    to work and all the challenges he faced in the corporate environment. There are so
    many more interesting and dramatic events in Dumile Dlakiyas life that occur over the
    course of his biography. One of these scenes is during his time as a young man who
    just started working, we get to see his character when things do not go his way and
    he had to fi ght for what he believed was right for him when he was staying in a house
    in Saldahna Bay with other students. We get to know the author in his space as we
    get introduced to his wife, the kids and what challenges the young man had to face
    during his marriage life. The author makes decisions that affect his marriage and we
    get to see how he took advantage of the changes in his life. Through all the challenges
    in the authors life, he never gave up on his dreams and one of those dreams was to
    publish a book about his life and he fi nally achieves his dream. He has gone under a
    transformation from a mischievous young boy, intelligent young man and by the end of
    the book he has gained so much intelligence that he is determined to write and make
    his mark on the world.
