Inspirational! I know the younger ones are thinking out of the box and this challenges the norm as the older generation knows it to be. It shows constant thinking, constant evolution, constant change and in this day, it is imperative that we constantly strive to develop ourselves, develop ways to pay back, to serve, to contribute. This reduces the tendency to focus solely on ourselves and hopefully the scourge of mental health for as the saying goes “The devil makes use of idle minds and hands”
AdeDayo Atilade- Odunlami, United States of America

 I recommend this book to everyone because it will change your life completely and help you stay focused. The last chapter of this book titled “Thirty-one people on your path,” was a striker for me.

As a pastor, I have had contact with all these categories of people, so I can attest to the life changing power of this book.

“Dear Changemaker” is a soul and thought-provoking piece that will make you the person you thought you could never be.

What struck me about “Dear Changemaker” is the quote “The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.” Dr Efiong is a great personality and an epitome of this quote.

Dreams, visions don’t have an expiration date. It’s never too late or one is never to old to build, grow on a dream or vision they set their minds to. A life without dreams or vision is a life without purpose. That’s what I believe. Esienanwan elaborated well on the subject of purpose and its importance in filling up the void within us that makes us inadequate.
