Kibler Park author Osswell Ngubane (50) published his new book, The Power of Purpose, in 2019.
He said the idea to write this motivational and spiritual book came about in 2011 where there was always a voice in his head that continued to urge him to write a book.
“I finally wrote the book in 2017. Being a speaker and facilitator, I was working for this big company and I was given a task to do their communication strategy. I was given seven months to complete it.
“While I was doing the vision of the company, I asked myself what is the vision of each employee. I found out that most of them didn’t have their individual vision,” he said.
That’s when the voice came back that he should write the book and communicate the vision and the purpose of mankind.
Although he regrets not writing the book in 2011, Osswell persevered and once he started it took him six months.
“I was once in that situation of not knowing my own vision, but I’m out of it.
“I’m now connected to the world via this book. When people read the book, it confirms that it wasn’t just my problem to not have a vision. Many people do not have a vision for their lives.
“We all need to understand our purpose and ask some very harsh questions: who I am, where do I come from, why am I here, where are we going to and so forth.
“By connecting to God, the unlimited one, I became unlimited myself. We need to connect to the higher power to ultimately find our purpose and have a clear vision of our well-being,” explained Osswell.
He said this is a must-have book for every individual and it can be found in Saliwa Mogale Bookstore in Southgate Mall, Bookshop in Fourways Mall, Lifestyle Books in Maponya Mall, Amazon and other malls in Gauteng.
