Review:
When reading
Silent Strength, a book that inspires as well as motivates, make sure you sit
in the silence of a room, reflect with an open heart and mind, while reading
it. It transforms the person in you through its meaningful messages.
There is so much
wisdom and courage outlined in this reflective narration.
Here are some
notable statements, from the award-winning author and life coach, Monica Kunzekweguta
that created an impact in me:
-
On Goal Setting and Planning
Often,
we just write down our goal and forget about them altogether. We do not focus
on them at all, in that, we focus on our problems and they steal our valuable
time, then, we end up failing to create the life we want.
-
Her thoughts on an Author’s voice
It
is important to me that each author’s voice is respected. It is vital to allow
that because it is their story, their essence that makes them unique and
valuable.
-
Her words to inspire
*
Never underestimate the power to recreate life. You have something of value to
give.
*
My passion is to speak life into people’s dream – no experience is ever lost!
*
You attract more of what you focus on. Fear was my demise.
*
Your contribution is never too little, it might be the one thing that will
change someone’s life.
What happens when
you delve into the message this book outlines, is that you come off reading
Monica Kunzekweguta’s book of life, emboldened, humbled, with an added
confidence to take charge of your life through her experiences.
It is a book that
you need to read, in order to benefit from the nuggets of wisdom gained through
experience, of a woman who took her community by storm, by standing up,
rebelling even, for what she believes in!
Her courage
speaks volumes.
Monica
Kunzekweguta, turned her trials into a learning experience, healing from past
wounds in the process, and best of all, she has embarked on sharing those
experiences with others who might be in the same predicament.
As she has
healed, so she heals through her words of encouragement, and methods of
motivation. Her Take-Away notes are truly inspiring and a must read!
From the
best-selling author who has mastered her “Vision Quest” based on a vision she
had in 2007, and made it her way of life, Monica’s noble intention, which is
aptly outlined in Silent Strength, is to enroll others, and encourage them to
seek their destiny and life’s purpose.
I would recommend
her book, Silent Strength, as a voice of reason, a push in the right direction
towards a positive change in overcoming the many difficulties in life.
Monica had the
courage to change her course of life. She chose to seek freedom from a
repressed community. Make it an inspiration towards changing your own.
Taken from
Monica’s Silent Strength is a quote of Mother Teresa’s: Reach High, for stars, are hidden in your soul. Dream deep for every
dream precedes the goal.
