Yes, this is very true.
Brothers who violate this rule prove that they are insecure within
themselves. They worry about what the
next brother is wearing, how much money he makes, what kind of car he drives,
etc. Meanwhile their mind is fixated on
you and wonders why your format is not the same as theirs. Why are you not following the latest trend in
fashion? Why are you not driving the latest
car? This makes me sick to my
stomach. If you come across one of these
“Clones”
do not panic, get nervous or be embarrassed.
Instead their opinion of you should be irrelevant because deep down
inside they wish they WERE you. Let me explain, a “Clone” is a person who does not have
a mind of their own. Within this cultural landscape he will follow his flock of
sheep and they are not hard to find.
Just go to the latest club, take a walk downtown or even look out your
window. For example, Little Trey may wear skinny jeans with his pants hanging
off his ankles displaying his dirty draws just because he seen Little Wayne on
the BET Awards promoting this style. If
someone who is influential to you jumps off the cliff would you jump off the
cliff? Do not replicate what someone
else is doing. Continue to be your own
man, stay unique, and challenge the latest trend. If you rather drive a “bucket” as your
transportation to save money for something more important versus paying a high
car note more than your rent shows that you do not want to be in debt. If you wake up and decide to wear blue
timberland boots compare to everyone else wearing tan timberland boots shows
that you have your own style. This
displays leadership qualities and the oil to your engine is confidence. These two elements combine together makes you
stand out in the world because you are not a carbon copy like everyone else.
Men, you have the power to change. Your standard of living and philosophical mindset based on thirsty behavior is not setting a good example. Classy women will throw you automatically into the rejected pile if they sense this way of thinking. What concerns me the most is how brothers market themselves onto the dating scene and the assumption they make when they speak to a beautiful woman. Money flashers believe it is a walk in the park that they can get any woman they want. Most thirsty men try to impress women with their financial assets. They believe this technique will force a woman to throw herself at their feet. When fantasy becomes reality or they get rejected they proclaim that a woman is stuck up which is far from the truth. To be honest, no sophisticated female wants to be whistle, bark at or grab in an awkward way from a stranger and I do not blame them. I have a daughter, and I expect men to treat my little princess as a human being when she gets older, not an o
This was so refreshing to read. I am one that follows my own format and others should realize that it is okay to do that. Don't feel like you have to be like anyone but yourself. I like the term you used, Clones. So many people are clones and don't even now it. People need to read this and stop being Clones. Live your life with confidence and you will not have to be a follower.
