Don’t Get Lost in the World. Find Yourself!

In a time where social media dominates so much of our attention, it’s easy to lose sight of who we truly are. We get caught up in endless scrolling, measuring our worth by likes and comments, and chasing trends that leave us feeling empty. But remember, the world’s noise doesn’t define you—you define yourself.

It’s time to unplug from distractions and reconnect with your authentic self. Take this as a call to pause, reflect, and focus on what truly matters: your personal growth and well-being.

Focus on What Matters Most

When you shift your attention inward, you create space for growth, clarity, and purpose. Social media can be an incredible tool, but it should never replace the work of finding and building yourself.

Here are five empowering affirmations from Zikki Munyao's YouTube channel to guide you toward self-discovery:

  1. "Your past is not your prison."
    Don't let your mistakes or challenges define you. Each day is a fresh opportunity to write a new chapter in your life.

  2. "Find joy in every moment."
    Instead of seeking happiness from external sources, look within. Joy exists in the little things when you choose to embrace gratitude.

  3. "You are stronger than you think."
    The challenges of life are tough, but you have an inner strength that grows every time you rise above adversity.

  4. "Believe in your vision."
    The world may doubt you, but your vision is yours to pursue. Stay true to your dreams, even when the journey gets tough.

  5. "Change begins with you."
    If you want to make a difference in the world, start with yourself. Growth is contagious—let it begin with your actions.

Find Inspiration in Art

Art has a way of reconnecting us to our core. At Munyao.art, we celebrate individuality and the beauty of authentic expression. Each piece tells a story and reminds us that greatness comes from embracing who we are.

For instance, The GOAT artwork highlights the idea of being the greatest by simply living your unique life. As my son Remy once shared in an Iced Cacti video, even legends like Michael Jordan and LeBron James excelled by staying true to their paths. We can learn from them that our authenticity is what makes us remarkable.

The Hidden Selfie to the Trillion Dollar Elephant Iced Cacti YT Video

The moment rzmy took this selfie mid-video

In the world of art, sometimes the most captivating moments happen behind the scenes, in a flash, without any planning. While recording the Trillion Dollar Elephant video for Iced Cacti, something special was captured. The moment you see here is a selfie that my son, RZMY, snapped in the middle of filming. It’s raw, unfiltered, and caught the two of us vibing, mid-creative flow, with the Trillion Dollar Elephant standing powerfully behind us.

This photo represents more than just a behind-the-scenes look. It gives you a glimpse into the energy and connection we share while creating these projects. You’ll see this very moment unfold in the video itself, but here’s a little challenge for you: Can you spot this exact moment in the video? Maybe you’ll catch the subtle expressions we had before or after this freeze-frame, or even recognize a connection between Trillion Dollar Elephant and my earlier piece, Empowered.

Both pieces, in their own way, represent different sides of the same coin. I leave it to you, the audience, to decide—are these two paintings really about the same individual? After watching, I’d love to hear what you think. Head over to Iced Cacti on YouTube, find this moment, and let me know—do Trillion Dollar Elephant and Empowered speak to you in the same way?

Explore the full video and the meaning behind the art—if you know me, maybe you’ll catch something familiar. And don’t forget to share your thoughts!
