Unveiling Your Spark

By Yemisi Adefuwa

How would you describe the state of a man who held a torchlight in his hand and yet, wobbled in the darkness not realizing the usefulness of the torchlight in his hand? Weird and pathetic, right?

This is exactly how it looks when people are oblivious to who they are and what they have. As the popular saying, it is not what you don't have that limit you, but what you have and do not know that you have, and what you know that you have but do not know how to use.

As a young growing girl, Yemisi Adefuwa had suffered the same thing and she had been able to come out of it. Because she knew a lot of people are in similar situations, she decided to write this book where she shared her experiences, knowledge, and useful information on how you too can practically come out of such a pathetic state.

In this book, you will learn how to discover yourself, become the architect of your life, create the future you have always desired, and live a life of fulfilment.

REVIEWS

"Your book is as true as the name. It doesn't only unveil Sparks but knowledge as well. A lot of things our present-day youths are ignorant of are detailed in the book.

The book puts a person who has been too lazy up on his feet. It cancels every excuse and reason one would justify for being unproductive.

It is a must-read. I enjoyed and learned from every bit of it. I must say, I have been challenged to do more.

Thank you for putting this out. God bless You."

Esther Peter

INTRODUCTION

Welcome, great one!

For you to be reading this book, it means that you are one of the very few intellectual and bold persons who make things happen and not just those who watch things happen.

You are not a spectator but a participant!

It shows you have an unquenchable eagerness and curiosity to discover and maximize your abilities which can make you a relevant, sought-after person. 

You have great potentials you have been struggling to unlock, or you are probably not even aware of. Whatever the case, I’m glad you finally got the right keys.  

Here is a quick disclaimer! I want you to know that this book is not the regular 300 pages you were expecting. I have read lots of bulky books with over 500 pages which were no doubt great, but I know how hard I struggled to complete those books.

With this in mind, I decided to make this book concise, hence the few pages.

So, this book is comprised of less than 100 pages and the ideas are expressed in their simplest form for thorough understanding.

Each page of this book carries immense value that I’m sure you can't wait to unpack.

Let me quickly share a story with you before we dive in:

Two men embarked on a two-week journey that required that they pass through a forest. They had only trekked for five days when the battery-powered lamp they carried went off.

They quickly rummaged in their bags for matches to make a fire, only for them to discover that they had not brought any along.

It was a great disaster! 

"Alas! How do we survive in this forest without light?’’ One of the men asked, in despair.

‘’I think all we need is a spark, since we’ve got firewood. But how do we get a spark without a strike? I mean, no matches, no lighter.’’ The second man asked, looking vaguely into the eyes of the other man.

After racking their brains for a while, one of the men saw two stones lying on the ground and immediately remembered his grandmother had once told him that striking two stones together would generate a spark.

He shared the idea with his friend who was indifferent about it. He refused to buy the idea that a stone could generate a spark.

"Can we give it a try? At least, there is no harm in trying.’’ said the other man.

They both agreed to give it a try and after striking for a couple of seconds, they got the spark they needed to produce fire.

At last, they got their firewood burning.

Do you know that a lot of people are stuck in their life’s journey because of you?

Do you know that because you have refused to release your sparks, a lot of people are thrown into darkness?

Okay. Imagine what would
