Honoring the Heroes of September 11th, 2001 Today, we pause to remember the brave souls who were tragically taken from us on September 11th, 2001. It was a day that shook the very core of our nation, leaving an indelible mark on our history. As we pay our respects to those who lost their lives in the attacks and during the long war on terror that followed, we are reminded of the precious gift of freedom that we hold dear. 🗽 Our greatest tribute to their memory is to cherish the liberties we enjoy each day. 🙏 We are blessed to be here, to have the opportunity to build a legacy, and to create generational wealth for our families and communities. 🏡 Investing passively into real estate syndications is not just about financial gains; it's about securing our future and embracing the freedom for which so many paid the ultimate price. 🏢 In honoring those we remember today, we send a powerful message to those who sought to destroy us: We will not be defeated. We stand united, resilient, and determined to protect the values and way of life that make our nation great. 🇺🇸 Let us remember, let us honor, and let us continue to build a brighter future together. 🌟 #NeverForget #September11 #UnitedWeStand #wealthmindset #realestateinvesting #multifamilyrealestate #financialintelligence #thepharmainvestor #doingboth

The greatest challenge for anyone who has in their lifetime received any form of power or a platform, is to work to distribute that power so that the privileges they have acquired are distributed over the many, shielding them from the harshest consequences of challenging structural power. Instead, power is immediately corruptive. The natural instinct to accumulate discourages us from sharing it. So for those who rise to prominence as champions of justice and the people, they are faced with a dilemma. Their newly acquired fame is in contradiction with their drive for justice, but the privileges (admiration, fame, money, prestige, dignity) are too good, and the energy required to build the infrastructure to distribute that power is too great. Communicating justice is just so much easier than building it. So what happens? They fall back on their own inflated sense of morality in the same manner that monarchs evoked the divine right of kings in the past. Their egos grow and buy into their self-aggrandizing narrative that they are superior in morality and capability than the masses. They spend hours communicating their disappointment with society at the expense of building the structural power that can actually do anything. They spend hours shaming folks for not being more like them. They encourage folks to take risks, risks that their newly acquired fame and power mitigate for them. This cycle of boosting faux heroes will continue to harm us all until we all have had enough and build the communal power needed to tamper egos, and distribute power, risks, and rewards.

On this Memorial Day, we honor the extraordinary bravery and sacrifice of our fallen heroes, whose courage knows no bounds. Their legacy lives on in the hearts of a grateful nation. 🇺🇸 #MemorialDay #DigitalMarketing #DigitalMarketingCommunity #TeamCollaboration #MarketingSuccess #DigitalInnovation #DigitalMarketing #Burbank #DigitalMarketingNews

Peace demands more, not less, from a people. Peace lacks the clarity of purpose and the cadence of war. War is scripted; peace is improvisation. #91dayyear #liveonpurpose #HaveyourBestWeek #HBCUbiz #HBCU #Blackbusiness #GrowYourBusiness #4GChallenge

Agreed Linda Burney 16 years ago this one word marked an important ocassion and maturity in our nation’s history book. We need to see that same conviction, grit, determination and compassion of former PM Kevin Rudd in this current day Australian Labor Party (ALP) Government. Stolen Generation impacts are still being felt by our people and communities. Close the Gap measures are not being met. Policy and funding is inadequate and does not reflect an urgency to act, respond, bring about equity and heal our people and nation - particular in the aftermath of a failed referendum. The latest Anthony Albanese / Jim Chalmers Federal Budget does not reflect an ALP Goverment that made this momentous apology 16 years ago, nor the solmn promise to Close the Gap. The Budget could and should have been a watershed moment alike the apology to the Stolen Generations, instead it is a missed opportunity and lack of leadership that will compound the continued failure to Close the Gap. If this Budget is an ALP Goverment with a $9B surplus, I’d hate to think what policy and funding looks like with a deficit. It’s time to move beyond words and symbolism. It’s time to act! Australian Government .
