Many people in today's society want to do and be the best they can in order to make a noticeable difference, but somehow, in spite of having the initial zest to stand out, they end up being frustrated as they encounter the usual obstacles that impede progress. The reason that a lot of people go into the grave with their dreams and visions not actualised is because, many hardly understand the roadmap to follow, the process it takes, and the principles to adhere to, in order to succeed in their pursuits. Due to the aforementioned reasons, the book; BE AN ICON was written. BE AN ICON makes you discover how ordinary people became extraordinary in their own styles and uniqueness. It is a 202 page twelve chapter book that has topics like - ordinary people with extraordinary mentalities, change that mindset, what you should do to be resolute, 5 things you must not lose as a visionary, how to set and score lifetime goals, how to develop your skills, etc. On the first chapter, the author gives a vivid description of an icon using different elements such as image, picture, symbol, and so on. He also explained the characteristics of icons. On the second chapter, he used ten individuals (some are dead while others are alive) that have stood out in their endeavours to illustrate how people can be icons in their own capacities. Some of the people used are not public figures, but he deliberately used them to prove that you don't need to be a celebrity to be an icon. On the third chapter, he sounds a very serious warning on the impact of the mindset on the success of any individual. He talked about different types of mindsets, and how they have influenced individuals and societies. Between the fourth and the seventh chapter, he dealt with characters, personal qualities, attributes, focus, positioning, direction, and what you must not lose as a visionary. From the eight to the eleventh chapter are topics that teach you how to. For instance, the author spelt out how to set and score lifetime goals, how to generate ideas and develop them, how to develop your skills, and how icons motivate themselves. On the twelfth chapter, he dealt with strategic networking using the fishnet and a microorganism called Volvox as his basis of illustration. From start to finish, the book motivates, inspires, informs, and educates the reader. On most paragraphs of the book are inspiring quotes that will drive the reader towards achieving his dream and vision. In every dream and vision, there are competitions, but the author advises in this book that, 'To keep up with the competition or even have a competitive advantage, you must keep growing; continuous growth is development. If you don't develop, you'll be overtaken by infants. Then, you will start talking about the good old days. If you have to keep relying on history to prove your relevance, you're dated.
