Ignite

Every second, every minute, every hour of the day, different thoughts run through our minds ranging from good to bad, important to irrelevant and exciting to disturbing. Nonetheless, there are always predominant thoughts that consciously or unconsciously drive us through our life. Our daily routine is made up of impulsive or predetermined thoughts, but it is inevitable that our thoughts determine the outcome of our lives. The bibles state in (Proverbs 23: 7a) For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he. This implies that our lives, actions, decisions, experiences and choices are largely a projection of our thoughts and this makes up who we are. 

Our thoughts are as important as the food we eat, the water we drink and even the air we breathe. This book is a charge to kindle the right thoughts in your heart. When I was younger, I found it very difficult to focus on the positives in my life. It appeared that I was determined to always think about the wrong things that ultimately pulled me down and made me feel depressed and useless. At a point in my life when I felt I was at my lowest ebb, I found Christ and he placed the right set of people in my life that helped me through the journey of rediscovering myself. During this process, I discovered that the problems I had were largely influenced by my thoughts. At the time, I was not thinking about the right things and I quickly changed as I stayed faithful to the process. Hence, putting this book together became a massive personal goal because I have realized how important it is to ignite the right mindset. 

This book is a compilation of daily articles that God laid in my heart to share with people. I have written on subjects that people are not necessarily attuned to, but these things are ultimately what makeup who we are, our perception towards the environment and the kind of person people perceive us to be. In each chapter, I have shared different topics that I find crucial to existence. Myles Munroe said, Your existence is evidence that this generation needs something that your life contains. You are that creation that can meet God’s desired results. How then do you come into this reality? It is by growth, and growth comes through a balanced diet. I have tried achieving that in this book, and I am optimistic that your post-reading experience will be immensely worthwhile.

This book is a compilation of words that I am sure will charge you and make you see the need to do things differently. It is also provided to help you develop the right attitude towards friendship, vision, leadership, character, focus, determination and most importantly purpose, because you can only discover your potentials, gifts and purpose by following through and having the right measure of knowledge about consistency, discipline and balancing spiritual life with academics.

Flipping through the pages of this book meticulously will ignite in you the hunger for success and also equip you with requisite life-long principles. 

Dear reader, my desire is for you to develop the right attitude towards life and become a better version of yourself while harnessing your strengths, passion and purpose. And develop the right skills so you can be who God wants you to be. This book is an effort to help you grow and develop yourself so you have the right tools that will enable you to have the best chance of becoming the person you were created to be. 

I am quite confident that at the end of a careful perusal of this book, you will be re-trained, re-ignited and re-positioned. And I hope you will be blessed much more than I was during the course of writing this book. Shalom!!!
