Happy Monday everyone! As we say goodbye to 2012 let's take a moment to reflect on the lessons (good and bad) we've learned from 2012. Going forward we should have some strategies in place that will help us to not make the same mistakes in 2013. May God bless you all and as a little gift to take you into the New Year here's a motivational message from Eric Thomas:

Smash or Trash: 12/11/12
Unsigned Greats presents....
SMASH or
TRASH
-----------------------------------------------
So many people hit me off
with their projects I thought it would only be fair to share
their material and have it critiqued by my readers. My only
warning is there may or may not be some extremely wack stuff
here, but on the other hand you might come across the next
big thing, so be patient and fair. After you check things
out, let me know what you think. Leave a comment below, or
send me a tweet letting me know if the project is a
smash or if it's trash.
Then go let the artist know and tell them Big Jye sent ya!
The whole point is to give the artists some feedback on their
work. Let's go!

Think Tank Tuesdays: Wayward Children...Who's To Blame?
Who's to blame for today's youth? They're disrespectful, out of control, stubborn, and to put it frankly a disgrace. Of course those aren't accurate descriptions of all of today's youth but is a segment in society who live up to that description. So who's fault is it? Can we blame music videos, ultra violence movies, music that glorifies sex, drugs, and violence? Or is it solely the fault of parents? Check out the video below:
My theory is the finger can be pointed in many directions, but not as the sole cause of this problem. We can point the finger at the government because when it stepped into the family circle and chipped away at a parent's authority to discipline (not to be confused with abuse) their children, things started to fall apart. We can definitely point the finger at music videos with scantly dressed women and men portraying a lifestyle that promotes, promiscuity, drug culture and violence as a way of life while they dictate to impressionable minds that you can't be anything if you don't have an abundance of money. We can surely point the fingers at the parents who have failed their children miserably either by abandonment or raising them improperly. While all play some part in this complex problem I don't think any one issue is the sole reason why our youth have gone astray. Just look at this story of a young African boy who didn't allow poverty to keep him down.

Sentenced To 12 Years For Self Defense
Can you imagine being jumped by 7 or 8 guys who are yelling racial slurs at you, getting kicked and beaten while you're on the ground and then when the whole fiasco is over YOU have to spend 12 years behind bars?
Pretty crazy right? Well check out this story about a brother who despite what the facts of the story are, has been locked up for quite some time.
[While Brandon helped his employer move furniture at her house in Jackson, N.J., he allegedly noticed that a fight had broken out at a party across the street. After walking toward the altercation to investigate the melee, one of the individuals involved, who is said to have been visibly intoxicated along with the raucous group, began fighting with him.
According to Gloria, Brandon quickly shut the aggressor down and attempted to return to the house he came from.
But that would be just the beginning.
The aggressor — now allegedly armed with 7 to 8 other White males in tow — followed Brandon and then reportedly began stomping and kicking him while yelling, “Kill the n*gger!”
According to Gloria, Brandon pulled out his 3-inch work pocket knife in self-defense, forcing the group back, but it was the homeowner’s call to police that would finally force the motley group to stand down.
On the police report, even though the officer would list the incident as a “racial offense” and Brandon would sustain injuries to the back of his head and knees and even had a fingernail bitten off, he would later be the only one charged with aggravated assault and illegal weapons possession.] source: newsone.com
