Introduction to Connecting the Dots

This book, connecting the dots – how to make sense of your life, purpose and vision is an exquisite material for great minds. The title was rather spontaneous. I was having a conversation with someone, and it just came. Hearing the title, myself, it didn’t make sense at first, because I had already drafted many supposed titles, I thought I would use. But when I mulled over it, I knew that was it! And when I thought about the impact the book would have on people’s lives, I wouldn’t hesitate to get the knowledge and ideas across.

This book – connecting the dots would help you realize a lot of things that weren’t making sense to you in your life before. You will get insights and understanding of what is going on in your life. Maybe you’ve been going through life, and you’ve been wondering what exactly is going on. Or maybe it has been difficult for you to live life and enjoy it on your own terms, this book will give you ideas on how to answer those questions.

You will find secrets that are not hidden, though many people don’t see them. You will begin to realize that you’ve got so many more treasures than you’ve ever known, that you have potentials and abilities that are yet to be unleashed, and many things that you thought you could not do before will become way easier for you, thanks to the shift in your mind. And by the time you are done with this book, your perspectives and orientation would have also changed vis-à-vis your life, purpose and vision. You will realize that though you went through difficulties and turbulent times, they were meant to make you stronger and better in achieving your goals and attaining a new height of success.

I came from a humble background. My family was poor. And though I grew up in that poor environment, my mind was not poor. I was always interested in things that enrich the mind and add value to people. While I was growing up, I had different challenges. But those challenges have helped me to become who I am today. They have shaped me to have better orientation about life and people.

Connecting the dots for me would be how those things I’ve gone through in life have made sense to me; how the difficulties and challenges I’ve been through have made me to be a better and stronger person I am today. And how I’ve gained more from life and people.

Connecting the dots for me would also mean appreciating where I am today. I remember March this year when I was a special guest at the Capitol Hill building Washington DC, seated side by side with 20 great women of excellence, who were honored for their service to the State at the Annual International Women’s Day Celebration. This invitation was huge for me because the invitation came from the least expected quarter. No member of my family has gotten such invitation. And even as I look forward to where I’m going, it is a great reassurance of what is possible, valuing what I have, while I work towards what I want.

Connecting the dots is a book that I believe strongly would open your eyes to fresh ideas. It would make you understand – how to break free from every limiting belief and impostor syndrome that are holding you back and hindering your progress, how to deal with all forms of fears and uncertainties, how to make positive change in your life against all odds, how to set goals and achieve them, how to convert all your weaknesses into strengths and make the best of what you have, how to discover your purpose and fulfill it, how to convert your problems and delays into progress and solutions, and how to have a long-lasting happiness and fulfillment in life.

This book is packed with tremendous ideas. I promise you it will worth your time, and you will come back with great results.

So, sit back and relax, and enjoy the read. I see a BOLD NEW YOU on the RISE. Cheers!

With love,
