As a Leadership Coach, I've been had
several deep conversations with people who were really depressed, hopeless and
helpless during my consultancy sessions. Most of them had actually given up on
life before our meeting and were only a minute breathe away from ending their
own lives.
Their problems could be summarized
in the usual category of being financial, emotional, educational, and
psychological. Before I give them solutions to their problems, I usually ask
them these two questions:
(1). What have you been living for?
(2). What do you want to still live
for?
On countless occasions I see them
going through sober reflections, and then into critical thinking. Perhaps
they've never thought about life in my perspectives.
As it's often said: "Life will
not give you what you deserve, but what you make a demand for."
I remember precisely in 2012 when I published my
first book: 'A Difference Maker'. Prior to then, it was as though I wouldn't
achieve my dream of being an author. I really wanted to make a positive
difference in the lives of people. I wanted to give hope to the hopeless; help
to the helpless; and faith to faithless. I wanted people to become difference
makers in their spheres of influence.
But I had a huge challenge! Yes, I
did
I didn't have the finance for the
book publishing. But one thing kept me fighting on and today I'm still pushing
on because of it. That's PURPOSE!
Purpose drove me into the street to
seek financing for my book. Purpose keeps me awake at night everyday seeking
ways to better myself. Purpose pushes me into building relationships that will
propel for the journey. Purpose wakes me up from my sleep to fight to make every
day count. Purpose is my personality, brand and influence.
I really want people to become
better in life. That's what I've been living for and what I'm still living for.
I speak with people every day and make efforts to make them succeed. That's the
passion that gave birth to my human-capital development company InspireForte
Solutions. We just want to keep changing lives and building people as our
slogan reads.
Everyone was created for and with a
purpose!
Friends, as you journey through life
ask yourself those questions again and surely, you'll find answers. But if you
don't you can seek our consultancy service and be assured, you'll find THE REAL
YOU that your world NEEDS to emerge.
Cheers!
