How We Build Cities of Refuge

The Seed Has Everything It Needs To Grow

The creative success and socio-economic well being of the people of Fizi is the single goal of Makimbilio. That every individual and the communities they collectively build become living models of a successful, trans-generational growth, health and happiness in its most vibrant and beautiful capacity is our guiding vision. To fulfill that vision, we provide a simple but powerful,program that takes anyone and everyone one step at a time, one step after another, learning to build success in every effort and leveraging every moment into a better future.

When diagrammed, that process looks like this. It doesn't matter what level of development a person is at when thing begin. It only matters that they begin. Once they do, they enter on the Path of Makimbilio and each step they take is like a brick on a golden road. Each effort paves a pathway of improvement that helps each moment be better than the last.

This is not a particularly easy road. It is one  of struggle and growth, effort and exertion but with that effort, improvement naturally unfolds. Each individual is a seed that has everything required to become a resilient, creative being who can face struggle with competence and take any adversity they meet and turn it into something better than when they met it.

The road to Makimbilio has two lanes, two principle tracks of study and development. The central track is the study and practice of self mastery.

On this track, the student learns the core elements of their creative being and how to develop a personal habit of success. This habit of success then, can influence every thing they do, turning every opportunity or struggle in their life into an opportunity for growth and improvement.

The second track on the path of Makimbilio is learning valuable, marketable skills, skills that can provide a means of economic success and prosperity, skills that are useful to other in the community, skills that can lead to a successful life.

When the student takes what they learn in their practice of self-mastery and applies it on a daily basis to their practice of the skills they are developing, they simply get better over time. They not only get better over time, they get better at the act of getting better. They become a wheel of improvement rolling down the path to Makimbilio.

Because the path to Makimbilio raises the masterful skill of everyone who walks it, every one who walks it weaves with others a strong social fabric of creatively masterful individuals. They weave a common wealth of creative insight and skill born of their growing wisdom, skill and prosperity. Because this growth is so universal amongst the people, it naturally expands its influence to others and over time, generation after generation establish a lasting culture of creative beings, living at their fullest and demonstrating to the world what it is to create a heaven from the earth they walk on.

This is the vision of Makimbilio. It is our experiment. It is the art we bring to Fizi. We bring it to discover how beautiful Fizi can become.
