“Be humble enough to realised that you are not better than anyone else. However, you are a different from all others” –Nkosinathi Bakadela
Overcoming adversities is a book written by Nkosinathi Bakadela, this is a guide to overcoming adversities in different stages of life. Nkosinathi Bakadela says, as human beings we set our own time frames as to what we will achieve, and when we will achieve those particular goals, however life has its own way of playing out.
Nkosinathi Bakadela (30) hails from an area called Matshona in Ntabankulu, he says he has had his own fair share of challenges in life, he shares that he was at a point of giving up academically but he told himself that he will not give up. As a young man Nkosinathi partook in debate societies where one of the teachers pointed out that he would one day become a book writer, from then he says the surge never left him.
Pastor Africa Mhlophe is one of the people who inspired Nkosinathi to write this book, which is set to help people to never give up and pursue their dreams. Overcoming adversities includes quotes from Nkosinathi and life lessons for bringing up children in the way of the Lord. The author says a good foundation does not depart from you not matter how lost you are in life.
In the book Bakadela touches on his idea of what he believes wisdom is, “My belief is that wisdom is a mystery because you don’t get wisdom through studying, but you gain wisdom throughout your life experiences”. –Nkosinathi Bakadela”
Nkosinathi says he wants people to have a positive outlook on life no matter how difficult things might seem.
