“The gem cannot be polished without friction, nor man perfected without trials.”- Chinese Proverb God’s Security To Plan and Purpose is a persuasive and robust book by an illustrious businessman and Author Victor Ogunniyi and expertly plotted to inspire, encourage and thrust young entrepreneurs forward into achieving their dreams and aspirations.
Author Ogunniyi has adeptly packaged his unique and priceless experiences as a businessman based in the United States of America, a country perceived by many outsiders as the land of opportunities and opulence. He proudly displays the scars which he acquired in his business journey and candidly showcases them to encourage millions of readers to interpret challenges positively and use them as learning points that give the skills, resilience, and knowledge, necessary for making the right decisions. Further, the writer has infused his chapters with scriptural verses which help accentuate his points on the subject matter, bringing readers to a well nuanced text that informs and encourages right from the comfort of their homes.
As the old saying goes, tough times don’t last but tough people do. The author’s inspiring anecdotes are the perfect depiction of this invaluable adage. His vast record of constant potency and long-suffering in a foreign land will definitely help young business owners control the pain and sorrow which rock many new businesses, sending many on destructive emotional roller coasters. Some of the masterstrokes in this memoir are the benefits reaped from possessing immovable faith, engaging in constant prayer, and having solid trust in God, who the author explicitly portrays as the greatest helper in all of his life’s strains.
Testimonials and endorsements from friends and associates validate the authenticity of his words and proficiency, while further persuading readers to hang on to every statement in this brilliant read. Additionally, I like the way the author highlights the importance of understanding cultural differences and disparities, an essential concept that affects businessmen, especially outside familiar territories.
As readers flip through the pages of this memoir, they are served with a sagacious look into qualities and attributes that make small businesses succeed, such as right discernment, confidence, and leadership, among others. The fifty-plus reflective quotes therein wisely crafted by the author will advise, uplift, motivate as well as challenge the perspective of new entrepreneurs, enabling them to face and interpret the ups-and-downs of business in a better way.
God’s Security To Plan and Purpose is a book that delivers on all fronts, especially in cheering readers to pursue their business ambitions and goals without fear and intimidation, having confidence in the unfailing mercies of God who remains faithful in providing and securing destinies of those who firmly rely on him. Brilliant work Author Ogunniyi!
