What was it, I hear you ask? I had no purpose and so I pondered and pondered then I realised that I received a gift from a very close friend at the airport before I travelled, a book! Yes, joy comes in the morning friends, in those kind of times a book saved my day or should I say my months. Don’t you worry I’ll share the title soon. And so I kept reading and reading and could not put the book down, it led me to read the journey of Nehemiah in the Bible and I began to see similarities with my story. I could relate to Nehemiah’s journey because he had a zeal for something he had not been able to accomplish and he had to go on a journey to achieve his purpose. I won’t spoil it for you, pick up the Bible and see it for yourself, you’ll learn a nugget or two. Suddenly, I began to write down my vision and made it plain as Habakkuk 2:2 advises. My vision was written, along came a purpose and with the purpose came some goals. My vision is to equip young people to birth their visions using God as their source of inspiration’. By this time, I understood what I wanted to do with my life however, how was I going to achieve it? Well, the first step was to draft a purpose statement to unpack my purpose and bring it to life, the next step was to set goals to support my vision with financial aspirations, business goals, investment goals such as investing in myself by joining an academy to develop myself and to meet like-minded people as well as setting some personal goals such as family and health goals. I then created a vision board and as the saying goes, a picture paints a thousand words. Needless to say from doing this I authored my first book this summer entitled ‘Elevate Your Essay Writing Skills’ to help young people with written communication skills while running workshops to support schools and organisations with their students and young professionals and I am currently planning a conference to equip young people with the resources to birth their visions.
