INTRODUCTION

In the words of former U.S President Woodrow Wilson, You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world and to impoverish yourself if you forget the ERRAND.

In your hand this very moment is a book that will change your life forever. You are holding this book either because you are already on your way to destiny or you do not even know how to get started.

The passion behind the writing of this book is born out of the desire to see every man lead an excellent and fulfilling life. At this early stage, I have to quickly tell you that you have A ROLE to play in making this world a better place for you, everyone around and for generations unborn.

In life, you were not created to be dependent neither were you created to be independent- We are all existing to be INTERDEPENDENT and it is the realization of this amazing truth that struck me and brought clarity to me that I have a major purpose and role to play here on earth just like everybody else.

The world is formed to be governed interdependently- You are created to provide a solution that I will have to depend on to survive and flourish, likewise myself, I also exist to provide a solution that you will have depend on to survive and flourish. All men are created to provide solutions and that is the INTERDEPENDENCY of LIFE.

No man is created without at least a solution to provide to the many world’s problems. What do you have to offer the human race? What do you provide that the next man relies on its existence?

You have a purpose on earth that is so very unique to you that no other man can fulfil either born or unborn except YOU.

The Ability of a man will make a life for him. Notice the phrase THE ABILITY, it tells us of the fact that every person on earth has been embedded with a particular and unique ability that will make a difference for him and the world at large. The realization of this THE ABILITY is the first step in the journey to DESTINY REALIZATION.

Purpose expert, Myles Munroe said and I quote When the purpose of a thing is unknown, abuse is inevitable. This doesn’t applies to things only, same goes to men, when the purpose of your life is unknown you ignorantly abuse the reason for life.

There is a purpose for that special gift or ability that you possess. When this purpose is not discovered and pursued, man will continue to pervert the value that life and existence truly possesses. By your GIFT or ABILITY I mean that unique and special one of a kind edge you have over every other man on the planet.

Join me optimistically, as I take you through the journey of discovering your EDGE in life and knowing the real purpose for this special ability of yours.

Those that make true impact in life are those that discovers their edge and passionately use it in fulfilling their destiny.

Wealth or impact?

ABINDE DARE

Before going too far in this book, I have to make you understand that your purpose in life is never just to amass wealth. We live in a world where success is defined by wealth, where fulfillment is explained as riches. Many of our young people out there are only chasing riches hence, they end up doing anything that will make them rich quickly yet living a purposeless life.

Dear Reader, you can amass a lot of wealth through any means whatsoever, but wealth never guarantees fulfillment. The world is unfortunately filled with many rich but unfulfilling people. Do not misunderstand me, it’s really cool to make money, a lot, but is money your driving force? What if money is not in it, would you still give yourself to it?

The secret to discovering your purpose is firstly discovering that thing you will do all day even if you are not paid for it. Wealth should not be your motivator going up in life, because your purpose here on earth is not just about making wealth, it is about making impact, it’s about solving problems, meeting the needs of people in your peculiar way. A lot of people who runs after money and makes it their driving force never get to live a fulfilling life, there is still a part of their soul that hungers for the satisfaction of their true purpose.

‘’The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively."

BOB MARLEY

A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives.

JACKIE ROBINSON

As we look ahead into the next century, leaders will be those who empowers others.

BILL GATES

Wealth and fame are not the real purpose of existence, they are meant to be byproducts of living your true purpose.

Do I mean you shouldn’t make money, shouldn’t make much money? NO, as a matter of fact, people who makes impact in life end up been stupendously rich. Look for how you can passionately make a difference in your community/country, solve problems, impact lives, in these things you will have fulfillment and still end up making good money though it may not be a get-quick rich means but if you will delay your gratification and work tirelessly to make the world a better place, sooner, acquiring wealth will no longer be a problem for you.  

Take a look at the people who made true impact in the world, the likes of Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela, Albert Einstein, Mahatma Gandhi, Karl Max, Charles Darwin, Jesus Christ, Abraham Lincoln, Winston Churchill, William Wilberforce, Mother Teresa, these people who really were pursuing how they can impact the world with their gifts ended up living a fulfilled life and were extremely wealthy, even after their death, their legacy and influence still affect millions. The question you should ask yourself is after my death, what will I be remembered for? Just your wealth or how you impacted millions of people. Would you even be remembered at all?

Bill Gates, one of the richest men on earth lives a life of impact, he pursues impact right from his teenage years, he was after how he can improve the world though a drop-out, Bill Gates created his first computer program while still at high school, later went on to co-found Microsoft in 1977 and by 1993 he was the richest man in the world.

You see when you pursue impact in life, great ideas to improve the lives of people is birthed in you, you are less concerned about riches but about the lives. Bill Gates once said that he never planned or dreamed of becoming the richest man on earth but he only wanted to make life easy for people through his inventions. Bill Gates’ inventions has impacted all most every human being on earth, if you use a PC (Personal Computer) you most likely have Bill Gates to thank for Microsoft, obviously the idea of this invention that is birthed from the desire to make impact is paying more than Bill’s bills.

In 2000, Bill Gates and his wife formed The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation which is the largest charity in the world. One of it aims is to exempt the third world of polio and other deadly diseases. He still makes impact with his wealth. As at the time I wrote this book, Bill Gates net worth is $85.4 billion (USD). It all started with a passion to improve the standard of living of the people.

What is your own driving force? Wealth or Impact?

You may say, don’t worry, I will think about how to impact lives positively when am already as rich as Bill Gates but dear, why don’t you start now? Many are impacting the world positively with their songs some with their technological inventions, some with their services, some with their developmental ideas, with what do you impact the world around you?  There is something resting within you waiting for awakening and
