“No matter the obstacles, it is possible to rise above your circumstances and build a life of purpose,” Rihlamvu said.

Living with a disability and having faced significant personal trials, he has never lost hope, relying on determination, persistence and belief in his abilities to navigate life’s hurdles.

The book is designed to help readers reignite their passion, purpose and motivation. It speaks directly to those eager to unlock their full potential and provides practical guidance for turning ambition into reality.

Covering topics ranging from discipline to resilience, Rihlamvu encourages readers to break through mental and emotional barriers and embrace inspired living.

He noted, “I have noticed that many people give up on life and their dreams at the Fst experience of setbacks or failure. They omit to appreciate that the ups and downs of life build our character so we can withstand the serendipities that life can throw our way and emerge victors on the other side”

At 57, Rihlamvu draws from decades of personal experience.

“In my journey, I have come across many pitfalls that would have justified me hanging up the gloves. Yet I soldiered on, having cultivated the resilience inherent within me to surmount the brick walls that were accosting my life” he noted.
