Akwaaba! {“welcome” in the Ghanaian language of Twi (pronounced “tree”)}
I have embarked upon a new season of my life that has you at the essence and core of its function. I recently started Passion and Purpose, LLC. This company is designed to see people reach their true potential and to find that uniqueness to change and impact the world around us. The mission of this company is to inspire people to reach their true potential and uncover their God given uniqueness through the power of motivational speaking and mentorship. I enjoy motivating people and watching them take charge of their lives, removing all mental barriers and living a life of true passion and purpose.
I am doing this because I have witnessed on numerous occasion the awesome transformation and impact one can have when they are confident in that which they possess. God has given each of you a “fingerprint”, a talent, and/or a gift that can be used and there is no one that can do what you can do best. Think about it. There are over 6 billion people on this planet and each person has a unique purpose to fulfill. How often do we ignore that which we are passionate about to seek what seems to be a normal, ordinary path? You can be original, nonconforming, and open to the creative ability that God has given you. He did not make us all the same, nor did he give us all the same abilities. Why do we feel that we must follow the same path? Is it familiarity, comfort, tradition? Take the limits off of your life and release yourself to come into your potential.
I recently had the opportunity to see the Broadway play “The Lion King”. The character that touched me the most was Raifiki, which means “friend” in Swahili. This character touched me because of the piercing ability of song and musical singing talent that she possessed.
While she was singing I felt this immense inspiration come over me. I turned to my mother and said “She tapped into her passion and purpose”. While singing she motivated me and inspired me because no one else could sing or hold a note the way she did. She was simply marvelous and it is all because she found that gift, that ability that God gave her and capitalized off of it. You have that same ability with your gift. Once you tap into your uniqueness, your niche’, the world around you will never be the same.
Love you all, and remember that you have it in you. See it’s right there! Right there! Now obtain it!
