Being born at the heart of the village, surrounded by so much poverty and limitations, can blur your vision for destiny and affect your mental health in the search for purpose.

The Outstanding Village Boy realised these are just limits set in our minds and can be overcome by consistently doing tiny things such as writing one more line in your diary, going for one more morning run, and meditation to keep the mind focused.

In this groundbreaking book, Simon Gitonga points out how he pulled himself out of dark moments of stress and depression, the snare of suicide, and anxiety troll through self-help techniques. He uncovers that it takes resilience, faith, hope, self-belief, and determination to see beyond the temporary limits.

There are better days ahead of you – I just pray you begin to see.

Destiny has booked a date with you; will you start the journey?
