Foreword
Living the Purpose Inspired Life is a book written for our time. With unique ideas that have the power to change the quality of your life. In this book, Patrick has written about the fine points and marks that define the silhouette and atmosphere of a purposeful life. When he asked me to read and write the foreword of this book, I thought it might be just another exercise, how wrong was I. In reading this book, I saw a close affinity and the correlation between the techniques of words and living a life driven by purpose.
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 times, events, and circumstances into our lives. That can fully expose us to the highest level of the reason of existence of man. Life is pointless without identifying and implementing those punctuation points in our life.
Man is searching for the meaning of life. Looking for those things that make life worth living. Asking the reason and purpose of creation. Man seeks to know and define his purpose in life. Of which Patrick systematically dealt with, combining patterns, deep passion, uniqueness, and knowledge, using inputs from creation, sciences, and the humanities to create a masterpiece. Reading this book is a must for all that seek to find the meaning of life and live a life driven by purpose.
It is written to shows the right way, in using and maximizing the inbuilt potential within us. With the combined twin of identity and life purpose, the common thread that connects the structure of this book, carefully crafted to meet the ultimate expectation of the reader.
With wholeheartedness, I recommend this book to everyone in this present generation and those that will follow, a book loaded with innovations and much wise insight on how to know your life purpose and live with ultimate fulfillment. The definitive purpose of life is to find fulfillment and happiness by creating an identity with a clear purpose.

A Word from the Author
Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.
Oscar Wilde
I ran into this quote half-way through writing this book. I realize I could relate to it more than anything else. And with what started as an investigative writing on the dismal state of affairs of mankind in history. I ended up unexpectedly at a crossroad. My thoughts turned into the world in which we live today. Seeing it is filled with excitement and many excellent possibilities. Even the study of philosophy and religion which can help us create a system of ethical value can also set us up in with individual beliefs that run contrary to reality. And amid the many goings and comings, man is searching for meaning and purpose. With thoughts that are an untested opinion with a credibility problem. Some even have the hope that knew no bound and has flourished, with the belief that somehow we could discover what lies beyond.
Asking oneself this question is justified if progress is to be made in understanding the big picture that orders the universe. A generation comes and a generation goes, but observe a person whose life is driven by purpose. It is comparable to a diadem of the polished diamond set on the head of a queen. Shinning with the quality that is desired in our present age of disillusionment. But that is not all. It is also a choice as well as a process that can be learned, cultivated and perfected. If human beings are to be exposed to the right caliber of information and instruction.
In the absence of purpose, life is meaningless and very terminal. Hopelessly hopeless, which could explain why some find fulfillment in life and others disappointments. For this reason, I have chosen to write my story in a book that can make a difference, penetrating, and very impactful to the reader. Dealing surgically with the formation of identity, and finding the meaning and purpose of life.
The title of this book was also chosen as a tribute to the continuous understanding of a life driven on purpose. To draw attention to the most important aspect of life. As the result of my effort to convey a story that has brought meaning, changed and defined my life. Something I can identify with, having lived, surviving through the testing of the crucible of fire. 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.
Looking back at my life and others around, I discovered that we all have latent gifts, talents, compassion with degrees of sensitivity. Besides, there is a type of uniqueness in each of us, when directed and put to use, can be converted into the driving force designed to bring lasting changes in the society.
My goals and joy are to bring you to the light and share what I have learned from many reliable teachers and mentors along my journey. These are life principles that have made a significant impact on my life. Principles that cannot be neglected, overlooked or even discarded without incurring severe damages to our psyche.
The world is searching for the principle that governs life, without understanding the basic constitution of mankind. Which are the answers to the most important questions of life? A multi-dimensional question everyone must answer, humanist, religionist, and the ignorant, both big and small, rich or poor. Challenging, striking and thought-provoking questions 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 recipe for living the abundant life has placed an impediment right in the path of gaining a true knowledge of the existence of the human race?
Truly a life inspires by purpose is defined by meaning and fulfillment. Thus, we need the absolute guidance of purpose combined with meaning to smolder out the low flames of timidity and doubts that have curtailed the graphical progress of our life. The world is moving fast in the direction that encourages inventions and resourcefulness. Leaving behind the old unworkable models that have stifled humanity. Honestly, to be integrated and flow with the ebbs, we need to know who we are in conjunction with our life purpose.
Also, to move fast forward, there is an urgent need to understand our potentials and direct our efforts and talents in the right direction. But this would require the accurate understanding of the basis of our identity, a uniqueness that can motivate our drive to be visionaries. To balance the important role identity plays in shaping our purpose.
For this reason, the focus of this book is to understand the basic questions of a purpose motivated life. Thus, it is written to help you walk through and answer the questions of life. With contentment fashioned by the instruments of my analytical work. I have scrutinized tons of materials and books on the concepts of identity. I found in them, some answer to most of the important question of all, Who am I?
and "Why am I here? Which is one baffling question that has rattled mankind? And that is the essential theme of this book, written with an in-depth analysis and creative insight. With an innovative approach, loaded to meet the problem of identity common to humanity.
The subject of personal identity and purpose is gaining ground worldwide, with the humanist, psychologist, and philosophers producing and marketing different version of the same subject of who we are as human beings. It should not be taken for granted that your true self can be defined by several elements connected with your personal identity. Relatively your personality does exceed the narrow and confining categories of the psychological and sociological models of self-hood.
These models are the imperfect structure, conforming to the thoughts of the fallible man that cannot portray the essentials that defines you at the core level. But may represent and fit an imaginary person very different from you. A person less substantive than you. In fact, the discovery of your identity does not begin with you, neither by looking within you. Though
