Perspective
As human beings it's in our nature to have expectations and a picture of the life and the people we want to have in our life. Because of those expectations and that picture we have, our emotions and feelings easily deceive us when we meet someone or something close to what we want. We tend to compromise and lose parts of ourselves in order to keep what we thought we deserve or at least prayed for.- Monalisa Mariah Liabunya

For months, he is an outlaw, the police and secret services hunting him in vain, living under new identities and separated from his young family. His mission? To set up armed resistance to apartheid, and in doing so change the course of history.

Big Girl Goals Guide
The Mindset of a Successful Student
It is clear that everyone wants to succeed; no one wants to fail, and no one wants to live a low-class life. Every student wants good grades; nobody wants to fail exams. Unfortunately, this isn't always the case. Why is failure more common than success, yet no one wishes to fail? Why is there a mismatch between what we want from life and what we get?
Inspired by the urge to answer the above questions, I decided to write this book with the hope that by addressing them, I would assist individuals aspiring for growth, those who are stuck at one point without noticeable progress, and highly ambitious people looking for guidance on where to direct their energy.
Though the book is written with students at the heart of it, it will open the eyes of everyone who flips through the pages. I share a deep conviction that great success is reserved to those who infinitely seek knowledge and abide by the principles of success. Highly accomplished men and women are therefore great students of life.
Join me on an engaging journey towards an eye opening knowledge expedition.

Nawiri: How To Prosper God’s Way
I dream of a financially powerful movement of believers: debt-free and wealthy- ravenously spending on the kingdom. Mighty takers, advancing and conquering territories, turning them into the Kingdoms of our God. That's why I wrote this book back in 2011- to inspire and arm you!
It all began in 2007 as a personal search in the scripture for answers as I could not reconcile the gap between what the Bible says and my financial situation then; I was stuck and drowning in debt. Seventeen years later, God has blessed me beyond measure- I am grateful.
So, I dared to publish and share with you these secret truths from a personal journal because I care. I want to help you prosper, too. And so does God.
The book, which comes in a fresh revelation of God's word, is crafted as a deeply-reflective and result-oriented educational program to do just that- help you prosper. It reveals how-to secret truths and practical wisdom that, applied, can set you on a turnaround path to true financial freedom. The book is perfect for individual and small-group study. Turn the page and join me on a march to financial freedom!
90 Days of Courage by James Njuguna
Each day, life presents to us decisions and tasks that require courage to execute. Sometimes we don’t notice that at the end of the day, we either lost or won based on our ability to be brave. Most of us think of courage as the ability to run into a burning building to save a child who is trapped, volunteering to do missionary work in remote and dangerous places, joining the army etc. These are certainly acts of courage, but that’s not all that defines courage. Sometimes courage is being able to say no to a friend or a relationship, saying yes to a job offer, joining a rehabilitation program because you want to heal from a certain addiction, enrolling for a certain course, admitting that you are not okay, and you need help, asking for forgiveness etc. Even these small steps that almost always go unnoticed matter!
