    About this ebook

    I am an ambitious, energetic, determined young woman with dreams to be a success in life. As life proceeds, I grow to understand and see that success is a broad term and has a varied definition from one person to the other. The books primary focus is on how life events transpire regardless of my plans, the significant philosophies and influences I have accumulated and learned in my journey as young woman. In the period of my pursuits to achieve, I get to realise lifes astonishing outcome. That life does not always go according to plan and the significance of remaining optimistic and not forfeiting in challenging times. It also touches on moral values and principles I have been taught growing up. I scale personal beliefs with societys beliefs and expectations on the meaning and measures of success to an average eye of the youth. In addition to the concept, I want to contribute to the youth society and older society an optional way of perception and thinking. I want to inspire and encourage people to believe in their dreams and be objective oriented, regardless of the obstacles encountered. Be able to give people awareness to appreciate simple things in life, although you and we are pursuing our dreams and objectives. Understand the true meaning of success, though definition of success varies from each person. It may be spiritual, financial, material, or psychological success). Introduce a new way of thinking and see the best in every situation encountered . . .

      The Journey of Life - Kele Senkhane

      DO WE GET TO ACHIEVE CONTENTMENT?

      What is it that ever provides absolute contentment? Social believes proclaims financial acquisition and freedom brings contentment. I frequently quest for it from diverse sources of life, merely to discover a brutal and unbearable truth. It is something that is abstract and priceless. I believe I possess and regularly acquaint myself with financial, moral and spiritual consciousness. I also get to discover personal standards and values are often being strayed and compromised to acquire financial freedom.

      Affection and admiration towards possession for optimum materialistic tangibles, is what I have. Due to human nature, I admire to have the luxurious car, town house on the hill with glass wall and elevator inside (I know, you probably saying to yourself, elevator in your glass house?;)However, we all want the same things, we want to be loved and we aspire to attain the best in our lives. I admire to have clothes of the highest quality, design, trend and class. I admire to have a partner whom I will share my dreams and desires with. A partner that aids and offer support in everything I engage in. I admire to have a family one day. I admire to be successful in all my involvements and life endeavors. I fundamentally wish to make it and working towards attaining established objectives and to be successful.

      Life on the other hand, does not entirely correspond to plans and anticipated outcomes as we think. Life has no guarantees. Life is simple. According to my experiences, life contains one certainty that is uncertainty. It is perplex at times to uncover a vivid and comprehended meaning of what life is. Perception and philosophy towards the meaning of life varies from each and every one of us. The truthful knowledge and understanding of life is known by the Supreme Being. Life is an absolute repetition. Whatever phenomenon that is current, it’s definitely not extraordinary or foreign. Life is learning from encountered experiences. Life has unexplainable fluctuations. I personally reckon life is just to be. In life if you are driven by money to be content, then you are chasing the wind.

      I spend time of my life laboring, working and what do I have to show for it? Generations come and go but the world does not change. What happened before will happen again. I discovered that even if I owned more riches than anyone else, I realized it would not mean anything. People work hard to succeed because of the envy of others. It is useless because even if you achieve, you still won’t be content. It’s better to have only a little with a piece of mind, than to spend time chasing wind.

      Growing up I have come to realize people always posses a Perception the grass is always greener on the other side. When you on the outside and looking in, everything looks attractive, however when you step closer, the picture has a complete astray sight to what you have imagined. Elaborating further on the above mentioned phrase, you would think we are absolutely content with ourselves, with what we have, with where we are, with who we are, merely to uncover entirely the opposite, we are faced by misery. After my High School period, I decided to be an academic and empower myself with academic knowledge, however the rationale behind this resolution was to have the means to pursue material success as our generation is constantly exposed to society pressures and expectations where accomplishments are entirely scaled by the kind of car, residence or clothing one acquires.

      The lack of elements that defines and flags out what success Is! in our daily lives usually connotes and implies failure; you also need to keep in mind that people have varied definition of success. In our days, most of the times, not to be perceived as a failure, normally people tend to be subjected to society pressures and engage in activities forcing them to meet demands of society. It is interesting how distance creates an illusion. An illusion in a later stage gives true reality once you approach events of life with profound and mature perception. It comes with believe that everyday we are being misguided. Once there is lack of a firm and proper foundation of guidance from the beginning of our actions and in whatever we do, we will remain miserable.

      People spend their entire life for financial pursuits and life is completely natural. Money is vastly necessary ! Money unlocks abundance of alternatives and gives liberty from poverty. Money is resourceful but also equivalently dangerous. We get to witness people who are rich and reckon money brings ultimate joy. Permit yourselves to take time and perceive them, you will get to encounter an unexpected outcome. That the more money one acquires the less peace acquired. The world we live in contributed and managed to corrupt our thinking process. There are human tendencies of competing with one another, in the latter we fail to realize competition should be with ourselves. We need to live our own lives, be authentic and not be a duplicate of the next person.

      I came to realize, an individual who engages in this kind of competiveness, brings challenges to themselves and does not realize losing yourself yields into discontentment in
