now today real quick we’re going to talk about social sciences we’re going to get kind of
Boring but I want to give you guys a little bit of informative video for once you know change it up a little bit right because I kind of realized I got roped into some stuff you know and I don’t want to really go down that road all the time
I’m all about the smoke but sometimes I said to myself maybe if I clarify I’m going to try to talk a little bit slower maybe if I clarify what this is really all about then maybe people will kind of understand what it is that is missing
From the lives of males and how does it affect us and why is it driving us right there something missing from our lives and it’s really driving us and we don’t understand what it is okay but without rehashing a bunch of arguments and there’s been a bunch of arguments about
Socialization uh mainting socializing mainting and dating in the western world without rehashing any of arguments I’m just going to kind of give you a answer to what it is that you’re really doing right there’s a question this is the answer so without further Ado we’re going to talk about Marlo’s hierarchy of
Needs now this is the 1943 Paradigm this is how long it’s been out since 1943 now Abraham Marlo was an American psychologist who created marso’s hierarchy of needs it’s a psychological theory of what motivates you what gets you up in the morning what drives you what gives you your passion how do you
Move from one stage to a next stage to a next stage in your life towards one goal self-actualization and quite simply you can research that for yourself but my interpretation of self-actualization is it is just me realizing my full potential and he discovered the theory that one cannot reach their full
Potential until a lot of needs are met a lot of needs have to be met right so this is the 1943 Paradigm it’s pretty rough it’s been updated to this it’s been updated to this more colorful more snazzy you know right so people say okay we have again like I said I can
Only speak for African-American men and some black men if they accept me to speak for them but I can only speak for African-American men because I’m African-American man I can’t speak for any of the other men you know because they have their own things going on so I
G to speak for us now people say that there is a a large column of us traveling the globe and it’s not really that many I actually have my EG heads working on the numbers for you right now and I’m going to have how many African-American men have passports
Where they travel how often they travel what they spend and how many of them are in one country at a particular time every quarter so I’m going have those numbers for you because I think that’s going to kill this argument right it’s going to kill this argument so look out
For that video it’s going to be called the argument to kill all arguments that’s what that video is going to be called coming soon couple of weeks I’ll have all that information for you so a lot of people are out here with this progenitive basically I call it a a
Racial slur at this point it’s called passport Bros I call them peanut butter and jelly right it’s a prenative it’s a it’s a racial slur and so they say that we’re all out here in the hundreds of thousands you the way they talk about this the hundreds of thousands I
Estimate it’s really more like low 10 thousands like when I say tens I mean really low like maybe 20,000 tops around the globe in different different quarters right so that’s really like 5,000 a quarter every three months travel in different countries and such but what is the reason
What is the reason that so many of us leave a place that we’re very familiar with we’re very rooted in we’re very comfortable with what is the reason that many of us leave and off we go to foreign lands we have difficulties communicating we have difficulties understanding the culture I can tell you
A lot of misunderstandings happen every day but it’s just that it’s just misunderstandings because there’s a difference in the culture so so right here is the modern version of Marlo’s hierarchy of needs and as you see you have the psychological needs you have the safety needs you have love and
Belonging you have esteem and you have self-actualization okay and by the way I hope you like the new Winner Circle polos red I just got this in today made to measure don’t forget to place your order made to measure Winner Circle I got some new drip coming out real soon
For you but this is you know we got more of versions of the colors coming out we’ll talk about that in the next couple of days but right now this is the red one I love it looks good on me this is different than the other red one I had
Because that one was silk this one is cotton and of course as you can see the collar is different the collar is white and crisp and everything so hope you guys like this one you can get any color you want but you know I have a particular set of colors that work well
With me and I can coated to my style of dress okay so anyway now back to this so mlo said that in order to reach the top here which is the blue part this blue part right here self-actualization desire to become the most that one can
Be that can be anything for a lot of people okay for me it’s personal but I have a I have a set amount of number I have a set number that says this is my this is my accumulation of riches this is my number this is my future for
Myself how I see myself when I’m an old old old man and my legacy all right how I want the people that are right now like my niece and my nephew and maybe some children grandchildren right what I want them to think about me when they
Get to be my age that I am today right so that’s self actualization now how do I get there how do I stay motivated how do I keep the drive how do I move through these right so Mar says first you got to meet your psychological needs
You got to meet your air water food shelter sleeping clothing and reproduction so there we go now right now what’s going on in the Western World pretty difficult mating dating it’s pretty complicated it’s I say personally subjectively it’s non-existent it’s a waste of time I wouldn’t waste any more
Time doing it you’re going to get the same outcome we see all the Tik Tok videos if I could find a way to get all this together and I think I have I’m going to show you how it’s all been Bast bastardized where you have like you go
Out on a date and the woman says no restaurant is good enough shoot if I said benih Hana she might say that’s not good enough so now you’re picking Michelin fourstar restaurants and maybe she says well that’s not good enough either right so you’re dealing with an illusion of
Success look that up an illusion of success which is why it’s a wrap it’s dead but what happens with that is why we can do the air the water food shelter sleep and clothing like I got my clothing together right when I have a sleep problem I got my sleep problem
