Please describe your vision of a world that works for everyone.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

A world that works for everyone is a world where everyone has discovered their purpose and appropriate structure to help individuals discover their purpose, maximize the potential and ultimately fulfill purpose. Given the fact that my tribes are the youth. They are indeed laden with enormous potential and energy that should be groomed and maximized for a better world. My vision is to establish a non-profit organization that would help young minds discover their purpose, identify and maximize their potential and ultimately lead a successful and fulfilled life.<\/span><\/p>\n

What do you see as the most pressing problems facing the world today?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

The biggest tragedy facing the world today is the lack of self-identity, lack of vision, direction and clarity of purpose of the world youths. The number of the world youths today totals over 1.8 billion. Research has proven that 80% of the world youth which represents a huge chunk lacks sense of direction, vision and clarity of purpose. They do not have a clear sense direction as to what exactly they want to do with their life and hence constitute an unimaginable nuisance value. Majority dabble into all sorts of activities, waste ample time only to settle into endeavors that do not maximize or develop their hidden potentials. They get locked up in jobs they are not passionate about and as such get frustrated. Only about 20% of the world youth seems to have a sense of direction, they know what they are passionate about and what direction they want to tow in life. They are self motivated and driven. So therefore, the pressing need facing the world is to begin a conscious re -orientation, mentoring, helping young minds to discover their purpose and establish structures that would help the world youth maximize and express their potential in a positive and beneficial manner to the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

How do you feel these problems could best be solved?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

To solve these problems is to begin a conscious re-orientation, value education and personal development of youths the world over. Young minds can only develop a sense of vision, direction when they have good self-knowledge, when they understand their strength, weakness, abilities and vulnerabilities. Purpose discovery should be included in academic curriculums from elementary levels especially in Africa. Fundamental institutions or organizations should be established to help young minds understand themselves properly, identify their purpose, identify and maximize their potentials. Structures to support these strategies should also be put in place including innovative and creative hubs in major cities with skill acquisition and empowerment centers. Performance and effectiveness metrics as key performance indicators should also be established to monitor and measure the efficiency of the established system.<\/span><\/p>\n
