In this book, Patrick has written down the fine points and marks that accurately describe the silhouette and atmosphere of a purposeful life. When he asked me to read before writing the foreword of this book, I thought it might be just another excuse and exercise, but how wrong was I.

After reading this book, I was highly influenced for therein I saw a close affinity with the correlation between the techniques of words juxtapose with living a life driven by purpose. In addition, he did a wonderful work in mixing the soft touches of identity and purpose as the main ingredients needed to integrate the lines, points, and marks of life and times, events, and circumstances into our lives.

In this book he fully expose the reader to the highest level purpose as the reason of existence of man, since life is pointless without identifying and implementing those punctuation points in our life. Since the age began, man is searching for the meaning of life, looking for those things that make life worth living by asking the reason and purpose of creation as man seeks to know and define his purpose in life.

Moreover, in this book Patrick systematically dealt with all life patterns, combining deep passion, uniqueness, and knowledge, while using inputs from creation, sciences, and the humanities to create a masterpiece. Therefore, reading this book is necessary for all who seek to find the meaning of life and live a life driven by purpose.

It is fully recommended to the reading public since it is written to shows the right way, in using and maximizing the inbuilt potential within us by combining the twin of identity and life purpose, the common thread that connects the structure of this book.

Therefore, with all wholeheartedness, I endorse this unique book to everyone in this present generation and those that will follow. It is a book loaded with innovations and much wise insight on how to know your life purpose and live with ultimate fulfillment since the definitive purpose of life is to find fulfillment and happiness by creating an identity with a clear purpose.

Preface

"Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation."

Oscar Wilde

On the halfway point, I ran into this quote while penning what started as an investigative piece on the dismal state of the worldwide psychological, social and religious interaction of humankind. More than anything else, it spoke to me in a way that provoke my realization in that I could relate to it as a fair description of my experience. Since I have observed the intense state and end result of so many seeking a niche in life. Thus, I was rude awakened unexpectedly at a point where my thoughts turned into the circle of the habitable world in which we live today with such excitement in beholding the excellent possibilities in existence.

Then I realized amid the many goings and comings that humankind is still far from reaching the meaning and purpose of life after passing so many centuries since our thoughts are still filled with untested opinion having a credibility problem. While some are still hopeful having the idea that somehow humankind could discover the purpose and identity of what lies beyond.

It is true if an individual keep asking the same question while remaining unwavering he can reach the understanding of the big picture that orders the universe. Just as the study of philosophy and religion attest to the these undeniable facts of which can help us create a system of ethical value that can set us up in life contrary to the individual beliefs that opposes reality.

Many generations has come and many more generation has gone, but observe a person whose life is driven by a passionate purpose, it is comparable to a diadem of the polished diamond set on the head of a queen. So the knowledge of purpose and identity ever shinning with the quality that is desired in our present age of disillusionment. Therefore, learn wisdom and purpose.

Therefore, knowing purpose and identity is a choice, as well as a process that can be learned, cultivated and perfected, if human beings accepts wholeheartedly exposure to the right caliber of information and instruction. Nevertheless, life is meaningless and very terminal in the absence of purpose, even hopelessly hopeless, which could explain why some find fulfillment in life and others disappointments.

For this reason, I have chosen to write on the means of understanding purpose in a book that can make a difference, with penetrating, and very impactful guides to the reader while dealing surgically with the formation of identity, and finding the meaning and purpose of life. That is why the title of this book was also chosen to draw attention to the most important aspect of life in relation to the understanding of a life driven on purpose.

For a long time, I was asking the right question of why, with what and how is it possible to live with meaning in this age of perplexity. As the result, I intensified my effort to convey in a story that has the means to bring meaning, changes and definition to life. Something I can identify with, having lived, surviving through the testing of the crucible of fire.

Though looking back at my life and others around, I discovered that we all have latent gifts, talents, compassion with degrees of sensitivity that could be harnessed. Besides, there is a type of uniqueness, talents and gifts in each of us that could be directed, used, and converted into the driving force designed to bring lasting changes in the society.

However, my goals and joy remains to bring you to the light of purpose and share what I have learned from many reliable teachers and mentors along my journey. These are the life principles that have made a significant impact on my life. Even the principles that cannot be neglected overlooked or even discarded without incurring severe damages to our psyche.

Today the world is searching for the principle that governs life, without understanding the basic constitution of humankind. It is glaring that we cannot answers the most important questions of life; including the multi-dimensional question, everyone must answer one way or the other. Even the questions the humanist, religionist, and the ignorant, both big and small, rich or poor find challenging, striking and thought provoking that can alter the boundaries and the reality of our daily life.

Who am I?, What is my purpose in life?, Am I special? are questions most people struggle with all their life, coming nowhere near to a full comprehension of the issues, because of the intractable nature of the question. Out of desperation, many are seeking answers from the motions of the stars, and self-help specialist whose only credentials and recipe for living the abundant life has placed an impediment right on our the path of gaining the true knowledge of the existence of the human race?

Truly when a life is inspired by purpose, then it is defined by meaning and fulfillment. That is why we need the absolute guidance of purpose combined with meaning to chart a new course of life. Without which the low flames of timidity and doubts could eventually curtailed the graphical progress of our life. Since the world is moving, fast in the direction that encourage inventions and resourcefulness while leaving behind the old unworkable models that have stifled humanity.

Honestly, to be integrated and flow with the true ebbs of life, we need to know who we are in conjunction with our life purpose. In addition, to move fast forward, there is an urgent need to understand our potentials and direct our efforts and talents in the right direction. Nevertheless, this would require the accurate understanding of the basis of our identity, a uniqueness that can motivate our drive to be visionaries while balancing the important role identity plays in shaping our purpose. For this reason, the focus of this book is to