Together right shelter food right fat boy water air right but the reproduction the reproduction is not being met now here goes the thing in order to move to the next tier the safety needs you have to meet all these needs at the bottom so if the reproduction isn’t being met guess what
You can’t advance to the next level now there’s some men out there who are able to make the reproduction needs occur for them they’re not so picky they pretty much settled they’re like okay should do she’s got a good head no mental illness in the family everybody comes out
Healthy and you know normal right so you get the reproduction needs now you go to the next level which is the safety needs there you have your personal security your employment your resources health and property now by the way I forgot this part I’m also going to have a link
To a checklist below and you’ll be able to get more details about each of these and also check off on the list to see where you’re at to see what you have what you don’t have okay so we can come back and focus on those I’ll do another Symposium probably in the spring
Probably around Father’s day where we we we’ll work on those together right so because I have the same issue too I’m trying to get to the top just like everybody else trying to get up here so for me I get vulnerable with you guys for me I don’t have children so for me
Reproductive so I haven’t really been able to go past psychological because I don’t have any kids I haven’t met the reproductive version of myself yet right so I’m still at the bottom but let’s say I have kids a lot of you have kids so now you go to safety needs personal
Safety employment resources Health property now we know as African-American men Living in America personal safety is one we’re not meeting employment is another one resources health and property are all ones that we’re not meeting so we don’t even have those yet right so without those we can’t even go to the next one
But I’m just going to go over all them because some of us have these things working for us and some of us don’t so now you go to the next one and this one is very interesting you have love and belonging that’s this one right here friendship intimacy family sense of
Connection okay friendship my personal opinion this era I don’t want to use that word um is it apathy apathetic but I want to say really I’ll say antisocial but let me take a look here I think the word I want to use is apathetic which means a hatred of humankind
Um no that’s not it but I would say this this is um a very antisocial society and that’s another um discussion but let me see hold on let me see here a hatred let me see here what is that word a hatred of humans I want to say
Really that this era has a hatred a hatred of humans they hate Humanity a hatred of humanity that’s what it is there’s a word Miss and Thor yeah I would say today a lot of African-American men are missing thought okay and we’ll talk about that more later but it’s just
Basically simply a hatred or a general dislike of human species meaning us we have a general hatred and a general dislike of each other I see it every day it’s insane everything it’s insane it’s insane so that right there goes into personal security and resources and health mental
Health right so these are all the things that got to be met now I don’t got to go into everything in detail but we know unemployment is high for us we know we don’t have a lot of a lot of um economic wealth that’s resources we can’t rely on
Each other we know we have health problems and we know we don’t really own a lot of property there was a thing I just saw today about how most of the single uh homeowners are women that’s another thing they’re throwing in our face right women are the largest group
Of single homeowners in America so then you got that now the few of us that maybe have personal security I don’t think any of us have personal security unless you leave the snakes and have our own company or are retired and have saved a substantial amount of we wealth
Or created a substantial amount of wealth for themselves have good health and own a home abroad another country or maybe even in the snakes they meet those safety needs they can go to the next level which is love and belonging and love and belonging uh is the friendships the
Intimacy family sense of connection like I just mentioned where’re very antisocial so you could cut off friendships what do I mean by that well people throw this term around socially awkward again like I said even these joggings are awful the the joggins that we use are awful socially awkward where
Did that come from but I’ll give you an example people talk about things like this but they behave in the same way that’s another thing I’ll go into some other time but so for example for me personally I have gone to places and a lot of this
Has happened right here in Tha I have hung out with people well I have been acquainted with people going to a place with them and then for what whatever reason I decide that you know what I don’t want to deal with that person no more that person is too pessimistic for
Me they’re just or they’re a cynic one or the other too pessimistic too cynical I don’t want to deal with them so I end the interaction favorably and then I go to another place and I see them there and they act like they don’t even know
Me and of course I just keep myself I keep my distance but they really like don’t even know me so that’s what I mean by socially awkward they create a socially awkward event themselves now I may be like hey what’s up how you doing you know shake their hand or I may send
Them a drink just as a you know just as a a gester of kindness to acknowledge is that I’m in the same room as somebody who I used to go to the same place with so when we talk about and and a funny thing is some of these people that
I’ve experienced this with have used that term socially awkward in describing others and sometimes describe it myself but the point is this is the behavior that they exhibit I’m just a private person I just like my anonymity I just like to be anonymous I don’t like a
Whole lot of attention and fan fear and I don’t do well with strangers and I don’t do all that stuff right I know that so I keep my Reserve I keep myself reserved but that’s what I mean intimacy and family now intimacy of course can be many things before for
African-American men when we think about intimacy we think about a female a woman right that’s what we contribute intimacy to and that might be one of the reasons why we left the snakes to go find that because we’re not finding that in in the west so a lot of brothers I think that
Are up here on this third level Lov and belonging they they don’t have the friendships some of them but they don’t have the friendships if they’re in a fraternity or some type of meale organization they would have the friendships like a frat definitely have the friendships the Brotherhood right
