Director of Investment Banking East Africa “There was very gentle but deep probing into past motivations and reasons asking why are you doing what you are doing, can you remember why you are doing what you are doing. It was an opportunity for a busy person like me to take a step back and understand why I am doing what I do and what are the various influences professional, school, social that affected me.”

CEO AAR “Discovering my purpose through Ignite was not only the three things I set up as my goals, I know very well that the way I plan my day or week has a lot to do with me asking what is purpose of doing this. The course is very broad and is the kind of course I would recommend to literally everybody who wants to manage their time by removing the crap and focusing on the things that make the biggest impact on what you want to achieve. Therefore most of the things I do are founded on finding my purpose and setting my goals the way I was taught by Ignite. It was a blessing in disguise and that was money well spent.”

Environmentalist “It made me feel very peaceful and free, and gave me the ability to go and start putting plans in action, putting things together to achieve the life that I wanted to achieve. Once I can achieve the life that I want to achieve it does not matter whether I’m talking about personal or business, I’m achieving. I think that is what the Discover Your Purpose is.”

We felt that as a couple it was a time to reignite ourselves, to renew our energies and also to plan our future together and that is what Ignite did when we attended the Discover Your Purpose. Our expectation was that it would also help us to chart out way forward as a family as we focus on our careers as well as focus on the different paths we want to take that will bring us together. As a family we believe that to succeed you must first succeed in you home so that you can model that to the rest of the community you work with.“

I’m glad I did the Discover Your Purpose course when I did, having just graduated from university, because I think it is better if you have the tools for life earlier rather than later. That means that I am probably better prepared to deal with the different situations in my life. It has also given me more focus on what I want, so I am less likely to waste time on things that are not important to me.“
