“The two greatest and worst tragedies in life are to live your life under false identity and to live with and amongst people who do not know who they are.”

According to Fakude, when he wrote the book he had everyone from teenagers to adults in mind. “In each and every day of our lives, we come across things and situations that frustrate us and make us lose focus of where we are going. They also make us think our lives will end where we are at the moment.”
Fakude said the book is aimed in assisting the reader to start a self-discovery process.
“People who have lost their identity are misplaced. They live a purposeless life and achieve less than what God has planned for them. The key is to understand why you are on Earth.”

He said chapter two is his favourite. “It discusses calling and profession. It differentiates between work and a job. It explains the difference between income and salary. We do not depend on our salaries to live, but we depend on income.”
He said his dream is to reach every soul. “I want to change people’s lives.”
This is not Fakude’s first book; he wrote Pain is Not Permanent in 2020.