Something along those lines but they definitely lack the intimacy with women so they travel family is affected by that because now they’re away from their kids and their wife I’ve known guys that were married and got children they got all the things that I want and I’m like why are you
Here why are you out here I know I’m out here I’m a San Playboy San Playboy I just Kidd but you know I am a Playboy but you have a family when you travel four months out of the year five six months out of the year you’re away from
Your family you know so in the in the search for intimacy the family is hurt right and again you have a sense of connection do we have communities in these other countries right I went to Brazil many years ago when I first started traveling because I was told that was where there
Was a expat community of African-American men doesn’t exist just doesn’t exist there’s a handful of dudes down there that boast about being on there for many many years but when I went down there and I’m talking about going back to the the the Allen Harpers and those type of guys
That took over for the late great Charles Tyler he rest in power who BR us all out here really I I credit a lot of this to Charles Tyler but anyway it just didn’t exist you know what I’m saying it just didn’t exist and I really felt like a lone wolf a lone
Gun that’s where that comes from travel wolf so sense of connection right so you can’t get to the next level till you get that then there’s esteem so we have respect self-esteem status recognition strength freedom and I don’t I don’t think any of us are there so I don’t
Need to go any further none of us are there with esteem because the mothers the women who look like us need I say more like I said I don’t want to create other arguments or rehash new arguments but that part we haven’t even got there obviously right maybe a couple
Of us have self-esteem but like I said before you can go to each of the levels you have to complete the whole level so for me unfortunately I’m at I’m still at psychological needs because I don’t have the reproduction even though I’m meeting my safety needs and I’m not really meeting my L
And belonging but I’m meeting them my safety needs I really can’t stand on safety needs until I get the reproduction out of the way so with that being being said you know what time it is it’s baby making time but how has that been going well hasn’t been going too well the pickings
The pickings are slim but I just don’t want to be involved with somebody because you want a child you know and then again I have a whole set of priorities and a whole set of uh principles so whoever I choose to be a wife or whatever I would have to know
Them for several years like three or four years before I even consider them to be something serious so counting off counting off the time I have left this I got I gotta do this really soon because a lot of guys have already given me advice and they’ve told me I might have
To consider that that window opportunity has gone away it’s over I had many chances I overlooked them I didn’t take them seriously that window of opportunity is gone move on find find a new purpose but one thing I think I would really regret is not having children that’s one thing I think I
Would really really regret so I raised my niece and my nephew they’re like my children surrogate but it’s not the same thing I don’t think it’s not the same thing as hearing something you created something you bring into the world call you father you know I think that really
Would change me a lot so but anyway this is what this is what this is all about I I show you guys this because I want you to go and study do your own take leave your feedback in the comments below and let me know what you think and how you
Feel about what I’m talking about if you have a better insight to it I welcome that objectiveness too because I’m still growing and learning and this is just something that I’ve been telling around with myself for several years trying to figure out so if you are a licensed
Psychologist and you can explain it better please do but I’m doing the best I can to just introduce us to something new because like I said um the last couple of weeks I’ve been very fun very interesting but I don’t know how I got roped into a lot of stuff I wome it
Though I welcome it though because I see the brothers being taken advantage of I hate to say Brothers but I see African-American men being taken advantage of being um attacked and I feel it’s my honor to stand up and defend us even against those who look
Like us because guess what they say all skinn Folk anent kin folk right so hey I’m all for that and people come at me and try to say hey these crazy things that they want to do and these crazy allegations and things and they say these crazy things that aren’t true like
I’m supposed to be quiet I’m supposed to back down I’m not supposed to stand up for myself my own kind and to that I say never going to happen so make sure you check this out Mars’s hierarchy of needs um make sure you click the link below
For the um 2024 black Futures month Symposium going to be a great discussion I’m going to share with you guys and I hope you enjoyed this video I hope this has breaken up the monotony of what’s going on something different something nerdy yes like I said I’m a big nerd and
Like I said let me know in the comments where are you on the Paradigm I’m still here only because of one thing as you know I have a clothing brand so the clothing’s Met um and I had some sleep issues I got that taken care of shelter food air
Water that’s always been taken care of the food the shelter right the air the water that’s a basic reproduction I don’t have but for safety needs to have all the safety needs so maybe that’s what maybe that’s what’s affected my my Lov and belonging with friendships and intimacy right because I’m not really
Officially on these two levels until I accomplish reproduction so but this is the goal this is the goal we all want self actualization desire to become the most that one can be put away the pettiness act in a certain principle way that you put away the pettiness you put
Away the drama you put away all that how how the somebody keeps throwing these scriptures out but I’ll throw this one at them I’m not even going to name them because I don’t want to keep this stuff going going and going but I was say there’s a saying that um it’s a Biblical
Saying that goes uh where I was a boy I acted like a boy I thought like a boy when I became a man I put away all my Boyhood things or childish things right when I was a child something like that so that’s all I got to say for today
Guys and once again thank you for watching don’t forget to ask me any questions about the Symposium and thank you for your day peace
