We are Called - By Abidemi Adebola

“We are called to change the world”

Life is a spiritual journey not in the sense of Religion but in the sense of history, purpose and education. Every man and woman is a spiritual being, the world itself is a spiritual force. In any case the world could have been black and white but we exist and the world is colorful!

What is life itself?

Why do we breathe?

To what end do we live?

This are answers we search for in the Bible, Quran, Monasteries, Edits, scrolls and all. Often times the answers we find in these books are the same answers that life throws at us time and time again.

Life itself is the greatest religion, the greatest teacher, the greatest inspiration and the greatest motivation.

We are called; life is a spiritual journey, we are called; we are a spiritual being. We exist in the context of the past, present and the future. Our thoughts and actions are too interwoven with the past, reality and the future. To isolate humanity is to eliminate mission, vision and ideology.

We are all called! Man and woman, children, the young and the adult, everyone is called and everyone to his or her own calling. No man or woman can find purpose without knowing his or her calling.

If you do not believe you are called you will never discover your purpose, so many people are finding purpose but they have refused to heed the calling.

What is the calling? We are called; the over 7billion people that exist in the world today are called, one by one. We are called to change the world, to make the world better and true to itself.

The basis of our calling is courage, faith, healing, hope, knowledge and love. To the extent that we are far from all this is the extent that we are far from our calling and as such farther away from our purpose.

We live in a very selfish world, a world brutishly inclined towards material progress, we have mistaken passion for purpose and we have mistaken religion for spirituality. Life itself is never an end, if it were it would be endless, life is a means; a means to create a better self and better world! 

We are called!

Every New Year holds promise, as though it is any different from the turn of

Be Loyal to Your Future, Not Your Past

When you stay loyal to a version of yourself that no longer exists—the one who was hurt, the one who failed, the one who was overlooked—you are still choosing. You are choosing to let one moment in time define the whole arc of your life. And that choice costs more than it keeps.

Before the Flood

A tipping point in business is the critical threshold where small, consistent efforts and favourable conditions trigger a much larger market response. It is the point where growth changes character.

The Culture You Ignore Will Cost You Everything

Culture is not static. It is not a problem you solve once and move on from. It is a living,
breathing, constantly evolving dynamic that reflects the collective experience of every
person in your organisation. The question is not whether your culture is changing. It is
whether it is changing in the direction you intend — or drifting somewhere you cannot
afford to go.

The Five Pillars of Public Speaking Mastery: Pillar 5 – STRUCTURE

If you want to hold an audience spellbound, you cannot simply talk at them; you must lead them on a carefully designed psychological journey. Structure is the invisible hand that guides your audience from their current state of mind to the exact destination you want them to reach.

When You Love the Chain That Binds You

The reason Stockholm Syndrome resonated so broadly is because it describes a survival mechanism that human beings deploy, often unconsciously, when they are trapped with a source of both threat and relief.

The Dream I Let Drag: Why I’m Finally Building Eloquence Unfiltered

The driving idea behind Eloquence Unfiltered is simple but radical: public speaking is not about perfection; it is about authenticity. We are moving away from the stiff, corporate rigidity of the past and embracing a raw, unfiltered approach to communication. This event is designed specifically for the modern professional—from the ambitious Gen Z graduate to the mid-level Millennial manager—who needs to command a room, pitch an idea, or simply find their voice in a crowded marketplace.

The Five Pillars of Public Speaking Mastery: Pillar 4 – WORD

Many professionals mistakenly believe that complex language makes them sound more authoritative. In reality, complexity is often a mask for a lack of deep understanding. True mastery is the ability to take a complex idea and explain it so simply that a ten-year-old could understand it, without losing the nuance that a fifty-year-old expert demands.

Connectologists, the Quiet Architects of Influence – Part 2

What makes Connectologists different is not noise, status, or outward performance. In fact, many of them look completely ordinary. They are not always the loudest in the room, the richest at the table, or the most decorated on paper. Yet they carry an invisible force. They bring people together with uncommon ease. They connect people to value.

The Five Pillars of Public Speaking Mastery: Pillar 1 – LOOK

When we talk about “LOOK,” we are not merely discussing whether your suit is tailored or your shoes are polished—though appearance certainly matters. We are talking about your physical presence, your spatial authority, and the non-verbal cues that tell your audience whether you are a leader worth listening to.

The Five Pillars of Public Speaking Mastery: Pillar 2 – TONE

If your LOOK is the foundation of your authority, your TONE is the engine of your influence. Tone is not just about having a “good voice.” It is the strategic manipulation of volume, pitch, pace, and pauses to inject emotion and meaning into your words.
