Self-Mastery the power to control one's actions, impulses, or emotions. We as people who's classified as Black must learn this technique. As blacks 99 percent of the time we move off/on emotions, and where does that get us?? We have to become masters when it comes to thinking in order to beat the system. What's the system White Supremacy and most people are scared or just blind when the topic of Racism comes up. We said “Black Lives Matter” then they said “All lives matter” not disagreeing with them but if the statement/phase “Black Lives Matter” didn't appear we wouldn't have heard “all lives matter”. Saying that to say when we bring up black issues it becomes well what about white, midgets gays all poor people? No one Wants to address the issues black people have all around the world. As blacks we have to clean up as individuals before we can come together as one. Self-Mastery is the Key as well as self-discipline. We bless ourselves by helping someone else. Everyone has a purpose “The purpose of life is to have a life full of purpose, so give your life meaning"
